Implementing Cisco Catalyst 9000 Switches (ENC9K) v1.0


Implementing Cisco Catalyst 9000 Switches (ENC9K) v1.0 Certification Training Course Overview

The Implementing Cisco Catalyst 9000 Switches (ENC9K) v1.0 course introduces you to the architecture, capabilities, and implementation of the Cisco® Catalyst® 9000 switching platform. This hands-on course covers many features of this Cisco IOS® XE platform and describes how to manage devices from a single dashboard called Cisco DNA Center™. You will learn how to use the Cisco Catalyst 9000 family of switches to enable Software Defined Access (SD-Access) and provide end-to-end security and automation with centralized management using DNA Center.
