Documentation Guide for Cisco Unified Communications Manager and IM and Presence Service, Release 12.5(1)
Revised: August 31, 2023

Documentation Guide

About this Guide

This guide contains an overview of the documentation that is available for Release 12.5(1) of Cisco Unified Communications Manager and the IM and Presence Service, in addition to subsequent SU releases.

SU Releases
For SU releases, use these guidelines to determine which document to use:

  •  If an SU document version exists that matches the specific SU release that you are running, use that SU document rather than the baseline 12.5(1) version as the document contains updated information that was not in the 12.5(1) baseline.
  • If the document was republished for SU releases, but not the specific SU that you are running, use the latest version of the document where the document version is less than, or equal to, the version that you are running. For example, if you are running  12.5(1)SU1, you can use documents from 12.5(1) or 12.5(1)SU1 (use the latest version of the document), but you cannot use documents from 12.5(1)SU2 as it is a higher release, and may contain features that are not included in your release.
  • If no SU version of the document exists, use the 12.5(1) baseline version.

Documentation Restructure 12.5(1)SU1 and Later

Following is a summary of the documentation restructure effort that was a part of 12.5(1)SU1. For this release and later releases, many Unified Communications Manager documents were restructured in order to improve usability and to streamline the documentation set. As part of this effort, one new guide is added, three existing guides are reworked, and five existing guides are deprecated. This overall effort reduces the size of the Unified Communications Manager documentation suite by four guides.
Table 1: Restructured Documents for 12.5(1)SU1 and Later

Restructured Documents Description

System Configuration Guide| As of 12.5(1)SU1, the System Configuration Guide is shortened and streamlined to create acomplete post-install system setup. Basic security and SSO configurations are added to fill out the basic setup, while advanced call processing features are moved to the Feature Configuration Guide. This new guide forms the Unified Communications Manager prerequisite for deploying an advanced Cisco call processing solution.
Restructured Documents| Description
---|---
Feature Configuration Guide| This guide is expanded as the following advanced call processing topics are moved to this guide from the System Configuration Guide :
•  Call Control Discovery
•  External Call Control
•  Call Queuing
•  Call Throttling
•  Logical Partitioning
•  Location Awareness
•  Flexible DSCP Marking and Video Promotion
•  SIP Normalization and Transparency
•  SDP Transparency Profiles
•  Mobile and Remote Access
In addition, the following new sections are added for 12.5(1)SU1 and later:
•  Headsets Managements
•  Video Endpoints Management
Administration Guide| As of 12.5(1)SU1, the Administration Guide for Cisco Unified Communications Manager is expanded to include consolidated administration information from the Changing the IP Address, Hostname and Domain document, the Cisco Unified Reporting Administration Guide document and many sections from the existing Cisco Unified Serviceability Administration Guide documentation, all of which are deprecated for 12.5(1)SU1 and later.

In addition to the above updates, an overview of troubleshooting information has been inserted into the Administration Guide.

Call Reporting and Billing Administration Guide| This new document simplifies call reporting and billing administration documentation, consolidating existing material from the documents Cisco Unified CDR Analysis and Reporting Administration Guide and the Call Detail Records Administration Guide , both of which are now deprecated. It also adds CDR Repository and billing server information that was available previously with the Serviceability documentation. The new guide simplifies the overall structure and provides a clearer setup process:

Table 2: Restructured Documents for 12.5(1)SU3 and Later

Restructured Documents Description

Security Guide| The Security Guide is restructured for Release 12.5(1)SU3. The new guide is streamlined and enhanced to make it easy to configure and deploy security for Unified Communications Manager and registered endpoints. The new guide is split into three sections:
•  Basic Security —Contains information on how to configure basic security on Unified Communications Manager and on registered endpoints.
•  User Security —Contains information on how to manage identity, authentication, and user access.
•  Advanced Security Features —Contains information on how to deploy advanced security features such as FIPS Mode, Enhanced Security Mode, and V.150.
The book also includes enhanced information with new topics on subjects like Security Hardening and Identity Management that help you make security decisions for your deployment.
Push Notifications Deployment for Cisco Jabber on iPhone and iPad| This document describes how to configure Push Notifications for Cisco Jabber on iPhone and iPad with Cisco Unified Communications Manager and the IM and Presence Service.
