PAIUCMTV - Implementing Cisco Unified Communications Manager for Cisco TelePresence Video

Course Description/Agenda

This course prepares you to implement a Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) solution that supports a Cisco TelePresence video conferencing solution. Focusing primarily on CUCM v8.0 and its call-routing and signaling component, you will perform CUCM post-installation tasks, such as:

• Configuring endpoints for deploying a Cisco TelePresence system onto a Cisco UC solution
• Configuring CUCM for a video network
• Implementing Media Gateway Control Protocol (MGCP) and H.323 gateways
• Building dial plans to place on-net and off-net phone calls
• Implementing QoS for internal calls, incoming PSTN calls, and outing PSTN calls

Note: This course does not cover the specific implementation of Cisco TelePresence solutions.

What You'll Learn

• CUCM, its functions, architecture, deployment, and redundancy options
• Perform CUCM initial configuration and user management
• Configure CUCM to support on-cluster calling
• Implement PSTN access in CUCM and build a dial plan in a single-site CUCM deployment
• How to secure and maintain a Cisco UC solution

Who Should Attend

• Video and network engineers who install Cisco TelePresence solutions
• Systems engineers who work with Cisco TelePresence solutions
