Implementing and Operating Cisco Enterprise Network Core Technologies (ENCOR) (Coast Guard COOL Program) Exam 350-401 v1,1 ENCOR

This course provides comprehensive preparation for the 350-401 ENCOR exam, the core exam for CCNP Enterprise and CCIE Enterprise Infrastructure tracks. It covers enterprise networking essentials including dual-stack (IPv4/IPv6) architecture, virtualization, infrastructure, automation, security, network assurance, and software-defined networking (SDN) solutions (SD-WAN, SD-Access). Learners will gain both theoretical understanding and hands-on experience to design, deploy, operate, and troubleshoot modern enterprise networks.
