Cisco CCNP Enterprise Certification Training Course

Course Overview

The Cisco Certified Network Professional (CCNP) Enterprise Certification Training Course with Accumentum is tailored for seasoned network professionals aiming to deepen their expertise in managing complex enterprise networks. This advanced course encompasses a comprehensive curriculum that covers dual-stack architecture, virtualization, infrastructure, network assurance, security, and automation. Participants will master the intricacies of enterprise networking through hands-on labs that simulate real-world scenarios, preparing them for both the ENCOR (Implementing and Operating Cisco Enterprise Network Core Technologies) core exam and one of several concentration exams, such as ENARSI (Implementing Cisco Enterprise Advanced Routing and Services) or ENAUTO (Automating and Programming Cisco Enterprise Solutions). This training not only equips you with the skills to configure, troubleshoot, and secure enterprise networks but also ensures you’re ready to tackle the evolving challenges of modern networking environments.

Course Objectives

Gain advanced knowledge in implementing and operating Cisco’s core technologies for enterprise networks, including dual-stack (IPv4/IPv6), virtualization, and infrastructure.
Learn to secure enterprise networks effectively, implement network assurance solutions, and troubleshoot using advanced tools and methodologies.
Develop skills in automating network tasks with tools like Python, REST APIs, and Cisco’s DNA Center, enhancing network operation efficiency and scalability.
Focus on one or more concentration areas such as advanced routing (ENARSI), network design (ENSLD), or automation (ENAUTO), to customize your professional skill set according to industry demands.

Who Should Attend

Professionals looking to deepen their expertise and validate their skills in complex enterprise network environments.
Individuals involved in planning, designing, and optimizing enterprise networks who seek certification to affirm their advanced capabilities.
Those managing network teams or infrastructure who need to stay ahead of evolving network technologies and practices.
Anyone with a CCNA or equivalent experience aiming to move into higher-level roles in network engineering, security, or automation within an enterprise setting.

Prerequisites

A solid foundation in network fundamentals, equivalent to the CCNA level, is essential for understanding the advanced concepts covered in the CCNP curriculum.
At least one to three years of experience in network installation, configuration, operation, and troubleshooting to grasp the practical applications of the technologies discussed.
Hands-on experience or theoretical knowledge of working with Cisco’s operating systems to handle the configuration and management tasks in the course.
A grasp of fundamental security principles and rudimentary scripting or automation concepts to leverage the advanced topics in network security and automation.
