Next, let’s take a quick look at how to do your certificates properly so we can avoid those nasty error messages from appearing on end users desktops which I am sure we all want to avoid.You have three options of dealing with Cert’s as per the great cisco document here: Finally, Jabber integration amongst organisations via XMPP allowing you to federate with other organisations, this is also possible with SIP.Instant Message logging for compliance purposes, so you can log instant messaging just like you would email which could be important for your organisation.A universal directory service, which we will go into in more detail but essentially means there’s no need to configure a complicated LDAP setup in order to get good directory support: Directory information can be pulled from outlook and other locations as well as CUCM itself.Jabber SDK, which allows you to integrate Jabber into your webpages, think of things like live chats on your website that could go straight to your corporate IM platform (perhaps to people who run your cold-call campaigns etc.).Collaboration edge is a far superior method and we will be covering it later in this 5 part series. This is an absolute boon: Although Anyconnect for PC’s and mobile devices tried doing some fancy tricks like seeing what local domain name you had and launching VPN’s based on this, it would often not work that well. Collaboration Edge, which is basically a repurposed VCS Express that allows external users of jabber to use jabber without having to VPN in first.

Install both the Cisco Jabber app with the Cisco Webex Meetings app to have access to both Cisco Calling and Meetings from Microsoft Teams.I am pleased to finally be able to say I would be happy to recommend and deploy Cisco Jabber for customers ahead of Microsoft Lync.I may bleed Cisco Green/Blue but even I could not defend Cisco Jabber over Microsoft Lync, the list of features were simply too much in Microsoft’s Favour.However with the most recent releases, Cisco have added some major features each of which we will cover in these blog posts. The Jabber Call app in Microsoft Teams will launch voice and video calls using the Cisco Jabber application. In order to use this application you must have the Cisco Jabber application installed on your Windows or Apple workstation. The Jabber Call application provides access to business-quality voice and video on your desktop using Cisco Jabber powered by the market-leading Cisco® Unified Communications Manager (UCM) call-control solution. Access all the capability of your Cisco Calling platform from Microsoft Teams. Use the Cisco dialpad in Microsoft Teams to dial numbers or call SIP addresses. Easily escalate a chat with a co-worker into a rich Cisco video interaction with the click of a button. Streamline communications and enhance productivity with Cisco Jabber calling integrated into Microsoft Teams.
