Course Objectives

Securing Enterprise Data Center Architectures is a lab-intensive course that allows delegates to integrate and test Cisco Systems security products and security best practices that comprise the Cisco Enterprise Data Center Architecture.

Delegates will implement and integrate the Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series Firewall Services Module (FWSM); the Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series Intrusion Detection System Module (IDSM-2); and two Cisco anomaly detection devices: Cisco traffic anomaly detectors and Cisco Guard DDoS mitigation appliances.

Hands-on lab experience includes use of commonly available network test applications, as well as scripts that delegates can use to verify that implemented security techniques are successful. Delegates will also learn best practices for implementing Layer 2 and Layer 3 security, with hands-on practice in implementing features such as port security and private VLANs.
