Extreme Switching - Installation and Configuration

This is a 3 day course, part of the New Certification Program : Extreme Certified Professional Training Program

This course is designed as the first step for individuals responsible for the installation, configuration, and management of the Extreme Networks family of ExtremeXOS/SwitchEngine switches.

The ‘Meet Extreme Switching' Welcome Series certification is a mandatory prerequisite and must be completed prior to attending the Extreme Switching - Installation and Configuration class.

You should already possess a solid grasp of LAN concepts, including advanced Ethernet and TCP/IP. 

Upon completion of this course, you will be able to:

• Understand Layer 2 mechanisms and ways to implement and configure them in ExtremeXOS/SwitchEngine devices
• Understand Layer 3 mechanisms and ways to implement and configure them in ExtremeXOS/SwitchEngine devices
• Earn a learning credential on the Professional Programme training path

Students will learn methods to properly deploy and configure their switching and routing environments using the ExtremeXOS/SwitchEngine CLI.

This knowledge will be reinforced through actual hands-on experience with networking equipment in a lab environment, where students will perform real world tasks.
