Webex for BroadWorks Troubleshooting Resources

Contacts

Starting in October 2020, we are migrating BroadSoft customer support to Cisco CX support processes and tools. This means that Webex for BroadWorks partners need to move from using Xchange for case management to using Support Case Manager (SCM).

We expect the migration run for approximately 3 months and through the end of calendar year 2020. The BroadWorks/UCaaS TAC team will start supporting cases in CSOne / Lightning instead of BroadSoft Jira when you are migrated over. You may need to refer to cases in both systems during the migration period.

See Legacy BroadSoft Support Transition for details.

Serviceability Connector

The Cisco Webex Serviceability service increases the speed with which Cisco technical assistance staff can diagnose issues with your infrastructure. It automates the tasks of finding, retrieving and storing diagnostic logs and information into an SR case. The service also triggers analysis against diagnostic signatures so that TAC can more efficiently identify and resolve issues with your on-premises equipment.

For details on how to deploy the Serviceability Connector, go to Deployment Guide for Cisco Webex Serviceability Connector at https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/voice_ip_comm/cloudCollaboration/spark/hybridservices/serviceability/cmgt_b_deployment-guide-spark-hybrid-service-connector.html.
