Overview

Cisco Design Fundamentals is a step-by step guide to designing network systems. The demand for new applications and services has created increasingly complex and difficult to manage network environments. In addition there is newer internet-based connectivity to cloud data centers. The costs to support network infrastructure that is not properly designed is astonishing. I.T departments spend most of their time fixing problems that result from common issues such as wrong equipment selection, protocols or incorrect IOS code. There is a layered approach you will learn that creates network design solutions optimized for performance, security, scalability and availability. The framework is based on a model of requirements, assessment, selection, testing and deployment workflow. The book provides guidance on topologies, bandwidth calculation, traffic modeling and proper network addressing. In addition feature set requirements and new application services are discussed to enhance performance and scalability. You will select security and network management solutions to create a lab ready design for the data center. The design validation and equipment rack activities are discussed as well with any new implementation. The step-by-step framework is then applied with a Dynamic Mutipoint VPN (DMVPN) case study example. The book is an excellent learning guide for all skill levels that support, design and architect network solutions.
