COTI – Cisco Optical Technology Intermediate

COTI - Cisco Optical Technology Intermediate

COURSE OUTLINE:

Description

In this course, you will learn how to perform node turn-up. The course covers three shelf types-the M12, M6, and M2. You will learn how to deploy linear and ring dense wavelength-division multiplexing (DWDM) topologies. Additionally, you will learn about multiplexer-demultiplexer cards, Erbium-doped fiber amplifier cards, Raman amplifiers, transponder cards, and the newest Cisco Any Rate muxponder and crossponder cards. These cards are used in terminal, amplifier, and reconfigurable optical add-drop multiplexer (ROADM) node configurations. You will learn how to configure wavelength selective switch (WSS) linear and single-module ROADM (SMR) rings. This course covers 10-GB unprotected circuits and 10-GB protection using Y-cable, optical channel transport unit-2 (OTU-2), and protection switch module (PSM) cards.

Introduction to Cisco ACI

Some of the characteristic challenges that you may experience with a classic data center include time-consuming application deployment, error-prone switch-by-switch configuration, and problematic application performance monitoring. Cisco ACI helps resolve these typical data center issues by significantly reducing customer application deployment time and improving IT alignment with business objectives and policy requirements.

In this course, you will practice developing essential skills for setting up a basic Cisco ACI Fabric. You will discover how data center components correspond to ACI Fabric components, and you will gain a deeper knowledge of the operation of an EPG, bridge domain, VRF, AEP, and many other features of ACI through the process of configuring a basic ACI Fabric. Hands-on labs will guide you through basic steps to set up switches, group devices by application, apply policy at an application level, and give application level visibility for troubleshooting. By the end of this class, you will have a strong fundamental foundation to help you further develop your ACI admin abilities, such as troubleshooting issues that could arise
