[cisco-voip] Cisco Business Edition 6000 (BE6K) & licensing

[Matthew Loraditch]

BE6000 is a marketing name for what is essentially old fashioned call manager with certain imposed sizing restrictions, separate servers for CUCM and CUC just like if you bought everything regular. License files are separate and are identical to a license you get with a Non-BE. (Which are actually identical to what you get with BE5K) You will get 2 PAKs one for CUCM and one for CUC

Provisioning Manager is something they throw in now, I have not used it so I can't comment on its utility but definitely not required.

I'm about to implement a Cisco Business Edition 6000 (BE6K). I need some answers on a few questions:


1.       Do I require the Cisco Unified Provisioning Manager 8.6 or is this just a "nice to have"?

2.       I'm used to BE being a single "instance" on a MCS server.(On the single dropdown you can access both CUCM and CUC). Do I understand it right that I will deploy separate OVA files for CUCM and CUC?

3.       How will this affect licensing?

4.       Will I get different .lic files from licensing to apply to the separate servers?

Regards
