Advanced HP Switches for Engineers

Description

Advanced HP switches training course description

A hands on course covering advanced features of HP switches. The focus of the course is on Layer 3 switching advanced features. Delegates will benefit the most from this course if they can supply us with their own configurations before the course. These configurations can then be used by the trainer in the course.

What will you learn

• Configure and troubleshoot HP layer 3 switching.
• Configure and troubleshoot OSPF
• Harden HP switches.
• Explain the majority of their own configurations (if configurations are supplied to us before the course).
