The ENCOR portion of this course prepares you to implement and operate modern enterprise wired networks. You will build skills across campus architecture, switching and redundancy, OSPF and BGP routing, network services and VPNs, infrastructure security, and software-defined networking with LISP, VXLAN, SD-Access, and SD-WAN.
The wireless portion develops skills for implementing and troubleshooting secure wireless infrastructure and client connectivity, wireless quality of service, and advanced wireless services such as location, analytics, and spectrum management.
This bundle supports preparation for two Cisco exams in separate certification tracks: 350-401 ENCOR v1.2, which serves as the core exam for CCNP Enterprise, and 300-120 WLSI, which serves as a concentration exam for CCNP Wireless. Vouchers for both exams should be described as included only after the 300-120 WLSI voucher mapping is confirmed.
