Course Overview
This one day practicum allows students to apply skills learned in the SMPTE ST 2110 Boot Camp and the Understanding SMPTE ST 2110 Virtual Course to real world environments and gain experience working with ST 2110.
This course features a self-paced remote real world hands-on curriculum where students will be working on:
- PTP baseline: GM/domain, Sync/Follow_Up, Delay; interpret offset & steps‑removed
- Access multicast: IGMP snooping & joins; prove only the subscriber gets traffic
- Inter‑switch multicast: read mroute, fix IIF/RPF via PIM‑SM; confirm bandwidth
- NMOS IS‑04/05: query nodes/senders/receivers; make a live route and verify on screen
This course is only accessible for those who have completed either the SMPTE ST 2110 Boot Camp or the Understanding SMPTE ST 2110 course. If you have already completed one of these, you are eligible to sign up.
