Instructor Bio

Hi, I’m Salman — 2× CCIE (ENT & DC, #56363),

ex-Cisco TAC; currently an Expert Professional Services (NCE) consultant.

I’ve worked in networking since 2010, designing, migrating, and automating Cisco Data Center environments for global enterprises. My specialty is Cisco ACI, VXLAN EVPN, Routing, Switching, and Automation.

My teaching style is lab-first and production-minded: clear mental models reproducible labs templates/CSV files repeatable playbooks. You’ll learn how to design, implement, automate, and verify, with the gotchas I’ve seen in the field.


What you can expect: step-by-step labs, deep diagrams, downloadable resources, and exam-level aligned to CCIE Data Center skills—so you can ship reliable networks faster and with confidence.
