Prerequisites
There are no prerequisites for this training. However, the knowledge and skills you are recommended to have before attending this training are:
Familiarity with traditional WAN technologies such as MPLS and internet circuits
Working knowledge of Cisco IOS networking and concepts, including Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) routing and IPsec tunnels
Basic understanding of network security concepts and familiarity with operating system interfaces (CLI/GUI) for device interaction
These skills can be found in the following Cisco Learning Offerings:
Implementing and Administering Cisco Solutions (CCNA)
Implementing and Operating Cisco Enterprise Network Core Technologies (ENCOR)
What you will Learn
The Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN Operation and Deployment (SDWFND) training provides foundational concepts, business drivers, and an architectural vision of Cisco Catalyst software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN), demonstrating how its core principles enable agile, secure, and cloud-ready WAN solutions to meet modern business demands.
This training also earns you 14 Continuing Education (CE) credits toward recertification.
Course Objectives
Discuss why traditional WANs struggle with modern demands and explain how Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN's architecture and core principles address those challenges
Identify the main Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN components and explain how their roles and interactions support the overall solution
Explain and perform secure controller and WAN Edge onboarding using zero-trust principles (ZTP) and secure control channels
Implement and verify secure data plan operations using IPsec, segmentation, bidirectional forwarding detection (BFD)-based path monitoring, app visibility, and site redundancy
Configure and verify Overlay Management Protocol (OMP)-based overlay routing, including route advertisement, redistribution, and network segmentation
Manage Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN device configurations using Configuration Groups, Feature Profiles, Device Templates, and automation workflows for scalable, consistent deployment
Navigate SD-WAN Manager monitoring dashboards and interpret key metrics and alarms for troubleshooting and operational visibility
Design and apply centralized and localized policies, including Quality of Service (QoS) and Application Quality of Experience (AppQoE), to control and prioritize traffic across the SD-WAN fabric
Implement Direct Internet Access (DIA) and cloud optimization features to enhance application experience, traffic flow, and branch security in Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN
