Course Description
The ACI Elite Series is a series of expert-led 4-hour deep-dive sessions with hands-on lab practice. We cover different topics each week, so you can choose the ones that apply to you, at a time that works for you.
This session provides a deep-dive into ACI Fabric Configuration. This topic will be delivered in two parts, which will take place on consecutive weeks.
