DNAIE v2.0 - Digital Network Architecture Implementation Essentials

The DNAIE - Digital Network Architecture Implementation Essentials v2.0 course highlights the need for digitization in networks and the guiding principles of DNA. The course focuses on implementation of the following DNA solution components:

• Automation using Cisco APIC-EM and its built in applications like Plug and Play, EasyQoS, IWAN and Path Trace
• Virtualization in Enterprise Branch Network using Cisco Enterprise Network Function Virtualization (NFV) Solution
• Analytics using Cisco Connected Mobile Experiences (CMX) cloud
• Security using Cisco StealthWatch, Cisco TrustSec and CiscoIdentity Services Engine (ISE)
• Enterprise Network Fabric

The DNAIE course also provides hands-on-labs to demonstrate DNA automation using Cisco APIC-EM and virtualization using Cisco NFV.
