1 Mdule Title Duratin : CNS-220-1I: Citrix NetScaler Traffic Management : 5 days Overview Designed fr students with little r n previus NetScaler experience, this curse is best suited fr individuals wh will be deplying r managing NetScaler envirnments. What s New: The curse has been cmpletely redevelped and imprves upn CNS-205: Citrix NetScaler Essentials and Netwrking via the fllwing: Imprved curse structure and flw t fcus n NetScaler essentials fr the first 3 days, and traffic management fr the remaining 2. A new lab envirnment, redesigned and built fr enhanced perfrmance. Incrprated curse feedback that has been gathered ver the last year. New cntent intrduced thrughut the curse. Part 1: NetScaler Essentials (Days 1-3) Learn the skills required t implement NetScaler cmpnents including secure Lad Balancing, High Availability, and NetScaler Management. At the end f the curse students will be able t cnfigure their NetScaler envirnments t address traffic delivery and management requirements including lad balancing, availability, and NetScaler peratin management. Part 2: NetScaler Traffic Management (Days 4-5) Learn the skills required t cnfigure and manage NetScaler Traffic Management features, including Cntent Switching, Traffic Optimizatin, and Glbal Server Lad Balancing. At the end f the curse students will be able t cnfigure their NetScaler envirnments t address efficient traffic switching and resilience requirements including cntent switching, traffic ptimizatin, and disaster recvery.
