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

Wed Jul 11 07:41:59 EDT 2012

With BE6K you can order additional node licenses (CUCM & CUC) at no charge.
During a recent battle with ShoreTel  (junk) where ShoreTel was telling the
customer BE6K is node locked at (2). Cisco created a SKU that allows you to
order more than 2 node licenses at no charge , but still being capped at the
1,000 user mark.

Like Matthew said its really full CUCM with a size restriction of 1,000
users.

Oddly enough I was looking at this today and got interupted... another
question to save me from having to look it up. :-) If you purchase CUWL for
CUCMBE6k and run on dual C200s I noticed that you are allowed to run fully
redundant (Pub/Sub, CUC HA and HA CUPS etc) Can anyone confirm that you get
the extra node licenses and Unity HA license with the CUWL package or do you
need to order them via PUT or $0 CUWL addons?

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?
