Implementing HP E-Series Networks, Rev. 10.41

Course Description/Agenda


In this course, you will learn techniques for designing and implementing resilient switched and routed converged networks based on the HP E-Series ProVision ASIC switches and capable of fulfilling the "triple play" requirement of supporting voice, video, and data transmissions on a unified infrastructure.

You will gain the knowledge and skills necessary to configure HP E-Series switches supporting network redundancy at Layer 2 and Layer 3, networks supporting IPv4 and IPv6 as well as OSPFv2 and OSPFv3, and IP multicast supported network systems.

Hands-on labs configuring E-Series ProVision ASIC switches will reinforce concepts presented.

Certification:

  • HP ASE - Network Infrastructure [2011]
  • HP ASE - Wireless Networks [2011]
