<div class="">Hi Team,<br class="">
<br class="">
Cucm cluster 11 was in secure mode once (using hw tokens) - then changed back to non-secure mode. The servers and phones both have the CTL files.
<br class="">
<br class="">
1) What issues can we run into if the hardware tokens expire? (Server has itl and ctl both)<br class="">
Will the phones keep trusting files when it has both ITL AND CTL, based on ITL even if the CTL is corrupt or expired.
<br class="">

</div>
<div>If they expire your chance to update them with anything besides CTLRecovery is gone.</div>
<br class="">
<blockquote type="cite" class="">
<div class="">
<div class="">2) Any real benefit of updating the CTLs using the software CTL tokens by changing to secure mode and then again turn off secure mode?<br class="">
</div>
</div>
</blockquote>
<div><br class="">
</div>
<div>Only to avoid the case where your eTokens expire. It shifts this risk to when the cert that signed the CTL (publisher CallManager.pem) expires instead.</div>
<br class="">
<blockquote type="cite" class="">
<div class="">
<div class="">3) Would it be a good idea to delete the CTL files from the server and phones if we don’t want mixed mode? How can we do it, we can delete the CTL from cli but how abt the phones - can we remove ctl by another method apart from the third party
tools like phone view?<br class="">
</div>
</div>
</blockquote>
<div><br class="">
</div>
<div>Yes, if you really want to make it look like mixed-mode never happened then you have to delete the CTL file everywhere, including at the phones. You are looking at automation via some 3rd party tool to do this.</div>

<div class="">
<div class="">I believe LSC (being used for dot1x) would continue to operate by getting CAPF info from ITL.
<br class="">
</div>
</div>
</blockquote>
<div><br class="">
</div>
Correct, the CAPF cert is in both ITL and CTL so as long as the ITL remains current you won’t have an issue obtaining LSCs.<br class="">
<br class="">
<blockquote type="cite" class="">
<div class="">
<div class="">3) I need to regenerate the certificates as well on this cluster (capf/callmanager/tvs) - will it matter to have an updated CTL or expired?<br class="">
</div>
</div>
</blockquote>
<div><br class="">
</div>
<div>This depends on the phones. There was a bug at one point with 78xx/88xx where they would invalidate their good ITL at boot because the cert that signed it wasn’t in the CTL. If your firmware version is up to date you won’t be exposed to that but.</div>
<br class="">
<blockquote type="cite" class="">
<div class="">
<div class="">4) Another unrelated question if we push a blank ITL file (enabling cluster rollback feature) and then update CTL in a secure CUCM (not something I would do but asking for sake of clarity) will it still trust the updated CTL file based on blank
ITL? <br class="">
</div>
</div>
</blockquote>
<div><br class="">
</div>
<div>Empty ITL is still signed, it just doesn’t have a TFTP or CCM+TFTP role in it, so the phone doesn’t look for signed files from TFTP. Accepting that ITL is still subject to validation of the cert that signed it against the certs in the current trust store
(CTL + ITL).</div>
