This four-day, hands-on course will teach you how to implement and configure Gigamon devices and services. Through this course you will learn the key features of Gigamon devices and the value of properly incorporating a Visibility Fabric into your network monitoring system.
With increasing demands for agility and automation in the IT infrastructure and with ever-changing threat patterns in the network traffic, there is a critical need to automatically detect, react, and respond to these threats while also integrating visibility into IT operations management. This course will teach you how to use Gigamon's technology to gain visibility into your network traffic to prevent these threats.
This course includes extensive lab exercises that will show you how to use most of the capabilities or features available from any H Series node as well as introduce you to the CLI and GUI interfaces. These capabilities and features are present without any additional licenses or special line cards. Theses labs emulate typical working environment where you will add, remove, and modify configurations rather than simply create them.
