Cisco Live 2026: What the WWT Networking Team Learned in Las Vegas

Each year, Cisco Live brings together tens of thousands of networking professionals for a week of announcements, deep-dive sessions, and the kind of candid conversations that only happen in person. This year in Las Vegas, WWT sent a team of networking subject matter experts covering wireless, switching, SD-WAN, core routing, optical networking, and data center networking. What they brought back was a consistent signal: AI is no longer a strategy conversation, it is an infrastructure conversation, and the network is squarely at the center of it.

Cisco Nexus Dashboard 4.1: VXLAN EVPN Fabric Deployment

Nexus Dashboard provides a centralized platform to simplify the deployment, management, and extension of VXLAN EVPN fabrics. In this hands-on lab, you will start by onboarding devices, then configure vPCs, VRFs, and networks to enable segmentation and tenant connectivity. You'll also implement external route advertisement, route leaking between VRFs, and explore the roles of Border Gateways versus Border Gateway Spines. Finally, you'll integrate multiple fabrics into a Multi-Site Domain, building a scalable, distributed architecture. This lab demonstrates the value of Nexus Dashboard in providing centralized visibility, streamlining operations, and simplifying complex fabric management across sites.

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.
