Cisco VCS CE1000 Appliance server

[anie.kap24]

Hi, 

am looking at acquiring jabber client licenses to install on my physical appliance so that 

i can do video & BFCP with TP devices already registered to this Gatekeeper. 

we do not have a BE6k in Place but i think this is possible?

Cisco Jabber requires CUCM for call control, it can't register to a VCS.

Hello Patrick,

Ok, that good but let me illustrate the setup/

i have already setup cisco CE1000 VCS-c appliance gatekeeper that  MCU 4505 registers 

to along with other endpoints and effectively do video with multisite  

i now intend to now push jabber client for users on their devices to be able to join multiway video session but i do not have CUCM for call control so i was wondering if i can just acquire jabber client and have it install on the CE1000 VCS-c appliance server and your answer is No?

please confirm.

You are correct, as mentioned by Patrick, Jabber cannot be registered on the VCS.

There used to be a Jabber version (called Movi) that had the capability to register to VCS, but this software is already EoS.
