/mcpRSS Really Simple Syndication (RSS) is a web application that enables access to voice messaging. The RSS setting enables the insecure RSS connections. By default, Unity Connection only supports secure connections to the RSS feed using SSL. Some RSS readers, for example Apple iTunes, do not support secure connections. If you want to allow users to be able to use RSS readers that do not support secure connections, see the Enabling Insecure RSS Connections section. Enabling Insecure RSS Connections Step 1 In Cisco Unity Connection Administration, expand System Settings > Advanced and select RSS. Step 2 On the RSS Configuration page, check the Allow Insecure RSS Connections check box and select Save. (For information on each field, see Help> This Page). Configuring an RSS Reader to View Voice Messages Users can configure an RSS reader to view voice messages. Following are some important considerations: • Use the following URL in the RSS Reader: – https://<Unity Connection server name>/cisco-unity-rss/rss.do The server name can either be the hostname, IPv4 address, or IPv6 address of the Unity Connection server. • When users connect to the RSS feed, they are required to provide the following: • Username: Enter the user alias. • Password: Enter the Cisco PCA password of the user (also known as the web application password). RSS Feed Limitations and Behavioral Notes • Only the 20 most recent unread messages are presented in the RSS feed. • If the message is secure or private, a decoy message plays instead of the actual message. The decoy message indicates that the message is secure or private and that the user must retrieve the message by calling in by phone. • Broadcast messages are not included in the RSS feed. • Messages cannot be deleted. Messages can only be marked read. • Marking a message read removes it from the RSS feed. • US English is the only language supported at this time.
