How can I confirm via the CUCM server itself what licensing type I have on it, and available license for phones etc..?

Thanks

We also have a seperate cluster running 6.3, some sort of Business Edition.

How do I also find out available license for this?#

Thanks

Hi,

From Cisco Call Manager Administration ----> System --->Licensing ----> License Unit report.

You will get Phone license feature  with Units Authorised, Units Used and units remianing.

Same u would get for CCM Node license feature.

Thanks for that.

When buying phones, do they need to come with licences or can i just buy the phone if the CUCM has units remaining?

[Aman Soi]

Hi,

If u have enough licenses[Device license unit {DLUs} ] , then, u can just buy phones.

I have checked and I have 400 units remaining.

Does this mean I can buy any phones without licences now and register them on the CUCM?

[Aman Soi]

Hi,

Number of units consumed depends on IP phone Model.

You need to refer DLU calculator. Please refer the discussion

Thank You for your help.

Last query :-)

I'm trying to figure out how many DLU a CP-6945 requires but can't see it on the calculator or within the System / Licensing / Calculator.

Any ideas where I can get this info?

[Aman Soi]

Hi,

I think it would consume at least 3 units.

You can to System---licensing----License unit calculaotr and find for the 6945 model.

Hi,

When looking on my CUCM 8.x version - I can see 6945 under licensing calculator.

However when looking on my other cluster (6.x) there is not 6945 listed under Licensing Calculator.

Does this mean I cannot use these  phones on my 6.x Cluster?

[Aman Soi]

Hi,

You require min. CUCM version 7.1(2) to support 6945.

Please refer the datasheet.

Signaling protocol support

The phones are supported on Cisco Unified Communications Manager and Cisco Unified Communications Manager Business Edition Versions 7.1(2) and later, compatible with both Skinny Client Control Protocol (SCCP) and Session Initiation Protocol (SIP

Please let me know what is the number of DLU it is showing for 6945.
