Advanced Cisco Voice over IP and QoS

Dive into an extensive 11-hour course on advanced Cisco Voice over IP (VoIP) and Quality of Service (QoS) technologies. Master the intricacies of voice gateways, dial peers, and various VoIP protocols including H.323, SIP, and MGCP. Explore UC deployment models, ISDN PRI and analog voice services configuration, and T1 CAS services. Learn to implement and troubleshoot Cisco Unified Communications Manager Express (CUCME) systems. Delve into dial plan fundamentals, digit manipulation techniques, and class of restriction concepts. Gain expertise in Cisco Unified Border Element (CUBE) and gatekeeper configurations. Understand QoS policies, IntServ and DiffServ models, and implement Cisco's QoS Baseline Model. Cover advanced topics such as classification, marking, queuing, traffic shaping, and policing. Conclude with hands-on experience configuring Cisco Auto QoS and exploring baseline QoS reference configurations.
