Overview:

**This is a new course which is part of the new CCNP certification.**

Implementing Secure Converged Wide Area Networks (ISCW) v1.0 is an advanced instructor-led course that introduces techniques and features that enable or enhance WAN and remote access solutions.
This five-day course focuses on using one or more of the available WAN connection technologies for remote access between enterprise sites.
This course includes cable modems and DSL with Network Address Translation (NAT), Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) virtual private networks (VPNs), and network security using VPNs with IPsec encryption and Internet Key Exchange (IKE) keys.
Successful graduates will be able to secure the network environment using existing Cisco IOS security features, and configure the three primary components of the Cisco IOS Firewall feature set (firewall, intrusion prevention system [IPS], and authentication, authorization, and accounting [AAA]).
This task-oriented course teaches the knowledge and skills needed to secure Cisco IOS router networks using features and commands in Cisco IOS software, and using a router configuration application.
This course is part of the recommended learning path for learners seeking the Cisco CCNPŽ.
