Course Overview
The Cisco Network Services Orchestrator (NSO) Administration and DevOps (NSO303) training continues the learning journey of the NSO Essentials for Programmers and Network Architects and NSO Advanced for Python Programmers trainings by introducing you to the system administration and DevOps focusing on NSO. This includes the robust bridge linking network automation and orchestration tools, examining the development, operation, and administration task functions. You will learn how to set up, configure, deploy, and maintain a Cisco NSO solution, and learn best practices for using DevOps. The examples shown in this training demonstrate real-world scenarios to prepare you for deployment and management of new or existing NSO instances.
The training guides you through the setup of production-ready NSO instances using system installation with access control settings, the deployment of NSO in Docker containers, and introduces modern DevOps concepts and tools such as Git and Continuous Delivery/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD). You will learn how to migrate Continuous Diagnostics and Mitigation (CDM) devices, how to build Network Configuration Protocol (NETCONF) Network Element Drivers (NEDs) from the NSO Command-Line Interface (CLI), how to handle NSO Alarms, and many more features that benefit you in your journey with Cisco NSO. This training also earns you 32 Continuing Education (CE) credits toward recertification.
This training will help you:
- Install, configure, and maintain a Cisco Network Services Orchestrator solution
- Apply DevOps best practices for Cisco NSO development, operations, and administrative tasks
- Implement Layered Service Architecture (LSA) within a Cisco NSO solution
- Gain knowledge for protocols, solutions, and designs to acquire professional-level and expert-level networking roles
