ENAUTO - Automating and Programming Cisco Enterprise Solutions

The Automating and Programming Cisco Enterprise Solutions (ENAUTO) course teaches you how to implement Cisco Enterprise automated solutions, including programming concepts, orchestration, telemetry, and automation tools. The goal of this training is to highlight the tools and the benefits of leveraging programmability and automation in the Cisco-powered Enterprise Campus and WAN. Examined platforms include Cisco IOS XE software for device-centric automation, Cisco Catalyst Center for the intent-based enterprise network, Cisco Catalyst Software-Defined WAN (SD-WAN), and Cisco Meraki. Their current ecosystem of APIs, software development toolkits, and relevant workflows are inspected in detail together with open industry standards, tools, and APIs, such as Python, Ansible, Git, JSON/YAML, NETCONF/RESTCONF, and YANG.

This training prepares you for the 300-435 ENAUTO v2.0 exam. If passed, you earn the Cisco Certified Specialist - Enterprise Automation certification and satisfy the concentration exam requirement for the Cisco Certified Network Professional (CCNP) Enterprise and Automation concentration exams. This training also earns you 34 Continuing Education (CE) credits toward recertification.
