Cisco CIPT1 8.0: CUCM Call Routing Components and Calling Privileges

Overview/Description
The dial plan is one of the key elements of an IP telephony system. It's at the core of the user experience because it defines the rules that govern how a user reaches any destination. The most important components of a dial plan are endpoint addressing and path selection. Calling privileges are another important dial plan component. Calling privileges are used to implement class of service (CoS). Based on the calling device or line, some destinations are permitted to access call-routing table entries; other destinations are not. This course describes endpoint addressing, digit analysis, and path selection in a Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) deployment and details the configuration tools that can be used to implement calling privileges and discusses different usage scenarios.

Target Audience
Anyone wishing to obtain the Cisco Certified Network Professional CCNP Voice designation that validates the skills and knowledge required in order to create a voice solution that is transparent, scalable, and manageable. Established IT professionals with a good understanding of networking and Cisco technology, the basics of digital interfaces, PSTN, and VoIP, fundamental knowledge of converged voice and data networks, and the ability to configure Cisco IOS gateways with traditional and VoIP call legs. Candidates who have completed the Cisco Certified Network Associate Voice (CCNA Voice) Certification which is obtained by completing the Introducing Cisco Voice and Unified Communications Administration 640-461 (ICOMM) v8.0 exam.
