  • Clients will not waste time on the racks...when clients begin a session, they will be able to choose the lab scenario they are working on (Volume 1 & 2 Workbooks, or the ILT 5-day and OWLE Labs if clients have previously taken one of the courses), and pre-load all configurations specific to that particular lab scenario - THIS INCLUDES loading VMWare snapshots to enable new 'base" pre-configuration for each of the servers (many labs have differing server and router base pre-configurations from other labs).
  • Web based support for the use of clients own Hardware Phones - INCLUDING PSTN Phone - just enter the phone MAC Address into the website and click "Apply". 
  • Dynamically switch PSTN in real-time between practicing with E1 PRI or E1 R2 CAS with just the click of a button. If clients wish to go beyond and practice a protocol such as CAS, even if PRI might be the predominant protocol in a given lab you are working on.
  • SSH/HTTP access to all CUCOS Servers and RDP/HTTP access to UCCX Server.
  • Access to VMWare virtual servers (CUCM(s), CUPS, UC, UCCX) with ability to start / stop / and revert to clean configuration.
  • Each device can be power-cycled by RPC (Remote Power Control) system with a click of a button.

“"At the very least, get IPexpert's Voice workbooks."”
By: Johnny Dau, CCIE #21995 (Voice)

To begin my preparation, I purchased the IPexpert Voice Workbook and a bundle of 25 Voice online sessions. I also joined their online forum (Online Study List) for sharing knowledge and support with other members. For comparison purposes, I also purchased a couple of online sessions from other online rentals, and trust me when I say it's a HUGE difference. Compared to IPexpert, other online rentals were more expensive, and their technical support was either non-live, non-existence or much slower to respond.

Their live technical support was speedy, friendly, courteous, and professional. Similarly, their online forum provided a great source of information and support. It had a big community of users for sharing knowledge and two very competent and knowledgeable CCIE instructors and moderators for answering any question. Last but not least, IPexpert offered very affordable rates. I spent well over 50 online sessions and attended a voice Boot Camp at IPexpert's training facility in San Jose. IPexpert's workbook and boot camp provided me with a wealth of specific knowledge contents to pass my CCIE lab exam.

So, I say to all who are attempting a CCIE Voice lab exam... I highly recommend attending IPexpert's Voice boot camp or at the very least, get IPexpert's Voice workbooks. It is a wise investment if you are serious about pursuing a Cisco Voice CCIE certification. I have learned much, gained tremendous hands-on experiences with voice telephony and passed my CCIE lab exam as the result.

 
 
“"The workbooks have very well designed exercises and multiple scenarios."”
By: Ricardo Arevalo, CCIE #22885 (Voice)

The experience of working with IPexpert & Proctor Labs was just invaluable. First of all, the excellent quality of the material delivered, the workbooks have very well designed exercises and multiple scenarios. I also bought some Proctor Labs online rack time, which was just what I needed the get all the excellent results at a really low price.

Last but not least is the Online Study List community, which could be seen as a continuation of the Boot Camp. The IPexpert instructors give their expert opinions, knowledgeable answers and useful tips on OSL to guide us to find the right solutions.

NOTICE: The above-stated details are governed by the following program policies:

  • The lifetime of your Investment Assurance Program coverage correlates to the Cisco exam version in effect at the time of your purchase.
