Direct Versus Indirect Provisioning 

Cisco Prime Collaboration Provisioning does not always communicate directly with devices to set configurations. 

Endpoints, for example, get their provisioned settings from Cisco Unified Communications Manager, which is 

directly provisioned by Cisco Prime Collaboration Provisioning. The following sections outline how devices are 

provisioned. 

● 

Cisco Unified Communications Manager and Cisco Unity devices: Cisco Unified Communications Manager 

has API interfaces referred to as AXL interfaces. Cisco Prime Collaboration Provisioning talks directly to 

Cisco Unified Communications Manager through AXL and connects to Cisco Unity SQL server using Java 

Database Connectivity (JDBC). 

● 

Cisco Unified Communications Communications Manager Express: Cisco Unified Communications 

Manager Express is a Cisco IOS Software application that runs on Cisco routers and provides telephony 

services. Because Communications Manager Express is a Cisco IOS Software application, Cisco Prime 

Collaboration Provisioning communicates with the router using the Cisco IOS Software CLI. 

● 

Cisco Unity Express: Cisco Unity Express is a software application that runs on a service module installed 

either in a Cisco modular router or in integrated hardware in a Cisco modular router. Part of the Cisco Unity 

Express configuration is done through the Cisco IOS Software interface for the router and part through the 

service-module command interface. 

● 

Phones: Cisco Prime Collaboration Provisioning does not communicate directly with the phones, but it 

configures Cisco Unified Communications Manager with phone settings. The phones get their 

configurations from Cisco Unified Communications Manager. 

● 

Microsoft Exchange: Cisco Prime Collaboration Provisioning does not communicate directly with Exchange, 

but Microsoft Exchange gets users added indirectly during the provisioning of a voicemail account to a 

Cisco Unity user.
