Course Overview

The need for intent-based networking is growing as more segments of the business depend on reliable, secure digital networks. Cisco DNA Center provides a centralized management dashboard for complete control of this new network. Full automation capabilities for provisioning and change management are enhanced with intelligent analytics that pull telemetry data from everywhere in the network. Applications, services, and users are prioritized based on business goals, within policy parameters and security best practices. Shortcomings in network, application, or device performance are flagged, and instant remediation guidance saves hours of IT troubleshooting. This interconnection of automation and assurance forms a continuous validation-and-verification loop, checking alignment of network operation with business intent.

Cisco DNA Center is an open, extensible platform for streamlining IT workflows and greater business innovation. Cisco DNA Assurance, which is the main component of Cisco DNA Center covered by this training, provides a comprehensive solution to assure better and consistent service levels to meet growing business demands. Assurance addresses not just reactive network monitoring and troubleshooting, but also the proactive and predictive aspects of running the network, ensuring client, application, and service performance. Assurance is a multipurpose, real-time, network data collection and analytics engine that can significantly increase the business potential of network data.

The course qualifies for 30 Cisco Continuing Education Credits (CE).
