Implementing Cisco Unified Communications

CIPT2v6 : 5 Day Instructor-Led Course

Enhance your Cisco Unified Communications IP Telephony Skills

Implementing Cisco Unified Communications (CITP2) is an instructor-led training course presented by Cisco training partners to their end customers.  Course v6.0 for Unified Communications Manager Software (CUCM) v7.0 prepares you for the Cisco 642-456 CIPT2 v6.0 exam.

Prepare to configure a CUCM solution in a multisite environment. You will focus on Release 6.x/7.x, the call routing and signaling component for the Cisco Unified Communications solution. Learn to implement H.323 and Media Gateway Control Protocol (MGCP), use a Cisco Unified Border Element, and configure Survivable Remote Site Telephony (SRST), mobility features, and voice security.

Lab activities apply a dial plan for a multisite environment, configure survivability for remote sites during WAN failure, and implement solutions to reduce bandwidth requirements in the IP WAN. Learn to enable call admission control (CAC) and automated alternate routing (AAR), a feature that allows rerouting of calls over the public switched telephone network (PSTN) if no bandwidth is available. Work through labs for implementing CUCM Device Mobility, CUCM Extension Mobility, Cisco Unified Mobility, and voice security.
