Compatibility phone Avaya with Cisco Unified Communications Platform

Hello

We are currently a user all-Cisco on the side of routing, switching and network security, however, we are a user all Avaya on the phone, IP phone and voice communications.  I laugh with all the problems we had with Avaya and would migrate to Cisco.  My department head wants to know is it possible to have a Cisco platform manage all unified communications and voice mail on the back end, but continue to use the Avaya phones currently in place in each office, until we can replace in the coming years through attrition?  It is essentially a measure of cost that is the main factor in management are unwilling to make any changes whatsoever because of investment is already in the existing system.

None of the Avaya endpoints are officially supported on Cisco CUCM, but if they SIP phones, they can be defined as 3rd-party SIP endpoints.  That being said you get far more features and satisfaction with phones Cisco CUCM, otherwise ask for another set of questions, and at that time there a seller will point to the other.

  • Compatibility of VLAN with Cisco

    Hello

    We just bought 10 x new Netgear switches (all M4100) to add to an existing Cisco infrastructure.

    Simple configuration with only 6 Valns.

    5: Admin, 30: VOIP, 101: management, 100: a set of Workstations, 102: second series of Workstations, 200: IPTV, 400: Internet, 401: Wireless Management

    All I wanted to do was: 2 last ports each switch netgear = T and all the VLANS. I have not identified all ports if I want to use in the appropriate vlan

    101 of VLAN is my Managementt Vlan. (Need to configure inter vlan routing for this to work)

    I only turned on three switches up to now and all three do not work. They work for a while and that packets but do not receive all.

    What I am doing wrong?

    What I need to get rid of the original vlan1 on the netgear?

    Is that what I need config in the STP to make these compatible with Cisco (300 and 400 series) switches.

    I use an optical backbone on Cisco and Netgear switches.

    Sincere greetings,

    Hi Moussa,.

    Thanks for reaching out.

    We got it working.

    Step 1: upgrade to the latest firmware.

    Step 2: Forget the MISTLETOE.

    We had a few questions about the old firmware - causing links to trunk have some incompatibility with their tag and removed the images between Cisco and Netgear brand.

    After the upgrade of the firmware that we had access to "switchport mode access" and "switchport mode trunk" orders fixing the access port and trunking issues.

  • How to use 88XX phones Cisco Unified cm 8.6.2

    I installed the cmterm-88xx-sip.10-2-2-16.cop.sgn file on all Cisco Unified Communications Manager servers in the cluster.

    I restarted the Cisco Tftp service on all Cisco Unified Communications Manager servers in the cluster.

    In the Cisco Unified CM Administration;
    Under the Device menu, select device settings > default device.
    There is no registration for the Cisco IP Phone 8811 models, 8841, 8851 and 8861.

    What should I do to be able to use these new phones on this Cisco Unified CM 8.6.2 system?

    You must install the appropriate device pack. To be honest I don't know which would be best to install. The last pack of the device has support for the 8811. The other models were introduced in an earlier version of the device package. Not sure if they are included in the last.

  • Cisco IP Communicator with Bluetooth headset has fast battery drain

    Hi all, hoping to exploit the collective knowledge here to find an answer to a question that we live with bluetooth headsets with quickly draining the battery.

    Environment: We run Cisco UCM 10.5 and have some users with Cisco IP Communicator 8.6.4.  Computers are a mixture of office/computer laptop with Windows 7 32/64 - bit.  Most are bluetooth headsets, Plantronics Voyager legend UC with some older models of Plantronics.  These use a bluetooth dongle separated with flag State.  This helmet is announced as having 7 hours of talk time and 10 days standby.  Plantronics software is set to Audio enabled detection and headphones to maintain for PC connection as it is disabled.

    Behaviour: Normally, when the bluetooth headset is not in use, the light blue and the helmet is considered as standby.  When a call, the indicator light is a slow blink showing the helmet is in active use.

    Question: When not in a call, or when the CPIC is even launched, the indicator light is a blue blicking and users can hear 'air' in the helmet, even when not off the hook.  This led the helmet to be in Active mode and thus draining the battery at a higher rate.  Even if option software Plantronics headphones maintain link PC is off, it acts as if it was.  The only way that we were able to work around this problem is in the Plantronics software to disable Audio detection enabled.  This leads to the user needing to press the answer on the headset button and the answer button on the software phone which isn't ideal if users are up and on.

    So having said all this, is there a resolution to allow the headset to use with CPIC without the helmet being still active?

    It comes to video over IP, please move to the appropriate area.

  • Cisco UCS-C210 M1 accredited for Unified Communications server

    Hello:

    Our VAR tells us that HP and Cisco are splitting up.  We are an HP store today and 7800-H series MCS routers were a perfect fit.  Our VAR tells us now that he must go with the renamed IBM systems.  BUT I would avoid the IBM servers.  And attractive servers Cisco.  But I have been unable to determine if the Cisco UCS-C210 M1 server is certified for various applications of Unified Communications (Manager of Communications, unity, Cisco Emergency Responder, ICM, CVP, etc.).

    Has anyone heard of Communications deployments unified on the hardware of the UCS?

    Thank you

    UCS blades are being qualified for management of the applications of the CPU now. The qualification of rack mount server is expected, specifically the C210 later this summar I think.

  • Cisco Unified Video Advantage connect not not Cisco IP Phone

    Hi, I have the following text:

    • CUVA 2.2.2.0 installed on windows 7 x 64.
    • UC560.
    • IP phone 7965.

    The first time I installed the program, everything was ok, didn t try the video feature, but it was connecting and recognize.

    Now I'm with another phone, also a 7965 but CUVA said that it is not connected. He also says: "cisco unified video advantage can't connect to cisco ip phone" and asked him to contact the system administrator.

    It has been a long time (about 3 weeks) because I checked the last time he was working on the previous phone, I'm not sure if it's because I'm on another phone now, but I do not.

    Any ideas?

    When you go to CUVA-> all show the driver see CDP?

    Have you tried to close your wireless adapter or set a higher metric?

    Got a GPO that would restrict CUVA on windows firewall?

  • The request to connect to the Cisco Unified CCX application server has expired.

    Hello community Cisco!

    We currently have some question about the CAD. Several officers receive a timed mistake when they connect in CAD. The scenario is like this:

    1. agent tried to connect and receive an error message:

    "The request to connect to the server to application Cisco Unified CCX timed out. Please make sure your system is online and try again.

    2 agent hit retry and an error message is displayed:

    "Another agent has connected with the same extension. Your agent's office will sign, and then the application closes. »

    3. agent hit the OK and try to connect again, another error message appears:

    "The specified ID is already connected to an extension. You want to disconnect the ID so you can connect? »

    After continuing to try, agent is properly connected. However, the problem is intermittent and occurs on most of the agents. Please see accessories picture for reference.

    In addition, there was once the CUCM GUI is unresponsive to access (intermittent), although the ping on the server is ok.

    The system version and other info:

    * 9.1.1.20000 - 5 CUCM

    * UCCX 9.0.2.11003 - 44

    * LDAP is NOT used to connect to the CAD and the phone.

    Hope you can help me. Thank you!

    -Kenneth

    There was also, once the CUCM GUI is unresponsive to access (intermittent)

    This is the main reason for questions that your agents are faced to the it. If access to CUCM GUI is still slow, then restart the tomcat service using the service utils restart Tomcat Cisco of CLI and check whether or not it solves the problem.

    Preferably, I restart tomcat service on all servers of CM and then check.

  • my phone does not work after last update itunes on my phone connection with my pc, it shows only i tunes icon and the application of itune on my pc does not work

    my phone does not work after last update itunes on my phone connection with my pc, it shows only i tunes icon and the application of itune on my pc does not work

    For general advice, see troubleshooting problems with iTunes for Windows updates.

    The steps described in the second case are a guide to remove everything related to iTunes and then rebuild what is often a good starting point, unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach.

    Review the other boxes and other support documents list to the bottom of the page, in case one of them applies.

    More information area has direct links with the current and recent buildings if you have problems to download, must revert to an older version or want to try the version of iTunes for Windows (64-bit-for old video cards) as a workaround for problems with installation or operation, or compatibility with QuickTime software or a third party.

    Backups of your library and device should be affected by these measures but there are links to backup and recovery advice there.

    Once iTunes to work properly, you should be able to fix your device.

  • Replacement of VG224 in Cisco Unified Call Manager (CUCM)

    Hello

    I'm about to replace some of the access points virtual (VG224) to one of my sites and have a few concerns:

    1. Copy configs of the old to the new VG224 will be sufficient?
    2. What needs to be done on the Cisco Unified Call Manager (CUCM) to complete the replacement VG224?
    3. Should I change the configs in Cisco Unified Call Manager if I change the IP address of the VG224 (VG224 migration to the new voice VLAN)?

    Thank you

    Yahya,

    Hope it goes well...

    V is standing for VOICE, not virtual. Vg224 is gateway224 of voice. The answers for your quastion will be...

    1 - Yes, it is sufficient.

    2 - CUCM administration page > device > gateway > find. Select your gateway, change the mac address (10 digits) of the old appliance with a new one.

    3. with the help of sccp Protocol, CUCM don't care about ip address, it's care only about mac address. If the answer is, NO.

    hope that could help

  • Cisco Nexus 1000V Virtual Switch Module investment series in the Cisco Unified Computing System

    Hi all
    I read an article by Cisco entitled "Best practices in Deploying Cisco Nexus 1000V Switches Cisco UCS B and C Series series Cisco UCS Manager servers" http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/switches/ps9441/ps9902/white_paper_c11-558242.html

    A lot of excellent information, but the section that intrigues me, has to do with the implementation of module of the VSM in the UCS. The article lists 4 options in order of preference, but does not provide details or the reasons underlying the recommendations. The options are the following:

    ============================================================================================================================================================
    Option 1: VSM external to the Cisco Unified Computing System on the Cisco Nexus 1010

    In this scenario, the virtual environment management operations is accomplished in a method identical to existing environments not virtualized. With multiple instances on the Nexus 1010 VSM, multiple vCenter data centers can be supported.
    ============================================================================================================================================================

    Option 2: VSM outside the Cisco Unified Computing System on the Cisco Nexus 1000V series MEC

    This model allows to centralize the management of virtual infrastructure, and proved to be very stable...
    ============================================================================================================================================================

    Option 3: VSM Outside the Cisco Unified Computing System on the VMware vSwitch

    This model allows to isolate managed devices, and it migrates to the model of the device of the unit of Services virtual Cisco Nexus 1010. A possible concern here is the management and the operational model of the network between the MSM and VEM devices links.
    ============================================================================================================================================================

    Option 4: VSM Inside the Cisco Unified Computing System on the VMware vSwitch

    This model was also stable in test deployments. A possible concern here is the management and the operational model of the network links between the MSM and VEM devices and switching infrastructure have doubles in your Cisco Unified Computing System.
    ============================================================================================================================================================

    As a beginner for both 100V Nexus and UCS, I hope someone can help me understand the configuration of these options and equally important to provide a more detailed explanation of each of the options and the resoning behind preferences (pro advantages and disadvantages).

    Thank you
    Pradeep
