We offer Brocade Ethernet Trainings with our partner ALuP IT Services GmbH.
The ETH 240 course is an in-depth study of server load balancing using Foundry Networks’ ServerIron products. The course focuses in on advanced techniques of implementing Server Load Balancing (SLB) in a variety of network topologies. It includes an intense study of SLB theory of operations, configuration, network design and troubleshooting. The course is labs (hands-on) intensive and as result is fast moving. Key topics include but are not limited to; Load Balancing, Global Server Load Balancing, Transparent Cache Switching and Layer 7 switching.
