DNAIE - Cisco Digital Network Architecture Implementation Essentials v2.0 - On-Demand Course

The Cisco Digital Network Architecture Implementation Essentials (DNAIE) course is a 5-day course that is designed to provides students an insight into Cisco Digital Network Architecture (DNA) architecture and its solution components by highlighting the need for digitization in networks and the guiding principles of DNA.

The focus of the course is on the implementation of the following DNA solution components:

• Automation using Cisco APIC-EM and its built in applications like Plug and Play, EasyQoS, IWAN, and Path Trace.
• Virtualization in Enterprise Branch Network using Cisco Enterprise Network Function Virtualization (NFV) Solution.

• Identifying the Digital Network Architecture solution by describing the vision, strategy, general concepts, and components of it
• Implementing network automation using Cisco APIC-EM and the built-in applications like Network Plug and Play, EasyQoS, IWAN, and Path Trace
• Implementing network virtualization using Cisco Network Function Virtualization in Enterprise branch network
• Implementing network analytics using Cisco Connected Mobile Experience (CMX) cloud
• Implementing network security using Cisco StealthWatch, Cisco TrustSec and Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE)

• Experienced network engineers working for Enterprise customers who are early adopters of Cisco's Digital Network Architecture
• Channel Partner Field Engineers who are supporting trials and early deployments of DNA
