SPNGN2 - Building Cisco Service Provider Next-Generation Networks, Part 2 v1.2
SPNGN2 - Building Cisco Service Provider Next-Generation Networks, Part 2 v1.2 Course Details:
In this course, network engineers and technicians will gain the knowledge and skills necessary to implement and support a service provider network. You will focus on using Cisco switches and Cisco routers that are connected in LANs and WANs, and are typically found in the service provider network. You will learn to configure, verify, and troubleshoot the various Cisco networking devices. Through hands-on labs, you will gain practical skills on deploying Cisco IOS/IOS XE and Cisco IOS XR features to operate and support service provider network.
