Course Description
The new CCNP Enterprise certification program prepares you for today’s professional-level job roles in enterprise networking technologies. CCNP Enterprise now includes automation and programmability to help you scale your networking infrastructure.
One of the industry’s most respected certifications, CCNP validates the core knowledge you need while giving you the flexibility to choose a focus area. Achieving CCNP Enterprise certification proves your skills with enterprise networking solutions. To earn CCNP Enterprise certification, you will pass two exams: one that covers core enterprise technologies (ENCOR 350-401) and one enterprise concentration exam (ENARSI 300-410).
· Implementing Cisco Enterprise Network Core Technologies (ENCOR 350-401)
· Implementing Cisco Enterprise Advanced Routing and Services (ENARSI 300-410)
Objectives
To earn CCNP Enterprise, you will pass two exams: a core exam and a concentration exam of your choice.
• The core exam, Implementing and Operating Cisco Enterprise Network Core Technologies
(350-401 ENCOR) focuses on your knowledge of enterprise infrastructure including dual-stack (IPv4
and IPv6) architecture, virtualization, infrastructure, network assurance, security, and automation.
You can prepare for this exam by taking the training course, Implementing and Operating Cisco
Enterprise Network Core Technologies (ENCOR).
- The core exam is also the qualifying exam for CCIE Enterprise certification. Passing this exam
helps toward earning both of these certifications
• Concentration exams focus on emerging and industry-specific topics such as network design,
SD-WAN, wireless, and automation. You can prepare for concentration exams by taking corresponding
Cisco training courses. Choose your CCNP Enterprise concentration exam from these options:
- Implementing Cisco Enterprise Advanced Routing and Services v1.0 (300-410 ENARSI)
- Implementing Cisco SD-WAN Solutions (300-415 ENSDWI)
- Designing Cisco Enterprise Networks (300-420 ENSLD)
- Designing Cisco Enterprise Wireless Networks (300-425 ENWLSD)
- Implementing Cisco Enterprise Wireless Networks (300-430 ENWLSI)
- Automating and Programming Cisco Enterprise Solutions (300-435 ENAUTO) Agenda
