Cisco Enterprise Network Core
Technologies v1.3 ENCOR
Duration
5 Days

The Implementing and Operating Cisco Enterprise Network Core

Technologies (ENCOR) v1.3 training gives you the knowledge and skills
needed to install, configure, operate, and troubleshoot an enterprise
network and introduces you to overlay network design by using SD-
Access and SD-WAN solutions. You’ll also learn to understand and
implement security principles and automation and programmability
within an enterprise network. This course also prepares you for the 350-
401 Implementing Cisco Enterprise Network Core Technologies (ENCOR)
exam.

Who Should Attend

Mid-level network engineers, Network administrators, Network support technicians, Help desk technicians
