Cisco CMS CUCM 8.6 Integration

[Youssef Aoufi]

Hi guys,

I would like to know if i can integrate CMS with CUCM 8.6.

I just finished basic config of my CMS and i want to route calls between them.

Following the docs, the CMS must be configured as a conference bridge , CMS in latest CUCM releases and Telepresence conductor for old. In my case, in V 8.6 i just have the option of telepresence MCU:

Thank you in advance

Because that is not supported, you need CUCM 10.5(2) as the minimum version for that.

Best you could try to do is to use it for direct dialing into spaces, but there's no way you can get ad-hoc with your CUCM release.

Muchas gracias Jaime,

The customer has already purchased the upgrade to V11.5 , so i have to wait until it's done to continue with the integration.

I have another question if you don't mind: Since it's an old deployment, all CUCMs and CUPs servers are configured with IP Addresses without a specified domain. If we keep this config after the upgrade would we be able to setup incoming and outgoing calls from/to CUCM and CMS? or moving to FQDN will be mandatory ?

Not mandatory, but it's strongly recommended so you can have certificates signed with the FQDN of the servers.

I was wondering how could i configure outbound calls settings on CMS to send calls to CUCM if we don't use domain / FQDN on CUCM side?
