Implementing Automation for Cisco Service Provider Solutions (SPAUI) 1.0

Course code: SPAUI v1

Duration: 3 Days


Prerequisite:

•    Knowledge equivalent to CCNP Enterprise certification
•    Experience working with Cisco Internetwork Operating System (Cisco IOS®) XE and Cisco IOS XR
•    Service Provider operations experience with routing, Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS), and VPN solutions
•    Hands-on experience with a programming language (specifically Python)
•    Network programmability basics: APIs and protocols, network model-driven APIs and protocols, configuration management with Ansible, and Service Provider network automation workflows

 

Course Description:

The Implementing Cisco Service Provider Automation Solutions (SPAUI) v1.0 course prepares you to implement and support automation solutions in Service Provider network infrastructure, using network programmability principles, protocols, tools, and mechanisms. Through a combination of lessons and hands-on labs, you will learn to deploy, configure, monitor, and operate Service Provider network environments using modern data models. These models allow you to represent operational data and new network management protocols in order to administer hundreds or thousands of devices in a single operation, replacing traditional, time-consuming, error prone, device-by-device command line interface (CLI) management. The course also introduces powerful automation solutions that can streamline network operations.
This course prepares you for the 300-535 Automating Cisco® Service Provider Solutions (SPAUTO) exam
