Overview
The Implementing Cisco Enterprise Wireless Networks (ENWLSI) training helps you implement network settings that provide a secure wireless infrastructure and troubleshoot related issues.
This five-day instructor-led training prepares you to secure and implement wireless infrastructure and use Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE), Cisco Prime Infrastructure, Cisco DNA Center, Cisco Spaces and Cisco Connected Mobile Experiences to monitor and troubleshoot network issues.
Hands-on labs reinforce concepts using Cisco Catalyst 9800 Wireless Controller with IOS XE Bengaluru 17.6.3, Cisco DNA Center Release 2.3.3, Cisco Prime Infrastructure Release 3.5, Cisco Spaces, Cisco CMX Release 10.5 and Cisco Identity Services Engine Release 3.0.
This training prepares you for the 300-430 ENWLSI: Implementing Cisco Enterprise Wireless Networks exam. Passing the exam earns the Cisco Certified Specialist – Enterprise Wireless Implementation certification and satisfies the concentration exam requirement for the CCNP Enterprise certification.
The course qualifies for 40 Cisco Continuing Education credits toward recertification.
