Adding DECT Handsets to CUCM Database
This section describes how to add the individual Spectralink DECT Handsets to the Cisco Unified
Communications Manager.
Each individual DECT handset is identified by a unique IPEI number, which is generated by the
Spectralink IP-DECT/DECT/Virtual IP-DECT Server. This IPEI number can be compared to the
MAC address, which identifies the Cisco IP Phones. The IPEI number of a specific DECT handset
can be viewed by editing the user in the Spectralink IP-DECT/DECT/Virtual IP-DECT Server.
Two different methods for adding handsets are supported:
l Manual end user/handset creation
l Automated end user/handset provisioning using the Bulk Administration Tool
Manual End User/Handset Creation in CUCM
Manual handset creation consists of the following two tasks:
l Adding new end users manually
l Adding handsets manually
To Add End Users Manually
1. Navigate to Cisco Unified CM Administration > User Management > End User.
2. Click Add new.
3. On the End User Configuration page, enter relevant data in the following fields:
Field Setting
User Information
User Id Enter the relevant user ID. E.g. rchristensen
Password Enter a password.
(If you are LDAP integrated, this field will be
grayed out and unavailable, and you would cre-
ate or modify this password through the Active
Directory Server. This password is not used by
the Spectralink IP-DECT/DECT/Virtual IP-
DECT Server, but it is good practice to assign a
password for each user).
Confirm Password Confirm the password.
