Cisco Validated Design (CVD) Guides are comprehensive, design and implementation guides. The validated systems and solutions have undergone thorough architectural design development and lab testing, and provide guidance for the introduction of new technologies, emerging architectures, or the enhancement of the customer’s network.
To qualify as a Cisco Validated Design Guide, the design must meet the following criteria:
- Products that are incorporated in the design are generally available.
- Deployment, operation, and management of components within the system are repeatable processes.
