Description

The Routing and Switching Solutions for System Engineers (RSSSE) 2.0 course is focused on design-oriented knowledge that help in selecting optimal network solutions that meet the customer routing and switching requirements. The course starts with an overview of the Cisco Service-Oriented Network Architecture (SONA) and network baseline principles. Cisco advanced technologies and services are described and Cisco products that implement these advanced services are explained in details. The course concludes with the design case study that enables you to build a solution that meets customer requirements, following the design guidelines.

Objectives

• Assess complex technical and business requirements of the customer that influence the selection of a network solution
• Identify advanced technology requirements of the customer and start selecting the relevant Cisco solutions
• Describe and identify the capabilities of Cisco routing and switching solutions
• Design a solution that encompasses the features of advanced routing and switching to meet customer requirements
