I just got a demo in for www.bridgeoc.com<http://www.bridgeoc.com> for attendant console...
Looks promising...

YMMV.  I would go to 8.5

1.  depends on what box you have.  You will need to look at the 8.5 release notes and see which servers are supported.  If it's not supported...... it sounds like moving to the Cisco UCS produce is the best way to move...

2.  My understanding is that the old phones will keep working at this point in time.

3.  What are your 28xx routers doing?  mgcp, sccp, srst I think you will want to move to the 15T train.

4.  ARC console, or cisco's rebrand of it.  or maybe CUPC, CUCI-LYNC?

Hi All,

Possible discuss before but I have to upgrade my CUCM 6.1 to 8.0,  I have basic question in order start working on it, which version of 8 is stable one right now.

1- Can upgrade be done on same BOX or we can start with new installation and import data?
2- We have 7940, 7960, 7912 and some VG224/ATA 186 and some Cisco 7936 conference (polycom Phone) is also running, if firmware will upgraded for 8.0, do we loose the old model phone, or it will run with new firmware with limited option,  what are the limited option available for these phones, can we still use the fast dials/speed dials, as our most of the user use this service? What about IP communicator do we need some other version of IP communicator where we are using 2.2 right now.

3-Do we need to upgrade our 2811 router IOS, currently we are running 12.4(24)T4,
4-If we loose Auto Attendant in CUCM 8 then what are other option Cisco offering?


If any one have any valuable Cisco upgrading link please do let me know,

Thanks in advance!
