Course Length:
5 Days
Course Description:
The Cisco Certified Voice Professional certification is a new certification focusing on Voice over IP technologies. The CCVP consists of 5 examinations and a current CCNA certification. CCVP Boot Camp course is split into three - one week classes. Each class runs at an accelerated pace, with extended hours, 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM each day. Each class covers two of the six courses needed to pass the CCVP examinations. The three weeks combined focus on presenting the core competencies associated with Cisco IP Telephony converged networks. The purpose of these courses is to provide the student with adequate knowledge needed to pass five key certification tests required to attain the advanced Cisco Certified Voice Professional (CCVP) certification.
Who Should Attend:
This course is for Network Engineers who will be designing IP Telephony solutions that include the deployment of Cisco Call Manager software and associated VoIP equipment.
Benefits of Attendance:
Upon completion of this course, students will be able to:
- Describe the similarities and differences between traditional PSTN voice networks and IP telephony solutions
- Explain the processes and standards for voice digitization, compression, digital signaling, and fax transport as they relate to VoIP networks
- Configure voice interfaces on Cisco voice-enabled equipment for connection to traditional, nonpacketized telephony equipment
- Configure the call flows for POTS, VoIP, and default dial peers
- Describe the fundamentals of VoIP and identify challenges and solutions regarding its implementation
- Compare centralized and decentralized call control and signaling protocols
- Describe specific voice quality issues and the QoS solutions used to solve them
- Explain the need to implement QoS and methods for implementing and managing QoS
- Identify and describe different models used for ensuring QoS in a network and explain key IP QoS mechanisms used to implement the models
- Explain the use of MQC and AutoQoS to implement QoS on the network
- Classify and mark network traffic to implement a policy defining QoS requirements
- Use Cisco QoS queuing mechanisms to manage network congestion
- Use Cisco QoS congestion avoidance mechanisms to reduce the effects of congestion on the network
- Use Cisco QoS traffic policing and traffic-shaping mechanisms to effectively limit the rate of network traffic
- Use Cisco link efficiency mechanisms to improve the bandwidth efficiency of low-speed WAN links
- Select the most appropriate QoS mechanisms for providing QoS using Cisco best practices in service provider and enterprise networks
Prerequisites:
Students need to have a working knowledge of LANs, WANs, and IP switching and routing, basic internetworking skills taught in the Interconnecting Cisco Network Devices (ICND) course, or its equivalent, and knowledge of traditional public switched telephone network (PSTN) operations and voice fundamentals.
