1. L2/L3 network infrastructure to support WLANs
2. Infrastructure Application Services
3. Autonomous deployment model
4. Unified deployment model
5. WCS
6. WLAN Services
I anticipate that I
should be able to complete topics 1 and 2 within a reasonable time however it will
not be the same for topic 3.
The only experience with
AAP I had in the past was to convert them to lightweight through the upgrade tool.As the experience not at expert level, I know section 3 will nee bit of attention. Wonder why autonomous is still part of the syllabus?
At the enterprise level don’t know anyone who still uses autonomous APs. As part of the AAP prep work, I will start digging deep
into ACS/CA during so hopefully I will be able solidify the concepts
when I’m studying the unify model. Typically I don’t handle ACS, ISE, AD and CA
side of things and thus weak on these topics.
Unified deployment closely
relates to my day-to-day work. However, mastering all the sub-topics to the CCIE
level will require considerable amount of time. Also may have to get rack
access to play with 6500s and VSS.
WCS..Don’t think this is as
challenging as the other topics nevertheless I will have to cover all sub-topics
detailed in the blueprint.
Last not least WLAN
services will be interesting and a topic area I like.
It’s a good thing ISE is
not part of v2.0!!!
