Integration Requirements in Cisco



Cisco WebEx Integration with Cisco Unified MeetingPlace

The Cisco WebEx integration requires the following:

  • Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Application Server
  • (Optional) Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Web Server
  • (Optional) Cisco WebEx Node for MCS
  • MeetingPlace Application Server Webex TSP only support SOCKS Web Proxy servers (Not HTTP Proxy) so please allow direct firewall access to Webex Site IPs directly. Often there are delay issues when proxy servers are used and the integration to Webex must be able to be maintained continuously via internet without delays, otherwise it will affect user response times.
  • MeetingPlace Webex Node for MCS does not support any HTTP or SOCKS proxy servers. Please allow direct accesss to Webex Site IPs directly through Firewall settings.
  • Webex Client interface supports any HTTP or SOCKS proxy server based on browser settings.
  • Cisco Webex Node for MCS is currently not supported with the Webex Global Site Backup system. If you want a fully redundant option with GSB, submit a new Webex Node for MCS request to Webex Provisioning to deploy a redundant Node which is ‘homed’ to the GSB data center instead of the primary. You must deploy an MCS server with the Webex Node for MCS software for this function only in your network.
  • A Cisco WebEx integration supports a maximum of 1000 Webex sessions on either multiple Webex Node for MCS's or connected to Webex Collaboration Cloud per system in multiple meetings.
  • A single Meeting Center meeting with MeetingPlace Audio supports a maximum of audio and web 125 attendees.
  • A Cisco Webex Scheduling model also supports Webex Event Center which supports a maximum of 500 MeetingPlace Audio attendees in a single meeting. However, Event Center can also provide "Audio Broadcast function which only the "Speakers" for a large conference would connect to the MEetingPlace Audio system and all attendees would receive the entire Web sharing, video and MP Audio all bridged into a single web HTTPS stream via end user's PC which reduces the need for everyone to dial into the MeetingPlace Audio system for meetings.


Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Application Server

Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Web Server

This is an optional component. A Web Server is only required if your deployment requires users to schedule from Cisco Unified MeetingPlace rather than from Cisco WebEx.


If your deployment requires a Web Server, the Cisco WebEx integration requires the following:

  • At least one internal Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Web Server.
  • (Optional) One external Web Server.


See the Web Server Requirements for hardware and software requirements.

Cisco WebEx Node for MCS

This is an optional component. If your deployment requires a Cisco WebEx Node for MCS, see the Cisco WebEx Node for MCS Requirements.

Software
  • Cisco WebEx MeetingCenter or Cisco WebEx MeetingCenter Pro
  • Cisco Webex Enterprise Edition that supports Meeting Center, Event Center and Training Center (Support Center is also available but does not require MeetingPlace Audio unless Support personnel escalate to a full Meeting Center meeting with multiple attendees.)
  • WebEx Business Suite 27 (WBS27 SP14 or later) on the Cisco WebEx site.


Webex Scheduling Option with Mobile Device Integrations
  • Cisco WebEx supports iPhone, Blackberry mobile devices ability to easily join a Webex meeting with automatic callback to a mobile device. When integrating to MeetingPlace Audio with Webex, the iPhone or Blackberry Webex client must be programmed without any Plus "+" dialing in the phone number field. Please enter the mobile phone number without a "+".
