Course Description

Configuring Cisco MDS 9000 Series Switches (DCMDS)

The Configuring Cisco MDS 9000 Series Switches (DCMDS) v3.0 course shows you how to implement, manage, and troubleshoot Cisco® MDS 9000 Series Switches, to build highly available, scalable storage networks. Through expert instruction and extensive hands-on practice, you will learn how to deploy and use capabilities such as Virtual Storage Area Networks (VSANs), Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), N-Port Virtualization (NPV) fabric security, zoning, automation with NX-API, Slow Drain Analysis, Fibre Channel over TCP/IP (FCIP) tunnels, and more. You will learn how to configure and implement platform features and learn troubleshooting techniques pertaining to Fibre Channel (FC) domains, firmware upgrades, zones, and zone mergers.
This Configuring Cisco MDS 9000 Series Switches (DCMDS) course helps you prepare to take the exam, Configuring Cisco MDS 9000 Series Switches (300-625 DCSAN), which leads to CCNP® Data Center and Cisco Certified Specialist.

This course prepares you for the Cisco Certified Specialist - Data Center SAN Implementation Certification.
  • The Configuring Cisco MDS 9000 Series Switches (DCMDS) v3.1 course shows you how to implement, manage, and troubleshoot Cisco® MDS 9000 Series Switches, to build highly available, scalable storage networks.
  • The network simulator, Packet Tracer, is available as a free download at the completion of an online self-paced course. However, you might also consider looking into the Cisco Learning Labs as well. The Cisco Learning Labs are not free but they provide guided virtual practice labs powered by real Cisco IOS with objectives and solutions.
  • Note By default, all Cisco MDS 9000 Family switches belong to VSAN 1. We recommend you create production environment VSANs and configure the switches to use those VSANs. You cannot configure any application-specific parameters for a VSAN before creating the VSAN. Creating and Configuring VSANs.

The Configuring Cisco MDS 9000 Series Switches (DCMDS) course is also available as part of our Cisco Data Center Passport, which helps individuals and teams master the operation, architecture, and security of complex data center networks.

Learning Objectives

  • Discover and describe the Cisco Multilayer Director Switch (MDS) platform of multilayer switches and directors. Describe the MDS hardware, NX-OS operating system, Data Center Network Manager (DCNM) management software, and key architectures of the platform, such as FC and Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE)
  • Describe key product features of the MDS platform, including VSANs, RBAC, NPV, port channels, zoning, device aliases, inter-VSAN routing (IVR), and fabric security
  • Configure and implement the Cisco MDS switches and platform features, such has initial configuration, building a fabric, building a SAN extension, and configuring inter-VSAN routing for that purpose
  • Resolve issues and troubleshoot FC domains, zones and zone merges, and switch boot and firmware upgrades
  • Learn how to deploy and troubleshoot the Cisco Nexus® 9000 Series Switches to support performance, resiliency, scalability, and enhanced operations for data centers
  • Gain knowledge and skills through Cisco’s unique combination of lessons and hands-on practice using enterprise-grade Cisco learning technologies, data center equipment, and software
