Overview

The Implementing Cisco Enterprise Wireless Networks (ENWLSI) training helps you implement network settings to provide a secure wireless network infrastructure and troubleshoot any related issues. The goal of this 5-day instructor-led training is to prepare you to secure and implement the wireless infrastructure, and use Cisco Identity Service Engine (ISE), Cisco Prime Infrastructure (PI), Cisco DNA Center, Cisco Spaces, and Cisco Connect Mobile Experience to monitor and troubleshoot network issues. This training provides you with hands-on labs to reinforce concepts including deploying Cisco Catalyst 9800 Wireless Controller Release IOS XE Bengaluru 17.6.3, Cisco Digital Network Architecture (DNA) Center Release 2.3.3, Cisco Prime Infrastructure Release 3.5, Cisco Spaces, Cisco CMX Release 10.5, features, and Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) Release 3.0. This training prepares you for the 300-430 ENWLSI: Implementing Cisco Enterprise Wireless Networks exam. If passed, you earn the Cisco Certified Specialist Enterprise Wireless Implementation certification and satisfy the concentration exam requirement for the CCNP Enterprise certification. The course qualifies for 40 Cisco Continuing Education credits (CE) towards recertification. This course will help you:

  • Use Cisco Identity Services Engine, Cisco Prime Infrastructure, and Cisco Connect Mobile Experience to streamline network management, improve operations efficiency, and enhance consistency of network services

Reviews

The exit certified aws course provided a good introduction to the tools available on aws.

Instructor knew her stuff. Long time in the industry. Course was easy to follow and very informative.

This is my second course with ExitCertified. This course exceeded my expectations. The teacher was great and the class was fun.

Concise and good to follow along. Although it is a lot to take in under a short period of time.

Great instructor, clear and concise course. Labs were easy to follow and worked perfectly.
