[cisco-voip] call manager licensing

[Jason Aarons (US)]

I've never understood why the penalty for using better hardware.  i.e.
7825 vs 7845.   I want the highest end fully redundant hardware even if
my customer is small, yet the Linux Node licensing costs prevent that.
Small shops end up buying something with single EIDE drives that have
controller failures!

 

I miss the Good O'l days.  Next stop will be service bits having to be
enabled by TAC before you can make some changes.

Ed,

 

In regards to ESW & UCSS you need both in order to be complaint and
eligible for upgrades.  UCSS ties to the ESW contract # for the given
product and when you register UCSS you must input the ESW contract #.

 

UCSS for Call Manager is based on node licenses for example a 7816-CCM
SKU comes with a CCM node license for 500 users and the corresponding
UCSS sku and ESW would be for 500 users. If you used the PUT tool you
would receive a CM PAK key for 500 users. If you purchased CUWL you
would be required to purchase ESW&UCSS for 3 years as its bundled with
CUWL.

 

 

 

HTH,

Mike

	Ever since we upgrade from 4.1 to 6.1 last spring I have been
confused about how CCM licensing from Cisco works, what is really needed
etc.     I know I need DLU's for phones and I think I understand that.
What confuses me is how the server nodes are licensed and how ESW, UCSS
is licensed.   There is a persistent reference to "number of users"
however no where can I find a definition of "user" for this purpose.
Can anyone give me the "101" on call manager licensing, ESW and UCSS?
