Preface
Overview
The Cisco IP Phone Administration Guide for Cisco CallManager, 
Cisco IP Phone 7961G/7961G-GE and 7941G/7941G-GE provides the 
information you need to understand, install, configure, manage, and troubleshoot 
the phones on a Voice-over-IP (VoIP) network.
Because of the complexity of an IP telephony network, this guide does not provide 
complete and detailed information for procedures that you need to perform in 
Cisco CallManager or other network devices. See the “Related Documentation” 
section on page xv.
Audience
Network engineers, system administrators, or telecom engineers should review 
this guide to learn the steps required to properly set up the Cisco IP Phone on the 
network.
The tasks described are administration-level tasks and are not intended for 
end-users of the phones. Many of the tasks involve configuring network settings 
and affect the phone’s ability to function in the network.
Because of the close interaction between the Cisco IP Phone and 
Cisco CallManager, many of the tasks in this manual require familiarity with 
Cisco CallManager.
