Course Duration:
2 days
Training Course Description:
TV and video delivery systems will increasingly run over networks
based upon IP. Engineers need an appreciation of how these services
can be deployed reliably in redundant systems. The delivery of this
course will be as interactive as possible, integrating
demonstrations and hand-on sessions where appropriate. Attendees
will be encouraged to ask questions and explore potential problem
areas that exist in design and field delivery of services.
When you have completed this course you will be able to:
- Engineer addressing schemes for
IP network prefix configurations
- Add resilience to MAC/IP
mappings for reliable redundancy switching
- Select the best routing and
switching strategy for server and delivery networks
- Analyze protocols used to carry
multimedia and troubleshoot services problems
- Appreciate how multicast routing
protocols function
- Specify requirements for
firewall transit of video services
- Compare how DiffServ, DSCP,
RSVP, WFQ, MPLS and 802.1P/Q can provide quality of service
- Select the most appropriate
quality of service option

Prerequisites:
This training course is aimed at experienced systems engineers,
integrators, developers and designers who already have a basic
understanding of IP and need to build upon this to better appreciate
how reliable distribution and QoS networks can be engineered.
