Description
The Cisco BTS 10200 Essentials I course provides a thorough introduction to the Cisco BTS 10200 Softswitch
as well as an overview of Cisco Broadband Local Integrated Services Solutions. Targeting typical network
operations center (NOC) personnel, this course covers the Cisco BTS 10200 operations, maintenance,
administration, and basic troubleshooting topics. The course also supports Cisco BTS 10200 Softswitch
provisioning for Integrated Access Devices (IAD), Embedded Multimedia Terminal Adapter (eMTA) cable,
and Session Initiation Protocol (SIP)?based IP phone residential gateways (RGWs) and subscribers. The
extensive hands-on activities are designed to reinforce an end-to-end call-flow perspective, where
students provision the Cisco BTS 10200 Softswitch for call setup and control as well as use the various
RGW diagnostic tools to validate, observe, and troubleshoot operations.
Please note: Students need to provide their own Windows-based laptops and 15-ft-or longer ethernet cables.Objectives
After completing this course, the student should be able to:
- Identify and describe Cisco Broadband Local Integrated Services Solutions primary components and their interoperability.
- Identify and explain the Cisco BTS 10200 Softswitch capabilities,
internal and external interfaces, communications protocols, and
hardware options.
- Explain and demonstrate using the Cisco BTS 10200 Softswitch
provisioning tools and methods, to include command-line interface
(CLI), copy and paste, bulk (batch file), and Extensible Provisioning
and Operations Manager (EPOM).
