Describe Cisco Unified Presence Server (CUPS)
Integreted with CUCM, provides call control and on/off hook status.
Also provides signaling with other systems using the following:
a. SIP
b. SIP for Instant Messaging and Presence Leveraging Extensions (SIMPLE)
c. Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol (XMPP)
Clients are available including Cisco Unified Personal Communicator (CUPC)
What are the two operating modes in CUPC.
1. Deskphone mode - CUPC can control a user's deskphone to place calls. CUPC uses CTIQBE for IP phone control. (Computer Telephone Integration Quick Buffer Encoding)
2. Softphone mode - When IP phone is unavailable or user is away form desk, CUPC can activate the softphone based on CSF (Client Services Framework) which registers the softphone with CUCM as a SIP device.
The Administrator must create the CSF device in order to enable this functionality.
What are the 4 Chat features that CUPC supports?
Detail.
TLS-secured chat.
Group Chat.
AD-hoc group chat - stored in CUPC memory.
Persistent chat - stored in an external database that stores the chat rooms and conversations.
Foundation of all Unified COmmunications client software.
Part of CUPC, and extends functionality of MS Outlook and Webex Connect.
Core is voice and video, secure comms with CUCM and comms with IM servers like CUPS.
Only one CSF can be installed at one time on a client PC.
Describe Cisco Unified Presence Archiecture.
What protocols support CUPS.
Standards based application that uses several protocols.
SIP, SIMPLE and XMPP for general presence.
SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) for access to CUCM using Cisco Unified CComms system XML and CUPC config profiles.
CTIQBE (Cisco Telephone Interface Quick Buffer Encoding) for CTI integration for remote call control with MS office Communicator.
HTTP to provide IP Phone Messenger (IPPM) on cisco IP phones.
CUPS Archtecture, What are the 3 core components?
Jabber XCP - provides Presence, IM, contacts listing , messate and call routing and policy and federation.
Rich Presence server - Manages Presence state gathering and Presence=enabled routing.
Group chat storage - Ad-Hoc group chats are normally stored in memory onthe CUPS server. Persistent Chat and message archive need an external database.

Detail steps to configure End Users in CUCM.
In CUCM Admin, Nav to User Management > End User - select user to configure.
Click Device Association button - select users IP phone. (device moves to Controlled Devices pane)
Make sure you select Allow Control of Device from CTI checkbox.
Note: if user uses extension mobility, you must move that device profile to the Controlled Devices pane also.
Detail CSF naming conventions.
CUPC ver 8.0+
CUPC ver 7.0
CUPC 8.0+ - 15 characters, letters and numbers only
CUPC 7.0 - starts with UPC, then 12 characters, only numbers and uppercase letters
Describe CUPS application profiles.
CUPS application profiles allow CUPC to connect and communicate with various resources and apps on the unified communications network.
Each app profile must be assigned to users for them to make use of it.
Simple way is to check Make this the default <profile type> Profile for the system.
