Cisco CIPT1 8.0: Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration

Overview/Description
Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) configuration includes basic settings plus specific settings that depend on the features and services that are used and performing the system administration by configuring initial basic settings is the first important task in your deployment. Another important step of CUCM administration is user management. CUCM includes several features that are related to user accounts, including end-user features and administrative privileges. The user accounts can be managed using CUCM configuration tools or by integrating CUCM with a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) directory. This course describes how basic settings on CUCM are configured to enable the system and prepare CUCM for endpoint deployment. The types of user accounts that are used by CUCM and how they can be managed are also explored.
