The Cisco SD-WAN Operation and Deployment (ENSDW) v1.0 course provides an overview of the Cisco® Software-Defined WAN (SD-WAN) solution and SD-WAN components. You will learn how to create, manage, and operate a secure extensible network using Cisco SD-WAN products. The course covers how to configure, operate, and monitor overlay routing in a secure extensible network. In addition, you will learn about policies and Quality of Service (QoS) in the SD-WAN overlay network.
The Cisco SD-WAN solution is a cloud-delivered overlay WAN architecture that facilitates digital and cloud transformation for enterprises. Cisco SD-WAN significantly reduces WAN costs and time to deploy new services. With Cisco SD-WAN, you can build a robust security architecture that’s crucial for hybrid networks and provides a strong policy framework.
After taking this course, you should be able to:
-
Identify the various components and architecture of the Cisco SD-WAN solution
-
Deploy vEdge routers in a secure extensible network
-
Create templates to aid in the deployment and operation of the secure extensible network
-
Configure and verify overlay routing in the secure extensible network
-
Create simple policies to control traffic flow in the secure extensible network
How you’ll benefit
This class will help you learn to use Cisco SD-WAN to:
-
Establish transport-independent WAN for lower cost and higher diversity
-
Meet SLAs for business-critical and real-time applications
-
Provide end-to-end segmentation for protecting critical enterprise compute resources
-
Extend seamlessly into the public cloud
-
Optimize the user experience for Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) applications
