Implementing Cisco Service Provider VPN Services

The Implementing Cisco Service Provider VPN Services (SPVI) v1.0 training prepares you to manage end-customer Virtual Private Network (VPN) environments built over a common service provider Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) backbone. You will complete hands-on labs to reinforce MPLS VPN fundamental concepts, benefits, and classification, MPLS components, MPLS control plane and data plane operations, MPLS VPN routing using Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF), Layer 2 and Layer 3 MPLS VPNs, IPv6 MPLS VPN implementations, IP Multicast VPNs, and shared services VPNs. The training also covers solutions for deploying MPLS VPN crossing multiple Service Provider domains that improve the use of network bandwidth.

This training prepares you for the 300-515 Implementing Cisco® Service Provider VPN Services (SPVI) exam. By passing this exam, you earn the Cisco Certified Specialist – Service Provider VPN Services Implementation certification, and you satisfy the concentration exam requirement for the CCNP® Service Provider certification. This training also earns you 40 Continuing Education (CE) credits towards recertification.

This training will help you:
