[after1111]

Sorry im new to voip field. Just wondering what equipment do i need to setup a voip laboratory to gain cisco voip certifications?

If i purchase two 7960 ip phone, do i need a licence for each phone?

What is the difference between call manager and call manager express?

If i have two ip phones and a call manager software, is that enough equiment study for the voip certification?

Thank you in advance.

If you are tlkaing about CIPT to start with you atleast need

Call Manger ( Server)

Few IP Phones (2-3)

Swicth for connecting these phones.

This is good enough to learn the product. But you may also consider looking for a Gateway also.
