[cisco-voip] CUPS with CUPC on CCM 5.1

[Christopher M. Bomba]

1) You don't put the address of the TFTP server when logging into CUPC.  You
put the address or name of the CUPS server.

2) CUPS cannot pull the directory information from CallManager.  If you want
the directory and also if you want the ability to add users to your contact
list you have to integrate to an LDAP resource.

3) You also want to make sure that you set the capabilities in CCM for that
users.  Make sure you give them CUPC and Presence capabilities and then when
you configure a CUPC for them, make sure you associate the device with their
username in CCM.  That username in CCM MUST match what you have in the LDAP
directory you are integrating the CUPS server with.  If it doesn't match, it
won't work properly.

Hi,

I am trying to interconnect a CCM 5.1.2 with a Cisco Unified Personal Server
6.0.2, and I am having some issues.
I am using CUPC 1.2.

I read the administration guide of CUPS 6.0.1, and I followed this link in
order to troubleshoot my configuration:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/sw/voicesw/ps556/products_tech_note09186
a00808a2b0d.shtml

- The troubleshooter shows all green.

But there are Two point that I really don't understand:

- In *Cisco Unified Presence - Settings*.*,* I put the address of my tftp
server address (the callmanager), but when I log on the CUPC, and I check
the connectivity, this field (tftp server) is red. It seems like my CUPC
cannot find my TFTP server.
Why do we need a tftp server with CUPS?

- Do I really need A Ldap Server, my CallManager cannot give the presence
settings and all the other personal settings?
Is it worthwhile to add this LDAP Server ?

In my actual configuration I cannot add other user to my contact list,
cannot see the presence settings and cannot use IM (due to the two previous
point ?)

Thank you in advance for any clarification or explanation.
