Introduction to ps-locale-nl_NL-14.0.1.1000-1.cop.sha512

This SHA512-signed localization package enables native Dutch language support (nl_NL) in Cisco collaboration platforms and enterprise networking devices. Designed for Unified Communications Manager v14.x environments, it implements ISO 639-3 language standards with regional dialect adaptations for Flanders and Netherlands regions.

The 14.0.1.1000 version released in Q3 2024 resolves text rendering inconsistencies in Dutch GUI translations observed in previous releases. It maintains compatibility with Cisco IP Phone 8800/8900 series, Webex Room Devices, and Catalyst 9300/9500 switches running IOS XE 17.9.3+.

Secure Package Verification

The .sha512 extension confirms cryptographic validation through:

  1. ​File Integrity Check​

    • Compare generated hash with embedded signature using:
      certutil -hashfile ps-locale-nl_NL-14.0.1.1000-1.cop.sha512 SHA512
  2. ​Trust Chain Validation​

    • Requires Cisco Trust Anchor module (TAmt) v3.2+ for digital certificate verification

Obtaining the Software

Authorized Cisco partners and registered users can request download access through:

  1. ​Cisco Software Central​​ (account validation required)
  2. ​IOSHub Verified Repository​
