Tomorrow, December 6th 2013, at 10:00 PST (GMT 18:00) I will be running a free live online session on Introduction to DMVPN for CCIE R&S v5 Candidates.  You can sign-up for this seminar here.  Additionally the link to attend is available at the top of the dashboard when you login to the INE Members Site.

This session is the first of many to help candidates transition from the current CCIE R&S v4 Blueprint to the recently announced CCIE R&S v5 Blueprint that goes live on June 4^th 2014. We will continue to run additional sessions in the future on new topics that have been added to the CCIE R&S v5 Blueprint, such as IPv6 First Hop Security, IPsec LAN-to-LAN tunnels, GET VPN, IGP Convergence & Scalability, and BGP Convergence & Scalability, just to name a few.  These sessions are not only applicable to CCIE R&S v5 candidates, but also to those pursuing the CCNA, CCNP, or CCIE Security tracks, as well as for everyday engineers looking to apply these technologies in their production environments.

Tomorrow’s session will focus on the theory of what Dynamic Multipoint VPN (DMVPN) is, what problems it was designed to solve, and where it fits in the overall network design as compared to other technologies such as MPLS Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS) or MPLS Layer 3 VPNs.  The session will also include live implementation examples of DMVPN on the Cisco IOS CLI.  Expect this session to run somewhere around 2 – 3 hours in length.

I hope to see you there!
