NetApp – ONTAP SMB Administration (CIFSAD)

This course is intended for those who provide support and administration for a CIFS environment on NetApp storage systems running the Data ONTAP operating system.

CIFS Administration course extends the CIFS information found in the Data ONTAP 7-Mode Administration and Data ONTAP Cluster-Mode Administration. This course will review CIFS (SBM 1.0) while exploring in more detail SMB 2.0 and SMB 2.1. The lab exercises will accomplish using Data ONTAP Cluster-Mode although 7-Mode configuration is discussed in lecture.
