Résumé du cours
This 4-day, Hands-on Workshop on Understanding, Configuring, and Managing the 9800 series Controllers and integrating them into DNAC (Cisco Digital Network Architecture) focuses on providing participants with practical knowledge and skills to effectively deploy and operate Cisco's 9800 series Controllers within a DNAC environment, including wired and wireless networking.
The workshop begins with an overview of the Cisco 9800 series Controllers and their capabilities, highlighting the benefits of using DNAC for centralized management and automation. Participants learn about the key features and architecture of the 9800 series Controllers, including advanced capabilities such as security, and high availability.
The workshop then delves into the configuration and management aspects of the 9800 series Controllers. Participants gain hands-on experience in configuring various aspects of the 9800 Controllers, such as VLANs, security policies, WLANs, Policy, TAGS and Troubleshooting
Another major focus of the workshop is the integration of the 9800 series Controllers into DNAC. Participants explore the capabilities of DNAC for network provisioning, monitoring, and troubleshooting. They learn how to use DNAC's intuitive interface to deploy and manage the Controllers efficiently, ensuring consistent network policies and configurations across the infrastructure.
Throughout the workshop, participants engage in practical lab exercises and real-world scenarios to reinforce their understanding of the concepts and technologies. They also have the opportunity to troubleshoot common network issues and explore best practices for maintaining a reliable and scalable network infrastructure.
