Voice 3.0 Material
Posted by Jo on February 4, 2009
IPexpert have released the first batch of Volume I labs to cover the 3.0 blueprint. The new IPexpert / Proctor Labs 3.0 vRack topology is shown above.
The new Volume 1 updates are as follows:
- Volume 1, Section 1A Workbook & Proctor Guide – ”Implement Campus Infrastructure and Services”
- Volume 1, Section 1B Workbook & Proctor Guide – ”Troubleshoot Campus Infrastructure and Services”
- Volume 1, Section 2A Workbook & Proctor Guide – ”Implement CUCM Endpoints“
- Volume 1, Section 2B Workbook & Proctor Guide – ”Troubleshoot CUCM Endpoints”
- Volume 1, Section 3A Workbook & Proctor Guide – ”Implement CUCME Endpoints“
- Volume 1, Section 3B Workbook & Proctor Guide – ”Troubleshoot CUCME Endpoints”
They have also updated the Proctor Labs booking site so when booking a session it prompts you for what version of the hardware you would like to use and also the ability to load/save configs. I have yet to book a session as I am still preparing for my move this Friday, but hopefully I will get some time to have a look more closely at the new content and features in the next couple of weeks or so. One thing I do see is that there are more SIP devices (the labels on the EzVPN part of the diagram above are now correct and there are SIP phone for the HQ and BR2 sites that run over the EzVPN tunnel – full list below).
HQ
HQ-Ph1 (SCCP)BR1
BR1-Ph1 (SIP)BR2
BR2-Ph1 (SCCP)
BR2-Ph2 (SIP)EzVPN
PSTN-Ph (SCCP)
HQ-Ph2 (SIP)
BR1-Ph2 (SCCP)
BR2-Ph3 (SCCP)
BR2-Ph4 (SIP)
I am looking forward to checking out CUCM 7.0 to see how it differs from 4.1 as well as all the other ‘new’ features that 3.0 will bring to the table.
Mark @ IPexpert has just added a new blog entry covering the new content and changes – head on over here

Thanks for V3 topology diagram Jo! I am currently in a process of building my own lab and i got couple of questions
1) As per topology diagram HQ-RTR is acting as voice gateway and WAN router but what about gatekeeper? will the same device act as gatekeeper as well or do we need a separate router for it?
2) my understanding is we also need a Win AD server for integration with call manager and so forth?
Any help would be highly appreciated
