Note Cisco recommends you use auto-registration to add less than 100 phones to your
network. To add more than 100 phones to your network, use the Bulk
Administration Tool (BAT). See the “Adding Phones with BAT” section on
page 2-16.
Auto-registration is disabled by default. In some cases, you might not want to use
auto-registration: for example, if you want to assign a specific directory number
to the phone or if you plan to implement authentication or encryption, as
described in Cisco Unified Communications Manager Security Guide. For
information about enabling auto-registration, refer to “Enabling
Auto-Registration” in the Cisco Unified Communications Manager
Administration Guide.
Note When you configure the cluster for mixed mode through the Cisco CTL client,
auto-registration is automatically disabled. When you configure the cluster for
non-secure mode through the Cisco CTL client, auto-registration is automatically
enabled.

Adding Phones with Auto-Registration and TAPS
You can add phones with auto-registration and TAPS, the Tool for
Auto-Registered Phones Support, without first gathering MAC addresses from
phones.
TAPS works with the Bulk Administration Tool (BAT) to update a batch of phones
that were already added to the Cisco Unified Communications Manager database
with dummy MAC addresses. Use TAPS to update MAC addresses and download
pre-defined configurations for phones.
