Overview
The duration of this course is 20 hours, and it is eligible for 24 CE credits towards recertification.
The Implementing Automation for Cisco Service Provider Solutions (SPAUI) training prepares you to implement and support automation solutions in a Service Provider network infrastructure, using network programmability principles, protocols, tools, and mechanisms. Through a combination of lessons and hands-on labs, you will learn to deploy, configure, monitor, and operate Service Provider network environments using modern data models. These models allow you to represent operational data and new network management protocols to administer hundreds or thousands of devices in a single operation, replacing traditional, time-consuming, error prone, device-by-device Command Line Interface (CLI) management. The training also introduces powerful automation solutions that can streamline network operations.
This training covers Yet Another Next Generation (YANG) data models and validation tools, Representational State Transfer Configuration Protocol RESTCONF and Network Configuration Protocol (NETCONF) management protocols, model-driven telemetry with Google Remote Procedure Call (gRPC) and Google Network Management Interface (gNMI), traffic automation with XR Transport Control (XTC), Secure Shell (SSH)-based automation tools like NetMiko and Ansible, orchestration provided by Network Services Orchestration (NSO), Network Function Virtualization (NFV) lifecycle management with Elastic Services Controller (ESC), and network operations automation with WAN Automation Engine (WAE).
This training prepares you for the Automating and Programming Cisco® Service Provider Solutions (300-535 SPAUTO) v1.0 exam. If passed, you earn the Cisco Certified DevNet Specialist – Service Provider Automation and Programmability certification and satisfy the concentration exam requirements for the Cisco Certified Network Professional (CCNP) Service Provider and Cisco Certified DevNet Professional certifications. Introducing Automation for Cisco Solutions (CSAU) is required prior to enrolling in this training because it provides crucial foundational knowledge essential to success.
