Description
Who should attend
The ACE Level 3 course is best suited for individuals with 2–5 years of experience in the Network Engineering Field and are comfortable with common layer 2 and layer 3 technologies and configurations. Mid-to-senior level Network Engineers and Operations staff will find the skills most often searched for by corporations for these positions. Engineers looking to cross over from siloed skillsets in networking and wanting to embrace the whole network to include DC, Campus and monitoring will grow their relevance to modern architectures. Those individuals holding current or expired Professional certifications in other vendor programs will find a refreshed and updated approach. ACE:L3 focuses on the features and skills needed in every network. You will not waste energy learning outdated technologies, approaches or tasks no longer used in open networks. All topics are used daily within every Arista Customer network.
