CUCM Unrestricted Software and IP Phone SSL VPN

[James Hawkins]

Hi,

I need to know whether CUCM 8.x clusters running Unrestricted versions of CUCM can support phones using the IP Phone AnyConnect SSL VPN feature.

The release notes - see below - state that "Signaling and media encryption is permanently disabled in the unrestricted version"

So I guess that the SSL VPN will not work? - can anyone confirm this to be the case?

Hi James,

The newer versions of the Security guide do show this caveat/restriction

Note The VPN menu and its options are not available in the U.S. export unrestricted version of Cisco Unified Communications Manager.

Hi Rob,

Thanks for confirming this.

I guess that I will be rebuilding a CUCM cluster
