Managing Industrial Networks for Manufacturing with Cisco Technologies (IMINS2024) is a lab-intensive course, which helps you with the skills required to successfully implement and troubleshoot the most common industry standard protocols while leveraging best practices needed in security and Wireless technologies for today's industrial networks. The IMINS2024 course helps plant administrators, control system engineers and traditional network engineers in the manufacturing, process control, and oil and gas industries, who will be involved with the convergence of IT and Industrial networks.
This course is job-role specific and enables you to achieve competency and skills to configure, maintain, and troubleshoot industry-standard network protocols as well as wireless and security technologies to ensure that current infrastructures are maximized while developing a converged platform for flexibility to support future business outcomes. Students will be exposed to multiple industrial network technologies as well as products from Cisco and other industrial suppliers.Virtual Learning
This interactive training can be taken from any location, your office or home and is delivered by a trainer. This training does not have any delegates in the class with the instructor, since all delegates are virtually connected. Virtual delegates do not travel to this course, Global Knowledge will send you all the information needed before the start of the course and you can test the logins.
