Knowledge and skills acquired in Teleinformatics Bachelor study programme are expected. Students who are going to attend this course should have full knowledge of the configuration and diagnostics of IP protocol based networks. They should have basic skills in the Linux command line, should be able to configure and monitor IP interfaces, check the running processes, terminate the process, etc. They should also have knowledge and practical experience of IP telephony, SIP and RTP protocols, etc.

At the end of each laboratory exercise the teacher checks the results of the given assignment and awards points. Experience gained in Asterisk Open Source PBX configuration is verified by the individual project. The points awarded for laboratory exercises (a maximum of 40 points in a semester) go to the evaluation of the examination and thus also to the assessment. The exam is written. The maximum number of points is 60. The overall evaluation is the sum of points for laboratory exercises and the written exam. The minimum required value is 50 points; the maximum value is 100 points.
Attendance at laboratory exercises is compulsory, justified absence can be made up after prior arrangement with the instructor. The content and forms of instruction in the evaluated course are specified by a regulation issued by the lecturer responsible for the course and updated for every academic year.

The aim of the course is to familiarize students with prospective telecommunication and information systems, their hardware, software and services.
Students who complete this course will be able to:
- explain the concepts of the convergence of telecommunications networks
- explain and compare the properties of circuit-switched and packet-based networks
- explain the concept of private branch exchanges (PBX) and list their utilization
