The MediaSense Setup Wizard page comes up and helps in integrating the MediaSense with the CUCM. Click the Next button. This image illustrates the MediaSense Setup Wizard page
The next page displays the status of all the Services on the MediaSense server, click the Next button. This image illustrates the status of all the Services of the MediaSense.
Step 2. Configure an Application user on the CUCM Administration page
Create an Application User on the CUCM server and assign all the roles for this user. Add this user in the MediaSense server. This image illustrates the Application User Configuation page of the CUCM server.
Step 3. Mention the created Application User as an AXL user in the wizard and select the CUCM server. This image illustrates the MediaSense AXL Service Provider page.
All the CUCM servers are displayed under the Available Call Control Service Providers field. This image illustrates the MediaSense Call Control Service Provider page.
Move the required servers to the Selected Call Control Service Providers field. This image illustrates the selected Call Control Service Providers.
The Setup Summary is displayed. Click the Done button to complete the setup wizard. This image illustrates the MediaSense Setup Summary page.
Step 4. Choose the CUCM End User in the MediaSense API User Configuration.
Log in to the MediaSense Administration page. This image illustrates the MediaSense Administration page
Under the MediaSense API User Configuration tab move the required End Users under the Available Unified CM Usersfield to the MediaSense API Users field.
