Learning Paths and Labs
WWT's Labs and Learning provides on-demand and hands-on education with practical experience and skill-building.
Cisco Catalyst (Viptela) SD-WAN Visibility with Analytics
This learning path explores the use of monitoring your Cisco SD-WAN fabric with SD-WAN Analytics and ThousandEyes, showcasing their unique methods of providing visibility into network and application performance.
As a WAN engineer, monitoring and keeping an eye on the health of your network can be a constant challenge, but luckily network monitoring capabilities have come a long way. In today's complex network environments, having robust monitoring capabilities is essential for network engineers to understand and troubleshoot issues effectively. SD-WAN Analytics and ThousandEyes are powerful tools that provide varying levels of network visibility, each offering unique perspectives and usage scenarios. Understanding the capabilities of each helps network engineers identify the right tool for their specific needs, ensuring optimal network performance and reliability.
Cisco Catalyst (Viptela) SD-WAN With SD-Routing
SD-Routing is a new capability offered by Cisco, in an attempt to simplify and overcome the challenges of traditional routing deployments. This capability enables autonomous (non-SD-WAN) routing devices to be managed through the Catalyst SD-WAN Manager, unifying autonomous and SD-WAN devices into a single platform, unlocking many of the tools and features previously only offered to SD-WAN devices, such as device lifecycle management, DIA (Direct Internet Access), Cloud-onRamp, and troubleshooting tools.
Enroll to gain practical skills in onboarding traditional routing devices into SD-WAN Manager, and become proficient in leveraging SD-Routing's benefits for simplified network management and enhanced operational agility. Start your SD-Routing journey today!
Palo Alto NGFW Intermediate Version 11 Lab
The Palo Alto NGFW Intermediate Lab is a hand-on virtual environment where you'll be able to complete the exercises you see in the Intermediate learning path as well as several new practicals. The Intermediate lab focuses on tasks like SSL Decryption, URL Filtering, and DNS Tunneling. Just like the Foundations lab, the Intermediate lab is built upon the same infrastructure. While there is a guide that you can follow along with, you can also explore the environment and test any configuration you'd like.
Palo Alto Prisma Browser Lab
Palo Alto Networks Prisma Browser is an enterprise-grade, security-first web browser built on Chromium and designed to extend Zero Trust principles directly to the endpoint. Rather than relying on agents or network redirects, it embeds security controls natively into the browsing experience itself. Test capabilities and see use cases in this lab, featuring watermarking, clipboard control, login controls, phishing protection, malicious extension detection, and more.
