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

[Matthew Loraditch]

Also here's a tip if you are ordering it new, order 2 of the 50/100 user starter bundles that come with a server. It's a little cheaper than ordering just one bundle and then the second server and extra licenses a-la-carte..

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?
