[cisco-voip] Call Manager Platform

[Clayton Kossmeyer]

If you just want to run VoIP and you don't specifically need a
CallManager, you can run CallManager Express (was called ITS) which is
a functional (does not have complete feature parity, though)
CallManager running within IOS.

CME was introduced in 12.2(15)ZJ (and is now in 12.3T), but ITS has
been around for a while if you don't meet the memory/flash
requirements for that.

Both will allow you to run 7960s with the SCCP (CallManager) load.

Also, the CallManager software does check to see that you're
installing it on "approved" hardware.  I don't know how it does the
check, but it does check.

Regards,

Clay
