Course ScheduleNoneDescription
In this course, you will learn how to design, implement, and manage a Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) infrastructure using the Cisco Nexus 5000 platform. This course covers FCoE design guidelines, configuring FCoE on servers, and configuring FCoE on switches in switch mode and NPV mode. You will learn about the architecture of the Nexus 5000 FCoE switches, and how this architecture affects traffic flow in an FCoE network. Pre-Requisites
Course Objectives
Upon completion of the course, participants will be able to: § Identify the benefits provided by Nexus 5000 switches in common user scenarios § Explain how the Nexus 5000 operates within SAN and LAN environments § Review the operation of Fibre Channel within SAN environments § Describe how FCoE operates within SAN and LAN environments § Describe the core features of the NX-OS platform § Describe the ASIC-level architecture of the switch and CNAs, and explain how the architecture impacts network design § Configure the Nexus 5000 in switch mode and NPV mode § Manage traffic flow and priority § Configure security policies § Implement high-availability configurations
