1. Introduction to cm-locale-ar_TN-15.0.1.2000-1.cop.sha512
This SHA512-authenticated software package provides Tunisian Arabic (ar_TN) localization for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) 15.0.1 and associated collaboration systems. Designed for enterprises operating in North Africa, it translates administrative interfaces, IP phone displays, and system alerts to comply with regional language accessibility standards while maintaining alignment with Cisco’s security architecture.
The “.cop” extension confirms its certification as an official Cisco Options Package, validated through SHA512 cryptographic checks per FIPS 180-4 standards. Compatible devices include Cisco 8800/9800 Series IP Phones and CUCM clusters running 15.0.1 base installations. This release addresses localization gaps identified in earlier CUCM 14.x versions, specifically optimizing Maghreb Arabic dialects and regional numbering formats.
