CVOICE (Cisco Voice over IP)
Duration
Five Days
Prepares you for Cisco Exam 642-432 CVOICE
We have enhanced this comprehensive Authorized Cisco course to introduce you to the latest Cisco Voice over IP (VoIP) technologies and give you the skills and techniques to optimize your Cisco hardware for real performance and savings.
We have added the required CVF v1.0 "Cisco Voice over IP Fundamentals" content to the standard 4-day CVOICE course. We realize that comprehensive hands-on training is fundamental to your goals, and we offer a unique, real-world CVOICE lab environment that teaches you how to build and test a tsophisticated IP telephony network that you can use as a template for a real deployment. We have set ourselves apart from other Cisco training providers by enhancing our CVOICE hands-on labs to include a real dial plan and Class of Service for calling out to the PSTN, branch offices, and PBXs. You'll configure CVOICE Gateways using three different call control protocols while mastering the connection details for traditional telephony. The traditional telephony fundamentals are taught on our exclusive, additional first day. You'll experience real-world connections to PBXs, Key Telephone Systems, and the Public Switched Telephone network. You will configure your router/gateway equipment to connect to our public dial plan network, using different call control protocols and procedures, demonstrating what you learn in class. No other training company offers a unique, real-world lab solution like ours.
Our voice network labs use the latest hardware and software.
- 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 are used throughout the network
- Gain experience with recent stable IOS release: 12.4.9T
- Configure H.323 gateway and gatekeeper single and multizone environments
- Configure Session Initiation Protocol
- Configure Media Gateway Control Protocol
- Explore router DSP configuration: PVDM2-32 cards in every 2811 router
- Experience G.711, G.723, and G.729 voice coding schemes
- Configure Call Admission Control three different ways
- Configure proper Caller ID
- Configure QoS for voice
- Every router has 2xFXS, 2xFXO, and 2xT1 ports (PRI and T1-CAS) as well as serial ports for WAN connectivity
All of our IP telephony courses provide a simulated PSTN.
- Every pod has internal and external phones
- Build and test a real dial plan including:
- 911
- 3-digit service codes: 411, 511, etc.
- 7-digit local numbers: 681-1901
- 10-digit local numbers: 416-681-1901
- 11-digit long distance numbers: 1-733-802-1901
- International numbers: 011441902
- Configure and test all dial peers as appropriate
And just like in a real network:
- The same simulated PSTN is accessible through both PRI and FXO ports
- The same simulated PSTN is accessible through all four clusters providing failover scenarios for bandwidth and connectivity problems
- Different area codes are deployed at all sites (two per cluster)
- Gateway connections to simulated PBX systems are configured by the students
What You'll Learn
- Exclusive - Similarities and differences between traditional public switched telephone network (PSTN) voice networks and IP Telephony solutions
- Configure the call flows for Plain Old Telephone Service (POTS), VoIP, and default dial peers
- How to choose between centralized and decentralized call control and signaling protocols
- Analog and digital voice characteristics
- Processes and standards for voice digitization, compression, digital signaling, and Fax transport as they relate to VoIP networks
- Voice encodings and signaling
- Quality of Service (QoS) techniques for "non-quality-of-service" networks (such as IP and Frame Relay)
- Voice Over IP environments (SIP, H.323, MGCP)
- Integrated voice/data network design and optimization
- Voice/data network configuration and troubleshooting
- Emerging voice technologies
- Voice quality issues and the QoS solutions used to solve them
Who Needs to Attend
- Technical professionals responsible for VoIP including voice/data integration.
