CCNP Enterprise ENCC – Designing and Implementing Cloud Connectivity
The ENCC Designing and Implementing Cloud Connectivity course is part of the Cisco CCNP Enterprise track . The course is an advanced training intervention aimed at those who want to develop skills in the field of designing and implementing cloud connectivity solutions for enterprises. This course provides an in-depth understanding of how to extend the enterprise network to cloud providers such as Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP) through both public and private Internet-based connections. Participants will explore the fundamental concepts of public cloud infrastructure and learn how to integrate services such as Software as a Service (SaaS), Direct Internet Access (DIA), and Cisco Umbrella. Special emphasis will be placed on techniques for analyzing and recommending connectivity models that are scalable, resilient, secure, and that ensure the best quality of experience for users. The course also covers the implementation of cloud connectivity via Internet Protocol Security (IPsec) and Software-Defined Wide-Area Network (SD-WAN), as well as configuring overlay routing with Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) and Border Gateway Protocol (BGP). A key part of the course is dedicated to troubleshooting cloud connectivity issues, including IPsec, SD-WAN, routing, application performance, and policy enforcement. The Course contributes to the preparation of the CCNP Enterprise Certification exam (Exam 300-440) .
