1. Introduction to cm-locale-es_CO-11.5.1.8100-1.cop.sgn Software

This digitally signed COP (Cisco OS Package) file provides Spanish (Colombia) language localization for Cisco Catalyst 9400/9500 switches and ISR 1100 routers running IOS-XE 18.6+. Released in Q1 2025, the cm-locale-es_CO-11.5.1.8100-1.cop.sgn addresses Latin American enterprise compliance through ICONTEC NTC 5856:2024-certified translation standards.

The package implements ISO/IEC 8859-1 (Latin-1) character encoding with extended Colombian Spanish diacritics support for CLI/Syslog interfaces. Backward compatibility extends to IOS-XE 16.12.7+ deployments while resolving 5 locale-specific CVEs, including critical vulnerabilities in HTTP/HTTPS content rendering.
