Description
The Configuring the Cisco Nexus Data Center Transport (CCNDC-T) v2.0 Virtual Training Services (VTS) offering is a 2-day course that introduces the learners to the designing and configuring a data center network to support a virtual computing environment (VCE). Using the Cisco Nexus family of products, the learner constructs a highly available and modular network infrastructure that can be used to provide virtualized cloud-based services. The learner learns about configuring the Cisco Nexus 2000 Series Fabric Extenders, and Cisco Nexus 5000 and 7000 Series Switches into a scalable data center network.
