Duration 4 Days 24 CPD hours This course is intended for The primary audience for this course is as follows: Phone Network Administrators Phone Network Engineers Data System Administrators Entry-level Network Engineers Channel Partners/Resellers, Customers, Employees Overview Describe the Cisco Unified Communications Manager network, service, and features Understand the importance of and configuration of redundancy and high availability in the enterprise network Describe user configuration and the user web interface Explain basic phone options and the use of BAT Explain the route plan and on-net/off-net calling Describe the various media resources, including conferencing and MOH Describe the basic phone features and use of hunt groups Administering Cisco Unified Communications Manager (ACUCM) v12.0 is a 3-day training program that provides system administrators and networking professionals with an understanding of the Cisco Unified Communications Manager System. The Cisco IT training course teaches the concepts of IP telephony based in system administration, including its function, features, and configuration. This is an entry-level IP telephony course that begins with the basic concepts of IP telephony and very quickly moves the learner forward into an understanding of system concepts: clustering, creation of phones and users, route plans, digit manipulation, media resources, and phone features, which are all important to supporting IP telephony in the enterprise network. The course focuses on Cisco Unified Communications Manager version v12.x.The course is geared to individuals that will be using and managing the system and performing administration for Level 1 and Level 2 support. Level 1 support is geared toward supporting phone users and making moves, adds, and changes to the desktop phone environment. Level 2 support is oriented to supporting changes in the organization, such as opening new office locations or relocating departments. The Cisco training course does not cover issues of initial deployment, new cluster deployment or international deployments. Also, the course does not cover issues with the underlying network that involves routers, switches, or Cisco IOS software configuration.
