Our Next Meeting - Wednesday November 7, 2018

Understanding and Deploying Dynamic Multipoint VPN (DMVPN)

Dynamic Multipoint VPN (DMVPN) is a Cisco solution for building a scalable IPsec Virtual Private Network (VPN) which runs over the Internet.

In the CCIE lab and the written exam, DMVPN, has replaced Frame-relay. Therefore, knowing DMVPN is extremely important to obtaining a CCIE certification as well as deploying, managing and operating many real world Networks. Roughly about 40% if not more of the medium to large businesses in the world use DMVPN.

In this presentation, the speaker will do a deep dive and explain all phases of DMVPN in the most simplistic manner so all attendees can fully understand it. Attendees will receive a lab guide for DMVPN written by the speaker, Narbik Kocharians, which will cover the entire lecture and help the attendee with their future implementation of DMVPN in real world environments.

Our Last Meeting - Wednesday October 3, 2018

MRA Basic Configuration and Troubleshooting

This session will introduce one of the integral, money-saving features of the Cisco Collaborations Solution, Mobile and Remote Access(MRA). MRA extends office connectivity to on-the-go and remote employees, providing a seamless experience to customers when they are outside the enterprise network. This feature allows external Cisco Jabber mobile users and Cisco Telepresence endpoints to securely access video, voice, contents, voicemails, instant messaging(IM), and presence without the need to connect through a VPN. During the session, the basics of how MRA works, various deployment scenarios, Expressway basic configuration elements, DNS, and certificate requirements will be discussed. There will also be a deep dive to understand what configuration is required on CUCM, IM&P, firewalls, and endpoints(Jabber, TC/CE Endpoints, IP Phones). After this session, you will be able to configure and troubleshoot the MRA solution with ease and time to spare.
