The Designing Cisco Enterprise Networks (ENSLD) course provides in-depth knowledge and practical skills required to design complex enterprise networks.
This training covers a wide range of topics, including advanced addressing and routing solutions, enterprise campus networks, WAN design, security services, and software-defined access (SDA).
Participants will engage in hands-on labs, exercises, and real-world scenarios to enhance their understanding of modern enterprise network design. The course prepares learners for the 300-420 ENSLD exam, which is part of the CCNP® Enterprise and Cisco Certified Specialist – Enterprise Design certifications. Additionally, participants can earn 40 Continuing Education (CE) credits towards Cisco recertification.
Participants should have:
- CCNA® certification or equivalent knowledge
- Familiarity with network fundamentals, LAN connectivity, and enterprise networking principles
Courses such as Implementing and Operating Cisco Enterprise Network Core Technologies (ENCOR) can help meet the prerequisites.
