Overview

The Optimizing Converged Cisco Networks (642-845 ONT) is a qualifying exam for the Cisco Certified Network Professional CCNP®. The ONT 642-845 exam will certify that the successful candidate has important knowledge and skills in optimizing and providing effective QOS techniques for converged networks. The exam topics include implementing a VOIP network, implementing QoS on converged networks, specific IP QoS mechanisms for implementing the DiffServ QoS model, AutoQoS, wireless security and basic wireless management.

Course Outline

• Describe Network Requirements
  

• Describing Cisco VoIP Implementations
  

• Introduction to IP QoS
  

• Implementing the DiffServ QoS Model
  

• Implementing AutoQoS
  

• Wireless Security
