Administering Cisco DNA Spaces (DNASPA)

Skip to Scheduled Dates

Course Overview

Cisco DNA Spaces helps resolve physical-space ‘blind spots’ in an organization. Through the Cisco wireless infrastructure, organizations can gain insights into how people and things move throughout their physical spaces. Based on these insights, organizations can drive operational efficiencies by monitoring and managing the location, movement, and utilization of assets.
