Course Overview
The Transforming to a Cisco Intent-Based Network (IBNTRN) training teaches you the functionality of Cisco® SD-Access. Through a combination of lessons and hands-on learning, you will practice deploying, operating, and managing SD-Access networks using Cisco Catalyst Center. You will learn how Cisco delivers intent-based networking across the campus, branch, WAN, and extended enterprise and ensures that your network is operating as intended. You will explore Cisco Catalyst Center automation and assurance features, build wired and wireless fabric networks, implement segmentation and guest access, deploy multi-site and multicast services, migrate existing networks to SD-Access, and use Cisco Catalyst Center to troubleshoot common SD-Access issues.
