Cisco Digital Network Architecture Center Modules
(Design Module)Part.2
- In this article, we are going to talk about the Cisco Digital Network Architecture Center design Module.
Cisco DNA Center gives us the flexibility and availability to configure multiple fabric sites and manage all of them through DNAC (Centralization Point).
- The continuity of IT operations is the basis of today’s business environment. Almost every single decision made by the business is either based on IT data or done using the IT platform. And so, the Design, security, availability, and performance of the IT infrastructure are the key foundation of a solid business and service environment.
- After we finished the DNAC deployment in the previous article we will start to configure DNAC, We will start by design module as I mentioned in the title.
