Introduction to ps-locale-no_NO-12.5.1.6000-1.cop.sgn
The ps-locale-no_NO-12.5.1.6000-1.cop.sgn is a Cisco Options Package (COP) designed to implement native Norwegian (Bokmål) language support in Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) 12.5 environments. This localization package addresses compliance requirements under Norway’s Electronic Communications Act § 4-3 for telecom systems operating in Nordic regions, ensuring regional linguistic standards are met across:
- Administrative web interfaces
- Call Detail Records (CDRs) formatting
- Voicemail system prompts
- End-user collaboration portals
Developed under Cisco’s Global Language Compliance Program, this update aligns with NS-EN 301 549:2025 standards for Scandinavian language telecommunications interfaces.

- Phone number validation with +47 country code
- Localized emergency service labels (“Nødnummer 113” with geolocation tagging)
2. Multi-Layer Localization Architecture
- Layer 1: OS-level locale synchronization for SSH/CLI sessions
- Layer 2: XML application translations in Cisco Unified Reporting
- Layer 3: JTAPI integration with Norwegian ERP systems like Visma Business
3. Cryptographic Validation
- Digitally signed using Cisco’s Secure Boot Framework v3.3
- Compatible with FIPS 140-3 validated clusters
