Implementing Automation for Cisco Enterprise Solutions (ENAUI)

Description

The Implementing Automation for Cisco Enterprise Solutions (ENAUI) training teaches you how to implement Cisco Enterprise automated solutions, including programming concepts, orchestration, telemetry, and automation tools. This training highlights the tools and the benefits of leveraging programmability and automation in the Cisco-powered Enterprise Campus and wide-area network (WAN). You will also examine platforms including IOS XE software for devicecentric automation, Cisco DNA Center for the intent-based enterprise network, Cisco software-defined WAN, and Cisco Meraki.
This training prepares you for the Automating and Programming Cisco Enterprise Solutions (300-435 ENAUTO) v1.0 exam. If passed, you earn the Cisco Certified DevNet Specialist – Enterprise Automation and Programmability certification and satisfy the concentration exam requirement for the Cisco Certified Network Professional (CCNP) Enterprise and Cisco Certified DevNet Professional certifications. This training also earns you 24 Continuing Education (CE) credits toward recertification.

How you’ll benefit
This training will help you:
• Gain high-demand skills using modern programming languages, application programming interface (APIs), and systems such as Python, Ansible, and Git to automate, streamline, and enhance business operations
• Acquire the skills and knowledge to customize tools, methods, and processes that improve network performance and agility
• Prepare for the 300-435 ENAUTO v1.0 exam
• Earn 24 CE credits toward recertification
