The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.

Customers planning to order CMS 2000 M6 must note:
● CMS 2000 M6 does not use a CCW ordering bundle. We no longer require nor auto-include the R-CMS-2K-K9 activation key with Smart Licensing.
● CMS latest versions are designed to work with Smart licensing which removes the requirement for legacy activation licenses.
● Customers not using Smart Licensing (traditional PAK licensing) for existing CMS deployments must purchase R-CMS-2K-K9 separately for every call bridge on CMS 2000 M6.
Ordering guide for Cisco Meeting Server and CMS 2000 M6 will be available for partners here: https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/conferencing/meeting-server/sales-resources-listing.html.
