Cisco Unified
Communications Manager Accelerated
(CUCM -CIPT 1&2 v6/7 )
5 days Instructor-Led


Course Overview
Cisco Unified Communications Manager Accelerated is an advanced
accelerated class that covers
configuring and administrating a Cisco Unified Communications Manager
solution in both single and multi-site environments. This course focuses
on Cisco Unified Communications Manager Release, administering and
managing services and users. It also includes H.323 and Media Gateway
Control Protocol (MGCP) gateway implementation, the use of a Cisco
Unified Border Element (IP to IP Gateway), and configuration of Cisco
Unified Communications Manager Express (CUCME) as a Survivable Remote
Site Telephony (SRST) site, and mobility features.
This course includes lab activities in which you will perform
post-installation tasks, configure Cisco Unified Communications Manager,
implement Media Gateway Control Protocol (MGCP) gateways, and build dial
plans to place on-net and off-net phone calls. You will also implement
media resources, Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP),
voice-mail integration to an existing Cisco Unity voice-mail system, and
numerous user telephone features. It also includes lab activities in
which you will apply a dial plan for a multi-site environment, configure
survivability for remote sites during WAN failure and implement
solutions to reduce bandwidth requirements in the IP WAN. You will also
enable call admission control (CAC) and automated alternate routing (AAR),
a feature that allows rerouting of calls over the public switched
telephone network (PSTN) due to low
bandwidth availability. Labs also cover Cisco Unified Communications
Manager Device Mobility, Extension Mobility, and Unified Mobility.
Prerequisites:
Before attending this course,
students need to have:
• Working knowledge of fundamental terms and concepts of computer
networking, to include LANs, WANs, and IP switching and routing
• Ability to configure and operate Cisco routers and switches and to
enable VLANs and DHCP
• Fundamental knowledge of converged voice and data networks
• Working knowledge of MGCP, session initiation protocol (SIP), and
H.323, as well as their implementation on Cisco IOS gateways
• Recommended pre-requisite training
• CCNA Certification
• QOS 2.2
• CVOICE 5.0
• GWGK v2.0 or CVOICE 6.0
The accelerated nature of this course requires that material be covered
expediently. Within the CUCM6 Accelerated training the following
materials from CIPT1 and CIPT2 will not be covered, thus the importance
of meeting the listed pre-requisites: Installing & Upgrading CUCM, MGCP
Gateway IOS Gateway support, Annunciator Essentials, Cisco Unified
Presence Policies & Policy Configuration, Cisco Unity Configuration for
CUCM Manager Integration, Implementing Call Applications on IOS
Gateways. Additionally, there are several sections from the CIPT1 and
CIPT2 materials that will be optional and may be covered to a lesser
degree based on time available, these are listed in the outline below as
optional. Optional topics and labs will be covered on a time-available
basis only.
Who will benefit from this course?
• Network designers, administrators,
engineers, managers and support staff responsible for maintaining and
configuring a voice and data network which includes the Cisco Unified
Communications Manager solution and/or require a fundamental
understanding of the issues and solutions related to implementation of
the Cisco Unified Communications Manager.
• Engineers who have one or more years of direct full time hands on
experience with this or any previous version of Cisco Call Manager or
Unified Communications Manager and voice gateways.
• Employees of a Cisco Channel Reseller Partner to build upon existing
skills on Cisco Unified
Communications Manager
