Course content

4 sections • 15 lectures • 5h 12m total length

  • Cisco SD-WAN Overview and Challenges14:50

    Discover Cisco SD-WAN with cloud-based management, zero-touch provisioning, and centralized control plane for secure, scalable, multi-link networks. Apply application-aware policies, DPI, and VPN segmentation to isolate traffic and optimize performance.

  • Solution Elements and Overview21:51

    Explore the Cisco sd-wan architecture, detailing the orchestration, management, control, and data planes, including vbond, vmanage, vsmart, and vedge components, and how OMP underpins the fabric.

  • Lab and Lab Access: vManage Dashboard and Monitoring
  • Secure Control Plane22:21

    Learn how to securely establish the Cisco SD-WAN control plane with Vmanage, vbond, vSmart, and vEdge using zero touch provisioning, digital certificates, and templates.

  • SD-WAN Data Plane18:32

    Explore how the sd-wan data plane uses vSmart-mediated key exchanges to securely establish per-site ipsec tunnels, rotate keys, and isolate traffic with segmentation, while continuous bfd monitoring evaluates path performance.

  • SD-WAN Overlay Management Protocol (OMP)21:27

    Explore how OMP powers the sd-wan overlay by connecting vsmart controllers and edges via transport locators, VPN services, and service routes, with route learning and graceful restart.

  • SD-WAN Templates8:31

    Explore how Vmanage templates empower zero-touch provisioning of large Cisco sd-wan deployments by using CLI and feature templates, CSV-driven device configuration, and chassis-based settings.

  • SD-WAN Policies21:13

    Learn how to design centralized and local vSmart policies to control routing and data, implement application aware routing, VPN membership, and C flow templates for traffic capture across edges.

  • SD-WAN Policy Examples25:33

    Explore Cisco SD-WAN policies, including centralized policies advertised via OMP from vsmart, localized edge policies, hub-and-spoke topology design, and app-aware QoS and firewall service examples using Netconf and Yang.

  • SD-WAN Troubleshooting43:42

    Explore monitoring and troubleshooting Cisco SD-WAN (Viptela) networks using alarms, audit logs, and CLI tools to diagnose vbond, vedge, vsmart, vmanage, omp, netconf, IPsec, and routing.

  • vAnalytics8:07

    Learn to use the vmanage rest api to automate and monitor sd-wan environments with get, post, put, and delete operations, real-time monitoring, swagger exploration, and postman or python sdk support.

  • SD-WAN API8:07

    Explore the Vmanage rest api to programmatically configure and monitor sd-wan using http rest operations and authentication, with admin, configuration, monitoring, and troubleshooting endpoints.

Requirements

  • Basic Networking Knowledge

Description

Course Description

This course covers Cisco Software-Defined WAN (SD-WAN) which is an overlay architecture that overcomes the biggest drawbacks of traditional WAN. Students will be able to deploy a Cisco SD-WAN over any transport (MPLS, Broadband, LTE, VSAT etc.) and provide management, policy control and application visibility across the enterprise. This hands-on Course covers the Cisco SD-WAN product and contains extensive labs to reinforce the knowledge learned
