In order to integrate the Multipoint Switch under Cisco Unified Communications Manager, please refer to the 
“Configuring Cisco Unified Communications Manager for Cisco TelePresence Management Suite” section 

under Administrator Guide for Cisco Unified Communications Manager at 

.

If the passwords are expired on the Cisco TelePresence Server devices, it will not allow SSH access, and 

you will have problems trying to get information using the Cisco Prime Collaboration CLI. Configure the 

Cisco Unified Communications Manager device profile to help ensure that passwords never expire, 

especially for secure deployments. 

● 

If you are using the same device profiles, make sure the correct SNMP string is defined in the original one. 

Cisco TelePresence Server devices will use this string when they boot up. 

Cisco Prime Collaboration uses syslogs from Cisco Unified Communications Manager to monitor the status of the 

phones and other endpoints such as gateways. It will monitor whether the phones or gateways are registered or 

unregistered based on the syslogs it gets from Cisco Unified Communications Manager on an ongoing basis. 

Hence you need to set up Cisco Unified Communications Manager to send syslogs to the Cisco Prime 

Collaboration server. 

To configure syslog receiver on Cisco Unified Communications Manager: 

Step 1.   In Cisco Unified Communications Manager, select Cisco Unified CM Administration from the Navigation 

drop-down menu in the top-right corner of the device's home screen. 

Step 2.   Select System > Enterprise Parameters. 

Step 3.   Go to the Cisco Syslog Agent section and update the following required fields: 

● 

Remote Syslog Server Name with the IP address of Cisco Prime Collaboration server 

● 

Select Informational from the drop-down menu for Syslog Severity For Remote Syslog Messages 

Step 4.   Select Cisco Unified Serviceability from the Navigation drop-down menu in the top-right corner of the 

device's home screen. 

Step 5.   Select Alarm > Alarm Configuration. 

Step 6.   Select the correct alarm configuration elements (Server, Service Group, and Service) for your particular 

machine and then click Go. Enter the Cisco Prime Collaboration server IP address or DNS name in the 
server textbox. Select the service group and service options based on the information in Figure 19.
