Configuring TMS Provisioning Extension services
Cisco TMSPE services are hosted on Cisco TMS. They provide the user, device and phone book data that is used by
the VCS's
the VCS's
to service provisioning requests from endpoint devices. They also provide the VCS with
the FindMe account configuration data that it uses to provide FindMe services.
The TMS Provisioning Extension services page (System > TMS Provisioning Extension services) is used to
configure how the VCS connects to the Cisco TMSPE services. We recommend that you use Cisco TMS to make any
changes to the Cisco TMSPE services' configuration settings. Any changes made to the settings via this page will not
be applied within Cisco TMS.
