I know I had made some outrageous claims about being very active with this blog and yet, this is my first post (other that the welcome message). The reason for the lack of activity is that I have been very busy preparing the for the Cisco IP Telephony 1 v. 8.0 (CIPT 1) exam as well as learning more about Pre-Sales Engineering with respect to the Cisco Unified Communications suite.
In fact, this post is (or was originally intended) specifically to talk about the CUCME Solution Network Design Guide (CUCME SRND). I started reading this document a few days ago and it is absolutely gripping – yes gripping! I have put my CIPT 1 book away and started solely focusing my attention on this document. It is a 272 page long document with lots of illustrations, excellent examples, and a step-by-step and a comprehensive plan on implementing the network over all the different OSI layers to ensure a strong, error-free, highly-available, manageable and efficient VoIP network with CUCME as the Call Agent.
For anyone interested in learning how to plan, prepare, design and implement a CUCME solution, this is the document for you.
The CUCME SRND is available for viewing (also downloadable in pdf format) here:
