The following lab guide offers step-by-step instructions on how to configure the Unified Communications 500 System (UC500) using a base topology.
The different tasks are collaborative and assume that several PODs have been set up simultaneously. However, some exercises can still be completed individually.
Each lab section follows a logical sequence, but is independent from the others, with the exception of Lab 1 (Plug and Play), which is a prerequisite for the successful completion of the subsequent exercises.
Here is a short description of each lab:
Lab 1 – Plug and Play: Learn how the UC500 implements automatic phone resgitration and configuration.
