UCPrep Profiles

Tip

Use the Action search to navigate Automate

Overview

The UCPrep Profiles list view displays all created profiles at the administrator’s hierarchy and below.

UCPrep Profiles are intended to be templates at a higher level in the hierarchy and are then cloned to a lower level for specific settings to a cluster. When cloning a UCPrep Profile, the UC Prep profile name must be unique. UCPrep Profile notes should also be descriptive so that this information is available when the UCPrep Profile Push tool is used.

For example, a provider level profile may contain global element configuration that are not site or cluster specific. At a customer or site level, this profile can then be cloned and updated with configuration elements that apply to the customer or site.

UCPrep Profile tab

The table describes settings on the UCPrep Profile tab:

Field	Description
UC Prep Profile Name	Friendly name for the UCPrep profile. This is the name populated into the push tooling above.
UC Prep Profile Notes	Fill out helpful information describing the UCPrep Profile. This is the field populated to the push tooling above.

CUCM Date Time Groups tab

Configuration templates can be customized and added so that these become available in the Date/Time Group Configuration Template drop-down list, for example to templates to customize the date format and listed on the UCPrep Configuration Templates page.

The UCPrep Friendly Timezones page can be used to manage the list available in the timezones drop-downs, for example to shorten the list to only include the timezones that are used in the Data/Time groups.

The table describes settings on the CUCM Date Time Groups tab:

Field	Description
Date/Time Group Configuration Template	Configuration template used to configure the specific settings to a Data-Time Group in Call Manager. Options available in the Configuration template are date format, separator, Time format, and so on. Note: the name of the date time group is automatically configured based on the chosen timezone entry. A timezone drop-down entry of America/New_York will create a date time group named America-New_York.
Date/Time Group Add	Timezones are chosen and added via drop-down. Any number of timezones may be chosen.

CUCM Groups tab

The Members drop-down works once a UCPrep profile has been cloned to the level of the UC applications.

The order in which the members are added indicate primary and secondary members of the group.

The table describes settings on the CUCM Groups tab:

Name	Description
Standard CUCM Group	Entry mechanism to allow for configuration of an unlimited number of Call Manager Groups.
Call Manager Group Name	Free text entry box for Call Manager Group Name.
Members (In Order)	Add Call Manager nodes via drop-down by adding member entry boxes. The Call Manager nodes are added to the Call Manager Groups in the order presented in the input box.

CUCM Host Adjustment tab

Multiple nodes of the cluster at the hierarchy can be modified.

Considerations for Host Adjustment are:

• Since the CUCM Host Adjustment modifies existing data in Call Manager, the data must be re-set or removed if a UCPrep Profile must be applied more than once.

• The CUCM Host adjustment occurs after the Call Manager Group configuration because the Call Manager will internally adjust the node names within a Call Manager Group when the node is renamed.

• If a node name is adjusted and a UCPrep profile is run a second or more times, the data on the CUCM Groups tab must be updated from the drop-downs to be the current CUCM node name.

The table describes CUCM Host Adjustment tab settings:

Name	Description
Call Manager Hostname	Entry area for multiple Call Manager Hostname adjustments.
Current ID	Drop-down providing the current Call Manager node names in the cluster.
New Host Identifier	Free text area to enter the new name as per business standards.

CUCM Audio Codec Preferences tab

The Audio Codec Preferences List lends itself to be driven by a configuration template rather than a GUI input of a list of codecs.

The lists are written to Call Manager by selecting any number of configuration templates that have been set up to list out groups of codecs. Typically, a configuration template from the menu UCPrep Configuration Templates list view is cloned and modified to show the required codecs and settings.

Audio Codec Preference List Configuration Template Example:

The table describes the settings on the CUCM Audio Codec Preferences tab:

Field	Description
Audio Codec Preference List	Entry mechanism for any number of Codec lists.
Configuration Template to Apply	Drop-down providing a list of available configuration templates.

CUCM Application Users tab

Application users can initially be set up from the UCPrep Application User page, to be available from the Application Users drop-down on the input form of this tab.

New application users can also be added on the form by entering the user name directly into the Application Users input.

Application user roles are automatically added from the selected Group Permissions.

The table describes the settings on the CUCM Application Users tab:

Field Name	Description
Application Users	Mechanism for adding an unlimited number if application users to a Call Manager.
User ID	The Application User ID. This drop-down is driven from the UCPrep Application User List in the menu. The idea behind this is to cut down on AppUser misspelling.
Password	Password for the application user
Repeat Password	Confirmation of entered password.
Controlled Devices	Drop-down that provides a list of configured devices on Call Manager should an association be necessary.
CTI Controlled Device Profiles	Drop-down that provides a list of configured device profiles on Call Manager should an association be necessary.
Group Permissions	Drop-down that provides the ability to build group permissions for the application user. The drop-downs will provide all configured groups from the Call Manager.

CUCM Feature Control Policies tab

Feature control policies are defined by entering policy names and selecting features from the list of checkboxes.

The table describes the settings on the CUCM Feature Control Policies tab:

Field Name	Description
Feature Control Policy	Mechanism to enter an unlimited number of Feature Control Policies
Policy Name	Free text field for entry of Feature Control Policy Name.

CUCM Route Filters tab

The Route Filter lends itself to be driven by a configuration template rather than a GUI input of clauses.

The filters are written to Call Manager by selecting any number of configuration templates from the Route Filter Template to Apply drop-down on the input form.

Typically, a configuration template from the menu UCPrep Configuration Templates list view is cloned and modified to show the required Route Filter settings.

Example of Route Filter Configuration Template:

The table describes the settings on the CUCM Route Filters tab:

Field	Description
Route Filters Route Filter Template to Apply	Mechanism to add an unlimited number of route filters via configuration template. Drop-down to provide a list of available configuration templates.

Unity Authentication Policies tab

The Unity authentication rule lends itself to be driven by a configuration template rather than a GUI input, since settings commonly do not change and the same group of settings are repeated.

Typically, configuration templates from the menu UCPrep Configuration Templates list view are cloned and modified to show the required Voice and Web Authentication Rules.

Example of Authentication Rule Configuration Template:

The table describes the settings on the Unity Authentication Policies tab:

Field	Description
Update Voice Mail Authentication Rules	Check box to enable the update of the Voice Mail Authentication Rule from the UCPrep Profile.
Voice Authentication Rule CFT	Drop-down providing a list of available configuration templates.
Update Web Authentication Rules	Check box to enable the update of the Web Authentication Rule from the UCPrep Profile.

Unity User Templates tab

The list of user templates shown on the input form are those that are most often changed. Own templates can be added as new entries and options selected from the available drop-downs.

Additional required fields can be added by selecting a created Configuration Template containing these from the CUC User Template CFT drop-down.

The table describes the settings on the Unity User Templates tab:

Field Name	Description
