Overview

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.
