Thanks Brian. 

Right now, it's going to be for on-campus users only. We are re-evaluating our 
NAC solution, so for now, it's going to be limited to a few hard coded subnets 
that we will be "trusting" (eeeeeeek). I'm hoping that our NAC solution will 
have some sort of way to ensure that only certain groups of users will be 
allowed through, but that's for another day. 


What do you mean by Collab Edge architecture though? Do you mean ExpressWay 
C/E? If so, yes, we're going to be looking at that as well as part of the 
phased approach. Although without a split DNS deployment, we might have some 
issues. :( 


I'm hoping that through some ingenious configuration, we might actually be able 
to use the EW on-campus for some devices that are can't negotiate voice VLANs 
properly. 


Do you see IPCommunicator living a long life? Or has it seen the last of days?

No multi-line support or extension mobility on Jabber which means most people 
can't use it for UCCX yet. You can use it as long as you don't need EM or 
multiple lines for your agents. 


Are you opening it up for people connecting remotely without VPN? If so, you'll 
want to use a Collab Edge architecture as it's not safe to open up CUCM/IM&P 
directly. 


If it's just for internal users, you should be good to go with the ACLs. 


You shouldn't need to worry about any multicast for Jabber/CIPC outside of MMOH 
which you mentioned.

I'm about to set up firewall security so Jabber clients (and IP Communicator) 
can access the telephony servers (CUCM, Connection, IM&P, UCCx, etc) and I was 
hoping to get some ideas as to what others have done and if I'm missing 
anything obvious here. I'm using the CUCM/IM&P port list as well as the Jabber 
deployment guide to get the Jabber port list. For the firewall, we are using an 
ASA appliance pair, v 9.1(3). 


Typically we build the ACL statements with the source address object group 
coupled with destination address object group and the destination port object 
group. I don't think there is a need to build the ACL with a source port object 
group at this time. 


I've also been told that we might have some multicast limitations with the 
firewall, basically , multicast traffic can't pass through our firewall. 


Any comments would be helpful. But I'm wondering, specifically: 


    * Are people deploying IP Communicator still? For all the benefits of 
Jabber, I don't see it as a replacement for a softphone with access to all the 
buttons and apps that are available, like services, directories, 
conference/join, etc. Does UCCx work with Jabber for example? 
    * What have others done for firewall ACL building? Is there a firewall 
feature set I'm not aware of that will simplify my life? 
    * Are there any multicast requirements when deploying Jabber and 
IPCommunicator? Aside from MoH? 


Thanks in advance for any help! 


Lelio
