To get UnifiedFX to talk with CME you will need to add XML API (eXtensible Markup Language Application Programming Interface) support into CME . An XML API provides an Interface to the CME that allows an external Network Management system (NMS) to configure and monitor CME operations
Step 1: Configure XML API in CME
ip http server -enables web service on cme router
ixi transport http -specifies XML transport method
response size 64 -Size of fragment in the response buffer, in kilobytes
request outstanding 1 – Sets the maximum number of outstanding requests allowed for the transport type.
no shutdown – enables HTTP Transport
ixi application cme -Cisco IOS XML infrastructure parameters for the Cisco Unified CME application
no shutdown – Enables XML communication with the application.
