Cisco Unity Express Setup (CUE-CUCM)

Lets setup CUE for CUCM. It looks a strange setup but many customers use Unity express with their Call manager system instead of Unity connection. This typically suits small companies where the voicemail usage is not very high.

At Call manager do the following:

  • Create a CTI Route point – add the line with ext. 3220 which is the voicemail pilot
  • Create CTI Ports which will be used for handling voicemail between Call manager and CUE (3221, 3222)
  • Create a JTAPI user cuejtapi (or any name) from Application user and add CTI ports and CTI Route point under controlled Devices. This user will have Standard CTI Enabled Permission group
  • Create users, assign extension mobility profile (if any) and then select primary extension (must)
  • Go to Voicemail >Pilot > add 3220
  • Go to Voicemail Profile and create voicemail profile CUE-VM
  • In Phones, go under lines and select the Voicemail profile CUE-VM

The CUE settings on the gateway as follows:

!
interface Vlan400
ip address 10.10.202.1 255.255.255.0

interface integrated-service-engine 1/0
ip unnumbered Vlan400

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.

Note:
CUE can only be reached through G711 codec. If you want your remote sites to access CUE then you need
transcoder on CUE router.

If not, then the Region Codec between sites must be G711.
To check configuration of a Transcoder please check Media Resources Section of this blog.
