ONT Accelerated Course Description
As converged networks and mobility play increasingly critical roles in business, these technologies need to be optimized in order to support the business requirements. Students will learn about the new Cisco Intelligent Information Network model (IIN) and the Cisco Service-Oriented Network Architecture (SONA) as architectural frameworks for converged networks. Students will gather VoIP network essentials and focus on the VoIP related challenges in such networks. In order to ensure the quality in a converged network, participants will deal with concepts and implementation methods for Quality of Service (QoS). Finally, students will face the evolution of wireless security standards, and describe elements of Cisco wireless LAN (WLAN) network. Students will work on case studies and several labs based on the Cisco Integrated Services Routers (ISR) related to the converged network topics.
ONT is part of the recommended learning path for students seeking the CCNP certification.

Our instructor had a vast knowledge of the subject matter, and was able to convey the material to our class in a highly effective way. He had good pacing, a clear voice (that was easy to understand despite his Canadian accent) and spoke to the level of the class. Even though we covered a lot of material. He kept it interesting, and spaced out breaks so that we didn't get tired or feel overwhelmed.
