Cisco Unified Presence 6.0 is a software product that must be loaded on a Cisco MCS 7825, 7835,
or 7845 Media Convergence Server and run as a standalone application. It cannot be deployed
with any other Cisco application co-resident on that hardware.
Serviceability
Cisco Unified Presence takes advantage of the same serviceability features as Cisco Unified
Communications Manager. In addition, Cisco Unified Presence has capabilities in the following
areas:
●
Alarms: The presence engine and SIP proxy components have alarms for various failure
scenarios and unexpected behaviors, and the Cisco IP Phone Messenger service has
alarms to identify any abnormalities.
●
Performance counters: Objects and counters are defined to support the presence engine
and SIP proxy components, tracking metrics such as number of actual subscriptions,
notifications, registrations, and instant messages sent through Cisco Unified Presence.
●
Debug and trace utilities: System diagnostic interface (SDI) trace capability is supported to
provide the capability to log, debug, and analyze specific trace data.
●
Service activation: All Cisco Unified Presence components and services can be started,
stopped, and restarted. Although core network components such as configuration agents
are started automatically upon system bootup, various feature capabilities such as the
presence engine and the SIP proxy require manual activation for startup.
●
Monitoring: The Real-Time Monitoring Tool (RTMT) provides all alarming as well as trace
and debug information.
Security
The Security module of Cisco Unified Presence 6.0 addresses internal environment security as
well as external security among Cisco Unified Communications Manager, Cisco Unified Personal
Communicator, and external applications. Its functions include the following:
●
Platform security: The appliance model defined for the common infrastructure within Cisco
Unified Presence and Cisco Unified Communications Manager 6.0 includes Secure Shell
(SSH) Protocol and Secure File Transport Protocol (SFTP) for access to the platform, as
well as HTTPS for access to management applications.
●
Internal application security: Cisco Security Agent supports Cisco Unified Presence as part
of the base application security.
●
IP signaling and transport security: IP signaling and transport security are supported
through Transport Layer Security (TLS) and IP Security (IPsec).
Administration Interfaces
The following administration functions are supported:
●
System administrator GUI for provisioning of system data and default end-user data
●
Bulk Administration Tool for creation of end users
●
End-user GUI for provisioning end-user service data
SIP and SIMPLE Presence Capabilities
