Cisco Unified Communication infrastructure

Hi, community!

For example we have Cisco Unified Communication Sandbox (as on a picture)  This is from Cisco Sandbox. I have question: Is it possible to discover all devices in this schema using CUCM publisher node and API? So result should be: devices IP, and devices description. Thanks!CUCM infrastructure

Andrii,

There is no mechanism in the Cisco UC portfolio to 'discover' devices and other applications.  Any application that will be integrated in the UC portfolio will have to be peered with the other products.  By "peered", I mean that there will need to be configuration on both sides for communication to be established.  The reason for this is security.  If a UCM discovered a rogue CUC or AD, then that would compromise the overall solution.  So from a UCM perspective, you must define the IP/name of the peer applications or you must define an application user to be used by the peer application.  This ensures that only trusted applications will be communicating with UCM and vice versa. 

Thanks,

Hi

Curious to know if there is a  sample of the sandbox config (sharable) for the attached topology ? If yes can we have a link/copy of these . If not any suggestions where to find these. The AD/DC config will be great .

Thank you.

Yogan,

If the components in the above diagram are spun up as part of the Sandbox, then I believe that most of them have been configured for the deployment.  Meaning that no discovery is needed because all the pre-defined VM's are already configured to work together.   I'm not sure what information is available for the AD/DC component, but you should have access to the Windows system running AD/DC and can look at the configuration directly.

Thanks,
