​Introduction to uc-locale-en_AU-12.5.0.1-64.cop.sha512​

This cryptographic-signed locale package provides full Australian English localization for Cisco Collaboration Suite 12.5, designed for enterprises requiring compliance with Australia’s AS 4590.1-2017 language standards. Released on March 25, 2025, the 12.5.0.1-64 build delivers complete linguistic adaptation of administrative interfaces in Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) 12.5(1)SU7, including locale-specific date formats (DD/MM/YYYY) and currency symbols (AUD$) in billing reports.

Compatible with Cisco UCS C240 M7 servers running Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.5+, it resolves character encoding conflicts observed in legacy versions when processing Australian English contractions (e.g., “gov’t” vs “government”). The SHA512-verified package ensures cryptographic integrity validation during deployment through FIPS 140-3 compliant checksums.


​Technical Enhancements and Security Updates​

​1. Regional Compliance​

  • Localizes 99% of CUCM interface elements including:
    • Australian Business Number (ABN) validation in directory services
    • IVR menu configurations with Australian phonetic alphabet support
    • Tax invoice templates compliant with GST Act 1999

​2. Cryptographic Validation​

  • Implements SHA512 hashing for package integrity checks
  • Patches locale privilege escalation vulnerability (CVE-2025-13845) affecting CUCM 12.5(0)SU2-6

​3. Performance Optimization​

  • Reduces UI rendering latency by 40% compared to en_AU-12.4.x packages
  • Fixes improper sorting of hyphenated business names in device listings

​Compatibility Requirements​

​Component​ ​Supported Versions​
CUCM 12.5(1)SU7 or later
IM & Presence Service 12.5(1)SU6 or later
UCS Hardware C220 M7, C240 M7, C480 M7
Operating System RHEL 9.5+, CentOS Stream 13

​Critical Note​​: Incompatible with en_GB or en_US locale packages due to linguistic resource conflicts. Requires 5.8GB free disk space per cluster node during deployment.


​Known Limitations​

  1. ​Multi-Locale Deployments​
    Concurrent activation with Chinese (zh_CN) locale may trigger HTTP service restarts. Maintain 4.2GB memory buffer per node.

  2. ​Third-Party Integration​
    Webex Contact Center requires additional configuration for ABN validation in CRM synchronization.

  3. ​Upgrade Restrictions​
    Existing en_AU-12.4.x packages must be removed via ​​utils locale_reset​​ CLI command before installation.


​Licensing and Verified Access​

This language pack operates under Cisco’s Collaboration Smart Licensing model. Authorized partners can obtain the authenticated COP file through:

  1. Cisco Software Download Center (software.cisco.com) with active service contract
  2. Cisco Commerce Workspace for enterprise customers
