Extreme Networks Foundations

In this Learning Path, you'll build a foundational understanding of enterprise networking and the Extreme Networks platform, starting with core switching and routing principles. From there, you'll learn how IS-IS serves as the control plane behind Extreme Fabric Connect, building and sharing topology information across the fabric so VLANs can reach each other automatically, without manual route configuration. You'll then see how BGP connects the fabric to the WAN, enabling routing between sites and internet access through Extreme SD-WAN appliances, whether traffic is routed centrally over the WAN or broken out locally based on policy. Together, these technologies show how modern enterprise networks are designed, connected, and extended across multiple sites with Extreme Networks.
