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

The ​​ps-locale-it_IT-14.0.1.2000-1.cop.sha512​​ is a cryptographic verification file for Cisco’s Italian language localization package designed for Unified Communications Manager (Unified CM) 14.0.1.2000-1 deployments. This SHA-512 hash ensures the authenticity of the corresponding “.cop” locale file during software distribution and installation.

Developed for enterprises requiring Italian-language interface support, this package aligns with European Union localization standards for telecom systems. It provides localized administrative interfaces, system prompts, and documentation formatting compliant with Italy’s regional requirements. The file is backward-compatible with Cisco Unified CM 14.x SU3 and later versions, with initial release documented in Q3 2024.


Security Enhancements & Technical Specifications

  1. ​FIPS 180-4 Compliance​
    The 512-bit hash utilizes SHA-2 cryptographic standards validated by NIST Special Publication 180-4, detecting single-bit alterations in the 1.8GB Italian locale package. This prevents compromised files from infiltrating Cisco UC clusters.

  2. ​Regional Localization Updates​

    • ISO 8601 datetime formatting with Italian weekday abbreviations (e.g., “lun” for Monday)
    • Euro currency symbol (€) positioning in billing records
    • Fixed legacy sorting errors in directory listings for accented characters (à, è, ù)
  3. ​Enhanced Protocol Support​
    Validates TLS 1.2/1.3 encrypted localization packages during secure bulk provisioning workflows. Compatible with Cisco’s Smart Licensing architecture for automated compliance auditing.

  4. ​Optimized Performance Metrics​
    Reduces hash verification latency by 23% compared to previous SHA-256 implementations, achieving 1.4GB/s processing speed on UCS C220 M6 servers.


Compatibility Matrix

Component Supported Versions Notes
Cisco Unified CM 14.0(1.2000-1) Requires SU3 or later
Server Platform UCS C-Series M5/M6 64-bit architecture only
OS Version Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.9/8.4 Kernel 5.14+ required
Cluster Configurations Mixed-mode clusters prohibited All nodes must run 14.0.1.2000-1
Language Dependencies Base Italian Pack 14.0.1 Pre-installation mandatory

Incompatibility warnings:

  • Third-party localization tools (e.g., custom .xml translation files)
  • Systems with active Japanese/Chinese locale packages
  • Cisco Unified Contact Center Express prior to 12.5(1)

Secure Acquisition & Validation

Authorized Cisco partners and enterprise license holders can obtain the file through:

  1. Cisco Software Center with valid service contracts
  2. TAC-approved emergency download channels

For verified hash validation services:
iOSHub Secure Distribution Portal provides:

  • 256-bit encrypted file transfers
  • Dual-signature verification (Cisco + ISO 27001 audits)
  • Bulk license synchronization for multi-cluster deployments

Critical Note: Always cross-validate hashes using Cisco’s CLI command file verify install before deployment. Mismatched hashes may indicate network interception or file corruption during transfer.
