Chapter 3 Setting Up the Cisco Unified IP Phone
Before You Begin
Cisco Unified CallManager Configuration
The Cisco Unified IP Phone requires Cisco Unified CallManager to handle call
processing. Refer to Cisco
Unified CallManager Administration Guide or
context-sensitive help in the Cisco
Unified CallManager application to ensure
that Cisco
Unified CallManager is set up properly to manage the phone and to
properly route and process calls.
If you plan to use auto-registration, verify that it is enabled and properly
configured in Cisco
Unified CallManager before connecting any
Cisco
Unified IP Phone to the network. For information about enabling and
configuring auto-registration, refer to Cisco
Unified CallManager Administration
Guide. Also, see the
“Adding Phones to the Cisco Unified CallManager
Database” section on page 2-12.
You must use Cisco Unified CallManager to configure and assign telephony
features to the Cisco
Unified IP Phones. See the “Telephony Features Available
for the Phone” section on page 5-2 for details.
In Cisco Unified CallManager, you can add users to the database and associate
them with specific phones. In this way, users gain access to web pages that allow
them to configure items such as call forwarding, speed dialing, and voice
messaging system options. See the
“Adding Users to Cisco Unified CallManager”
section on page 5-14 for details.
