DCIT v7.2 - Troubleshooting Cisco Data Center Infrastructure **Part of the CCNP Data Center certification track**

Overview The Troubleshooting Cisco Data Center Infrastructure (DCIT) v6.0 is a five-day instructor-led course that is designed to help students prepare for the Cisco CCNP Data Center certification and for professional-level data center roles. The focus of this skills-building course is troubleshooting of LAN, SAN, Cisco Data Center Unified Fabric, Cisco Unified Computing System (UCS), and Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure (ACI). _ The course provides rich, hands-on experience in resolving problems on Cisco MDS switches, Cisco Nexus switches, Cisco fabric extenders (FEXs), Cisco UCS, and Cisco ACI. Objectives Upon completing this course, the learner will be able to meet these overall objectives: _ Troubleshoot Layer 2 technologies, such as STP, port channels, vPC, Cisco FabricPath, and FEX Troubleshoot first-hop redundancy, routing, and CFS in the data center Troubleshoot virtualization solutions, such as OTV, VRF, and VXLAN Troubleshoot storage area networks, including Fibre Channel, FCoE, zoning, NPV, and NPIV Troubleshoot data center unified computing Prerequisites The knowledge, skills, and attitudes that a learner is expected to have before attending this course are as follows: Introducing Cisco Data Center Networking (DCICN) v6.0 Introducing Cisco Data Center Technologies (DCICT) v6.0 Implementing Cisco Data Center Infrastructure (DCII) v6.0 Implementing Cisco Data Center Virtualization and Automation (DCVAI) v6.0 Implementing Cisco Data Center Unified Computing (DCUCI) v6.0 Course Outline Module 1: Troubleshooting the Data Center LAN Network Objective: Troubleshoot the data center LAN network _ Lesson 1: Overview of the Troubleshooting Process Lesson 2: Understanding CLI Troubleshooting Tools Lesson 3: Troubleshooting VLANs and Private VLANs Lesson 4: Troubleshooting Port Channels and Virtual Port Channels Lesson 5: Troubleshooting Cisco FabricPath Lesson 6: Troubleshooting Cisco OTV Lesson 7: Troubleshooting VXLAN Lesson 8: Troubleshooting Platform-Specific Issues Module 2: Troubleshooting Data Center SAN Objective: Identify and resolve issues related to SAN Switching in the Cisco Data Center architecture _ Lesson 1: Troubleshooting Fibre Channel Interfaces Lesson 2: Troubleshooting Fibre Channel Fabric Service Lesson 3: Troubleshooting NPV Mode Lesson 4: Troubleshooting FCoE Lesson 5: Troubleshooting DCBX Module 3: Troubleshooting Data Center Unified Computing Objective: Describe the UCS B-series and C-series architecture, its installation and configuration, and the process and tools for troubleshooting _ Lesson 1: Troubleshooting Cisco UCS B-Series Architecture and Initialization Lesson 2: Troubleshooting Cisco UCS B-Series Configuration Lesson 3: Troubleshooting Cisco UCS B-Series Operation Lesson 4: Troubleshooting Cisco UCS B-Series LAN and SAN Connectivity Lesson 5: Troubleshooting Cisco UCS B-Series Hardware Lesson 6: Troubleshooting Cisco UCS C-Series Architecture and Configuration Lesson 7: Troubleshooting Cisco UCS C-Series Hardware and Firmware Lesson 8: Troubleshooting Cisco UCS C-Series LAN and SAN Connectivity Lesson 9: Troubleshooting Cisco UCS C-Series and Cisco UCS Manager Integration Module 4: Troubleshooting Data Center ACI Objective: Troubleshoot Data Center ACI _ Lesson 1: Exploring the Tools and Methodology of Troubleshooting Lab Outline Guided Lab 1: Document the Network Baseline Guided Lab 2: Troubleshoot LAN—RSTP Guided Lab 3: Troubleshoot LAN—LACP Guided Lab 4: Troubleshoot LAN—vPC Guided Lab 5: Troubleshoot LAN—FabricPath Guided Lab 6: Troubleshoot LAN—OTV Guided Lab 7: Troubleshoot LAN—OSPF Guided Lab 8: Troubleshoot LAN—FHRP Guided Lab 9: Troubleshoot LAN—VRF Guided Lab 10: Troubleshoot LAN—VXLAN Guided Lab 11: Troubleshoot LAN—CFS Guided Lab 12: Troubleshoot LAN—FEX Guided Lab 13: Troubleshoot SAN—FC Interfaces Guided Lab 14: Troubleshoot SAN—FC VSANs, Zones, and Domain Services Guided Lab 15: Troubleshoot SAN—NPV Mode Guided Lab 16: Troubleshoot SAN—FCoE Guided Lab 17: Troubleshoot SAN—DCB Guided Lab 18: Troubleshoot Compute—Cisco UCS Management and Service Profile Deployment Guided Lab 19: Troubleshoot Compute—Cisco UCS B-Series Server Boot from SAN Guided Lab 20: Troubleshoot Compute—LAN Connectivity, Part 1 Guided Lab 21: Troubleshoot Compute—LAN Connectivity, Part 2 Guided Lab 22: Troubleshoot Compute—Failover Connectivity, Part 1 Guided Lab 23: Troubleshoot Compute—Failover Connectivity, Part 2 Guided Lab 24: Troubleshoot Compute—Cisco UCS C-Series Server Boot from SAN Guided Lab 25: Troubleshoot Compute—Network Connectivity Guided Lab 26: Troubleshoot ACI—Bare Metal Hosts Guided Lab 27: Troubleshoot ACI—VMM Guided Lab 28: Troubleshoot ACI—Contracts Guided Lab 29: Troubleshoot ACI—External Layer 3 Guided Lab 30: Troubleshoot ACI—External Layer 2
