Cisco Meeting Server Support - SMSS

This instructor-led workshop focuses on supporting the Cisco Meeting Server in a Cisco Unified Communications environment. Delegates will configure and verify on-premise video conferencing features in a UC environment with end user devices such as Video Endpoints, Cisco IP Phones, Cisco Jabber client and software based (browser) WebRTC clients. There is a strong emphasis on lab oriented tasks for delegates to configure, verify and troubleshoot. The workshop runs as a ‘workshop’ environment where delegates can focus on specific areas of interest to them.
