Using of Onboard Agents
Onboard agents are third-party software clients, agents or daemons installed on-box, including but not
limited to:
Anti-virus clients
Uninterruptible Power Supply monitoring agents
Management agents
Certain types of onboard agents are supported in Cisco Unified CM Release 4.x. The appliance used by
Cisco Unified CM Release 5.0 and later releases does not support installation of onboard agents, rather
it exposes APIs for third-party integration.
For more details, see the November 2007 bulletin on Third-Party Platform Agents at
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/sw/voicesw/ps556/prod_bulletins_list.html.
Call Detail Records and Call Maintenance Records
CDR and CMRs are used for a variety of uses including billing, chargeback, administrative oversight
and diagnostics. In addition to a canned application for managing CDR/CMR, Cisco Unified CM
Release 4.x supported various means of direct database access for external systems to access the
CDR/CMR data. Cisco Unified CM Release 5.0 and later releases use SFTP to push formatted files off
Cisco Unified CM to the requesting application.
