This 2-day course, Leveraging Cisco Intent-Based Networking DNA Assurance (DNAAS) v2.1, provides you with the skills to monitor and troubleshoot a traditional brownfield network infrastructure using Cisco® Digital Network Architecture (Cisco DNA™) Assurance. The course focuses on highlighting issues rather than on monitoring data.
The advanced artificial intelligence and machine learning features within Cisco DNA Assurance enable you to isolate the root cause of a problem and to take appropriate actions to quickly resolve issues. Cisco DNA Assurance can be used to perform the work of a Level 3 support engineer.
The course qualifies for 16 Cisco Continuing Education credits (CE) towards recertification.
This course will help you:
- Monitor, identify, and respond to changing network and wireless conditions
- Automate manual operations to reduce the costs associated with human errors, resulting in more uptime and improved security
- Save time by using a single dashboard to manage and automate your network
