Global Knowledge-Cisco - (Page 21) ICSNS – Implementing Cisco Storage Networking Solutions v3.0 Course 5115 This course replaces MDSCT (Cisco MDS 9000 Configuration & Troubleshooting v2.2). Course Description Examine and configure the hardware and software components of the Cisco MDS 9000 product family, focusing on key technologies and features that apply to departmental, mid-range, and enterprise SANs. Learn to install and bring up the switch; configure Virtual SANs (VSANs), domains, interfaces, and zones; implement PortChannels; configure management security; and perform basic troubleshooting. You will also learn how to configure highly available FCIP tunnels and tune the performance of your FCIP links. This course combines MDSCT and CMSE into a single course and is updated for SAN-OS 2.1 and 3.0, with basic networking content added.
