With Cisco SD-WAN, you can build a robust security architecture that’s crucial for hybrid networks and provides a strong policy framework.
DNA Center and SD-Access Training (SDAINT)
DNA Center and SD-Access offer Cisco’s next-generation programmable digital network to help automate common network access security features and streamline the redundant, complex configuration required to allow different groups of users access to the network infrastructure. This network security training course allows network administrators to quickly allow differentiated access for end users on the network while allowing the network to react automatically to day zero and other types of attacks. Students who enroll in this course should have a basic understanding of Cisco CCNA Routing & Switching, of Software Defined Networks, and have experience with Cisco IOS, IOS XE, and CLI.

Implementing Cisco SD-WAN Solutions (ENSDWI)
The Implementing Cisco SD-WAN Solutions (ENSDWI) v2.0 course gives you training about how to design, deploy, configure, and manage your Cisco® Software-Defined WAN (SD-WAN) solution in a large-scale live network, including how to migrate from legacy WAN to SD-WAN. You will learn best practices for configuring routing protocols in the data center and the branch, as well as how to implement advanced control, data, and application-aware policies. The course also covers SD-WAN deployment and migration options, placement of controllers, how to deploy WAN Edge devices, and how to configure Direct Internet Access (DIA) breakout. The course looks at the different Cisco SD-WAN security options available, such as application-aware enterprise firewall, Intrusion Prevention System (IPS), URL filtering, Cisco Advanced Malware Protection (AMP), Secure Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security (SSL/TLS) proxy, and Cisco Umbrella® Secure Internet Gateway (SIG). This course helps you prepare to take the Implementing Cisco SD-WAN Solutions (300-415 ENSDWI) exam which is part of the CCNP® Enterprise certification. You will also earn 32 Continuing Education (CE) credits toward recertification.
Installing, Configuring, Monitoring and Troubleshooting Cisco (Viptela) SDWAN (SDWAN-CT)
In this 5-day hands-on up-to-date course on Cisco (Viptela) SD-WAN, students will learn how to administer SD-WAN. Students will learn about deploying and configuring SD-WAN Controllers, vEdge Devices, and Cisco IOS-XE Devices. Students will learn how to manage the vManage Interface, along with the change in the interface in 20.6 and above. Students will learn about Device Template, Feature Template, Configuration Groups and CLI Templates. Student will learn how to tune OMP, BFD, TLOCs, QoS, TCP OPT, DRE, FEC, Packet Duplication. Students will learn how SD-WAN implements Security using SASE, SIG, Umbrella, FW, IPS, AMP, Threat grid, TLS Decryption and Direct Internet Access (DIA). Students will learn about Local and Central Policies. Students will also learn how Cisco SD-WAN allows Enterprises to deploy an effective Cloud Solutions such as Amazon AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud, MegaPort, Equinix, and SAAS application such as O365 and Webex. Students will also learn how to Monitor and Troubleshoot the SDWAN Solution.
NSO Advanced for Python Programmers (NSO300)
The Cisco Network Services Orchestrator (NSO) Advance Python Programmers (NSO300) v4.0 course continues the learning journey of the NSO Essentials for Programmers and Network Architects (NSO201) v4.0 course with NSO to include customizing templates with Python programming, Docker deployment, and Nano services. You will learn to create advanced services using the NSO application framework and Python scripting with both new and existing Layer 3 Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) VPN services. You will also learn how to manage and scale these services to reduce operation consumption, and increase both security and available physical space, since virtualized network functions (VNFs) replace physical hardware. You will use Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) orchestration features, and Cisco Elastic Services Controller (ESC) to manage virtualized network functions.

Software Defined Access and ISE Integration (SDAISE)
SD-Access is Cisco’s Next Generation campus networking solution that simplifies management, automation, and improves security implications. Who (People), what (Devices), when (Time) and where (Location) are questions we would like answered when working with users and devices! These questions are answered within a single pane of glass known as the Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE). Once users and devices are identified we often segment these groups for management purposes. Cisco's Digital Networks Architecture Center (DNAC) is a means of configuring and maintaining that segmentation using software defined access. DNA Center is not limited to configuration changes. DNA Center also provides a policy-based approach to services that support the network such as NTP, DNS, DHCP. In this course, you integrate ISE and DNAC which gives you the ability to manage physical devices, logical segmentation, IP, transport rules as well as Authentication, Authorization and Accounting (AAA) of users and devices along with an overview and introduction to SD-Access and DNA Center.
