Cisco Stealthwatch 2-day Hands-on Course

Description

The goal of this workshop is to provide a Field Engineer with the skills and methodology required to successfully install and configure Stealthwatch. By completing the included labs, you will deploy several Stealthwatch appliances in a simulated customer environment. The scenarios will walk you through the process of the initial configuration of the appliances within the solution, as well as integrating them into the customer environment.

These hands-on labs use the Stealthwatch Management Console (SMC), Flow Collector (FC), Flow Sensor (FS), and UDP Director (UDPD) appliances. At the end of the training labs, you will have a fully functional Stealthwatch environment.

Alarm tuning is not in scope for this workshop, although Response Management and Stealthwatch System Alarms are covered as it is required during a typical initial Stealthwatch implementation.
