Cisco Certified
Network Professional CCNP Voice validates advance knowledge and skills required
to integrate into underlying network architectures. Furthermore, this certification
validates a robust set of skills in implementing, operating, configuring, and troubleshooting
a converged IP network. With a CCNP Voice certification, a network professional
can create a collaboration solution that is transparent, scalable, and manageable.
The CCNP Voice focuses on Cisco Unified Communications Manager (formerly Unified
CallManager), quality of service (QoS), gateways, gatekeepers, IP phones, voice
applications, and utilities on Cisco routers and Cisco Catalyst switches. Additionally,
the integration and troubleshooting of Cisco Unified Communications applications
are now covered in the CCNP Voice, specifically the Cisco Unity Connection and Cisco
Unified Presence applications.
Important information regarding CCNP Voice
On October 19, 2010, Learning@Cisco announced the evolution of the CCVP certification,
renaming it CCNP Voice. The new CCNP Voice certification reflects alignment to Cisco's
Unified Communications and Collaboration v8.0 solutions portfolio and aligns it
with the latest courses and exams.
CCNA Voice or any CCIE Certification can act as a pre-requisite.
