The WWT Agentic Network Assistant is an AI assistant that automates network troubleshooting, configuration validation and compliance checks for enterprise IT environments. It translates natural language queries into CLI commands, executes them on network devices via SSH, analyzes outputs using AI and provides actionable insights. Additionally, it integrates with Cisco documentation for reference and supports automated runbook execution to streamline network operations.

At Cisco Live 2025, the networking giant rolled out a sweeping agenda to make AI not just powerful, but practical — and secure. In this episode, we caught up with leaders from Cisco, NVIDIA and WWT to talk about what this year's announcements actually mean for enterprise teams tasked with building scalable, secure, AI-ready infrastructure. From the rise of the Cisco Secure AI Factory with NVIDIA to the reality of agentic workflows and persistent inference traffic, this episode unpacks the architectural shifts reshaping the modern data center.

As AI moves from predictive analytics to real-time autonomous decision-making, enterprises face a critical challenge: scaling AI securely and efficiently. This episode of the AI Proving Ground Podcast explores key takeaways from NVIDIA GTC, the evolving Cisco-NVIDIA partnership and the foundational role AI infrastructure plays in unlocking enterprise-scale AI. Featuring WWT VP of Networking and AI Solutions Neil Anderson, NVIDIA SVP of Networking Kevin Deierling and Cisco SVP of Networking Kevin Wollenweber, the episode covers insights into networking, security, and compute innovations, and how Cisco, NVIDIA and WWT are shaping the future of AI-powered businesses.

Cisco is thrilled to bring in WWTs VP of Engineering- Chris Pupillo, Benita Mordi from WWT and Joel Sprague – Cisco, as we dive into the AI in business discussion with some of the common pain points and questions customers are having as they dive into AI deployment and strategy for the first time.

AI Canvas is Cisco's first Generative UI for cross-domain IT-a shared, intelligent workspace that brings real-time telemetry, AI insights, and team collaboration into one view.

Gain insight into how Jack in the Box partnered with WWT and Qu to modernize its store network and point-of-sale system across 2,200 restaurants.

This video is part of an ongoing training playlist, which reviews the fundamentals of Optical Networking. This module gives an overview of reconfigurable optical add-drop multiplexer (ROADM) and how they function in an optical transport system. It provides a thorough overview of the the evolution of the Optical add-drop multiplexer to a software configurable ROADM.

Cisco's end-to-end solution to secure the AI transformation in enterprises.

Backhauling Internet-bound traffic from branches to a data center to consume traditional security services is expensive and adds latency. Many organizations are improving their network infrastructure by adopting SD-WAN and enabling Direct Internet Access (DIA). With the Zscaler and the Cisco SD-WAN integration, you can rapidly gain access to cloud-delivered security in minutes. This market-leading API automation makes it very fast and agile to deploy and manage the network and security environment of hundreds or even thousands of remote sides.

WWT's Knowledge Assistant, powered by NVIDIA's Multimodal PDF Data Extraction Blueprint, accelerates AI outcomes and minimizes hallucinations. Using retrieval augmented generation (RAG), build intelligent chatbots and AI agents that deliver accurate, context-rich insights from your enterprise data.

Cisco's Hybrid Mesh Firewall solution is a highly distributed security fabric optimized to stop advanced threats, protect application vulnerabilities, and implement zero trust segmentation across environments.

This video is part of an ongoing training playlist, which reviews the fundamentals of Optical Networking. This first video module explains an overview of wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) and how this technology functions in an optical networking system.
