Actually, I'm starting to think on this some more, I think it might be
because of two facts, but please confirm:

1) You signed your C certs with a public CA which leverages these expired
CA certs
2) You enabled TLS verification between CUCM and C (both MRA and B2B?)

I don't typically see encryption on the inside like this, though, I do see
it mentioned in the steps for MRA as if it were a requirement (e.g., how it
says to copy the names of the phone sec prof for the cert).  Though, I also
don't see a lot of B2B deployments where you might want E2E encryption
either.
