The Automating Cisco Data Center Networking Solutions (DCNAUTO) training teaches you how to implement and optimize automation in Cisco data center environments. You will gain hands-on experience with Cisco Nexus platforms, programmability features, and modern automation tools used to streamline operations across switching, compute, and fabric controllers. The training covers foundational concepts in network programmability, then advances into day-zero provisioning, on-box automation using Bash, Python, and Guest Shell, and off-box automation with Cisco NX-API, NETCONF/RESTCONF, and YANG models. You will also explore Infrastructure as Code (IaC) workflows with Cisco Nexus Dashboard Fabric Controller (NDFC), Ansible, and Terraform, as well as network validation and testing with Cisco pyATS. Finally, you will learn how AI-driven operations enhance network automation and simplify lifecycle management. \n\nThis training prepares you for the 300-635 DCNAUTO v2.0 exam. If passed, you earn the Cisco Certified Specialist - Data Center Networking Automation certification and satisfy the concentration exam requirements for the Cisco Certified Network Professional (CCNP) Data Center and Automation certifications. This training also earns you 43 Continuing Education (CE) credits toward recertification.\n \nHow You’ll Benefit\n\n\nThis training will help you: \n\n\n\n- Gain practical, hands-on experience with Cisco Nexus platforms and automation tools used in modern data centers\n- Acquire skills in network programmability, including scripting with Python and using APIs for automating network operations\n- Learn to implement IaC workflows using tools like Ansible and Terraform for efficient configuration management\n- Develop troubleshooting expertise in both infrastructure automation and AI-driven operations, enhancing job readiness for advanced network roles\n- Prepare for the 300-635 DCNAUTO v2.0 exam\n- Earn 43 CE credits toward recertification\n\nWhat to Expect in the Exam\n\n\nAutomating Cisco Data Center Networking Solutions (300-635 DCNAUTO) v2.0 is a 90-minute exam associated with the Cisco Certified Specialist - Data Center Networking Automation certification and satisfies the concentration exam requirements for the CCNP® Data Center and Automation certifications. \n\nThis exam tests your knowledge and skills related to implementing data center automated solutions, including: \n\n\n\n- Infrastructure as code\n- Network element programmability\n- Operations\n- AI in automation
