WAN Technology Overview & Design Principles

As an Enterprise Networking Design Engineer (or one who aspires to that role), you need to be aware of a variety of WAN technologies as well as their relative strengths and weaknesses. Without this knowledge, you would be unable to make informed choices about connecting your offices via WANs. This course was created to assist you with that goal. In this course (structured around Cisco’s CCNP Enterprise Design certification [ENSLD]), you will become exposed to a great variety of WAN technologies such as Optical WANs (SONET, DWDM, CWDM and more), MPLS, Metro Ethernet, Mobile Wireless WANs and more. You’ll be able to compare and contrast these WAN types, differentiate between different types of VPN models, as well as learn helpful tips related to selecting and designing WANs.
