Cisco Unified Communications Manager 10.5 Single, Unified platform for feature-rich Voice and Video Control
CUCM and VCS Roles • VCS • VCS provides firewall traversal, legacy support, and H.323 interworking functionality • There are now four possible operating modes of the VCS: • VCS-Control • VCS-Expressway • Expressway-Core (new) • Expressway-Edge (new) • CUCM • UC Manager is Cisco’s strategic call control platform, CUCM is the Single cluster for voice or video device, including legacy and 3rd party endpoints • CUCM Integrated provisioning, management, phonebooks, and conferencing
VCS Roles – Legacy and New • New - firewall traversal using “Expressway” Core and Edge • Legacy - VCS “Control” version is still supported for registering H.323, legacy Tandberg, and 3rd party endpoints • The original VCS-Expressway is also still supported for B2B, Jabber Video for TelePresence (a.k.a. Movi) and Webex enabled TelePresence • Devices CANNOT directly register on either Expressway-Core or Edge. They register on UCM via SIP proxy. • Both solutions work as a strict pairing VCS Control VCS Expressway Firewall Traversal UCM Optional Legacy Solution Expressway Core Expressway Edge Firewall Traversal Trusted certificates are required CSR10 Expressway Solution SIP Trunk Signaling Proxy (“SIP line side”)
Benefits of Endpoint Registration on CUCM • Key factors in this decision are the endpoint type/model and how they connect to the call control network- Directly via L2/L3?, WAN/VPN? Internet? • CUCM 10.5 makes it easier to register endpoints on UCM, and fully manage them, no matter how they are networked (VPN or Expressway)! * TMS can schedule any endpoint into a conference, but OBTP is only available to campus devices
UCM Registration Benefits • DX70, DX80, DX650 and SX10 can only be registered to UCM • Endpoints registered on CUCM gain the following key features and benefits: • Single Pt. of Dial Plan Administration • Single Call Admission Control Domain • Geographic redundancy • CUCM Phones features : • Voice Mail indicator /Call Forward All /Consultative Transfer • Shared Lines /SNR /Ad Hoc conferencing/CTI Control/BLF • CSS/Partitions /Hunt Groups/ Music on Hold/ Announcements

Migration Checklist • Verify the compatibility of various devices in your network with UCM - Unified Communications Manager Software Compatibility Matrix • Based on your scenario, you may migrate all endpoints to your existing UCM or to a new UCM. Update all the UCM versions to the latest UCM release. UCM 10.x and higher is only supported on virtual machines • Update video endpoint version versions to the latest firmware. The Cisco Unified Communications System Release Summary Matrix for IP Telephony summarizes the phone firmware version recommended with all Cisco Unified Communications Manager releases. • Identify endpoint numbers and aliases • Sync Ldap users from AD into UDS or add as end users • Map the URIs in the DN • Use BAT tool to do bulk import of endpoints to UCM • Move FindMe to Shared line in CUCM • Configure SIP registration or enable CDP on the endpoint • If needed change the Endpoints provisioning mode to CUCM in TMS if endpoint is provisioned • Migrate Phone books and directory
Migration – Dial Plan • Devices • Identify video devices • Group them into a subzone in the VCS • URI • Identify the URIs that are to be migrated • Delete the URI entries from the ILS catalog • DNs • Update the Unified CM route patterns that point to the VCS
Migration – Shared Line • As part of migration, consider making the migrated device a shared line with other phones for the DN. For example, If you had a UCM cluster with a device for a user on both UCM and VCS, you can migrate the VCS device to UCM, and make the migrated device to be a shared line with the user’s existing UCM DN. • Associate user with device • Update the Primary DN in the end user configuration • In DN configure the alias for the user • Use BAT tool to configure the phones into the Unified CM • Enable SNR functionality if needed
Migration – Endpoints Registrations • Upgrade video endpoints software to latest version: Cisco Unified Communications System Release Summary Matrix for IP Telephony • Update the release key and option keys • If Protocol is changed from H.323 to SIP, then update protocol configuration and default call protocol configuration • Access the endpoint using browser or SSH and change the provisioning mode and the Vlan mode to auto. This enables CDP and uses option 150 to register with the Unified CM • If setting VLAN is not possible, then configure SIP information and configure Unified CM as registrar
Migration – Address Book Directory synchronized with LDAP User Data Service (UDS) provides phone directory for Unified CM registered endpoints UDS supports blended addresses, that send DN and URI information to display and use for history and redial/missed call lists Address book is automatically configured for C-series endpoints and points to UDS TMS supports Unified CM directory for phone books VCS endpoints have phone books through TMS
Migration Conference bridge – (Rendezvous / Scheduled) VCS Unified CM EX, MX C-Series • jo@cisco.com • meet.jo@cisco.com MCU Users meeting URI MCU TX Series Rendezvous VCS Search rule to CUCM for Multiwaynumbers Configure route pattern on CUCM for Multiwaynumbers ILS import for user allocated bridges into CUCM/SME Move registration of the MCUs to the CUCM/Conductor Scheduled conferences Map DN to Alias conferences 27
Migration Considerations • Release Key is not required when migrating from VCS. • Consider making the directory/phone book in UCM similar to that in VCS, via setting up the Active Directory integration in UCM and importing the users regularly. • Enable Active Directory authentication in UCM so that Jabber for Windows, Mac and iPad will use single sign-on. • "Cisco TelePresence Profile 52 (C60)” fails to register in UCM unless the device type changed to "Cisco TelePresence Codec C60". We need to setup the exact device type in UCM match the output of SSH command “xstatusSystemUnitProductId”. • TC4 and older software doesn’t support UCM provision mode. Need to upgrade the endpoint to TC5 or TC6 (with appropriate Release Key) before switching from VCS to UCM. • Use BAT in UCM to create multiple devices, Remote Destination Profiles and Remote Destinations efficiently.
Caveats • Extensive changes to configuration such as adjusting gain, camera source etc. cannot be configured through the CUCM • No retry video call at lower bandwidth, CUCM retries call as audio
