Cisco Unity is an integral part of the Cisco Systems AVVID (Architecture for Voice, Video, and Integrated Data) environment for IP Telephony and related services. It supports both Cisco CallManager and leading legacy telephone systems either independently or simultaneously. Cisco Unity Fundamentals from Cisco Press helps the IT professional master solutions on the full range of Cisco IP-based voice solutions including Cisco CallManager, Cisco IP Contact Center, and Cisco Personal Assistant.
Cisco Unity is designed for large or small enterprises and offers enhanced security, reliability, and serviceability, along with support for Microsoft Windows 2000, Advanced Server SP2, and Microsoft Exchange 2000 Enterprise Server. However, for each system, the design goals are different, leading to different architectures. Cisco Unity Fundamentals addresses the design and administration goals for migration from traditional PBX phones to Cisco IP Phones.
Cisco Unity Fundamentals begins by detailing the engineering aspects of Cisco Unity, then focuses on the administration of Cisco Unity, and concludes with coverage of troubleshooting techniques.
