1. Introduction to UCCX_300_agents_v2.0_vmv7.ova
This 18.7GB OVA template enables rapid deployment of Cisco Unified Contact Center Express (UCCX) environments supporting 300 concurrent agents, released on 12-March-2025 as part of UCCX 12.5(1) SU2 updates. Designed for mid-sized contact centers, it integrates FIPS 140-3 compliant encryption and pre-configures optimized resource allocation for voice/video/channel blending workflows.
Compatible with Cisco Unified Communications Manager 14SU1+ environments, this template implements automated certificate management through Cisco Prime Collaboration 12.6.2+ integration. The package resolves critical CVE-2024-12345 vulnerabilities in legacy CTI ports while maintaining backward compatibility with CUIC 12.0(1) reporting systems.
