Introduction to UCSInstall_UCOS_ES_6.1.2.1114-1_readme.html
This documentation file provides critical installation guidance for Cisco Unified Computing System (UCS) Enterprise Software 6.1.2(1114-1), specifically designed for hybrid cloud communication infrastructures. Released under Cisco’s Q4 2024 security update cycle, it addresses 23 CVEs identified in previous UCOS versions while maintaining backward compatibility with Cisco 7900 Series IP Phones and Webex Room Kit Pro endpoints.
The HTML-formatted readme contains validated procedures for upgrading UCS Manager from 4.3(5) to 4.5(3a) on Cisco UCS C220 M7 servers, including prerequisite checks for FIPS 140-3 compliance. It serves as the master reference for deploying enterprise VoIP systems supporting 50,000+ concurrent SIP sessions.
