Cisco Unity Connection – Restricted and Unrestricted Version
This product contains cryptographic features and is subject to United States and local country laws governing import, export, transfer and use. Delivery of Cisco cryptographic products does not imply third-party authority to import, export, distribute, or use encryption. Importers, exporters, distributors and users are responsible for compliance with U.S. and local country laws.
Cisco Unity Connection provides two versions of the Connection software – restricted and unrestricted that address import requirements for some countries related to encryption of user data. Restricted version of the Cisco Unity Connection allows you to enable the encryption on the product to use the below given security modules whereas in Unrestricted version, you are not allowed to use the security modules
With restricted and unrestricted versions of Connection software available,
download software or order a
DVD. Upgrading a restricted version to an unrestricted version is supported,
but future upgrades are then limited to unrestricted versions. Upgrading an
unrestricted version to a restricted version is not supported.
In Unity Connection, by default the encryption is disabled for the Restricted
version of the product in Evaluation Mode. Hence you are not allowed to use
the above security modules with Restricted version of Unity Connection until
the product is registered with Cisco Smart Software Manager (CSSM) or Cisco
Smart Software Manager satellite using a token that allows Export-Controlled
Functionality. The behavior of Restricted version of
Unity Connection in Evaluation Mode is similar to the behavior of Unrestricted
version of Unity Connection. When you are upgrading Cisco Unity Connection
from any earlier releases to 12.0(1) and later, you get the following behavior
of encryption on Cisco Unity Connection:
After deregistration, if any of the following services – “Connection Conversation Manager” or “Connection IMAP Server” is restarted, you will not be able to use security modules. For example IMAP in case IMAP Server restart and SCCP/SIP/SRTP in case Connection Conversation Manager in Cisco Unity Connection.
Upgrade from 12.0(1) to 12.0(1) and later will have the existing encryption status of the system after upgrade.
For more information on how to register the product with CSSM or satellite,

Cisco Unity Connection 14 available at
https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/voice_ip_comm/connection/14/install_upgrade/guide/b_14cuciumg.html.

version, a CLI command “utils cuc encryption <enable/disable>” can be used.
