[cisco-voip] Rewritten CCMUSER in AXL

[Lelio Fulgenzi]

There are also service parameters that allow you to limit the number AXL/SOAP processes. We have a dedicated TFTP/DHCP server, so that's where I'd send our SOAP calls to. Let it work for it's bread.

  Hi Bill,

  Sorry. I realise how the AXL app is not on a CCM server. I have been writing my own AXL tools / scripts in VB.net :) But mostly I have been writing stuff for admin, to speed up provisioning and deal with shortcomings of BAT in CCM 4.x :)

  The point is though that you have to send calls to a CCM server that will make the DB changes. This part can have an impact on the server obviously. Cisco has an IVT program for testing 3rd party programs and verifying they have no adverse impact.

  Did you have plans to extend the CCMUser functionality?

  I think the SSO I saw was Citrix - it was a while back. But it had a pre-defined list of supported apps. And then for unknown apps you could train it by performing a login, and pointing out which text boxes contain username / password details etc. It was pretty clever!
  I'm not sure how it managed a password change though!

  Cheers,

  Tim

    The AXL app, hosted on a separate machine, can point to the publisher for the SOAP calls.

    As for filling in auth fields ... I don't know.  Not ours.  Doesn't sound like a SSO, more like a login macro or something.

    Maybe you could proxy credentials through to CCMUser on 6.x but I know there's some javascript at work on the login screen that may frustrate such attempts.

      It is an approved way to go... but would it be a dedicated publisher? or would it be call processing as well?

      Dont most SSO solutions fill in web page auth fields for you if you train them?

      Cheers,

      Tim

         By the way, we did this before by hacking up the CCMUser in 4.x.  As
         we look forward to moving to 6.1, hacking up the web site itself is
         not an option so we're looking for a more Cisco-approved way of
         doing it.  AXL seems to be the direction to go.

                 Has anyone rewritten the CCMUser interface in AXL or
                 otherwise?  Or know a company that does this sort of thing?

                 Specifically, we want to provide CCMUser to our users but
                 use our single sign-on system for authentication and then
                 CCM's internal LDAP for authorization.  But even if this
                 specific task hasn't been done, I'm interested in hearing
                 about anyone's experience rewriting CCMUser.
