In addition to knowledge of Cisco data center formats, the attendee must also be aware of the basic knowledge of fibre channel and storage networking. This class is not a prerequisite for any other Cisco training course.
Who should attend:
Experienced network field engineers should attend this course in order to complete their Cisco training who have working knowledge on how to implement layer 2 and layer 3 services, as well as how to use Cisco IOS as well as Cisco Catalyst switching platforms.
Course Description:
This course will complete the Cisco training for the experienced network field engineers, teaching them how to further their career by learning all the other components of Cisco training, including features of the Nexus 7010 Chassis, the architecture of NX-OS system, connectivity of the Cisco management processor and learn how to configure features like the call home feature, AAA and RBAC. In addition, this course will also provide the attendee the knowledge to use configurations checkpoints and rollbacks, layer 2 and layer 3 as well as supervisory recovery. The network engineer will also learn valuable features such as how to configure traffic integrity features, control pane protection and LinkSec encryption.
In addition to the previous features, the attendee will also gain the knowledge to advance their career by learning the details of using SPAN and ethernizer to monitor traffic to websites and phone lines, showing the company how well the systems are working in order to tailor the system to the traffic the company needs.
The interactive lab exercises help the attendee to have actual hands on training in all aspects of the course. The attendee must bring a laptop with Windows Vista or older, and it must have the ability to install new Active X components as well, in order to complete the remote interactive lab exercises. These labs will offer the attendee additional knowledge on the Nexus 7000 and the Nexus 5000 with extensive training specifically on Managing system configuration, layer 2 switching, redundancy protocols, configuring routing protocols, VDC and VRF interoperation as well as security and troubleshooting on the Nexus control plane. Other interactive remote labs include analyzing the FCoE packet traces, configuring the Nexus 5000 for administrative access and FCoE connectivity, as well as configuring the Nexus 5000 in NPV mode and traffic and engineering. This course also covers the material required to configure the Nexus 2000 as a remote line card, configure the Nexus 2000 with VPC and how to configure and monitor the various security features of the Nexus system. The other lab work includes how to troubleshoot the FCoE issues on the Nexus 5000 switch.
This course will advance the engineer in all aspects of the Nexus 5000 and the Nexus 7000 systems, and complete the Cisco training for their profession. Upon successful completion of this course, the engineer will be able to advance their career by providing proof that the course was completed, verifying their knowledge of the systems. This course includes labs which enhance the learning experience by giving the attendee hands on training, ensuring both the attendee and the company the attendee has successfully learned all of the information offered. When using hands on training, in conjunction with the classroom experience, the information given will be better processed by the attendee, allowing them to better understand the extensive knowledge provided in the class.

Testimonials:
"The instructor was excellent, his teaching style and re-enforcing the topics with examples worked well . It has been the best training I have ever had including location of the hotel to the training room, the food service (very good too) that saved many hours a day and the equipment was perfect for the tasks required of it. Getting out of class at 10:30pm and being able to walk over to the room and starting the studying at 10:45pm was such a big help. Was it easy? Not at all, it took discipline before the class (on-line sessions) 45+ hours and during the class. I went to bed at 1am or later each night and was up a going by 5:30am every day. Was I tired each day? Yeah but I signed up for a Boot Camp not a Skillpath Happy Hour. I got to catch up on my sleep Saturday PM AFTER I had the two exams passed!! Also the staff were exceptional; responsive and handled everything right away."
