Training
Class: Multi-Services Platform (MSP)
Description
Provides a solid understanding of how to implement switching solutions
using SwitchKit and the Multi Services Platform. This in-depth course
addresses MSP hardware 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 configure, monitor, and provision the system. 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 Multi Services Platforms; systems
engineers and experienced switch technicians who require a solid
understanding of switch operation.
Course Length
2.5 days
Objectives
At the conclusion of this course, students will be able to:
- Describe MSP features, hardware components and software architecture
- Understand software features, including system redundancy
- Initialize the switch and download system software
- Initialize host-to-switch communications
- Describe SwitchKit architecture, features, and log files
- Create a MSP configuration using ClientView
- Perform MSP monitoring and provisioning tasks using ClientView
- Outline requirements for a call control application using EXS
API
- Understand SS7 and ISDN call models
Prerequisites
General knowledge of TDM switching, T1 and E1 interfaces, and
SS7 are required.
