Description

The Cisco Network Services Orchestrator (NSO) Advance Python Programmers (NSO300) v4.0 course continues the learning journey of the NSO Essentials for Programmers and Network Architects (NSO201) course with NSO to include customizing templates with Python programming, Docker deployment, and Nano services. You will learn to create advanced services using the NSO application framework and Python scripting with both new and existing Layer 3 Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) VPN services. You will also learn how to manage and scale these services to reduce operation consumption, and increase both security and available physical space, since virtualized network functions (VNFs) replace physical hardware. You will use Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) orchestration features, and Cisco Elastic Services Controller (ESC) to manage virtualized network functions.

Objectives

After completing this course, you should be able to:

  • Describe the NSO application framework
  • Deploy NSO in Docker
  • Implement Python- and template-based service
  • Describe service lifecycle integration
  • Describe the implementation of Layer 3 MPLS VPN service for a new service deployment
  • Implement Nano services
  • Describe the implementation of Layer 3 MPLS VPN service for an existing deployment
  • Describe managed services
  • Implement stacked services
  • Describe how to scale service orchestration
  • Describe the European Telecommunications Standards Institute Management and Orchestration (ETSI MANO) Framework
  • Manage VNF Lifecycle with Cisco ESC
  • Implement NFV
