Quick Reference: CLI Commands for CUCM, CUC and IM & Presence


Often times, it's necessary to access a CUCM server via the CLI instead of the web server. If you've not done much of this yet, the command structure may seem a little awkward. It's nothing like IOS and can give many voice and network engineers pause when they first encounter it.


This large post contains a list of all Cisco UC 9.1(1) CLI commands and their syntax in brief format.  This included CUCM CLI commands, CUC CLI commands and IM & Presence CLI commands.  It's no coincidence that this is the version of UC that is tested on the current CCIE Collaboration exams.  However, if you'd like to consult the full Cisco document for your version of UC (or something close), refer to the links below:

Cisco Command Line Interface (CLI) Guides for Unified Communication

Disclaimer

Many of the CLI commands below require that services be reset, will reset the services themselves or require a server reset to be effective.  Some are disruptive and some could be catastrophic.  Please use this list as a quick reference guide, but ALWAYS research and test commands on a non-production system to verify that you get the desired results.  Furthermore, some of the commands listed below will not function on specific UCS hardware or they are specific to CUCM or CUC (and some work on either).

Initiate the CLI

First and foremost, you remotely access the CLI via a secure SSH session to the CUCM. If you do not have remote access to the CUCM via SSH, you can also gain access to the CLI via a locally attached keyboard and monitor.  Shown below, I've used PuTTY to gain access to the CLI of the CUCM server.
