Just so you know there is currently no integration available between the Cisco UC500 series and Lotus Sametime (any version). There are plug-ins available but they only work with Cisco’ non-Express product line.

I had to do this today for a customer of ours. Spent more time digging through all my notes than doing the work so figured I share it with all of you — and keep it easy fo me to find in the future ;)

Here goes…

.Login to the UC520 device

.Connect to the Integrate service engine:

#service-module integrated-Service-Engine 0/0 session

#conf t

#voicemail live-record pilot-number 711   (711 will be the LiveRecord extension)

#voicemail live-record beep duration 50   (in ms)

#voicemail live-record beep interval 30    (one 50ms beep every 30 seconds)

#end

#wr    (save my config)

#exit   (close the ISE connection)

#conf t
#telephony-service
#live-record 711   (tell the system to use extension 711)

#ephone-dn  70  (can be any unused DN, using 70 for my example)
#number 711 no-reg primary   (again, 711 is the LiveRcd extension)
#call-forward all 600   (send all calls to the voice-mail system, ours is at extension 600)

#exit

#wr   (save my config)

Lastly, add LiveRcd to your template.

#softkeys connected  Hold Endcall Trnsfer Confrn LiveRcd Acct Park

That’s it, enjoy!

UC520 CUE loads but AA and voicemail doesn’t work

Dec 23rd

I had recently upgraded a Cisco UC520 device to the latest software revision, version 8.0. It ran well for about a week then yesterday we had to reboot the device due to a locked DN. Upon rebooting the device the CUE loaded but when dialing the AA or voicemail system nothing but dead air was heard then eventually a busy signal.

To resolve the issue we had to un-configure and reconfigure the Intergrated Service Engine settings.
*The fix below has been modified to reflect the default configuration.

Router#config t
Router(config)#interface IntegratedServiceEngine 0/0
Router(config-if)#no ip unnumbered
Router(config-if)#no service-module ip address 10.1.10.1 255.255.255.252
Router(config-if)#no service-module ip default-gateway 10.1.10.2
Router(config-if)#end

Then remove the default route for CUE:

Router(config)#no ip route 10.1.10.1 255.255.255.255 IntegratedServiceEngine 0/0

Finally, add all these commands back under the interface and the default route.

Cisco UC520 adding second language Payload error (aka How install a second language on the UC500/UC520)

Hello ninjas,

For my first post I’m going to let everyone know about an issue I ran into after upgrading a Cisco UC520 device to the latest 8.0.
** update: you can also use the below information to install a second language on the UC500/UC520 **

Firstly, I downloaded v8.0 on December 1st and there was another package posted December 3rd which contained an updated file, cue-vm-langpack.uc500.7.1.3.pkg, with a different date stamp and size than the one downloaded December 1st.

Seeing I had upgraded the UC520 with the December 1st package I needed to delete the file cue-vm-langpack.uc500.7.1.3.pkg from the system and download it to the UC again; as they [Cisco] seem to have changed it.

Software/Files Used

3CDaemon vers 2.0 rev 10 (download from here)

PuTTY (download from here)

UC520 8.0(0) – Software Package (download from here)

cue-vm-fr_CA-langpack.uc500.7.1.3.prt1 (download from here)

Instructions

1. Install the 3CDaemon and configure the FTP services (TFTP can’t be used for the language installer)

2. Copy the files  cue-vm-langpack.uc500.7.1.3.pkg (extracted from the file SCUE-UC500-7.1.3.zip within UC520-8.0.0.zip) and cue-vm-fr_CA-langpack.uc500.7.1.3.prt1 into the FTP folder you’ve setup in step 1.

3. Use PuTTy to connect to the UC520 device

4. Commands ran from the console:

    1. service-module integrated-Service-Engine 0/0 session

    Press [ENTER] in case you don’t see the prompt UC500-CUE#

    2.  software remove downloadfiles
    3.  software install upgrade url ftp://IP ADDRESS OF FTP SERVER/cue-vm-langpack.uc500.7.1.3.pkg username <USERNAME> password <PASSWORD>

    example: software install upgrade url ftp://192.168.2.25/cue-vm-langpack.uc500.7.1.3.pkg username cisco password cisco

    5. Now let’s install the French Canadian language pack

    1. software install add url ftp://IP ADDRESS OF FTP SERVER/cue-vm-langpack.uc500.7.1.3.pkg username <USERNAME> password <PASSWORD>

    example: software install upgrade url ftp://192.168.2.25/cue-vm-langpack.uc500.7.1.3.pkg username cisco password cisco

    2. go ahead and confirm

    3. select option 10 for French Canadian

    4. enter x to tell the installer you’re done

    Hope the above helps someone as we’ve spent close to the entire day on this. Make sure you have a full backup of your system along with the prompt and AA scripts. Let me know if I’ve left anything out; it’s the end of my day and wanted to post this before I got too lazy

    You could technically install any additional language pack using the steps mentioned above just make sure the correct .prt2 file exists in the FTP folder.
