Cisco Prime Collaboration Provisioning Overview

Cisco Prime Collaboration Provisioning provides provisioning for Cisco Unified Communications initial deployments and implementations. It remains deployed to provide ongoing operational provisioning and activation services for individual subscriber changes.

See Cisco Prime Collaboration 12.X Data Sheet for further details. You can download the image from the Cisco Prime Collaboration software download site.


Note

You can deploy OVAs on VMWare hosts running ESXi 6.0, ESXi 6.5, and ESXi 6.7. The vSphere thick client is not available anymore. Hence, if you are using ESXi 6.5 for deployment with the thin client, you need to use the OVA where the file name specifies 'With ESXi 6.5 using Web client'.
