Im Mittelpunkt der Diskussion stehen hier existierende und neue Technologien für die Vermittlung von Sprachverkehr über das Internet Protocol (IP). - bis vor kurzem stammte der Datenverkehr über Kommunikationsnetzwerke größtenteils aus herkömmlich vermittelten Telefonverbindungen - zukünftig wird dieser Sprachverkehr durch ein riesiges Volumen paketvermittelter Daten (Text- und Audiodateien, Streaming Video usw.) weit in den Schatten gestellt; Telefongespräche werden dann über Internetprotokolle vermittelt - hier erhalten Sie eine detaillierte Einführung in den Aufbau eines effizienten VoIP-Netzwerkes - erläutert Prototyping und Leistungsmessung in solchen Netzwerken - besprochen werden auch Aspekte des Quality-of-Service (QoS)

"A system administrator's guide to VoIP technologies"--Cover.

Configuring Cisco Voice Over IP, Second Edition provides network administrators with a thorough understanding of Cisco's current voice solutions. This book is organized around the configuration of all of Cisco's core VoIP products, including Cisco CallManager software, Cisco 7910 series of phones, and server-based IP PBXs. In addition, AVVID coverage has been added. An update to a bestselling title in a growth market. Continued competitive pressure on ISPs to deliver VoIP will create strong demand information on topic Voice Over IP is expected to make great inroads in 2002. Voice-over-IP got its start at the time of the first edition of the book; it is now real and more companies are adopting it since IT managers have become less skeptical of IP telephony's reliability and more aware of the potential cost savings and application benefits of a converged network. Voip wares now promise easier quality-of-service (QoS) deployment, and a multitude of new IP phones and conferencing stations for corporations. Cisco and IBM recently announced a package deal that could help businesses quickly roll out IP voice in a small or midsize office. Since getting into the IP telephony market two years ago, Cisco has seen quick success in selling its voice-over-IP products into its vast installed base of IP LAN equipment customers. The firm was the top vendor of IP phones in the first quarter of this year and second in IP PBX system shipments (behind 3Com), according to Cahners In-Stat.

VoIP and convergence are hot topics, and the CVOICE 8.0 exam targets candidates looking to pass Exam 642-437 and pursue their CCNP Voice certification. Companies continue to add VoIP service at a record pace, and network administrators are ramping up their skills. This new member of the Sybex Study Guide series covers everything you’ll need to know to pass the certification exam. VoIP (Voice over IP) is rapidly becoming a preferred solution for companies, and Cisco has responded to the need with a new certification to assure proficiency in VoIP technology Prepares IT professionals for the CVOICE 8.0 exam and includes a CD with the Sybex Test Engine, flashcards, and the Glossary in PDF format. Covers gateway components, dial plans, basic operation and components of VoIP, how to implement a gateway, the function and interoperation of gatekeepers, how to implement an IP-to-IP gateway, and more Administrators of Cisco VoIP networks will find all the essential tools for CVOICE exam success in CVOICE 8.0: Implementing Cisco Unified Communications Voice over IP and QoS v8.0 Study Guide.

Written by Cisco "RM" CCIEs "TM, " Technical Marketing Engineers, and Systems Engineers who have real-life experience with Cisco "RM" VoIP networks, this guide includes coverage of Virtual Private Networks (VPNs), admission control, security, fax and modem traffic, and unified messaging. Learn from real-world scenarios.

A hands-on guide to the theoretical and practical aspects of today's voice communications technology The standards and technologies for transmitting voice via the Internet protocol (IP) are areas of major commercial importance in modern telecommunications. Until recently, the majority of traffic over communications networks was made up of circuit-switched voice calls. Today, the amount of voice traffic is dwarfed by the huge volume of packet-switched data (including text and audio files, streaming video, etc.) that is overtaking the medium. Consequently, public and private networks must be configured to route all voice calls using IP-based protocols. Aimed at industry professionals such as network architects and IT practitioners as well as graduate students of electrical and computer engineering, Implementing Voice over IP provides a detailed explanation of the design and architectures for Voice over IP while covering important implementation features.
