The IOS of Cisco routers and Catalyst switches has proven itself as a network operating system for decades and can be regarded as the de facto standard for all Cisco systems. Modern enterprise networks are built with Catalyst Switches 9000, which have some new and partly hardware-related features that were only implemented in the course of the IOS XE operating system. This course focuses on the modern aspects of Catalyst switches and presents them in a practical way. Among other things, it also covers protocols that are used for SD Access in the underlay network.
