Advanced AOS-CX Switching, Rev. 25.11

This 5-day course prepares you for the HPE Aruba Networking AOS-CX based ACX – Switching certification exams (Written Exam Code: HPE7-A09 and Practical Exam Code: HPE4-A53). Attending this course will teach you the advanced skills necessary to implement and operate enterprise-level HPE Aruba Networking switching solutions. You will build on the skills you learned at the Professional level to configure and manage modern, open standards based networking solutions using HPE Aruba Networking AOS-CX routing and switching technologies. In this course, you will learn about AOS-CX switch technologies, such as:

Switch virtualization with HPE Aruba Networking Virtual Switching eXtension (VSX)
Redundancy technologies such as Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP)
Link aggregation techniques, including Link Aggregation Protocol (LACP)
Securing port access with HPE Aruba Networking Dynamic Segmentation

This course is approximately 50% lecture and 50% hands-on lab exercises.
