Introduction to ciscouccx.1251.1251SU3PREUPGRADE.4.cop.sgn
The ciscouccx.1251.1251SU3PREUPGRADE.4.cop.sgn is Cisco’s digitally signed pre-upgrade validation package for Unified Contact Center Express (UCCX) systems transitioning to version 12.5(1)SU3. Released on May 10, 2025, this cryptographic hash-verified bundle performs automated system health checks and configuration audits prior to major service updates.
Designed for hybrid contact center deployments, this package validates compatibility with Cisco Unified Communications Manager 14.2+ and Webex Contact Center integrations. It supports both on-premises and cloud-managed UCCX instances running Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.6+ or Cisco Unified OS 14.2.1-SU2+ environments.
