Cisco Unity 2.4(6) System Requirements, and Supported Hardware and Software
Revised January 10, 2003
This document lists requirements, supported hardware and software, and other necessary information for installing a Cisco Unity™ version 2.4(6) system. It is divided into two parts: "PART 1: Cisco Unity 2.4(6) System Requirements" and "PART 2: Cisco Unity 2.4(6) Supported Hardware and Software."
PART 1: Cisco Unity 2.4(6) System Requirements
•
Documentation and Tools Requirements
•Hardware Requirements
•Software Requirements
•ActiveFax Requirements
•Windows NT or Windows 2000, Exchange, and Network Requirements for Cisco Unity Configurations
•Security Recommendations
•Cisco Unity Configurations
•PART 2: Cisco Unity 2.4(6) Supported Hardware and Software
Documentation and Tools Requirements
•The Cisco Unity Installation Guide for the version of Cisco Unity you are installing. The Cisco Unity Installation Guide is available on Cisco.com at http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/voice/c_unity/index.htm.
•A printout of the integration guide for your phone system. Cisco Unity integration guides are available on Cisco.com at http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/voice/c_unity/index.htm.
•A blank 3.5" 1.44 MB disk for creating an emergency repair disk.
•A test phone.
•A list of settings for the previous voice messaging system configuration, including extensions, transfer settings, and caller input settings. (Subscriber information can be imported from Microsoft Exchange, and from phone systems and voice messaging systems that can generate comma-delimited files.)
If the site had no previous voice messaging system, then you need a list of extensions.
Hardware Requirements
•A modem so that Cisco TAC can, if necessary, access the Cisco Unity server remotely by using pcAnywhere.
•A Cisco Unity system key that enables the applicable integration, number of voice ports, and other options. For Cisco Unity version 2.4(6), the system key shipped with the system attaches to the parallel port on the Cisco Unity server. For Cisco Unity 2.4(6.161) and later, you may use a USB key if the server has a USB port.
•A server that meets Cisco Unity specifications. Refer to the Cisco Unity Supported Platforms List on Cisco.com at http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/cc/pd/unco/un/prodlit/ucutp_st.htm
Caution Cisco TAC does not provide any assistance for installing, customizing, or troubleshooting Cisco Unity on a platform that is not on the
Cisco Unity Supported Platforms List.
•Voice cards that are approved for use with Cisco Unity. (If you are integrating Cisco Unity with Cisco CallManager, the integration does not require voice cards.) See the "Supported Voice Cards and Fax Cards" section and the "Circuit-Switched Phone System Integrations" section.
If you are installing a Cisco Unity system outside the United States and you are connecting it directly to the central office by using an analog loop, you may need to install inline telco filters on the Intel Dialogic voice cards to filter tax impulse signals. For more information, refer to the Intel Dialogic documentation and regulatory notices that ship with the voice cards.
•The necessary cables, line splitters, and adapters to connect the voice cards to the phone system. If you are installing cards that have H.100 connectors, you need an H.100 cable that has at least as many connectors as you have cards (you must connect all cards by using a single cable) but no more than five extra connectors.
•If you are integrating Cisco Unity with Cisco CallManager and using ActiveFax, a separate server for ActiveFax that meets Cisco Unity specifications. Refer to the Cisco Unity Supported Platforms List on Cisco.com at http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/cc/pd/unco/un/prodlit/ucutp_st.htm
Software Requirements
Software Requirements—Cisco Unity Server
The system must not be running any OEM version of Cisco Unity.
The following required software is included with Cisco Unity baseline systems but must be purchased from another vendor for Cisco Unity component systems:
•Microsoft Windows NT Server 4.0 or Windows 2000 Server.
The following required software is included with Cisco Unity baseline and component systems:
•Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) version 2.5 or later. (MDAC is installed automatically with Windows 2000 Server.)
•Microsoft Exchange version 5.5. You may also need to purchase Client Access Licenses (CALs), depending on the Cisco Unity configuration.
Caution Exchange 2000 is not supported with Cisco Unity version 2.4(6).
Cisco Unity ships with the Voice Mail Run-Time Edition of Exchange Server version 5.5. It is a full version of Exchange and can be used for any Cisco Unity configuration.
With the Voice Mail Run-Time Edition, if you are installing Cisco Unity in either Voice Messaging configuration (so that Exchange contains only voice messages, and subscribers access messages by using only a phone), you do not need to purchase CALs. If you are installing Cisco Unity in either Unified Messaging configuration, you need CALs for all Cisco Unity subscribers. However, if you are adding Cisco Unity to an existing Exchange deployment, you probably already have the necessary CALs.
The following Exchange editions are supported:
–Voice Mail Run-Time Edition of Exchange Server version 5.5.
–Exchange Server (Standard Edition) version 5.5.
•Exchange 5.5 Service Pack 4.
•Microsoft Internet Explorer version 5.5 or 5.01. We strongly recommend that you install Internet Explorer 5.5 because of the additional virus protection that it provides.
•Internet Explorer 5.5 Service Pack 2. While not strictly required by the Cisco Unity installation process, we strongly recommend that you download and install Internet Explorer 5.5 Service Pack 2 because of the additional virus protection that it provides. (Internet Explorer 5.5 Service Pack 1, not Service Pack 2, is automatically installed if you are using the Internet Explorer 5.01 and 5.5 disc from the Cisco Unity compact disc set.)
•Symantec pcAnywhere version 9.2 or later, host-only edition.
•Cisco Unity.
•If you are integrating Cisco Unity with Cisco CallManager, a version of the Cisco Unity-CM TSP that is compatible with the version of Cisco Unity that you are installing and the version of Cisco CallManager that is currently installed. For a table showing the compatible versions of Cisco Unity, Cisco CallManager, and the Cisco Unity-CM TSP, see the "Compatibility Matrix: Cisco Unity, the AV-Cisco TSP, and Cisco CallManager" section.
The following required software must be downloaded from the Microsoft website:
•For Windows NT Server 4.0, Windows NT Service Pack 6a.
•For Windows NT Server 4.0, Windows NT 4.0 Option Pack.
•For Windows 2000 Server, Windows 2000 Service Pack 2. While not strictly required by the Cisco Unity installation process, Windows 2000 Service Pack 2 is strongly recommended.
•The NIMDA patch. While not strictly required by the Cisco Unity installation process, the NIMDA patch is strongly recommended. For information on downloading and installing the patch, see http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/788/AVVID/nimda_fix_unity.html.
Software Requirements—Client Workstations
The following required client software must be purchased from another vendor for client workstations:
•Microsoft Outlook 2002 (XP), Outlook 2000, or Outlook 98—required for installing the Cisco Unity server in a Unified Messaging configuration and for subscribers to access voice messages by using ViewMail for Microsoft Outlook.
Outlook 97 is not supported.
•Windows XP, Windows 2000, Windows NT 4.0, Windows ME, or Windows 98—required:
–For installing the Cisco Unity server in a Unified Messaging configuration and for subscribers to access voice messages by using ViewMail.
–For subscribers to access the Cisco Unity Administrator or the Cisco Unity ActiveAssistant.
Windows 95 is not supported.
The following required client software is included with Cisco Unity baseline and component systems:
•Internet Explorer version 5.5 or 5.01—required for subscribers to access the Cisco Unity Administrator or the ActiveAssistant.
Internet Explorer version 6.0 is not supported.
•Internet Explorer 5.5 Service Pack 1 (the service pack is automatically installed if you are using the Internet Explorer 5.01 and 5.5 disc from the Cisco Unity compact disc set)—required for subscribers to access the Cisco Unity Administrator or the ActiveAssistant.
ActiveFax Requirements
ActiveFax, the fax server available with previous versions of Active Voice Unity, is still supported on systems upgraded to Cisco Unity 2.4(6). If Cisco Unity is integrated with a circuit-switched phone system, ActiveFax can be run on the Cisco Unity server. If Cisco Unity is integrated with Cisco CallManager, ActiveFax must be run on a separate server.
The following are required:
•If you are integrating Cisco Unity with Cisco CallManager and using ActiveFax, a separate server that meets Cisco Unity specifications.
•Installation discs for Microsoft Windows NT Server 4.0, Windows NT Workstation, or Windows 2000 Server.
•For Windows NT Server or Workstation, you also need Service Pack 6a.
•For Windows 2000 Server, you also need Service Pack 1. However, we strongly recommend that you install Service Pack 2 instead.
Windows NT or Windows 2000, Exchange, and Network Requirements for Cisco Unity Configurations

Unsupported Configurations
The following configurations are not supported with Cisco Unity 2.4(6):
•Exchange 2000 as the e-mail server.
•Lotus Notes as the e-mail server. Cisco Unity can support Lotus Notes users if there is a Lotus Notes connector to the Exchange server within the site.
•Running any application or service on the Cisco Unity server other than those listed in the "Software Requirements" section, the "Supported Optional Microsoft Service Packs" section, and the "Supported Optional Third-Party Software" section.
In particular, running any third-party fax server on the Cisco Unity server is not supported. (ActiveFax, the fax server available with previous versions of Active Voice Unity, is still supported on systems upgraded to Cisco Unity 2.4(6). If Cisco Unity is integrated with a circuit-switched phone system, ActiveFax can be run on the Cisco Unity server. If Cisco Unity is integrated with Cisco CallManager, ActiveFax must be run on a separate server.)
•Cisco Unity running on Windows 2000 DataCenter Server.
•Software-based RAID on the Cisco Unity server.
The following configuration is supported but not recommended:
•Cisco Unity can run in a Windows 2000 Server domain that is running in native mode; however, the Internet Voice Connector will not install on a domain controller in this configuration. Also, there may be performance degradation at a high port/user count.
Supported Optional Microsoft Service Packs
Microsoft frequently provides critical updates or security updates to address security vulnerabilities with Windows NT, Windows 2000, Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS), and Microsoft Exchange 5.5. These updates are limited to changes required to fix specific security problems. They do not include general defect fixes or new functionality. Cisco TAC provides support for Cisco Unity systems that have installed critical updates or security updates from Microsoft.
Microsoft occasionally releases service packs, which contain a collection of fixes generated since the general product release. Service packs include most fixes that were released as critical updates. Because the service pack scope is broad, each service pack must be thoroughly tested to ensure that changes do not adversely affect Cisco Unity. Cisco TAC does not support new service packs until they have been qualified for use with Cisco Unity.
Do not install a service pack that has not been qualified, or Cisco TAC will not help you resolve problems until you uninstall it.
The following Microsoft service packs have been qualified for optional use with Cisco Unity:
•Internet Explorer version 5.5 Service Pack 2 (strongly recommended)
•Internet Explorer version 5.01 Service Pack 2
•Windows 2000 Encryption Pack
•Windows 2000 Service Pack 2 (strongly recommended)
•Windows 2000 Service Pack 1
Supported Optional Third-Party Software
