In this self-paced walk-in lab, get hands-on with Cisco Catalyst Center 3.2 and capabilities designed to simplify day-to-day network operations. Begin with a tour of the platform, then make a clean, audited single-device change using Per-Device Configuration — without manually accessing the CLI or creating a separate template. From there, scale configuration management with Campus Automation using Networks, Device Groups, and reusable Configuration Profiles.

Learn how Catalyst Center can use known-good configurations to build these profiles, detect configuration drift across devices, and provision standardized settings to improve consistency across the campus. Turn one-time checks into continuous governance with rule-based compliance and the Compliance Dashboard, then safely delegate site-level access with Site-Based Role-Based Access Control (RBAC). Finally, interact with the built-in AI Assistant using plain-language questions to monitor health, analyze network insights, and accelerate troubleshooting. Leave with a practical understanding of how Catalyst Center 3.2 can improve visibility, strengthen governance, standardize configurations, and simplify operations across campus networks.
