Description

This intermediate-level Cisco API training prepares learners to programmatically access Cisco data, manage enterprise automation, and increase productivity with Cisco APIs and protocols.

With most technologies, there's the top-level, graphical interface that most people use to interact with the tool or application. And although it's useful, it's rarely the place where unique customizations can be made to alter how the tool or app works. For most technologies, unlocking the true power of the tool requires understanding the APIs and protocols that keep it working from within.

More details

This network programmability training will expose to you the inventory of options that let you programmatically access and automate Cisco network devices. With a control of Cisco APIs and protocols, an administrator will have fine-tuned control of the biggest-picture operations and be proficient at automating the network's maintenance and operations.

After finishing the videos in this Automating APIs and Protocols for Cisco training, you'll know how to programmatically access Cisco data, manage enterprise automation, and increase productivity with Cisco APIs and protocols.

For IT managers, this Cisco training can be used to onboard new network administrators, curated into individual or team training plans, or as a Cisco reference resource.

"The best part about being a trainer is learning all of these great new technologies, and working with a community of people who are all passionate about learning, and just generally being a part of a culture that values learning the way I do. I love sitting down and working through an involved or complex topic so that I can competently speak about it on screen."
