How do I use Cisco WebEx Connect IM on Mac OS X?

How do I use Cisco WebEx Connect IM on Mac OS X, it seems to be using Jabber protocol.

Answer

It’s not officially supported yet, they have been talking about “coming soon” for quite a while – from the support thread “he Mac client has been pushed back a little and is tracking to end of the first quarter of the 2011 calendar year” https://www.myciscocommunity.com/thread/1847

there are some configs that you could possibly use a jabber gateway to access webex connect, so in theory Adium or iChat would work. I have not been able to verify this due to my employer using an SSO gateway between the client and the server.

Cisco now has web chat for webex connect – im.ciscowebex.com and is usable in most browsers including Safari.

If your employer uses SSO (single sign on) then you may have to go through their web gateway and authentication process.
