Building on the DESGN course, the students will learn additional aspects of modular campus and edge network design, including high availability, security, quality of service (QoS), network management, data center, and IP multicast. In addition, the students will be able to design solutions for the network that are strategic to small, medium, and large enterprises, including virtual private networking, wireless, and IP telephony. The course covers issues and considerations for fundamental infrastructure services, including security, network management, QoS, high availability, and bandwidth use optimization through IP multicasting, as well as design models for network solutions such as voice networking and application networking. The course focuses on design concepts based on the new Cisco SONA Architecture, emphasizing that Cisco delivers integrated and embedded services. Strongly suggested prerequisites are: CCNA, CCDA, DESGN, BCMSN, and BSCI. Students would also find the following to be helpful: ISCW, ONT, CVOICE, and BGP. This course is intended for design engineers.
After completing this course the student should be able to:
Introduce the Cisco Service Oriented Network Architecture (SONA) framework, and explain how it addresses enterprise network needs for performance, scalability, and availability.
Describe how the Cisco Enterprise Network model is used in the SONA framework for designing enterprise networks.
Create conceptual, intermediate, and detailed enterprise campus network, and enterprise edge and remote infrastructure designs that offer effective functionality, performance, scalability, and availability.
Create conceptual, intermediate, and detailed intelligent network service designs for network management, high availability, security, QoS, and IP multicast.
Create conceptual, intermediate, and detailed virtual private network designs.
Create conceptual, intermediate, and detailed voice over wireless network designs.
