Application Centric Infrastructure (ACI) is a Data Center Architecture with centralized programmability and policy driven capabilities. Ansible is a simple automation language that uses the concept of playbooks to automate configurations of ACI using modules designed for Ansible for configuration provisioning. In this session, we will introduce Ansible and concepts such as playbooks and modules. We will then look at demo of how Ansible can be used to automate ACI provisioning of Tenants as well as looking at deploying a three tier application. We finally will look at scaling ACI playbooks.

Formation d'instructeurs netacad - 2020

Netacad est un programme interactif de formation qui propose des contenus en lien avec de nombreuses thématiques de l'IT telles que l'infrastructure, la sécurité, la programmation et les systèmes d'exploitation.

L'accès que les académies netacad peuvent proposer à leurs apprenants nécessite que les instructeurs qui dispensent le contenu disposent d'une accréditation.

Les instructeurs accrédités se voient bénéficier de plusieurs atouts pour déployer une formation flexible au regard du profil de leurs apprenants: cours en ligne multilingues, évaluations alignées sur les contenus, préparations de cours, dont les supports de projection et les laboratoires pratiques. Le contenu et la formation bénéficient d'une mise à jour régulière et sont internationalement reconnus. Par ailleurs, les accréditations ont une validité mondiale.

En Wallonie, le programme se verrait accéléré si davantage d'instructeurs étaient accrédités. Soutenu par Digital Wallonia et par Cisco CSR, BiASC est en mesure de proposer à de nombreux instructeurs de participer à un programme d'accréditation, et ce, à des conditions particulièrement intéressantes, sans frais dans la plupart des cas.

IT Essentials, CCNA et CCNA security sont les programmes ciblés par cette action d'intensification.

Les profils de formateurs ciblés sont des formateurs liés à une académie netacad existante, des enseignants du secondaire, du supérieur, mais aussi des anciens étudiants ayant finalisé un parcours scolaire à finalité informatique.

N'hésitez pas à vous manifester afin d'obtenir d'information: Yvan Rooseleer <yvan.rooseleer@biasc.be>

BiASC Activities, Workshops & Conferences - Spring 2020

It is possible to enroll for workshops by clicking on this hyperlink 
More information clicking the link below.

In view of health and safety issues BiASC is looking into possible alternatives for the planned events. Please continue registering and you will be informed in due time.

During the spring season of 2020 BiASC will organize activities and workshops to prepare NetAcad instructors for the new curriculum. Also, we will take part in NetAcad Days at Cisco Live Barcelona and at the Cisco Offices in Amsterdam, Brussels and Iceland. 

It is strategically important that Networking Academy Instructors can train their students for the certification level to make sure they are empowered with up to date skills and ready for the job market, thus increasing their employability.

Instructors attending the bridging workshops and the ".Be Netacad" conference on 24 April (or equivalent) will be ready to teach the new materials of CCNAv7. Workshops are organized at multiple dates.  It is possible to specifically propose a date and location for groups of 6 attendees.

On 7 November 2019 BiASC and Cisco Networking Academy intend to organize plenary sessions and technical workshops in order to inform Cisco Networking Academies about the ongoing evolution in the certification landscape. The date has changed from 8 to 7 november.

SAVE THE DATE

• The main driving force of this event is the evolution of Cisco certification tracks and Networking Academy content.
• Apart from the keynotes the conference will be very practical with breakout sessions. 
• Sessions will be in three languages (Dutch, English and French)
  As English is the official language of Cisco Systems it is possible that international speakers will use the English language.
• Another similar event in the Dutch language will be organized at Cisco Amsterdam on 30 October. Also Belgian Academies are welcome there.

In the next few weeks you will be informed about the details of the Networking Academy meetings.

Takeaways from the Keynotes and Breakout Sessions

• We are entering a new wave in Cisco industrial certification, CCNA becoming more generic, and allowing professionals to choose a specialism. What you have learned until now remains relevant.
• Career specializations are divided in the following groups: Enterprise; Security; Collaboration; DataCenter & Service Provider.
• The main Cisco NetAcad learning tracks will be divided in two groups: exploration and career-oriented.
• The career-ready tracks will be CCNA Enterprise; Security & CyberSecurity; Internet of Things & DevNet.

Next Academic Year 2019-2020

• Cisco Academies do not have to adapt their planned schedule for the following academic year.
• In November the new online courses will be ready for evaluation.
• BiASC and Cisco NetAcad will be providing timely information to member academies.
• From November onwards specific workshops will be planned by Cisco and BiASC to help everyone through the transition.

 

 

IoT Security Game

The IoT Security Game will be demonstrated during the next NetAcad event at the Cisco BeLux office on 14 June 2019
URL: https://honim.typepad.com/biasc/2019/03/cisco-belux-netacad-workshop-day-agenda-schedule.html

Cisco NetAcad into Gamification

The IoT Security Game is a Catch The Flag type of cybersecurity game, that helps students to reinforce their existing cybersecurity skills by applying them into an isolated networking environment with an end to end IoT System. In the game, students re-use all the White Hat Hacker skills they have learned in the IoT Security course to discover threats and recommend mitigation strategies in a set of challenging missions that mimic real world situations. To successfully solve the missions, students need to actively collaborate within their team, but to win, they need to compete on the score points with other teams. The competition aspects and the game dynamics create a fun and exciting activity that motivates students to learn more.

Elements necessary for the game

• Game Controller Raspberry Pi 
• Cloud Services Simulator Raspberry Pi 
• Kali Linux VM
• End Device
• Game Central Switch
