Enterprise Network Design and Virtualization

This course is part of Cisco ENCOR 350-401 Certification Training.

This comprehensive course explores enterprise network design principles and virtualization technologies, equipping IT professionals with essential skills for modern network architecture. Beginning with enterprise architecture fundamentals, students learn to evaluate 2-tier versus 3-tier designs and choose between on-premise and cloud solutions based on business requirements. The curriculum covers critical high-availability features including redundancy protocols and stateful switchover to ensure network resilience. Students gain practical knowledge in wireless network design, addressing client density challenges and implementing effective segmentation strategies. The course then advances to cutting-edge technologies like SD-WAN and SD-Access, providing hands-on implementation experience. Quality of Service mechanisms and policies are covered in depth, ensuring optimal traffic prioritization. The final modules focus on virtualization technologies including hypervisors, virtual switches, VRFs, and secure tunneling protocols like GRE over IPsec and VXLAN, preparing students to design and manage complex virtual network environments.
