Overview
Skills Taught
Audience
 Prerequisites
Outline
Duration:6 Classes
Skill Level:Basic
Certifications:CCNP
Delivery Type:Expert Live, Expert Encore

Description
The Optimizing Converged Cisco Networks (ONT) 1.0 course is highly recommended for any individual responsible in any way for the maintenance, operation, or troubleshooting of voice over IP (VoIP) networks, where quality of service (QoS) is a design consideration. Additionally, the ONT 1.0 course is targeted toward those responsible for securing or managing wireless local area networks (WLANs). This training is also recommended for individuals seeking certification as a Cisco Certified Network Professional (CCNP).

Skills Taught
Upon completion of the Optimizing Converged Cisco Networks (ONT) 1.0 course, the student will be able to:
  • Describe the converged network requirements within the Cisco conceptual network models, with a focus on performance and wireless security
  • Describe Cisco VoIP implementations
  • Describe the need to implement QoS and the methods for implementing QoS on a converged network using Cisco routers and Catalyst switches
  • Explain the key IP QoS mechanisms used to implement the DiffServ QoS model
  • Configure Cisco AutoQoS for Enterprise
  • Describe and configure wireless security and basic wireless management
Audience
This course is recommended for any learner that desires to learn more about Cisco networking – especially the implementation of VoIP, QoS, and wireless technologies. This course is also recommended for any student interested in professional level Cisco certifications or beyond.
