The Designing Cisco Enterprise Wireless Networks (ENWLSD) v1.1 training gives you the knowledge you need to design Cisco® wireless networks. The training covers design specifics from scenario design concepts through the installation phase and into post-deployment validation.
This training, including the self-paced material, helps prepare you to take the exam, Designing Cisco Enterprise Wireless Networks (300-425 ENWLSD), which leads to to the CCNP® Enterprise and Cisco Certified Specialist – Enterprise Wireless Design certifications. This training also earns you 40 Continuing Education (CE) credits towards recertification.
This training will help you:
- Gain the knowledge you need to plan advanced designs of Cisco wireless products
- Qualify for professional-level job roles in wireless networking
- Prepare for the Designing Cisco Enterprise Wireless Networks (300-425 ENWLSD) exam
What to expect in the exam
This training will help you prepare for the Designing Cisco Enterprise Wireless Networks (300-425 ENWLSD) exam. This exam tests your knowledge of wireless network design, including site surveys, wired and wireless infrastructure, mobility, and WLAN high availability.
After you pass 300-425 ENWLSD:
- You earn the Cisco Certified Specialist – Enterprise Wireless Design certification.
- You satisfy the concentration requirement for the new CCNP Enterprise certification. To complete your CCNP Enterprise certification, pass the Enterprise core exam, Implementing Cisco Enterprise Network Core Technologies (350-401 ENCOR).
