– Exchange Server 2019

– Exchange Server 2016 with Cumulative Update 12 and earlier

– Exchange Server 2013 with Cumulative Update 22 and earlier

Microsoft Business Productivity Online Suite (BPOS-Dedicated) is now supported in Cisco Unity Connection.You can configure Unity Connection to synchronize voice messages in Unity Connection user's mailbox with the user's Exchange mailbox configured on Microsoft Business Productivity Online Suite (BPOS-Dedicated) environments as well as other third party hosted dedicated Exchange environments. For more information on Unity Connection's integration with Microsoft BPOS Dedicated environments, see the “Cisco Unity Connection 10.x Overview” chapter of the Design Guide for Cisco Unity Connection Release10.x at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/connection/10x/design/guide/10xcucdgx.html.
Microsoft Office 365 is supported with Cisco Unity Connection. It is a cloud hosted collaboration solution provided by Microsoft. Using Microsoft Office 365, you can access emails and calendars anywhere. For more information on Unity Connection integration with Microsoft Office-365, see the “Configuring Cisco Unity Connection and Microsoft Office-365 for Unified Messaging" chapter of the Unified Messaging Guide for Cisco Unity Connection at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/connection/10x/unified_messaging/guide/10xcucumgx.html.
Exchange servers and Active Directory domain controllers/global catalog servers (DC/GCs) can be installed in any hardware virtualization environment supported by Microsoft. (Cisco does not provide technical support for message-store servers or for DC/GCs.)
The Microsoft Exchange message store can be stored in any storage area network configuration supported by Microsoft. (Cisco does not provide technical support for message-store servers.)
Exchange clusters are supported.
To access Exchange servers in more than one forest, you must create at least one unified messaging service for each forest. Unity Connection supports a maximum of 20 unified messaging services per Unity Connection server.
Depending on the number of voice messaging ports on each Unity Connection server, the path of connectivity must have the following guaranteed bandwidth with no steady-state congestion:

– For 50 voice messaging ports on each server—7 Mbps

– For 100 voice messaging ports on each server—14 Mbps

– For 150 voice messaging ports on each server—21 Mbps

– For 200 voice messaging ports on each server—28 Mbps

– For 250 voice messaging ports on each server—35 Mbps

The bandwidth numbers above are intended as guidelines to ensure proper operation of mailbox synchronization. For information on bandwidth requirements for Unity Connection clusters, see the “Requirements for a Unity Connection 10.x Cluster” section. Additional conditions such as network congestion, CPU utilization, and message size may contribute to lower throughput than expected. Call-control and call-quality requirements are in addition to the guidelines above and should be calculated by using the bandwidth recommendations in the applicable Cisco Unified Communications SRND at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/solutions/ns340/ns414/ns742/ns818/landing_uc_mgr.html.

The default Unity Connection configuration is sufficient for a maximum of 2000 users and 80 milliseconds of round-trip latency between Unity Connection and Exchange servers. For more than 2000 users and/or more than 80 milliseconds of latency, you can change the default configuration. For more information, see the “Latency” section in the “Single Inbox in Cisco Unity Connection” chapter of the Design Guide for Cisco Unity Connection Release 10.x. at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/connection/10x/design/guide/10xcucdgx.html.
Users must be assigned to a class of service that is enabled for using single inbox.
For each user configured for single inbox, an email client that is configured to access the user’s Exchange mailbox. For full single-inbox functionality, we recommend that you use Microsoft Outlook and install Cisco ViewMail for Microsoft Outlook. ViewMail for Outlook is required to:

– Review secure Unity Connection voice messages by using Outlook.

– Compose, reply to, or forward synchronized voice messages by using Outlook.

Other email clients can be used to access Unity Connection voice messages in Exchange, but users will not have the functionality provided by ViewMail for Outlook.

For information on Unity Connection support for Outlook, see the “Requirements for Accessing Voice Messages Using Cisco ViewMail for Microsoft Outlook 8.5 and Later” section.

For users who are configured for single inbox and SpeechView transcriptions, the message in Exchange is not updated with the transcribed text. You can configure Unity Connection to send a notification message that contains the transcription.
When message expiration and single inbox are configured, the.wav file is not deleted from the message in Exchange. Voice messages in Unity Connection are still removed from user mailboxes and are replaced with a recording that tells the user “This message is expired.”

The synchronization of voice messages in Unity Connection and Exchange Mailboxes for single inbox (SIB) users is now supported over both IPv4 and IPv6.

Note Single Inbox over IPv6 is supported only for Exchange 2013, Exchange 2016, Exchange 2019 and Microsoft Office 365.

Requirements for Unity Connection 10.x Networking

Cisco Unity Connection servers can be joined through intrasite networking to form a single site (known as a Digital Network). you may add upto a maximum of ten Untiy Connection server or cluster per site. In addition, two Unity Connection sites can be linked together through intersite networking for a total of up to 20 Cisco Unity Connection servers sharing the same directory information

Alternatively, you can use intersite networking to link a single Cisco Unity Connection site of up to ten servers with a single Cisco Unity server or Digital Network. (In a Cisco Unity Connection cluster, only the publisher server is joined to the network, so a cluster counts as a single server toward the limit of ten in each site.)

Beginning with Cisco Unity Connection10.0(1) and later, HTTPS networking can be used to link up to 25 Cisco Unity Connection servers or clusters in a single site network, referred to as HTTPS Unity Connection network.

See the applicable section:

Requirements for Intrasite Networking

Intrasite networking uses SMTP to provide directory synchronization and message networking among Cisco Unity Connection servers.

Unity Connection version 7.x servers, version 8.x, and version 10.x servers can coexist in the same site as long as each 7.x server meets all the applicable requirements in the System Requirements for Cisco Unity Connection Release 7.x at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/connection/7x/requirements/7xcucsysreqs.html.

Intrasite networking has the following requirements:

Each version 10.x server in the site must meet all applicable requirements listed in this document.
Each server in the site must be able to access the other servers in the site directly through TCP/IP port 25 (SMTP), or SMTP messages must be routed among the servers through an SMTP smart host.
If your site includes one or more Unity Connection clusters, you must have a smart host available to resolve the SMTP domain of the cluster to both the publisher and subscriber servers in order for message traffic to reach the cluster subscriber server in the event that the publisher server is down.
The virtual directory created by the networked Unity Connection servers must not exceed the maximum total numbers of objects listed in Table 7 in the “Directory Object Limits for Unity Connection 10.x” section.

Note Intrasite networking is not supported for use with Cisco Business Edition.

Requirements for Intersite Networking

You can use intersite networking to link one Unity Connection site to another Unity Connection site. Or you can use it to link a Unity Connection site to a Cisco Unity server or Cisco Unity Digital Network. The linked sites are called a Cisco Voicemail Organization. To create an intersite link, you choose a single location on each site to act as a gateway to the other site. The gateways exchange directory synchronization information by using HTTP or HTTPS; voice messages are exchanged between the sites by using SMTP.

Intersite networking has the following requirements:

Each Unity Connection server or cluster in the Cisco Voicemail Organization must be at version 10.x, and must meet all applicable requirements listed in this document.
Each Unity Connection site must meet the requirements listed in the “Requirements for Intrasite Networking” section.
Each Unity Connection site gateway must be able to route SMTP messages to the remote site gateway (when two Unity Connection sites are linked) or to the Microsoft Exchange organization for delivery to the Interoperability Gateway for Microsoft Exchange (when a Unity Connection site is linked to a Cisco Unity site). This routing can be done either directly through TCP/IP port 25 or through an SMTP smart host.
The site gateways must be IP addressable and able to route to each other by using HTTP on port 80 or HTTPS on port 443.

For more information on virtual servers and the specifications on the memory that must be added, see the Cisco Unity Connection 10.x Supported Platforms List at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/connection/10x/supported_platforms/10xcucspl.html.

The virtual directory created by the networked sites must not exceed the maximum total numbers of objects listed in Table 7 in the “Directory Object Limits for Unity Connection 10.x” section.
Intersite networking can be used to link a maximum of two sites. (Adding more than one intersite link per site is not supported.)

Note Intersite networking is not supported for use with Cisco Business Edition.

Requirements for HTTPS Networking

You can use HTTPS networking to link one or more Cisco Unity Connection servers or clusters to form a well-connected network based on hub-spoke topology. The servers that are joined together in the network are referred as locations (Unity Connection cluster counts as one location in the network). Within a network, each location uses HTTP or HTTPS to exchange directory information and SMTP to exchange voice messages with each other.

HTTPS networking has the following requirements:

Each Unity Connection server or cluster in the HTTPS network must be at version 10.x or later, and must meet all applicable requirements listed in this document.
Each server in the network must be IP addressable and able to exchange directory information by using HTTP on port 8081 or HTTPS on port 8444.
The servers in the network must be able to route SMTP messages to the other servers in the network directly through TCP/IP port 25 or through an SMTP smart host.
If your network includes one or more Unity Connection clusters, you must have a smart host available to resolve the SMTP domain of the cluster to both the publisher and subscriber servers, which helps divert message traffic to the subscriber server when the publisher server is down.
The virtual directory created by the networked Unity Connection servers must not exceed the maximum numbers of objects listed in Table 8 and Table 9 in the “Directory Object Limits for Unity Connection 10.x” section section.
HTTPS networking can be used to link a maximum of 25 Unity Connection locations.
HTTPS networking supports single site network only. (Connecting multiple Unity Connection sites in a network is not supported.)
HTTPS networking is not supported with intrasite or intersite networking.

Note HTTPS networking is not supported for use with Cisco Business Edition version 3000. Before using HTTPS networking, ensure that directory replication takes place properly in Intrasite or Intersite Networking. Also, the Unity Connection servers should be using appropriate OVA as per topology and directory size.

Requirements for Using OpenAM Single Sign-On Feature

In case of a cluster, Cisco Unity Connection is required on each cluster of a server.

The single sign-on feature requires the following third-party applications:

Microsoft Windows Server 2003 with SP1/SP2 or Microsoft Windows Server 2008 with SP2 for deploying Active Directory.
Microsoft Active Directory server (any version).
ForgeRock Open Access Manager (OpenAM) version 10.x.
Apache Tomcat 7.0.0

The single sign-on feature uses Active Directory and OpenAM in combination to provide single sign-on access to client applications.

These third party products must meet the following configuration requirements:

Active Directory must be deployed in a Windows domain-based network configuration, not only as an LDAP server.
The OpenAM server must be accessible by name on the network to all client systems, Unity Connection server, and the Active Directory server.
The OpenAM server can be installed on Microsoft Windows 2003 server or RedHat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) server.
The Active Directory (Domain Controller) server, Windows clients, Cisco Unity Connection, and
OpenAM must be in the same domain.
DNS must be enabled in the domain.
The clocks of all the entities participating in single sign-on must be synchronized

For more information on accessing web application pages through SAML SSO, see the “Overview of SAML SSO in Cisco Unity Connection" section of “Managing Security Assertion Markup Language Single Sign-On (SAML SSO) in Cisco Unity Connection 10.x” chapter in System Administration Guide for Cisco Unity Connection Release 10.x http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/connection/10x/administration/guide/10xcucsag112.html.

Note The SAML SSO feature is supported with Unity Connection 10.0(1) and later releases only.

The SAML SSO feature requires the following third party applications:

Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 /Windows Server 2012.
LDAP Directory.
The Identity Provider authenticates an end user and returns SAML assertions. SAML Assertion shows either Yes (authenticated) or No (authentication fails) response. When an end user enters the username and password, the user credentials authenticates on Identity Provider. This further gives access to web applications on the Cisco Unity Connection server. The supported Identity Providers are:

– ADFS (Active Directory Federated Services) version 2.0

– Ping Federate version 6.10.0.4

– OpenAM version 10.1

– Oracle Identity Manager version 11.0

To enable the SAML SSO feature from Cisco Unity Connection Administration, make sure you have at least one LDAP user in Unity Connection with administrator rights.

Note Unity Connection supports SAML 2.0 protocol for the SAML SSO feature.

The third party products mentioned above must meet the following configuration requirements:

Active directory domain controllers/global catalog servers and Active Directory Federated Services (ADFS) can be installed in any hardware virtualization environment supported by Microsoft. (Cisco does not provide technical support for DC/ GCs or ADFS that acts as an Identity Provider).
The Identity Provider server is installed on Microsoft Windows 2008 R2 or Windows 2012.
The Identity Provider that you are using must be accessible by its hostname on the network to all the client systems like Unity Connection.
The clocks of all entities participating in SAML SSO must be synchronized.

See the third-party product documentation for more information about the above products.

Note Make sure that Domain Name Server (DNS) is configured on Cisco Unity Connection as SAML SSO is not supported with only IP address configuration of Unity Connection.

All web browsers that are currently supported with Unity Connection 10.0(1) and later, allows SAML SSO access to web client applications.

If you are running Unity Connection on a physical server and want to migrate over to Unity Connection 10.x, then it is required to migrate from a physical server to a virtual server since the physical Unity Connection server is not supported for use with Unity Connection 10.x.
A physical host that meets Unity Connection specifications and that is supported for use in a virtualized environment. See the Cisco Unity Connection 10.x Supported Platforms List at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/connection/10x/supported_platforms/10xcucspl.html.
The applicable edition of VMware vSphere ESXi Version 4.0 Update 1, 4.1, 5.0, 5.1 and 5.5 installed on the host server on which the Unity Connection virtual machine will run:

– For VMware configurations supporting up to 10,000 users: Any edition.

– For VMware configurations supporting up to 20,000 users: Enterprise Plus edition (required only for ESXi Version 4.0 Update 1 and 4.1)

Note Updates to ESXi Version 5.0 Update 1,5.1, 5.5, 6.0 and 6.5 are supported.

For VMware configurations supporting 300GB and 500GB vDisks: The datastore where the Unity Connection virtual machine will reside must be formatted with a VMware VMFS block size large enough to allow for the intended size of the virtual hard disk for the Unity Connection virtual machine. For example, a block size of 1MB limits the maximum virtual hard disk size to 256GB. A block size of 2MB allows 512GB virtual disks.
When deployed with the ESXi4.1, Cisco Unity Unity Connection will support the VMware Boot from SAN functionality. See http://docwiki.cisco.com/wiki/Unified_Communications_VMware_Requirements#ESXi_Support_for_Messaging_and_Presence_Applications for more information.
Unity Connection 8.0(2) and later can be run on specification based hardware from Cisco, HP and IBM. However, some restrictions are applied. See http://docwiki.cisco.com/wiki/Specification-Based_Hardware_Support for more information.
The support for the Input/Output devices on the servers that are running Unity Connection as a virtual appliance has been enhanced to include FCoE and Cisco Converged Network adapters. See http://docwiki.cisco.com/wiki/Specification-Based_Hardware_Support#IO_Devices for more information.
Unity Connection 8.0(2) and later now support FC, FCOE, iSCSI, and NFS SAN environments with some restrictions. See http://docwiki.cisco.com/wiki/Shared_Storage_Considerations for more information.
For list of VMware features that are supported for Unity Connection, see http://docwiki.cisco.com/wiki/Unified_Communications_VMware_Requirements#VMware_Feature_Support_for_Messaging_and_Presence_8.0.282.29_through_8.6.281.29.
Accessing a USB key is not supported.
Oversubscribing processors and memory is not supported.
For VMware vSphere ESXi 5.1 and earlier, at least one processor core must be available for the VMware ESXi hypervisor / scheduler.
For VMware vSphere ESXi 5.5 and later, Latency Sensitivity function is included to reduce virtual machine latency. When the Latency Sensitivity value is set to high you do not need to leave any unused processor core for the ESXi hypervisor / scheduler.
If the hyper-threading feature is available on the CPU, you should enable the feature to create logical cores. However, the logical cores do not change the Unity Connection rule that is based on 1:1 mapping of physical cores to vcpu not the logical cores to vcpu.
All virtual disks assigned to the Unity Connection virtual machine must be configured in independent-persistent mode, which provides the best storage performance.
A network time protocol (NTP) server must be accessible to the Unity Connection server.
When configuring a Unity Connection cluster, you can install Unity Connection on one physical server and one virtual machine, or on two virtual machines, but the two virtual machines must be on separate physical hosts. When using blades as hosts, we recommend that the blades be on separate chassis.

Directory Object Limits for Unity Connection 10.x

This section contains two tables that list directory object limits.

Table 6 lists the maximum numbers of certain objects that can be created on a Cisco Unity Connection server. For these objects, the limits apply regardless of the platform overlay in use by the server.

If you are using legacy (intrasite or intersite networking) or HTTPS networking to link Unity Connection servers, the limits in Table 6 apply to each Unity Connection server in the site or organization.

Table 7 applies to the virtual directory created by the networked Unity Connection servers. When Unity Connection servers are networked together by using intrasite networking, replication between locations creates the virtual directory consisting of the users, administrator-defined contacts, system distribution lists, partitions, search spaces, and VPIM locations that are homed on each location, along with data about the locations themselves. When servers are networked together by using intersite networking, the virtual directory for an individual server consists of all users from both sites plus the administrator-defined contacts local to the site to which the server belongs, along with the system distribution lists, partitions, and search spaces on both sites, plus the VPIM locations on the local site.

Table 8 and Table 9 apply to the virtual directory created by the Unity Connection servers connected in an HTTPS network. When Unity Connection servers are linked together by using HTTPS networking, replication between locations creates the virtual directory consisting of the users, administrator-defined contacts, system distribution lists, partitions, search spaces, VPIM locations, and VPIM contacts homed on each location along with the data about the locations themselves.

Limits for other objects that depend on the platform overlay are listed in the Cisco Unity Connection 10.x Supported Platforms List at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/connection/10x/supported_platforms/10xcucspl.html.

Table 6 Directory Object Limits for a Unity Connection 10.x Server
Directory Object	Unity Connection Version 10.x Limit
Classes of service	3.000
Call handlers	40,000
Call routing rules	1,200
Mailbox stores	5
Search spaces	2000
Partitions	2000
User-defined contacts	100,000
VPIM locations	100

The limits in Table 7 apply to the entire site or Cisco Voicemail Organization, regardless of whether the network comprises only two locations or the maximum number of supported locations. (For example, in Unity Connection version 10.x, if the individual server platforms support the limits, you can have 10 locations in one site with 10,000 Unity Connection users each, or 20 locations in two sites with 5,000 Unity Connection users each.)

Table 7 Directory Object Limits for a Unity Connection 10.x Site or Cisco Voicemail Organization
Directory Object	Unity Connection Version 10.x Limit
Unity Connection locations	10 per site
VPIM locations	100 per site
Intersite links	1 per site
Total number of Unity Connection users and administrator-defined contacts	100,000
System distribution lists	100,000
Members per system distribution list	25,000
Total number of distribution list members across all system distribution lists	1.5 million
Nested lists within a distribution list	20
Search spaces	10,000*
Partitions	10,000*

The limits in Table 8 apply to the entire network assuming that the locations use virtual platform overlay supporting 20,000 users.

Table 8 Directory Object Limits for an HTTPS Unity Connection network
Directory Object	Unity Connection Version 10.x Limit
Connection locations	251.
VPIM locations	100
System distribution lists	100,000
Members per system distribution list	25,000
Total number of distribution list members across all system distribution lists	1.5 million
Nested lists within a distribution list	20
Search spaces	10,000*
Partitions	10,000*

1. The limits of Unity Connection locations that can be connected in an HTTPS network differ as per their platform specifications mentioned in Table 9

Note When using more than 2000 search spaces and partitions in a single site, the following activities slow down:

Searching for Search Spaces in the System Administration slows down
Modifying and saving search spaces can take over 6 minutes.
Changing/ Saving/ Reordering Search spaces can take unto 20 mins to replicate across the site.

Table 9 lists the maximum number of certain objects in HTTPS network supported with different platform overlays. The limits mentioned in the table apply to the network assuming that all the Unity Connection locations in the network are of same platform overlay.

Table 9 Directory Object Limits for an HTTPS Unity Connection network

	Virtual Platform Overlay for up to 1,000 Users	Virtual Platform Overlay for up to 5,000 Users	Virtual Platform Overlay for up to 10,000 Users	Virtual Platform Overlay for up to 20,000 Users
Connection locations in the network	3	10	10	25
HTTPS links	1²	3	3	5
Unity Connection local users	1000	5000	10,000	20,000
Remote users	9000	35,000	40,000	80,000
Contacts (administrator-defined and VPIM contacts)	-	20,000	30,000	150,000

^2.It is required to connect 1vCPU server as a spoke location in the network. 1vCPU server cannot be connected as a hub in the network.

Maximum Unity Connection locations supported in HTTPS network are determined based on the following criteria:

Depth of HTTPS network can reach up to second level.
Servers used in the network are of same virtual platform overlay.
HTTPS links supported at each location are same as mentioned in Table 9 .
Maximum of 25 locations can be connected in the network.

For example, if an HTTPS network is created with only 2vCPU servers and each location supports a maximum of 3 HTTPS links then up to 10 locations can be connected in the network. Similarly, the number of Unity Connection locations supported in an HTTPS network is calculated for other virtual platform overlays used by the servers.

An HTTPS Network can be created with a combination of different platform overlays based on the following considerations:

The number of locations that can be connected in an HTTPS Network is governed by the highest platform overlay used in the network.
The directory size depends upon the lowest platform overlay used in the network.

Available Languages for Unity Connection 10.x Components

Revised Aug 24, 2015

Note Languages are not licensed, and Unity Connection 10.x does not enforce a limit on the number of languages you can install and use. However, the more languages you install, the less hard-disk space is available for storing voice messages. In the Cisco Unity Connection 10.x Supported Platforms List (http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/connection/10x/supported_platforms/10xcucspl.html), information on the number of minutes of storage available on each server assumes that you have installed not more than five languages.

This section lists the languages in which Unity Connection components are available.
