Course Content

Implementing Cisco Unified Communications Manager, Part 1 (CIPT1) v8.0 prepares you for implementing a Cisco Unified Communications Manager solution at a single-site environment. This course focuses primarily on Cisco Unified Communications Manager version 8.0, which is the call routing and signaling component for the Cisco Unified Communications solution. You will perform post-installation tasks, configure Cisco Unified Communications Manager, implement Media Gateway Control Protocol (MGCP) and H.323 gateways, and build dial plans to place on-net and off-net phone calls. You will also implement media resources, IP Phone Services, Cisco Unified Communications Manager native presence, and Cisco Unified Mobility.

Course Objectives

Upon completing this course, the learner will be able to meet these overall objectives:

  • Describe Cisco Unified Communications Manager, including its functions, architecture, deployment and redundancy options, and how to install or upgrade.
  • Perform Cisco Unified Communications Manager initial configuration and user management.
  • Configure Cisco Unified Communications Manager to support on-cluster calling.
  • Implement PSTN access in Cisco Unified Communications Manager and to build a dial plan in a single-site Cisco.
  • Implement Cisco Unified Communications Manager media resources.
  • Implement Cisco Unified Communications Manager features and applications.

CIPT2

Prerequisites

The knowledge and skills that a learner must have before attending this course are as follows:

  • Working knowledge of converged voice and data networks.
  • Working knowledge of the MGCP, SIP, and H.323 protocols and their implementation on Cisco IOS gateways.
  • Ability to configure and operate Cisco routers and switches.
  • Ability to configure and operate Cisco Unified Communications Manager in a single-site environment.

Course Content

Implementing Cisco Unified Communications Manager, Part 2 (CIPT2) v8.0 prepares you for implementing Cisco Unified Communications solution in a multisite environment. It covers globalized call routing, Cisco Service Advertisement Framework (SAF) and Call Control Discovery (CCD), tail-end hop-off (TEHO), Cisco Unified Survivable Remote Site Telephony (SRST), and mobility features such as Cisco Device Mobility and Cisco Extension Mobility. You will apply a dial plan for a multisite environment including TEHO, 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) including Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) Preconditions and automated alternate routing (AAR).
