Introduction to cm-locale-zh_HK-12.5.1.6000-1.cop.sgn
The cm-locale-zh_HK-12.5.1.6000-1.cop.sgn is an official Cisco localization package designed to enable Hong Kong Traditional Chinese (zh_HK) language support for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) deployments running version 12.5(1)SU6. This software adapts administrative interfaces, system logs, and user-centric elements such as date formats (e.g., “yyyy年mm月dd日”), numeric conventions (e.g., comma as thousand separator), and traditional Chinese character encoding (Big5/UTF-8) to align with Hong Kong’s regional standards.
Developed under Cisco’s Global Localization Initiative, this package ensures compliance with Hong Kong’s language accessibility regulations while maintaining CUCM’s native security framework. It is critical for enterprises operating in Hong Kong or managing multinational UC clusters requiring Cantonese-compatible administrative workflows.
Key Features and Improvements
The cm-locale-zh_HK-12.5.1.6000-1.cop.sgn delivers the following enhancements:
-
Complete Hong Kong Traditional Chinese Localization
- Full translation of CUCM administrative portals, including real-time monitoring tools, audit logs, and error messages (e.g., “配置錯誤” for configuration errors).
- Support for LC_COLLATE rules to ensure proper sorting of traditional Chinese characters (e.g.,按筆畫排序).
-
Regional Format Compliance
- LC_TIME adjustments for localized date displays (e.g., “2025年5月13日 星期五”) and 12/24-hour time formatting.
- LC_NUMERIC standardization for numeric representations, including comma-based thousand separators (e.g., “1,234.56” displayed as “1,234.56” with HK-specific conventions).
-
Backward Compatibility
- Validated for CUCM 12.5(1)SU6 clusters without requiring firmware upgrades.
- Coexists with other locale packages (e.g., en_US, zh_CN) when configured via Cisco’s Locale Compatibility Matrix.
-
Security Integrity
- Preserves CUCM’s role-based access control (RBAC) and AES-256 encryption standards in localized interfaces.
