Résumé du cours
This two-day course provides students with the knowledge required to configure and deploy WAN Edge devices in Mist. The course summarizes the Mist full-stack solution and how it aligns to enterprise architectures, followed by detailed information about how to configure and deploy SRX and SSR WAN Edge devices in standalone and hub-and-spoke SD-WAN topologies.
Key topics include Enterprise WAN Edge design principles, device onboarding and basic configuration in the Mist UI, common configuration tasks and workflows, and operational monitoring and device maintenance within Mist. Mist is a cloud-based solution, and this course is based on the latest available version, to be updated as needed.
