Description
The Cisco® Unified Operations Manager and Service
Monitor (CUOM-SM) v2.0 course teaches students how to effectively use
Cisco Unified Communications Management products, including Cisco
Unified Operations Manager, Cisco Unified Service Monitor, and the
Cisco 1040 Sensors, to manage unified communications. The focus of the
course is to provide knowledge about and practice with various Cisco
Unified Operations Manager and Service Monitor functions, such as
viewing unified communications devices, connectivity, alerts, and
events; running diagnostic tests; and monitoring applications, devices,
and the service quality of active call streams. Cisco Unified
Operations Manager provides contextual diagnostic tools to facilitate
trouble isolation and troubleshooting. Cisco Unified Service Monitor
provides alerts and reports about service quality by monitoring active
call streams. Labs are available to reinforce what is discussed in the
lecture.
