What you’ll learn
The Advanced course on Implementing Cisco Nexus 9000 Switches in NX-OS Mode (DCNXA) v1.0 offers comprehensive training on the application and administration of Cisco Nexus® 9000 Series Switches in NX-OS mode. This involves the deployment of Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN) and Ethernet VPN (EVPN) through Cisco Data Center Network Manager (DCNM), the implementation of Multi-Site VXLAN EVPN, and the incorporation of L4-L7 services into the fabric to establish external connectivity, utilizing advanced tenant features. Participants will also gain proficiency in implementing Cisco NX-OS Enhanced Policy-Based Redirect (ePBR) and Intelligent Traffic Director (ITD) features.
