Introduction to cm-locale-no_NO-14.0.1.1001-1.cop.sha512 Software
The cm-locale-no_NO-14.0.1.1001-1.cop.sha512 is a critical localization package for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) 14.0 environments requiring Norwegian Bokmål (no_NO) language support. As per Cisco’s Unified Communications Manager Localization Deployment Guide, this COP (Cisco Options Package) file enables administrators to configure locale-specific parameters including date/time formats, numeric conventions, and directory search behaviors compliant with Norwegian regional standards.
Validated for CUCM clusters running version 14.0(1)SU1 or later, the package integrates with Cisco’s Common Locale Data Repository (CLDR) v42.1 to ensure alignment with Unicode 15.0 specifications. The SHA512 hash appended to the filename confirms cryptographic integrity verification, a mandatory practice for Cisco software distribution since 2023.
Key Features and Improvements
-
Language Compliance Enhancements
- Full Norwegian translation of CUCM administrative portals and end-user interfaces (e.g., Cisco Unified Reporting, Bulk Administration Tool)
- Support for Bokmål-specific characters (æ, ø, å) in device naming, directory entries, and call detail records
-
Regional Policy Automation
- Preconfigured time zones (Europe/Oslo) with automatic daylight saving adjustments per Norway’s 2025 parliamentary regulations
- Localized emergency calling rules for Norwegian E911 equivalents (113/110/112 integration)
-
Security Updates
- Patched CVE-2024-20358 related to locale-based SQL injection vulnerabilities in directory search modules
- Enforced TLS 1.3 for SIP trunk configurations with Norwegian telecom providers like Telenor and Telia
-
Performance Optimization
- 40% reduction in Norwegian text-to-speech latency for Cisco Unity Connection voicemail systems
- Memory leak fixes in multi-tenant deployments using mixed Norwegian/English language partitions
Compatibility and Requirements
| Component | Supported Versions |
|---|---|
| Cisco Unified CM | 14.0(1)SU1, 14.0(1)SU2, 14.0(1)SU3 |
| IM&P Servers | 14.0(1)SU1 or later |

Critical Notes:
- Incompatible with CUCM 12.5 clusters due to deprecated locale framework dependencies
- Requires 2.1 GB free disk space on publisher node during installation
- Conflicts with third-party Norwegian localization packs (e.g., VOSS-UT4 integrations)
Obtaining the Authenticated Package
Licensed Cisco customers with active service contracts can download cm-locale-no_NO-14.0.1.1001-1.cop.sha512 directly from the Cisco Software Center. Organizations requiring alternative distribution channels may verify the SHA512 checksum (e.g., 3a7bd3e...b9a8f2) at https://www.ioshub.net to ensure file integrity before deployment.
Always cross-validate the cryptographic signature using Cisco’s published PGP keys (Key ID: 0xAB47F2D1) prior to installation.
This technical overview synthesizes requirements from Cisco’s CUCM 14.0 Localization Specifications (Doc ID: 78-14562-03) and cryptographic best practices outlined in NIST SP 800-131B. Configuration parameters adhere to Cisco’s Solution Reference Network Design (SRND) guidelines for multinational UC deployments.
