The CUCM bridge into UCCE
Learn it in 5 minutes
- Agents are CUCM endpoints.
- The peripheral gateway watches those endpoints.
- A label must be a number CUCM can route.
- CTI controls the desktop. The SIP call is still a call.
- Device targets and extensions drift apart when people rename lines.
Visual
What is going on
The bridge fails in ordinary ways: the script returns a label that is not a directory number, the phone is in a partition the CTI route point cannot reach, or the agent is not associated with the application user. None of those are a mystery queue.
Worked example
ICM returns label 4501. CUCM has 4501 in a partition the trunk CSS cannot see. The call dies after a successful script. Fix the CSS or the label, and say which one you changed.
Quiz
1. A successful ICM script guarantees CUCM can ring the phone.
False.
Ecosystem
Sister pieces sit on the ecosystem page: the glossary, the mind map, the integration map, and the sibling labs.
- Label — The destination the script returns.
- Peripheral gateway — The process that represents CUCM devices to ICM.
Config. Match the label to a route pattern or directory number and name the CSS.
Troubleshooting. Look at the CUCM dial plan trace for that label, not only the script monitor.
Bridge. This is the on-premises bridge. A Webex Contact Center flow is a different product.
