In which three of the following cases can VPIM Networking be used for messaging? (Choose three.)
The correct answer is A. Cisco Unity systems where the partner Microsoft Exchange Servers are in different Active B. Cisco Unity with Microsoft Exchange 2000 or Microsoft Exchange 2003, and Cisco Unity with C. Cisco Unity and Cisco Unity Express. VPIM Networking is designed to interconnect voice messaging systems, making it applicable between Cisco Unity deployments in different AD forests, between different Cisco Unity versions, and between Cisco Unity and Cisco Unity Express.

Why each option
VPIM Networking is designed to interconnect voice messaging systems, making it applicable between Cisco Unity deployments in different AD forests, between different Cisco Unity versions, and between Cisco Unity and Cisco Unity Express.
VPIM Networking allows Cisco Unity systems whose partner Exchange servers reside in separate Active Directory forests to exchange voice messages using SMTP, bypassing the AD trust requirements of native Unity networking.
VPIM enables interoperability between Cisco Unity systems running different versions of Microsoft Exchange, such as Exchange 2000 or 2003 versus later versions, because it uses a standard SMTP-based protocol independent of Exchange topology.
Cisco Unity and Cisco Unity Express are two distinct Cisco voice messaging platforms, and VPIM is the standard supported method for enabling voice message exchange between them.
The Cisco Presence Server is a presence and instant messaging platform, not a voice messaging system, so VPIM Networking does not apply to it.
Cisco Unified Communications Manager is a call processing and telephony platform, not a voice messaging system, and therefore cannot participate in VPIM Networking.
Cisco Unified Contact Center Express is a contact center solution, not a voice messaging platform, and is not a valid VPIM Networking endpoint.
