Just like previous versions of callmanager, you cannot download an iso image of the discs. You can check with your local Cisco account team for a copy of the callmanager disc set. Still you will need licenses for the nodes (Publisher, subscriber etc) and licenses for the phones. The servers require that they have a min. of 72 gig hard drives.

Hi Guroo,

To add a note to Sankars good info. CCM 5.0 and CCM 5.1 are Linux only (CCM 6.X will have both Linux and Windows support / expected sometime in 2007). The other thing you probably want to know is that there is no upgrade path from CCM 4.2 to CCM 5.X

Hope this helps!
