Cisco Unity Express Setup (CUE-CME)

Lets setup CUE on a CME router first and then I will show you in another post how we can integrate CUE with CUCM.

Before the initial setup, make sure to bring the cue back to factory default:

se-10-100-1-10#offline

!!!WARNING!!!: If you are going offline to do a backup, it is recommended that you save the current running configuration using the ‘write’ command, prior to going to the offline state.

Putting the system offline will terminate all end user sessions.

Are you sure you want to go offline[n]? : y

cuese-10-100-1-10(offline)>restore factory defaults

Are you sure you want to go offline[n]? : y
cue(offline)> restore factory default
!!!WARNING!!!: This operation will cause all configuration and data on the system to be erased.

This operation is not reversible.
Do you wish to continue[n]? : y
Restoring the system. Please wait …..done
System will be restored to factory default when it reloads.

System will reboot itself and will come back online. After it comes online you can configure  CUE from CLI and then from GUI.

Import users – check the mailbox and set CFNA/CFB.

Defaults – Blank password, Blank Pin (unless you want system generated pass/pin)

Voicemail number – 3220
SIP MWI – Outcalling

Note:

MWI on and off number will appear in drop down. If they don’t then there must be something wrong in the MWI ephone-dn. A common mistake could be missing out the ‘….’ after MWI extension.

After it reloads. Go to Voicemail > VM Configuration > Play Caller ID for External Callers = YES.

You may also use CLI to setup users:

CUE# voicemail callerid

CUE#username scph1 create
CUE#username scph2 create

CUE#username scph1 phonenumber "3001"
CUE#username scph2 phonenumber "3002

CUE#username scph1 pin '12345'
CUE#usernmae scph2 pin '12345'

CUE#conf
#Voicemail mailbox owner 'scph1'
#no tutorial
#end mailbox

#Voicemail mailbox owner 'scph2'
#no tutorial
#end mailbox

FOR MWI, just do 'sh run' and edit this application:

ccn application ciscomwiapplication aa
parameter "strMWI_OFF_DN" "1999"
parameter "strMWI_ON_DN" "1998"
end application

CUE#

ccn subsystem sip
 gateway address "10.10.110.3"
 end subsystem

ccn trigger sip phonenumber 3220
 application "voicemail"
 enabled
 end trigger

CUE#wr mem

You can now test the Voicemail for your IP phones.
