IMPLEMENTING CISCO NEXUS 9000 SWITCHES IN NX-OS MODE - ADVANCED course. DCNXA.

The Implementing Cisco Nexus 9000 Switches in NX-OS Mode – Advanced (DCNXA) course provides advanced training in applying and managing the Cisco Nexus® 9000 Series Switches in NX-OS mode.

The Cisco® NX-OS platform deploys Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN) and Ethernet VPN (EVPN) using Cisco Data Center Network Manager (DCNM), implements Multi-Site VXLAN EVPN, and integrates L4-L7 services into the fabric providing external connectivity, utilizing advanced tenant features. You will also learn how to implement Cisco NX-OS Enhanced Policy-Based Redirect (ePBR) and Intelligent Traffic Director (ITD) features.

After completing this course you should be able to:

• Configure VXLAN EVPN in a single site using Cisco DCNM

• Configure a Multi-Site VXLAN EVPN

• Configure L4-L7 service redirection

• Configure external connectivity from a VXLAN EVPN

• Configure tenant-level features and Tenant-Routed Multicast (TRM) in VXLAN EVPN

• Configure Cisco NX-OS Enhanced Policy-Based Redirect (ePBR) and Intelligent Traffic Director (ITD)
