Nokia Services Architecture

Course number: 3FL30636AAAAZZZZA
Course duration: 4 days
Price: €3,200

Course overview

This course introduces Nokia’s implementation of the service concept. Students are walked through the steps for deploying virtual private network (VPN) and residential services in a service provider’s multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) network. Several services supported in the Nokia service routing portfolio are included - Internet enhanced service (IES), virtual private wire service (VPWS), virtual private LAN service (VPLS), and virtual private routed network service (VPRN). It covers the coupling of a layer-2 service with a layer-3 interface, including spoke termination of one service into another and routed VPLS. Some troubleshooting of service-related issues and debugging is covered. It also covers service mirroring and some service OAM commands. All use cases and lab exercises are based on the model-driven command-line interface (MD-CLI).
