35+ Hours of Video Instruction

CCNP and CCIE Enterprise Core ENCOR 350-401 Complete Video Course, Second Edition is a comprehensive training course that has been incorporated with the following changes to accommodate the ENCORE 1.1 Syllabus: Routing topics include EIGRP, Policy Based Routing, and newer IOS XE CLI commands. The Quality of Service (QoS) lesson has expanded from just theory and now includes the Modular QoS commands so that students can understand actual QoS configurations. This course contains a lesson on network architecture too. The Wireless lessons have been updated to accommodate the Cisco IOS XE based wireless LAN controllers and includes enhanced security features like 802.1x and EAPOL, wireless segmentation capabilities and troubleshooting client connectivity via the GUI.

Expert network engineers Brad Edgeworth, Brad Riopolov, and Vinit Jain walk you through the full range of topics on the Cisco ENCOR exam, including dual stack (IPv4 and IPv6) architecture, virtualization, infrastructure, network assurance, security, and automation. This unique product comprising 25 lessons covers the six exam domains and gives you the knowledge and skills you need to configure, troubleshoot, secure, and automate enterprise wired and wireless networks. It combines video instruction with live CLI configuration and troubleshooting demonstrations and provides you with hands-on lab activities. Practicing the lessons that you have learned with hands-on labs helps reinforce the concepts that are being taught. This course includes instructor-developed Cisco Modeling Labs (CML) topology files that correlate with the lab exercises that they demonstrate. This allows you to load the topology files into your CML instance and follow along with the instructors to ensure that you understand the concepts being taught.

This video course covers every exam objective and it's the only thing that you need to successfully study for the 350-401 ENCOR Exam.
