Note: the lab component has been removed from this course. However, this course still retains value as a training resource.
This advanced CCIE Enterprise training prepares you for the practical portions of the CCIE Enterprise exam by guiding you through hands-on scenarios similar to the ones you may face on the exam.
The CCIE Enterprise Infrastructure certification sits near the top of Cisco's pyramid of certifications and knowledge, and represents the pinnacle of a network engineer's efforts at mastery over their career field. A network engineer looking to earn their CCIE Enterprise Infrastructure will need to pass the qualifying exam, 350-401, and the lab exam, CCIE Enterprise Infrastructure v1.0.
The exam tests your knowledge of enterprise networking infrastructures. Passing it is difficult and requires deep knowledge of advanced enterprise network concepts like Layer 2 connectivity, Spanning Tree Protocol, External Border Gateway Protocol, and much more. The lab will test your comfort and familiarity with working with those concepts in a real-world setting.
For managers with Cisco products, this Cisco training can be used for CCIE Enterprise exam prep, onboarding new network engineers, individual or team training plans, or as a Cisco reference resource.
