Course: Converged Services Platform
Description
Provides a solid understanding of how to implement switching solutions
using SwitchKit and the Converged Services Platform. This in-depth
course addresses CSP hardware architecture and components, software
architecture, software features, and API messages. The course also
provides a solid working knowledge of SwitchKit. The students perform
hands-on lab exercises to initialize and configure the system; implement
system redundancy; and perform basic call processing using a Switchkit
application. Lab exercises are SwitchKit-based and thoroughly address
all features of the SwitchKit OA&M system.
Audience
Application developers and network engineers who will architect
and design switching solutions using Converged Services Platforms;
systems engineers and experienced switch technicians who require
a solid understanding of switch operation.
Length
Five days
