The SonicWall Network Security Professional (SNSP) for SonicOS 7 curriculum expands on the topics covered in SNSA for SonicOS 7 and features advanced SonicWall firewall configuration and administration tasks aimed at helping enterprises adapt to dynamic security environments.
The new SNSP curriculum includes an enhanced and deeper scope of the SonicOS 7 features and functionality, as well as changes in the learning and delivery methodologies, to better balance the professional needs of the students and the business requirements for network and cyber security.
The Virtual Instructor-Led Training (VILT) class connects the student with our experienced instructors in a live-online classroom using hands-on labs. The SNSP is designed to be a flexible and learner-centric blended curriculum that combines online learning with hands-on, instructor-led classroom training:
eLearning*: This course begins with fully immersive, self-paced online training modules that showcase the unique features and functionality of SonicOS 7 in a simulated application environment. These training modules also include interactive simulations that will guide you in leveraging the unique NGFW capabilities of a SonicWall NSv firewall.
Instructor-Led Training: The two-day instructor-guided portion of the curriculum provides a suite of intensive ILT scenario-based sessions wherein you learn, in a risk-free lab environment, how to configure the SonicWall Next-Gen NSv firewall for network security, control and visibility. You can find more information in the SNSP Course Description and Technical Guide.
*Activation keys are required to access the eLearning course modules, and you will be sent by your instructor one week before the class when you enroll.
