Cisco UCS: Implementation & Configuration Hands-On Labs
Section 1. Cisco UCS: Initial Setup & Configuration
In this section, the labs will guide you through the steps to setup a pair of Cisco UCS Fabric Interconnects in a cluster. Then Chassis/Connectivity policies will be configured to discover & take inventory of the blades & rack mount servers.
Section 2. Cisco UCS: Network Configuration
The "Unified" Network feature of Cisco UCS will be utilized to configure network connectivity to upstream switches.
vNICs Initial/Updating templates will be covered followed by tracing the network Virtual interface Paths from a blade right up to an upstream switch.
Cisco Virtual Port Channels will be configured between the Fabric interconnects & Nexus switches and finally Disjoint Layer 2 Network connectivity will be covered.
Section 3. Cisco UCS: Storage Configuration (iSCSI,FCoE,FC)
The "Unified" Storage feature of Cisco UCS will be utilized to configure iSCSI storage with an upstream Storage Appliance followed by configuring Appliance Ports for Direct Attached iSCSI Storage.
FCoE & FC Direct Attached labs will also be covered. Each of these storage topics will wrap up with labs involving configuration of ESXi 6.x to Boot from iSCS/FCoE/FC storage.
Section 4. Cisco UCS: Service Profile Configuration
The awesomeness of Cisco UCS will shine. In this section utilizing Service Profiles, blades & rack mount servers will be configured to achieve "Statelessness & Portability" .
Section 5. Cisco UCS: RBAC, AAA, Organization & Locales
Role Based Access Controls & Authentications via MS Active Directory,TACACS+ & RADIUS will be covered in this section. Then we will explore how multi-tenancy in Cisco UCS can be achieved using Organizations & Locales.
Section 6. Cisco UCS: Configure Key Management
In this section we will see how an enterprise Public Key Infrastructure can be utilized by Cisco UCS for creating Key Rings & Trusted points.
Section 7. Cisco UCS: Firmware Management
Cisco periodically release new firmware for the various UCS components. These set of labs will guide you through the steps of upgrading the firmware for UCS Manager, Fabric Interconnects & blades.
Section 8. Cisco UCS: Rack Server Configuration
Finally in this section, the labs will concentrate on standalone C-Series servers management. Network/Storage Connectivity, Firmware management.
