DNAC Activation and Assurance (DNACAA)

 

Course Overview

This is a 4-day instructor led workshop aimed at Cisco partners and customers who are/have deployed Cisco DNA / Catalyst Center. This class will help enable Cisco DNA / Catalyst Center adoption in a brownfield environment utilizing Assurance as a feature to manage and troubleshooting both a wired and wireless environment, followed by migrating to Software Defined Access for both Wired and Wireless.

This workshop will be a mix of theory (30%) and labs (70%) and is aimed at a technical audience. Theory based on latest version of DNA – continually updated content to reflect the latest version of the product.

The DNACAA course is part of Cisco Black Belt Academy Aligned Content. It belongs to the stage: EN - Cisco DNA Deployment Stage 2.
