port map database, and scheduled periodic “pings” with XML to the customer to verify if their location was correct. If not, we logged a ticket for investigation. Was a good idea.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

the proper ERL is set. This is a massive annoyance for CER as we use room-level ERLs. You cannot rename ERLs in CER and the API is useless to manage the content of the application. Also last we learned “delete” doesn’t often delete anything in the database
which runs up against capacity problems if you believe the datasheets.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">I don't think it works yet to be honest. <br>
<br>
The UCM has the capability to extract the information and do something with it, but only if the endpoint sends it. For whatever reason I'm not sure if that's actually supported yet in any of the endpoint firmware.<br>
<br>
I'm waiting for this for Jabber but I think I'm going to be waiting a while. <br>
<br>
No idea why since most of the devices already support supplying cdp/lldp port information which you can see in the registration details.<br>
<br>
I don't think it was very well communicated that this is a bit of an orchestrated effort and the UCM side of it seems to have gotten ahead of other parts somehow.<br>
<br>
If you do get it to work I'd be interested. If it provides a data interface for anything at all better than CER to work properly I will be all over it.<br>
