Cisco uOne Voice Messaging

The Cisco Unified Open Network Exchange (uOne) optional software, available as part of Cisco IP Telephony Solutions, provides voice messaging capability to users when they are unavailable to answer calls. The uOne software uses the Skinny Station protocol to communicate with Cisco CallManager.

Skinny Station is a Cisco-proprietary protocol using low bandwidth messages that communicate between devices and the Cisco CallManager. The messages sent back and forth advise the Cisco CallManager and devices of behaviors such as on-hook, off-hook, and digits.

To connect Cisco uOne to Cisco CallManager, you must add Cisco uOne ports to Cisco CallManager. This chapter describes the procedures required for configuring Cisco uOne ports in Cisco CallManager. For more information about Cisco uOne, refer to the documentation and online help included with it.
