1. Introduction to ps-locale-ar_IQ-11.5.1.10000-1.cop.sgn
This Cisco OS Package (COP) delivers specialized Iraqi Arabic (ar_IQ) localization for Cisco Meeting Server (CMS) 11.5.1 deployments, addressing Mesopotamian dialect variations and Middle Eastern regulatory mandates. Designed to comply with Iraq’s CMC 2024-09 telecommunications standards, it localizes 2,150+ UI elements across CMS administrative portals, real-time collaboration tools, and diagnostic consoles with region-specific Hijri calendar integration.
The package supports hybrid deployments on CMS 5500 series hardware appliances and virtualized clusters running Cisco UCS C480 M7 servers with VMware ESXi 8.0U4+. It introduces bidirectional text rendering optimized for Arabic script nuances and maintains backward compatibility with CMS 11.4.x environments through adaptive locale synchronization.
