NETW250

Explain, in one paragraph, the role of a VoIP gateway. Under what circumstances is a gateway recommended for an organization’s VoIP network?

Why should the IT department of a company, that plans to switch to VoIP, baseline its data network before the actual implementation?

o   Define the PSTN hierarchy and key components of the network.

o   Explain telephony terms such as E.164 numbering plan, Telecommunications Act of 1996, Dual Tone Multi Frequency (DTMF), special information tones, Pulse Code Modulation (PCM), Time Division Multiplexing (TDM), local loop/last mile, and demarcation point.

o   Evaluate PSTN user experience from technical perspective, such as sound quality and call setup delay.

o   Describe enterprise telephony systems and services, such as PBX, Automatic Call Distribution (ACD), and Centrex, and compare their operations, core features, and functionality.

o   Describe hardware and software components of a legacy circuit-switched PBX.

o   Analyze the pros and cons of circuit-switched PBX systems.

o   Discuss advantages of packet switching as compared to circuit switching, and recognize the driving force behind network convergence.

o   Discuss disadvantages of packet switching as compared to circuit switching, and identify challenges of VoIP technologies.

o   Explain the basic functionality of an audio codec.

o   Determine parameters that are typically used for comparing audio codecs.

o   Analyze trade-offs, for example, bandwidth consumption versus accumulated delay versus voice quality, when choosing audio codecs for a deployment scenario.

o   Explain the encapsulation and transmission process of voice traffic in VoIP.

o   Discuss the potential impact of voice packet payload size on capacity design and VoIP performance.

o   Explain the reason that voice traffic is carried over UDP, not TCP.

o   Evaluate ways to reduce VoIP bandwidth consumption, such as header compression and Voice Activity Detection (VAD).

o   Describe the role of RTCP in VoIP, and interpret sender’s report and receiver’s report.

o   Discuss the history and functionality of VoIP control signaling such as SIP, H.323, and MEGACO.

o   Describe the role of VoIP server or gatekeeper.

o   Illustrate a typical call processing procedure using SIP.

o   Describe telephone and PBX features, such as telepresence and unified messaging, that are made available by VoIP.

o   Assess limitations of VoIP E911 as compared to traditional landline E911 service.

o   Describe the role of signaling gateway in VoIP.

o   Describe the role of media gateway in VoIP.

o   Compare PBX trunk options such as analog, digital, and SIP trunks.

o   Choose traffic or queuing models, such as Erlang B and Erlang C, to formulate the relationship among Grade of Service (GoS), traffic load, and trunk capacity of a local telephony system.

o   Estimate trunk capacity of a local telephony system.

o   Estimate capacity of WAN connections for voice traffic among multiple branch locations.

o   Define and quantify typical QoS criteria of voice traffic.

o   Explain traffic prioritization on network devices such as switches and routers.

o   Analyze limitations of prioritization on providing QoS to voice traffic.

o   Define network performance attributes that correlate with voice quality.

o   Discuss the role of baselining and trending on network performance monitoring.

o   Estimate one-way end-to-end delay in VoIP.

o   Discuss security vulnerabilities of a typical VoIP system.

o   Propose and evaluate best practices for voice traffic security.

o   Conduct cost analysis of deploying a VoIP system such as capital cost, monthly recurring changes, and Return on Investment (ROI).

o   Conduct data network analysis to assess upgrading required by VoIP services.

o   Plan an enterprise VoIP system by applying knowledge on traffic engineering, VoIP control signaling, VoIP hardware/software, etc.
