DCACI | Implementing Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure
 
The Implementing Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure (DCACI) training introduces you to the implementation and management of the Cisco Nexus 9000 Series Switches in Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure (ACI) mode. The 5-day lab-intensive training covers the key components and procedures you need to know to understand, configure, and manage Cisco Nexus 9000 Series Switches in ACI mode, how to connect the Cisco ACI fabric to external networks and services, and fundamentals of Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) integration.
 
This training prepares you for the 300-620 DCACI exam, which certifies your knowledge of working with Cisco switches in ACI mode including configuration, implementation, and management. After you pass 300-620 DCACI, you earn the Cisco Certified Specialist – Data Center ACI Implementation certification and you satisfy the concentration exam requirement for the CCNP Data Center certification. This training also earns you 40 Continuing Education (CE) credits toward recertification.
