This on-site training class is also available as Public Schedule Seminar.

CVOICE - Implementing Cisco Unified Communications Voice over IP and QoS v8.0

Course Description/Agenda


In this course, you'll gain an understanding of converged voice and data networks and the challenges faced by various network technologies. Addressing design, planning, and deployment practices, you will gain comprehensive hands-on experience configuring and deploying VoIP networks.

In addition to the knowledge and skills required to integrate gateways into an enterprise VoIP network, you'll learn how to build and test a sophisticated IP telephony network that you can use as a template for a real deployment.

The course includes a comprehensive full day on Quality of Service (QoS), in which you'll learn to configure QoS to support real-time traffic.

We've extended the hours of this course-to 8:30am - 6:00pm each day-to give you the most complete training experience possible and to ensure you have time to absorb and fully grasp the in-depth content that will be covered.

What You'll Learn

  • VoIP, components of a VoIP network, VoIP protocols, special requirements for VoIP calls, and Codecs
  • Configure gateway interconnections to support VoIP and PSTN calls
  • Basic signaling protocols used on voice gateways
  • Configure a gateway to support calls using different call control and signaling protocols
  • Define a dial plan, describing the purpose of each dial plan component, and implement a dial plan on a voice gateway
  • Implement a Cisco Unified Border Element (CUBE) gateway to connect to an Internet Telephony Service Provider
  • Exclusive - Investigate the use of various traditional telephony connections, such as FXS, FXO, E&M, T1 (CAS and PRI), and E1 (CAS and PRI)
  • Configure and troubleshoot Cisco's new ISR routers (2811s) and explore their DSP configuration (PVDM2-32 cards)
  • Configure H.323 gateways and gatekeepers and review their functions and operation
  • Configure Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) and Media Gateway Control Protocol (MGCP)
  • Experience G.711, G.723, and G.729 voice coding schemes
  • Configure Call Admission Control three different ways
  • Configure proper Caller ID
  • Experience real-world connections to PBXs, Key Telephone Systems, and the PSTN
  • Configure your router/gateway equipment to connect to our public dial plan network using different call control protocols and procedures
