The Designing Cisco Data Center Infrastructure (DCID 300-610) exam is a core component of the CCNP Data Center certification track and validates your expertise in designing modern, secure, and scalable data center infrastructures. This certification exam tests your ability to translate business and technical requirements into functional architectures across compute, storage, networking, and automation.

This course provides comprehensive coverage of the DCID exam blueprint, helping you build the skills necessary to design enterprise-grade data centers that meet today’s performance, security, and scalability demands. Through structured content and targeted exercises, you’ll strengthen your understanding of core design principles and best practices.

Key topics include:

• Network Design – fabric infrastructure, Layer 2/Layer 3 connectivity, and data center interconnects.

• Compute and Storage Networking – Cisco UCS, SAN solutions, and policy-driven architectures.

• Data Center Security – segmentation, access policies, and secure multi-tenancy strategies.

• High Availability and Scalability – redundancy, fault tolerance, and resilient designs.

• Automation and Assurance – Cisco ACI, programmability, and operational monitoring.
