The mock network in the book coincides with networks that Jeremy sets up in his CBT nuggets labs.Overall a very good read with good detail on how to set up cme and cue on a lab network. This book is well written and Jeremy does a good job relaying what you need to know to take the test. These books follow well with Jeremy's CBT Nugget of 640-460.
Authors Jeremy Cioara, Michael J. Then, the authors examine feature after feature that are supported by the CME router. Finally, they discuss the process of provisioning the UC500 Series for Small Business. Do you need help in trying to pass the Implementing Cisco IOS Unified Communications (IIUC) exam (640-460). This most excellent book has been written with both a real-world and certification-study approach at the same time. They continue by focusing on the process to create and assign directory numbers to Cisco IP phones. Perhaps more importantly, as you read through this great boo and study the configuration examples and exam tips, you will have a true sense of understanding of how you can deploy a VoIP system, while at the same time feeling equipped to pass the CCNA Voice certification exam.
Krake, have done an outstanding job of writing a book that is also intended to tremendously increase your chances of passing the CCNA Voice certification exam.Authors Cioara, Cavanaugh and Krake, begin with a discussion of the traditional telephony world. Then, the authors introduce the concept of Unified Communications (UC) and explain how the Smart Business Communications System (SBCS) is positioned to deliver UC to the small-medium business (SMB) market. They continue by discussing the configuration of the Cisco Unity Express platform. Then, the authors focus on the components of a Cisco VoIP network. The authors also introduce the Cisco Express (CUE), describing the differences between hardware platforms, the software components, and licensing options.
If you do, then this book is for you. Next, they examine the connections to the outside world through the PSTN or over an IP network. The authors also cover everything you need to know to get Cisco Unified Communication Manager Express (CME) ready to support IP phones. Cavanaugh, and Kris A. Next, they discuss the preparation and base configuration of the LAN infrastructure to support VoIP devices.
I recommend it for anyone wishing to go the CCVP route, that hasn't yet started on their professional exams. Very useful. Fills in the gaps between CCNA and CCVP very smartly.
Plus after 6/09 it will be required anyway. I have completed some of the exams for CCVP, but have decided to go ahead and get my CCNA VOICE before finishing the rest of the CCVP track. This book seems to be very well laid out with tons of great reference material. Jeremy Cioara does a great job of covering the material and makes it into an easy read.
