Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure (ACI) is one of the industry-leading software-defined networking (SDN) solutions for the Data Center. In INE’s Implementing ACI course, you will learn both the theory and practice of running Cisco’s Nexus 9000 series switches in ACI-mode, from Day-0 initialization of the fabric to Day-1 operations. This course takes a hands-on approach to learning. The vast majority of the course utilizes the Application Centric Infrastructure Controller (APIC) GUI and CLI interfaces for live configuration, verification, and troubleshooting examples.

At the end of this course, students will be able to:
