VMware Telco Cloud Platform for Radio Access Network: Install, Configure, Manage V1.5

VMware VATC Logo

Bitte beachten Sie: Durch die Übernahme von Broadcom wurde das VMware Kursportfolio für die überarbeitete Go-to-Market-Strategie optimiert. Der Fokus liegt künftig auf dem VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF)-Portfolio. Alle Kurse, die nicht dazu gehören, werden am 1. März 2024 in den Status "End of Availability" (EOA) überführt. Somit ist dieser Kurs ab diesem Zeitpunkt bis auf weiteres nur noch auf Anfrage möglich.

Dieser Advanced Kurs wird direkt von VMware durchgeführt.

This three-day, hands-on training course provides you with the advanced knowledge, skills, and tools to achieve competency in operating and troubleshooting the VMware Telco Cloud Platform-RAN™ environment. In this course, you are introduced to the VMware Telco Cloud Platform-RAN infrastructure, deployment options, and procedures. You also deploy Kubernetes clusters and understand the detailed configuration settings of management and workload clusters. You onboard and instantiate network functions and network services using hands-on lab exercises.

In addition, you are presented with various types of technical problems in VMware Telco Cloud Platform-RAN, which you will identify, analyze, and solve through a systematic troubleshooting process.
