1. Introduction to cm-locale-ar_LB-14.0.1.1001-1.cop.sha512

This cryptographic-validated localization package (​​v14.0.1.1001-1​​) provides native Arabic (ar_LB) language support for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) deployments, addressing regulatory requirements for enterprises operating in Lebanon and Middle Eastern regions. Released on ​​February 18, 2025​​, it implements right-to-left (RTL) text formatting for administrative consoles, emergency service prompts, and voicemail templates compliant with Lebanon’s Telecommunications Regulatory Authority (TRA) Directive 2024/IT-015 on multilingual telecom compliance.

Designed for CUCM 14.0(1)SU3 through 14.0(4)SU1 clusters, the package employs SHA-512 hashing to ensure file integrity during distribution, aligning with Cisco’s Cryptographic Assurance Program (CAP) standards.
