Introduction to cm-locale-no_NO-12.5.1.2000-1.cop.sgn
This official Cisco locale package provides complete Norwegian (no_NO) language support for Unified Communications Manager 12.5(1) clusters, addressing localization requirements for enterprise communications systems in Norway. Designed per Cisco’s internationalization framework, it delivers translated interface elements across CUCM administration portals, IP phone displays, and voicemail systems.
The software bundle contains 2,000+ localized strings and 45 minutes of updated Bokmål voice prompts, certified for legal compliance with Norway’s Data Protection Authority (Datatilsynet) regulations. Compatible with CUCM 12.5(1) SU1 through SU3 deployments, it requires sequential installation across all cluster nodes with mandatory post-deployment reboots.
