| CCDE Assesses advanced Network Infrastructure Design Principles and Fundamentals for large networks. A CCDE can demonstrate an ability to develop solutions which address planning, design, integration, optimization, operations, security and ongoing support focused at the infrastructure level for customer networks.
|
|
|
| The CCDE certification is focused on professionals responsible for network design. In contrast, the CCIE certification is focused on professionals responsible for network implementation and operation.
|
|
|
| The Fast Lane CCDE Written Boot Camp does not include the actual exam, but provides delegates with the necessary theory to prepare for the two-hour, multiple choice test. It will include routing and switching network theory related to topics that will be covered in the exam, such as:
|
|
|
| • MPLS
|
| • IP routing
|
| • BGP
|
| • QoS
|
| • IS-IS
|
| • and some equipment commands.
|
|
|
|
|
| Delegates should be prepared to work beyond the usual classroom hours in order to prepare for the written exam |
| This 4 day course will prepare delegates for the two hour written CCIE exam.
