The Implementing Cisco SD-WAN Solutions (ENSDWI) course trains you 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 examines 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).
The course lab environment is built using Cisco vEdge Cloud routers and Cisco SD-WAN code.
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.
This course will teach you to use Cisco SD-WAN to:
Establish a transport-independent WAN for lower cost and higher flexibility
Meet Service Level Agreements (SLAs) for business-critical and real-time applications
Provide secure 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
