CCRS - Cisco Collaboration Systems Release (CCRS)

All SLI Scheduled Dates Are Guaranteed to Run!

CCRS10 is a two-day, instructor-led course intended to give administrators and engineers hands-on experience with Cisco collaboration version 10.5 systems including Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM), Cisco Instant Messaging and Presence (IM&P), Cisco Unity Connection (CUC), and the current version of Cisco Video Communications Server (VCS) deployed as Mobile and Remote Access (MRA) also known as Expressway. This course is lab-intensive and students must have significant experience with previous versions of CUCM, CUC and Presence (IM&P) to attend.
The course will begin with an overview of the enhancements made to the major components of Cisco’s Collaboration Systems since version 8.0. Then students will implement many of the most popular new features in CUCM including streamlined deployment of new devices, enhancements to CUCM dial plan, and major intercluster services. Next students will deploy Unified Messaging and Video Messaging via Cisco Unity Connection. Integration of CUCM and IM&P v10.5 and deployment of Jabber 9.7 rounds out the exploration of core Cisco collaboration components. Finally, students will explore and configure Mobile and Remote Access/Expressway allowing devices external to the collaboration network to register to CUCM and gain access to enterprise collaboration services.
