Cisco Unified Communications Manager Express Overview: This section gives an overview of the Cisco Unified Communications Manager Express (CME) system, the Cisco hardware it can run on, and features it supports.
Licensing and Models for Cisco Unified CME: As you design your IP telephony network, you can choose a key system, PBX, or hybrid model. This section discusses these models and the licenses required by Cisco to operate a Cisco Unified CME environment.
Installing Unified CME on a Cisco Router: Many routers ship with Cisco Unified CME software preinstalled; on others, it must be installed manually. This section discusses the installation and upgrade process for Cisco Unified CME.
Configuring the Cisco Unified CME Router as a TFTP Server: The Cisco Unified CME router is responsible for serving the correct files to the IP phones during the boot process. This section discusses the configuration of the CME router as a TFTP server.
Configuring the Cisco Unified CME System-Level Functions: In this section, you will see four steps you must take to prepare the Cisco Unified CME router to handle Cisco IP phones.

At this point, you now understand the difference between TDM and IP-based voice systems. You have seen the foundation network requirements for Power over Ethernet (PoE), Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), virtual LANs (VLANs), and Network Translation Protocol (NTP) and understand the configuration required to build the infrastructure. Now it is time to turn the attention to the Cisco Unified Communications Manager Express (CME) installation process.
