​​Introduction to cm-locale-combined_network-12.5.1.7000-1.cop.sha512​​

This Cisco Options Package (COP) delivers comprehensive multilingual support for network infrastructure components in Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) 12.5.x environments. Released in Q1 2025, it integrates SHA-512 cryptographic verification with regional compliance standards across 28 languages, addressing GDPR and CCPA requirements for global enterprises. The package enables centralized management of locale settings for switches, routers, and collaboration endpoints within a unified network architecture.

The software combines locale configurations for network devices with collaboration systems, ensuring consistent time/date formats, numeric conventions, and security protocols across Cisco Catalyst 9000 series switches, ASR 1000 routers, and Webex Room Kits. It supports hybrid deployments with VMware ESXi 7.0 U3+ virtualization and physical UCS C480 M5 servers, requiring minimum 24GB RAM allocation per node.
