Cisco NCS 2000 Deploying 96-Channel Flex Spectrum (OPT201)
Duration: 3 Days (24 Hours)
Cisco NCS 2000 Deploying 96-Channel Flex Spectrum (OPT201) Course Overview:
What you’ll learn in this course
The Cisco NCS2000 Deploying 96-Channel Flex Spectrum (OPT201) v3.0 course shows you how to plan, configure, and control optical networks using the Cisco® Network Convergence System (NCS) 2000 series Flex Spectrum platform.
The course teaches you how to design Flex Spectrum networks with multi-degree Reconfigurable Optical AddDrop Multiplexer (ROADM) multi-shelf nodes using the Cisco Transport Planner (CTP) software.
You’ll learn how to:
● Install the Cisco NCS 2000 series hardware
● Configure an optical network and circuits using the Cisco Transport Controller (CTC) software
● Learn which components and configurations take advantage of and/or are required for the Flex Spectrum 96-channel feature
● Configure optical networks with multidegree ROADM multishelf nodes
● Configure optical networks with colorless, contentionless, omnidirectional, and MPO cross-connect advanced features
● Describe and configure the NCS 2000 400-Gbps Xponder line card
How you’ll benefit
This course will help you:
● Gain an in-depth understanding of how to install, deploy, and maintain a Cisco Optical Networking Services (ONS) 15454 Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP) network
● Practice what you learn through hands-on labs
