Course Overview

Top

This exclusive course offers a unique real-world environment focusing on the administration of a Cisco IP telephony, video and voice mail solution, including: Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) v12.5: Unity Connection v12.5: Cisco IM&P v12.5.

You will learn how to access the CUCM administrative pages to perform moves, adds, and changes of Cisco IP phones, while configuring users and associating them with phones. You will learn to configure simple features, such as DND, Music on Hold, MeetMe conferencing, and shared lines and barge, as well as access to CUCM user web pages. Configuring voice mail accounts for users, building a Jabber Client, and managing licenses using Prime License Manager with Cisco Unified Communications Manager v12.5 are also incorporated in this course.

You will gain a basic understanding of the route patterns that are used for dialing and Class of Service, controlling who can dial where, such as internal, local, long distance, and so forth.

The lab environment features a fully configured cluster with Headquarters and PSTN sites. A complete dial plan, including Class of Service, is deployed using the most recent CUCM features supporting simpler dial plan configuration. Our Unified Communications (UC) courses provide a simulated PSTN, enabling you to gain an understanding of the North American Numbering Plan (NANP) and the concepts associated with a variable-length on-net dial plan supporting multiple sites with overlapping extensions. In this class, the dial plan is preconfigured and allows you to apply Class of Service to phones and lines and to test calling to 3-digit, 7-digit, 10-digit, 11-digit, and international route patterns.
