Implementing and Configuring the Cisco Nexus 5000 and 6000 Switches

Duration: 3 Days Course Code: ICNX5-6K Version: 1.0 Delivery Method: Virtual Learning

Overview:

This course is delivered in partnership between Global Knowledge and Firefly Education. This partnership has enabled the Cisco market toconduct training on the latest technology addressing business relevant issues and is constantly invested in, to keep the materials up to date ofany changes that happen.In this 3-day course, you will learn how to implement access layer infrastructures, using next-generation Cisco Nexus 5000 and 6000 SeriesSwitches and Nexus 2000 Fabric Extenders and their use cases. This course provides a technical overview with focus on the Nexus 5000 and6000 platform features, design guidelines, deployment, and operations, including Fibre Channel over Ethernet, Layer 2, Layer3, QoS,management, and security. You will explore the features of NX-OS up to release 6.0(2N2.1) of the Nexus platform by performing hands-on labsusing real Nexus 5500 and Nexus 2000 labs. Labs include basic FCoE configuration, NPV mode deployment, FEX and Virtual PortChannelconfiguration, security features, and monitoring, configuring Cisco Adapter-FEX and FabricPath.

Virtual Learning

This interactive training can be taken from any location, your office or home and is delivered by a trainer. This training does not have anydelegates in the class with the instructor, since all delegates are virtually connected. Virtual delegates do not travel to this course, GlobalKnowledge will send you all the information needed before the start of the course and you can test the logins.

Target Audience:

This course is designed for experienced data center engineers who are familiar with Cisco Catalyst or MDS switching products.

Objectives:

Identify the architecture, features, and benefits provided by Cisco Describe the technology benefits and challenges of 40G and 100GNexus 5000 Switches and how these differ from the Nexus 3000 Ethernet in the data centerSeries in the most common user situations

Discuss the Nexus 6000 and 5000 enhanced networking featuresDescribe in detail the Cisco Nexus 6000 Switch architecture anddata forwarding

Describe the key management features of Cisco NX-OS on theCisco Nexus 6000 and 5000 and upgrading / downgrading system

Identify the benefits and features provided by the different softwaremodels of the Cisco Nexus 2000 Fabric Extenders in the mostcommon user situations, and explain how the switch works toprovide these benefits

Describe how to manage and configure QoS in the network, usingthe Cisco Nexus 6000 and 5000 Series Switches

Describe Fibre Channel networks, frames, flow control, and thevarious protocols used with Fibre Channel, and identify thestandard fabric services and their well-known addresses Describe network design and switch configuration options for

reducing network threats and preventing unauthorized changes inconfiguration

Describe how FCoE operates within SAN and LAN environments,identify the hardware components of an FCoE implementation,and explain the options available Explain how to use FCoE and Ethernet features and management

tools for identifying switch and network problems

Identify the configuration options provided on Cisco Nexus 6000and 5000 Switches and explain how to provision, move, add, andchange Fibre Channel and Ethernet ports
