The 600-212 SPLTE exam tests a candidate's knowledge of the skills required to understand and implement technologies, components, architecture fundamentals and products that are found in common LTE networks. The exam includes information on the evolved packet core components and their role in the LTE Evolved Packet System (EPS) to include the Evolved Packet Core network as well as the Radio Access Network (RAN). The exam also includes information on standardized technologies that are implemented on the Mobile Management Entity (MME) Serving Gateway (SGW) and the Packet Data Network Gateway (PGW), and their interaction with authentication, charging, and billing components in the network of the mobile operator, as well as, configuration details of how these components are implemented on the Cisco ASR 5000 Series system.
