Unified Communications Virtualization Downloads (including OVA/OVF Templates)


Supported Virtual Machine OVA Templates

A virtual machine template defines the configuration of the virtual machine's virtual hardware. Open Virtualization Format (OVF) is an open standard for describing a virtual machine template, and Open Virtualization Archive (OVA) is an open standard to package and distribute these templates. Files in OVA format have an extension of ".ova".
Cisco Unified Communications applications must use one of the supported virtual machine templates in the table below. For most applications, a preconfigured OVA file is provided by Cisco and must be used. Otherwise the customer must manually build OVA files that meet the indicated requirements.
Application co-residency is dependent on which mix of OVA files will be deployed on the same server, as well as the server's compute/storage/network hardware configuration.
When a static MAC address is required, choose a complex address to prevent accidental licensing overlap between different application instances in different VMs. An example of a complex MAC address is 00:50:56:01:3B:9F. A less complex MAC address is 00:50:56:11:11:11 (because of the "all-ones") and is more likely to conflict with other VMs.
