| Why Firefly? |
We take care to keep our courseware current and reflect as close as possible the latest general release of the technology. With this release, IASNS labs are now based on newer code than our competitors are delivering with the Cisco off-the-shelf courseware. This version of the firmware (NX-OS 5.2.6) also positions our customers to be ready for the DC-CCIE Lab exam. Key IASNS v4.4r1 updates covered in this course that are not covered in the standard version of this course include: DCNM-SAN Server installation Lab and Performance Manager using DCNM-SAN Lab.
