Unified Communications Manager Express, and other standards-based call-control 
systems. H.263 or H.264 is supported for video communication. See Table 6 for more 
details on system requirements. In Cisco Unified Communications Manager environments, 
advanced conferencing capabilities are exposed on supported IP phones (such as the 
Cisco Unified IP Phone 7940) through Phone View, an Extensible Markup Language (XML) 
application. 
● 
Web conferencing access: Web conferencing access is available from Windows, Mac 
OS, Linux, and Solaris platforms using standard browsers (such as Internet Explorer, 
Safari, and Firefox) and the Adobe Flash Player. Encrypted access is supported through 
HTTPS and SSL. 
● 
Directory integration: Facilitate user profile setup and authentication through Lightweight 
Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) directory integration with Cisco Unified Communications 
Manager, or with Cisco Unified Communications Manager using other standard directories 
(such as Microsoft Active Directory). 
● 
Microsoft Outlook and e-mail integration: Set up and attend meetings from Microsoft 
Outlook using a plug-in that communicates with the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express 
server using HTTP or HTTPS. E-mail notifications are enabled in e-mail environments 
supporting Microsoft Exchange or Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP). 
● 
Network management: Monitoring and alarming are supported through the Simple 
Network Management Protocol (SNMP). 
Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express can be deployed in the following ways: 
● 
On the internal network: This model provides for voice and video conferencing access 
from internal and external endpoints (using gateways), with Web conferencing access 
limited to those with access to the internal network. 
● 
Segmented meeting access: This model addresses the need to make some Web 
meetings available to external users, for example partners and customers, while also 
keeping internal Web meetings, for example confidential forecast meetings, protected from 
Internet access. An additional server is placed in a demilitarized zone (DMZ) and provides 
Internet access to Web conferences set up to allow external participants.
