Opleiding: Cisco SD-WAN Operation and Deployment [SDWFND-CPLL]
OVERVIEW
Understand foundational concepts, business drivers, and an architectural vision of Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN.
The Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN Operation and Deployment (SDWFND) training provides foundational concepts, business drivers, and an architectural vision of Cisco Catalyst software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN), demonstrating how its core principles enable agile, secure, and cloud-ready WAN solutions to meet modern business demands.
This training also earns you 14 Continuing Education (CE) credits toward recertification.
e-Learning
Interactive self-paced content that provides flexibility in terms of pace, place and time to suit individuals and organisations. These resources also consist of online books, educational podcasts and vodcasts, and video-based learning.
OBJECTIVES
After completing this course, you should be able to:
- Discuss why traditional WANs struggle with modern demands and explain how Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN's architecture and core principles address those challenges
- Identify the main Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN components and explain how their roles and interactions support the overall solution
- Explain and perform secure controller and WAN Edge onboarding using zero-trust principles (ZTP) and secure control channels
- Implement and verify secure data plan operations using IPsec, segmentation, bidirectional forwarding detection (BFD)-based path monitoring, app visibility, and site redundancy
- Configure and verify Overlay Management Protocol (OMP)-based overlay routing, including route advertisement, redistribution, and network segmentation
- Manage Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN device configurations using Configuration Groups, Feature Profiles, Device Templates, and automation workflows for scalable, consistent deployment
- Navigate SD-WAN Manager monitoring dashboards and interpret key metrics and alarms for troubleshooting and operational visibility
- Design and apply centralized and localized policies, including Quality of Service (QoS) and Application Quality of Experience (AppQoE), to control and prioritize traffic across the SD-WAN fabric
- Implement Direct Internet Access (DIA) and cloud optimization features to enhance application experience, traffic flow, and branch security in Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN
