Cisco Unified Communications Manager Version 6.0 [Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CallManager)]

Cisco® Unified Communications is a comprehensive IP communications system of voice, video, data, and mobility products and applications. It enables more effective, more secure, more personal communications that directly affect both sales and profitability. It brings people together by enabling a new way of communicating-where your business moves with you, security is everywhere, and information is always available...whenever and wherever it is needed. Cisco Unified Communications is part of an integrated solution that includes network infrastructure, security, mobility, network management products, lifecycle services, flexible deployment and outsourced management options, end-user and partner financing packages, and third-party communications applications.

Cisco Unified Communications Manager (formerly Cisco Unified CallManager) software is the call-processing component of the Cisco Unified Communications system. Cisco Unified Communications Manager extends enterprise telephony features and capabilities to packet telephony network devices such as IP phones, media processing devices, voice-over-IP (VoIP) gateways, and multimedia applications. Additional services such as unified messaging, multimedia conferencing, collaborative contact centers, and interactive multimedia response systems are made possible through Cisco Unified Communications Manager open telephony APIs. Cisco Unified Communications Manager is installed on the Cisco 7800 Series Media Convergence Servers (MCSs) platforms and selected third-party servers. It has a suite of integrated voice applications and utilities, including the Cisco Unified Communications Manager Attendant Console, an impromptu conferencing application, the Cisco Unified Communications Manager Bulk Administration Tool, the Cisco Unified Communications Manager Call Detail Record (CDR) Analysis and Reporting Tool, the Cisco Unified Communications Manager Real-Time Monitoring Tool, and the Cisco Unified Communications Manager Assistant application.

Features and Benefits

Cisco Unified Communications Manager 6.0 is an enterprise IP telephony call-processing solution that is scalable, distributable, and highly available. Multiple Cisco Unified Communications Manager servers are clustered and managed as a single entity on an IP network, a distinctive capability in the industry that yields scalability of 1 to 30,000 IP phones per cluster, load balancing, and call-processing service redundancy. Interlinking multiple clusters allows system capacity to reach 1 million users in a system of more than 100 sites. Clustering aggregates the power of multiple distributed Cisco Unified Communications Manager installations, enhancing the accessibility of the servers to phones, gateways, and applications, and triple call-processing server redundancy improves overall system availability.

Call admission control (CAC) helps ensure that voice quality of service (QoS) is maintained across constricted WAN links, and it automatically diverts calls to alternate public-switched-telephone-network (PSTN) routes when WAN bandwidth is not available. A Web interface to the configuration database allows remote device and system configuration. HTML-based online help is available for users and administrators.

Cisco Unified Communications Manager 6.0 builds upon the feature set available today with Cisco Unified Communications Manager 5.1(1) and Cisco Unified CallManager 4.2(3). The appliance model provides a platform for call processing with the software preloaded on a Cisco MCS platform; the software is optionally available as a DVD kit for customer-provided servers. The appliance comes with a single firmware image that includes the underlying operating system as well as the Cisco Unified Communications Manager application. The appliance is accessed through a GUI, and a command-line interface (CLI) has been added to facilitate diagnostics and basic system management such as the starting or stopping of services and rebooting of the appliance. No access to the underlying operating system is necessary. All system management activities, such as disk space monitoring, system monitoring, and upgrades, either are automated or are controlled through the GUI. Because onboard agents are no longer supported on the appliance in this version, all Cisco Unified Communications Manager management interfaces are enhanced to allow tight integration with third-party applications. The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) interface has added an Overall Syslog performance MIB, the Serviceability interface has instrumented appliance-specific counters, and the Programming interface has added the capability to run insert, update, and delete database commands. To further enhance security, Cisco Security Agent for Cisco Unified Communications Manager comes preloaded on the appliance.

Cisco Unified Communications Manager 6.0 includes two main enhancements: the integration of the Cisco Unified Mobility (formerly Cisco MobilityManager) feature into Cisco Unified Communications Manager software, and the support of dual-mode devices. Cisco Unified Mobility was previously available as an application on a Cisco MCS. It provides functions that intelligently manage, filter, route, and place calls between a worker's Cisco Unified IP phone and a remote mobile phone. Integrating these functions into Cisco Unified Communications Manager software makes administration and functions a native part of the solution, providing the capability to manage calls from a wired Cisco Unified IP phone or a mobile device. Additionally, support for dual-mode devices benefits customers who have mobile users who need to move between campus wireless and external cellular network environments. These devices can manually pass calls from a cellular GSM network to an 802.11-based wireless LAN.

Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) support is available in Cisco Unified Communications Manager with support of line-side devices, including IETF RFC 3261-compliant devices available from Cisco and other manufacturers. Cisco SIP-compliant devices include the Cisco Unified IP Phone 7905G, 7912G, 7940G, and 7960G models. SIP is also available on the Cisco Unified IP Phone 7906G, 7911G, 7941G, 7941G-GE, 7961G, 7961G-GE, 7970G, and 7971G-GE models.

The SIP trunk interface is available and conforms to RFC 3261, allowing support of video calls over the SIP trunk and improving conferencing and application support experiences when used with the Cisco Unity® and Cisco Unified MeetingPlace® solutions.

Cisco Unified Communications Manager supports Resource Reservation Protocol (RSVP) agent capability. The RSVP agent on a Cisco router extends CAC capability beyond a hub-and-spoke topology within a cluster. Now a call can be routed directly between two locations without having to traverse the hub, allowing alternative network topologies and more efficient use of networks.

Cisco Unified Communications Manager 5.0 delivered Japanese, Korean, and Chinese (Traditional and Simplified) languages; Cisco Unified Communications Manager 5.1 supports Arabic; and now Cisco Unified Communications Manager 6.0 supports Hebrew.

The Cisco Unified IP Phone 7931G is supported in Cisco Unified Communications Manager 6.0. Initially introduced with Cisco Unified Communications Manager Express, this phone provides functions that are commonly needed in the commercial and retail environments. It provides 24 lighted line keys and four interactive soft keys that guide users through call features and functions. In addition, it provides hard hold, redial, and transfer keys to facilitate simple and rapid call handling.

SNMP is available to manage Cisco Unified Communications Manager, allowing managers to set and report traps on conditions that could affect service and send them to the remote monitoring systems.

Cisco Unified Communications Manager allows immediate diversion of an incoming call or an in-progress call to voicemail. In Cisco Unified Communications Manager 6.0, the feature has been enhanced to address transferred calls as well. Users now can forward calls that have been transferred to them either to their own voicemail or to the voicemail of the original transferring party.

Cisco Unified Communications Manager and Cisco Unified CallManager provides a choice of operating system: either a Windows-based server (Release 4) or the appliance model (Releases 5 and 6). The feature enhancements listed in this section pertain to the appliance model.
