The Cisco Data Centers | VXLAN EVPN course aims to provide a resource for network engineers to understand and deploy VXLAN EVPN technology for today’s data centers and to help CCIE/CCNP Data Center (v3.1) certification candidates prepare well for their exams.
This VXLANEVPN course begins with an introduction to the current data center challenges before going into the technology building blocks. It also provides an overview of the evolution of the data center fabric.
The VXLAN EVPN course takes a deep dive into the various fabric semantics, including the underlay, control plane & data plane interaction, unicast and multicast forwarding flows, and external data center interconnect deployments.
This VXLANEVPN content has been designed with a broad audience in mind while specifically targeting Cisco certification candidates, network architects, engineers, and operators. You do not have to be a networking professional or data center administrator to benefit from this course.
This VXLANEVPN material is an authoritative guide for network professionals with an in-depth understanding of various networking areas, explaining detailed control and data plane concepts, with VXLAN and BGP EVPN being the primary focus. Detailed packet flows are presented, covering numerous functions, features, and deployments.
This professional development and foundational learning course contains the following:
High-quality, technical on-demand videos cover all essential topics.
Lab demos for better implementation understanding.
Quizzes for knowledge review.
Workbook for practical exercises (helps for CCIE LABDOO questions).
External resources that allow you to extend your knowledge.
Packet captures that enable a deep understanding of VXLAN encapsulation.
