CCIE Enterprise: How to Study SD-Access Without Breaking The Bank

[@johnericfranchi492]

Boom. That's the video I was looking for. Thank you much.

[@sauvus]

Thanks for sharing this, looking through the ENCOR exam, SD-Access basics are a large foundational topic and covered a lot in the exam. The labminutes videos you shared are very useful even for the ENCOR exam!

Hey Michael, really appreciate the shout out. Thanks!

[@gngogh]

That was a great webinar, looking forward for that virtual catalyst switch and DNA lite :-). BTW good tip on the lisp/vxlan books

[@colbyj2078]

Khawar’s website offers a full SDA course with 20 hours of actual rack time. Pricer option, but this will likely be everything you need for the CCIE.

I'm glad I found this, I'm prepping for my CCIE Enterprise too Thank you

[@gilangradip]

Thank you for sharing this!

[@hakimkasman]

Thanks for sharing. Unfortunately there's no more KB Basic and the cheapest would be KB Learn

[@info_9160]

Hi, @Michael O'Brien's CCIE Journey, I checked the KBITs training courses you have attached, and they're not even near $100 per year for the SDA materials. His cheapest yearly subscription is $500, and his KB Plus is $1500 - is that correct, or am I missing something? Thanks,

[@octavioperez6894]

I begin to follow you recently and your work is awesome. I currently trying to find or develop a lab manual or guide for the CCIE enterprise lab exam, would you do a series for this? It would be very very helpful.

[@walternakatana7603]

thank you for your effort... Last time I checked lab minutes sda course was 299USD, maybe things changed

[@albinorhino187]

kbits looks like those SD videos are only under the pricier KB learn/plus/full access plans, not the cheap $100 basic plan.

[@michael_obrien]

I guess you'd have to email him to confirm, but I only paid $99 and I have them.... I may have gotten an intro price though as I signed up when it went live.

Thankyou

[@dmatema]

Does any one have the link for the Webinar. Thanks.

[@MrCoollyx]

isn't VXLAN and LISP for the overlay, and the underlay about the IGP(OSPF,IS-IS,EIGRP) the overlay will run on?

[@gngogh]

Indeed, if you do Lan automation the igp is isis and then everything else on top of it.

[@michael_obrien]

Yeah, but based on the webinar and the exam blueprint, we need to know how to set it all up without LAN automation. We also need to understand the LISP/VXLAN design & config. Those books by Tim cover all of it. I don't believe there are any other workbooks on the market right now that cover those topics with SDA in mind.

[@gngogh]

@@michael_obrien Lan automation is optional and is only for the underlay. It does not provision the fabric. The fabric must be configured from DNAC. What you can configure via CLI is the underlay and the hand-off (L3 or L2). I do agree that you have to know about LiSP/vxlan mainly Lisp so that you can understand what DNAC is actually configuring. They can also mess with the configuration and prevent you from seeing the compliance status of a Device which is this case you are screwed and you must know what lisp configuration might be missing, but I highly doubt that they will ask you to configure the fabric from cli actually if you try to provision a device with all that configuration DNAC is gonna complain about it.

[@michael_obrien]

@@gngogh agreed, they won't ask you to configure it from scratch. However, it's still in the design section so we have to know it. Also Peter specifically said that there may be a case where a command is missing and/or wrong, so we need to be able to go into the CLI and fix it. Since there is no tshoot section anymore, they are going to sneak these types of tasks into the config section. Just like DMVPN. We won't need to set up a DMVPN from scratch on the lab, but we still need to understand the config because something may be wrong in the existing configuration.

[@gngogh]

@@michael_obrien I couldn't agree more. Peter has a lot of tricks in his sleave. BTW I recommend watching this video brkcrt-3101 it's from Peter too its about a task on the ccie ei where you have to integrate sda with Sd-WAN.

[@nick_7979]

How to they really expect us to study this?? It’s ridiculous!

[@potuspeck6991]

Dnac ressouces is a joke. Shows how poor this sw is
