Designing Cisco Enterprise Networks (ENSLD)

The Designing Cisco Enterprise Networks (ENSLD) training deepens your knowledge of designing enterprise networks. Topics covered include enterprise network design, including protocols and media for wired and wireless networks, SD-Access, VPN, Quality of Service (QoS), IPv6, and network programmability.

 

This training earns you 40 Continuing Education (CE) credits towards recertification and helps prepare you to take the 300-420 Designing Cisco Enterprise Networks (ENSLD) exam, which is part of the CNP Enterprise, Cisco Certified Specialist - Enterprise Design certification. 

 

After you pass the ENSLD 300-420 exam: 

• You earn the Cisco Certified Specialist - Email Content Security certification.
• You will have satisfied the concentration exam requirement for the new CCNP Enterprise certification. To complete your CCNP Enterprise certification, you must pass the Implementing Cisco Enterprise Network Core Technologies (350-401 ENCOR) exam or its equivalent.
