As VCS-Expressway is now supported technical co-residency I'm wondering wether the license is part of the bundle (like VCS-C) or if I need to order VCS-E license separately? Can anyone confirm?
Hi,
Licenses for VCS-C are included only. If you wish to run VCS-E on the BE6000 server then you will need to purchase and license that separately.
Regards,
Andy

Question on the devices support (2,500 for high-density and 1,200 for medium-density), is referring to devices Configured or Registered on CUCM? Example 1,300 devices configured but only 1,200 devices are registered?
Thanks!
Hi,
These limits are for configured devices.

Hi ,
My company is a Small sized company (about 40 users), and we want to buy a cisco VoIP System. Which one is benefit for us ? (according to our size ?)
I have a question concerning this specification for the total number of co-resident VM's in the BE6K.
4 UC/Collaboration + 1 Provisioning applications concurrently
If I configure the following then I would still be in compliance with the 1 CPU Core per vCPU required.
CUCM - 2 Cores
IM&P - 1 Core
Unity Connection - 2 Cores (1 for CUC and 1 for ESXi Scheduler)
Unified Attendant Console - 1 Core
Paging Server - 1 Core
This configuration actually leaves me with 1 Core left over since their are 8 total and I am only using 7. I know this is basically 5 UC/Collaboration applications without a Provisioning application. Would/Could this be supported by Cisco? My customer is only about 250 Users.
