NPAT and IP/MPLSView training topics

This multi-day course is intended for network managers, network designers, network planners, and voice and data analysts charged with the task of design, planning and managing a wide area network (using the appropriate technology to be covered here). The first two days of the class covers the basics of NPAT and IP/MPLSView. The third day will be vendor/technology/model specific. During the hands-on portion of the class, students will get the chance to utilize the tool to design, simulate, and analyze wide area networks through selected examples.

Basic topics to be covered:

  • Networking terminologies which apply (ATM,Frame Relay,TDM,IP-MPLS,BGP,IGP,PNNI)
  • Theory and operation
    • Parameter setting
    • Reporting
    • Minimal cost design
    • Diversity design (network resiliency)
    • Failure simulation/analysis
    • Path placement simulation
    • Bottleneck analysis
    • Traffic loading analysis
    • Performance considerations
    • Forecasting
    • Tariff database integration
    • Tariff database creating/modifying
    • Transmission line pricing
    • Java interface
    • Graphic exporting

NPAT

Prerequisites: Participants should have an understanding of basic voice and data communications, as well as some experience with ATM/Frame Relay/TDM technology. Some UNIX experience is a plus.

    • Congestion control
    • Admin-Cost / Distance
    • QoS
    • Trunk partitions
    • Priority and holding/bumping priority
    • Network Data extraction
IP/MPLSView
