CCVP self study: Master voice interface configuration in Cisco Voice over IP

Cisco Voice over IP, Second Edition is a Cisco-authorized, self-paced learning tool for Cisco Certified Voice Professional (CCVP) Voice over IP (VoIP) foundation learning. The book provides the knowledge needed to implement and support data and voice integration solutions at the network-access level. In this sample chapter, learn how to configure voice interfaces on Cisco voice-enabled equipment for connection to traditional, nonpacketized telephony equipment. Study the configuration of various analog and digital voice ports and review various analog port timing parameters. Explore how DS-0 groups logically combine multiple channels in a digital circuit (for example, T1), thus reducing the number of required configuration steps. Explore the commands used to influence the effect of echo on voice calls. By the end of the chapter, you will have mastered:

• Configuring analog and digital voice interfaces as new devices are introduced to the voice path, and
• Configuring analog and digital voice ports for optimal voice quality.

Chapter review questions, practice items, real-world examples, and hands-on lab exercises are provided to help reinforce learning.
