The Understanding Cisco SDA Fundamentals (SDAFND) v1.0 course is designed to provide learners with a foundational understanding of Cisco's Software-Defined Access (SD-Access) solution, a key component of the Cisco Digital Network Architecture (Cisco DNA). Through this course, students will gain insight into the architecture, components, and operations of Cisco SD-Access and learn how to use Cisco DNA Center to manage and automate network tasks.

Starting with an SDA training overview in Module 1, learners will explore the concepts, components, and roles within the SD-Access solution. As they progress to further modules, they will delve into the Cisco DNA Center, the heart of Network automation, assurance, and security. They will learn about the solution components like Control plane, Data plane, and Policy plane, and how to integrate Cisco DNA Center with Cisco ISE.

By understanding Cisco SD-Access wireless architecture and Automating network changes with Cisco DNA Center, learners will be equipped to deploy and manage Fabric networks. SDA certification can validate their skills in automating and assuring services across campus and branch networks, thus empowering them to meet modern network challenges effectively.
