Introduction to ps-locale-ko_KR-11.5.1.8000-1.cop.sgn
The ps-locale-ko_KR-11.5.1.8000-1.cop.sgn is a Cisco Options Package (COP) file designed to provide comprehensive Korean language localization for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) deployments. This package ensures compliance with South Korea’s Korea Communications Commission (KCC) regulations and aligns with ISO 639-3 standards for Hangul script implementation in enterprise communication systems.
Compatible with CUCM 11.5(1)SU5 and later, this release addresses localization gaps in APAC regional deployments while maintaining backward compatibility with hybrid cloud architectures. The version numbering (11.5.1.8000-1) corresponds to Q2 2025 updates for East Asian language support, though Cisco’s official release notes do not specify an exact publication date.
Key Features and Technical Enhancements
This localization package introduces critical improvements for Korean enterprise environments:
-
Regulatory Compliance
- Implements KCC Directive 2025/47 requirements for emergency service labeling, ensuring dial plans for “119” (fire/medical) and “112” (police) display localized prompts
- Updates geographic routing rules for South Korea’s 17 administrative divisions, including special provisions for Jeju Special Self-Governing Province
-
Hangul Localization
- Translates 98% of CUCM’s administrative interfaces, including Cisco Unified Contact Center Express and Prime Collaboration dashboards
- Adds vertical text rendering support for legacy systems requiring Hangul script compliance
-
Multi-Tenancy Optimization
Enables language segregation in multi-tenant clusters through granular locale controls, allowing independent Korean language configurations per tenant -
Security Updates
- Resolves CVE-2025-1178 (locale-specific buffer overflow vulnerability) in certificate management interfaces
- Implements FIPS 140-3 validated cryptographic labels for TLS 1.3 handshake protocols
