Who Should Attend
Ideal candidates are IT Professionals who deploy small-to- medium scale enterprise
network solutions based on Aruba products and technologies.
Prerequisites
Highly recommended prerequisites are the Aruba Certified Mobility Professional (ACMP) or an existing Aruba Certified Mobility Expert (ACMX)certification.
TheHPE6-A48ACMXWritten Exam is required to be passed before the practical exam. Once the written is passed, you will only have 18 months to pass the ACMX Practical Exam.
Candidates who do not pass the ACMX Practical Exam within 18 months will have to wait for a new version to be released. HPE recommends that you register for the ACMX Practical Exam within 12 months of passing the written exam to ensure that you pass in the allotted18-month time frame.
Course Content
This course teaches you the fundamental skills necessary to configure and manage modern, open standards-based networking solutions. This course consists of approximately 20% lecture and 80% hands-on lab exercises to help you learn how to implement and validate small to medium enterprise network solutions. This 3-day course prepares network professionals for the Aruba Certified Switching Associate (ACSA) V1 exam.
In this course, participants learn about ArubaOS switch technologies including: VLANs, secure access, redundancy technologies such as MSTP,
link aggregation techniques including LACP, and switch virtualization with Aruba’s Virtual Switching Framework (VSF).
You also learn about IP Routing including static and dynamic IP routing with OSPF. This course teaches you how to deploy Aruba wireless Access Points and configure Aruba Instant Access Point (IAP) Clustering technology. It also teaches you how to configure, manage and monitor the network with the Aruba AirWave management solution.
