Designing Cisco High Availability Services

Course Status:	Released	Courseware Features
Course Language:	English
Course Duration:	2 Hours
Deployment Options:	Online, Interactive CDs,

Audience

System engineers, network designers, and network engineers responsible for designing enterprise-wide etworks, which support a wide variety of large scale switching, routing, network management, and security infrastructures; individuals working towards the Cisco Certified Design Professional (CCDP) and Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert (CCIE) qualifications

Prerequisites

A comprehensive knowledge of networking and internetworking design, demonstrating competencies equivalent to CCDA level and CCNP level in routing, switching, remote access technologies, access control and communications, security, and network management solutions, including a detailed working knowledge of current technologies, media, protocols, operating systems, and devices

Course Aim

This learning path instructs network designers on how to perform the conceptual and intermediate design of a network infrastructure that supports the desired network solutions over intelligent network services to achieve effective performance, scalability, and availability. It will provide the learner with the fundamental aspects of the network design including QoS, security, network management, fine-tuning routing protocols, switching structures, and IP multicast. It is an online, self-guided path designed to correlate to Cisco's own instructor-led course Designing Cisco Network Services Architectures (ARCH 1.0). ARCH is part of the recommended training path for those students seeking the Cisco Certified Design Professional (CCDP) and Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert (CCIE) qualifications.

Learning Objectives

To define the necessary components of a high availability solution, given specific enterprise availability requirements

Topics Covered

Reviewing high availability features Requirements and architecture for high availability Fault tolerance and hardware redundancy Redundancy and spanning tree protocols Designing high availability enterprise networks Design guidelines for high availability Enterprise Campus guidelines for high availability Case study: Creating a high availability design
