100-890 practice question 7 of 15
Which two features are provided by the Cisco Unified Communications Manager signaling and device control function? (Choose two )
Full set: 60 questionsCisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) serves as the core call control and session management component within the Cisco Collaboration architecture. Its primary signaling and device control function is to process calls by establishing, maintaining, and terminating sessions between endpoints. This includes call setup, where it handles digit analysis, routing, and signaling to connect the call, and call tear-down, where it manages the signaling required to properly end the session and release resources. The actual media (audio/video) stream, however, is typically exchanged directly between the endpoints (peer-to-peer) and does not flow through the CUCM call processing agent.
A. quick dialing: This is a user-facing convenience feature built upon the core call processing logic, not the fundamental signaling function itself.
B. phone book service: This is a directory function. While CUCM integrates with directory services, providing the phone book is not its primary signaling and control task.
E. transmission of audio/video media between endpoints: CUCM negotiates the media path via signaling, but the actual RTP media stream flows directly between endpoints, not through the CUCM server.
