Solved: Is UCM version 7.x still relevant? Regarding outdated INE course

esa_fresa · ‎12-03-2017

INE has what looks like a great course for studying voice, but it's for CCIE voice v3 which uses UCM version 7.x. I'm worried that there'll be enough outdated information that I'll get confused when I jump into production servers running 11.x.

So I guess my questions specifically are... How different is version 7.x and 11.x? Can someone recommend some more recent videos?

The core of CUCM is still the same (config phones and feature like call park, line group, FAC/CMC, etc which have been since 3.x), but plenty of other things have been added, and now the integration with IM&P and Jabber is very far from what it used to be, plus a lot of new configuration elements that have been added over the years.

Someone with knowledge of CUCM 7 and jumping directly to 11/12 will need to spend some time reading documentation to be able to configure a few things.

Okay, good to know, thank you for the info Jaime.

I'm still looking for CCNP/CCIE level voice videos if you or anyone knows a good site. It looks like INE is outdated then and CBTNuggets seems a little un-technical.
