Il Corso IOSXRE – Cisco IOS XR Software Essentials introduce i Partecipanti alle funzionalità essenziali di Cisco IOS XR Software, il sistema operativo utilizzato su piattaforme Cisco carrier-grade e infrastrutture di rete avanzate. Il corso fornisce una base tecnica solida per comprendere architettura, installazione, configurazione, gestione operativa, sicurezza, routing, MPLS, monitoring e programmability in ambienti basati su IOS XR. Durante il corso vengono trattati temi e tecnologie come Cisco IOS XR Software architecture, software installation, upgrades, package management, Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP), CLI operations, initial router configuration, configuration commit and rollback, system security, Management Plane Protection (MPP), Unicast Reverse Path Forwarding (uRPF), logging, NTP, timing and synchronization, AAA services, task-based security, user security policies e Modular QoS. Il programma approfondisce inoltre le funzioni di routing e forwarding su IOS XR, includendo IS-IS, OSPF, BGP, Routing Information Base, route policy, load balancing, MPLS, label propagation e scenari tipici service provider. Vengono inoltre affrontati gli strumenti per network management e visibilità operativa, tra cui SNMP, process monitoring, model-driven programmability, model-driven telemetry, application hosting e deployment di applicazioni di terze parti tramite Docker container su router Cisco IOS XR. Il Corso contribuisce alla preparazione delle competenze richieste nei percorsi di Certificazione Cisco Service Provider, con focus specifico su Cisco IOS XR Software, routing protocols, MPLS, SNMP, model-driven programmability, model-driven telemetry, application hosting e gestione operativa di infrastrutture carrier-grade.
