Duration: 3 Days (24 Hours)
Implementing Automation for Cisco Enterprise Solutions (ENAUI) v1.2 Course Overview:
In the Implementing Automation for Cisco Enterprise Solutions (ENAUI) v1.2 course, you will learn a comprehensive set of skills to implement Cisco Enterprise automated solutions. The course focuses on various key areas, including programming concepts, orchestration, telemetry, and automation tools.
Throughout the course, you will gain a solid understanding of programming concepts relevant to Cisco Enterprise solutions. This includes learning about different programming languages and techniques used in automation.
You will also explore orchestration, which involves coordinating and managing automated tasks and processes in a unified manner. This includes understanding how to design and implement workflows to streamline operations and achieve efficiency.
The course covers telemetry, which involves gathering and analyzing data from network devices to gain insights and make informed decisions. You will learn how to leverage telemetry data to monitor and troubleshoot network performance effectively.
Furthermore, you will be introduced to various automation tools that facilitate the implementation of automated solutions in Cisco Enterprise environments. These tools can include network automation platforms, scripting frameworks, and configuration management systems.
By the end of the course, you will have the necessary knowledge and skills to implement Cisco Enterprise automated solutions, empowering you to optimize network operations and enhance overall efficiency in enterprise environments.
This course highlights the tools and the benefits of leveraging programmability and automation in the Ciscopowered Enterprise Campus and WAN. You will also examine platforms including IOS XE software for devicecentric automation, Cisco DNA Center for the intent-based enterprise network, Cisco Software-Defined WAN,
and Cisco Meraki. Their current ecosystem of APIs, software development toolkits, and relevant workflows are studied in detail together with open industry standards, tools, and APIs, such as Python, Ansible, Git, JSON/YAML, NETCONF/RESTCONF, and YANG. This course also earns you 24 Continuing Education (CE)
credits towards recertification.
