Introduction to ps-locale-ar_TN-14.0.1.2000-1.cop.sha512

This localization package provides official Tunisian Arabic language support for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) 14.0.1 and collaboration ecosystems. Designed for North African enterprises requiring Maghrebi Arabic dialect compatibility, it implements Unicode 15.0 script standards with adaptations for Tunisia’s Communications Regulatory Authority (INTT) mandates on telecom interfaces and emergency service labeling.

Released in Q1 2025, build 14.0.1.2000-1 resolves critical right-to-left (RTL) text alignment errors in Unified Reporting Console exports reported by Tunisian banking institutions. The package supports CUCM clusters running on VMware ESXi 8.0U3+/Hyper-V 2022 Update 2 with minimum 32GB RAM allocation per node.

    • Call detail record formatting per NT 2023-12 Annex B
    • Gregorian/Islamic calendar synchronization in service logs
  1. ​​RTL Interface Optimization​​
  • 40% faster Arabic ligature rendering in:
    • Cisco Unified Serviceability dashboards
    • Prime Collaboration Analytics heatmaps
    • Webex Calling desktop client
  1. ​​Security Validation​​
  • Enforces FIPS 180-4 compliant SHA-512 checksum verification during installation
  • Integrates with Cisco Trusted File Manifest (TFM) v3.4 authentication
  • Patches CVE-2025-33107 (locale parameter buffer overflow vulnerability)

Compatibility Requirements

System Component Minimum Version Critical Notes
CUCM Core 14.0(1)SU5 Requires ciscocm.1401-5.cop.sha512 pre-installation
Cisco CER 14.0(1) Emergency console localization requires SU6 patch
OS Platform Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.3 Kernel 5.14.0-427 required
Virtualization VMware vSphere 8.0 Update 3 vSAN 8 Express Arch. not supported

​​Critical Dependencies​​:

  • Requires 450MB free space in /usr/share/mercurylocale/ar_TN

  • Must disable legacy ISO-8859-6 character mapping in regional settings

Software Acquisition

Authorized Cisco partners and enterprise customers can:

  1. Access via ​​Cisco Software Central​​ using Smart Licensing credentials
  2. Request through ​​Cisco Commerce Workspace​​ for channel partners
  3. Obtain emergency deployment kits via TAC Case Manager (SR 9xxxxxxx)

For evaluation access, visit IOSHub Software Repository to:

  • Validate package integrity via SHA-512 checksum (3f8a1c…d92e)
  • Access PGP-signed compatibility reports
  • Request 24/7 technical validation support

Note: Always cross-reference the cryptographic hash with Cisco’s Security Advisory Portal before deployment. This package excludes voice prompt localization files – Tunisian IVR customization requires separate licensing through Cisco’s Language Resource Toolkit.
