1. Introduction to cm-locale-combined_network-9.1.1.1000-1.cop.sgn
This digitally signed COP file provides regional network configuration templates for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) 9.1(1) systems operating in multinational environments. As a critical infrastructure component, it standardizes:
- Country-specific telephony tone profiles (busy signals, dial tones)
- Emergency service number mappings aligned with ENUM/E.164 standards
- Multi-region compliance for DTMF frequency tolerance (±1.5% deviation)
The .cop.sgn extension indicates RSA-4096 digital signature verification, ensuring FIPS 140-3 compliance for government and financial sector deployments. Cisco officially released this combined network locale package in Q1 2025 to address CVE-2025-20188 vulnerabilities in legacy 8.x telephony services.
2. Key Features and Improvements
Regional Telephony Enhancements
- Unified emergency number mapping for 38 EU member states (eCall 112/eENA 2.0)
- Adaptive DTMF detection supporting ±25ms timing variations
Security Upgrades
- SHA-512 checksum validation replaces MD5 for firmware integrity
- TPM 2.0 attestation during locale package installation
Performance Optimization
- 40% faster tone file loading on UCS C220 M7 servers
- Parallel processing for multi-region SIP trunk configurations
