Cisco Intent-Based Networking (IBNTRN)
Cisco IBN allows you to define what you want your network to do (the intent), and then the system automatically implements, monitors, and ensures that the network behaves accordingly. It combines automation, analytics, and machine learning to continuously align the network with business needs.
Key Features of Cisco Intent-Based Networking (IBNTRN)
- Translates business intent into network policies
- Automates provisioning and configuration
- Uses real-time telemetry and analytics
- Continuously verifies and assures network performance
- Integrates security and segmentation policies
Before learning IBNTRN, you should have a solid understanding of networking fundamentals such as routing, switching, and protocols. Familiarity with Cisco network infrastructure and basic network management tools is important. Some exposure to Cisco DNA Center and intent-based networking concepts is also beneficial.
