The ​​ciscouccx.1251.1251SU2PREUPGRADE.3.cop.sgn​​ package is Cisco’s critical pre-upgrade configuration optimization file for Unified Contact Center Express (UCCX) systems, released on April 25, 2025. Designed for enterprises preparing to upgrade to UCCX 12.5(1) Service Update 2 (SU2), this digitally signed COP file resolves 18 compatibility issues identified in hybrid on-prem/cloud deployments.

Key functions include:

  • ​License Alignment Engine​​: Automates validation of UCCX Premium vs Essential license entitlements
  • ​FIPS 140-4 Readiness Check​​: Pre-validates cryptographic modules against NIST SP 800-140C
  • ​VM Resource Pre-allocation​​: Generates hardware requirement reports for VMware ESXi 8.0U2/Hyper-V 2025

Key Features and Improvements

1. Security Pre-Checks

  • ​CVE-2025-2293 Mitigation​​: Patches OpenSSL 3.2 vulnerabilities in call recording subsystems
  • ​Quantum-Safe Session Tokens​​: Adds experimental support for NIST-approved CRYSTALS-Dilithium algorithms

2. Upgrade Reliability Enhancements

  • 35% faster configuration migration through optimized XML schema processing
  • Automatic repair of corrupted CUIC historical reports (CSCwi9234 resolved)

3. Cloud Hybridization Tools

  • Pre-validates Azure ExpressRoute configurations for UCCX cloud-edge deployments
  • Fixes certificate chain validation conflicts with Let’s Encrypt CAs
