ECMS2 | Engineering Cisco Meraki Solutions Part 2 v2.0
The course, Engineering Cisco Meraki Solutions Part 2 (ECMS2) v2.1 elevates your knowledge of Cisco Meraki technology suite. In this advanced technical training course, you’ll learn how to plan for network deployments and integrations using the Cisco Meraki platform. Through practical hands-on instruction and experiences, you will learn how to operate Meraki networks and troubleshoot complex network incidents using the Meraki Dashboard and analytics. You will also learn how to design Meraki architectures for redundancy, high-density, and scalability by implementing comprehensive Meraki product features to meet design objectives. This course is the second of two courses that prepares you for Cisco Meraki certification.

After taking this course, you should be able to:
Plan new Cisco Meraki architectures and expand existing deployments
Design the network for scalable management and high availability
Describe how to automate and scale Meraki deployments with dashboard tools
Use dynamic routing protocols to expand networks and improve WAN performance
Describe proper QoS, policy and performance-based routing configurations across a Cisco Meraki network and WAN optimization through traffic shaping
Describe Virtual Private Network (VPN) and Wide Area Network (WAN) topologies and how to integrate them
Secure, expand, and shape the network
Implement switched network concepts and practices, and configure guests networks
Implement wireless configurations concepts and practices
Describe endpoint management concepts and practices using Cisco Meraki Systems Manager
Describe physical security concepts and practices
Gain network insight by monitoring applications
Describe how to prepare monitoring, logging, and alerting services
Set up reporting and auditing capabilities in the Cisco Meraki dashboard
Monitor and troubleshoot issues using Cisco Meraki tools

Prerequisites
Before enrolling in the ECMS2 course, it is highly recommended that you have already attended and completed the ECMS1 course before attending this training. You should also have general networking understanding, Meraki-specific proficiency, and knowledge in the following areas:
General network:
Be actively engaged in the design, deployment, scaling, and management of enterprise networks
Strong fundamental knowledge of IP addressing and subnetting schemas necessary to build local area networks
 
Strong fundamental knowledge of dynamic routing protocols (focus/emphasis on Open Shortest Path First [OSPF] and Border Gateway Protocol [BGP])
A foundational understanding of wired and wireless Quality of Service (QoS) mechanisms, packet queue operations, and practical implementations
Be experienced with the design and configuration of IPsec and associated Virtual Private Network (VPN) technologies
A foundational understanding of network security controls/protocols, network management best practices, and data security
A foundational understanding of best practice Radio Frequency (RF) design principles and practical implementations
A foundational knowledge of wireless security best practices centered around access control (802.1x) and spectrum security through Wireless Intrusion Detection Systems (WIDS) and Wireless Intrusion Prevention Systems (WIPS)
A foundational command of standard logging/monitoring protocols (focus/emphasis on Simple Network Management Protocol [SNMP], syslog, and webhooks) and related implementation components or tools
Be familiar with and have basic knowledge of Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) and related languages/formats (REST, JavaScript Object Notation [JSON])
