The following topics provide information about working with and configuring Cisco IP phones in Cisco CallManager Administration: • Configuring Cisco IP Phones, page 42-2 • Finding a Phone, page 42-26 • Configuring Directory Numbers, page 42-27 • Phone Button Template Configuration, page 43-1 • Phone Configuration Settings, page 42-12 • Phone Configuration Checklist, Cisco CallManager System Guide 78-13310-01 Cisco CallManager Administration Guide 42-1 Chapter 42 Cisco IP Phone Configuration Configuring Cisco IP Phones Configuring Cisco IP Phones You can add phones to the Cisco CallManager database automatically using auto-registration, manually using the phone configuration panes, or in groups with the Bulk Administration Tool (BAT). By enabling auto-registration, you can automatically add a Cisco IP phone to the Cisco CallManager database when you connect the phone to your IP telephony network. During auto-registration, Cisco CallManager assigns the next available sequential directory number to the phone. In many cases, you might not want to use auto-registration; for example, if you want to assign a specific directory number to a phone. If you do not use auto-registration, you must manually add phones to the Cisco CallManager database or use the Bulk Administration Tool (BAT). BAT, a plug-in application, enables system administrators to perform batch add, modify, and delete operations on large numbers of Cisco IP phones. Refer to the Bulk Administration Tool Guide for Cisco CallManager for detailed instructions on using BAT. Once you add a Cisco IP phone to Cisco CallManager Administration, the RIS Data Collector service displays the device name, registration status, and the IP address of the Cisco CallManager to which it is registered on the Phone Configuration pane. For information on how to configure phones as well as H.323 clients and CTI ports from Cisco CallManager Administration, see the following topics: • Cisco IP Phone Configuration, page 42-1 • Displaying the MAC Address of a Phone, page 42-3 • Adding a Phone, page 42-4 • Deleting a Phone, page 42-10 • Resetting a Phone, page 42-7 • Updating a Phone, page 42-9 • Copying an Existing Phone, page 42-6 • Phone Configuration Settings, page 42-12 • Configuring Speed Dial Buttons, page 42-20 • Speed Dial Configuration Settings, page 42-22 • Cisco IP Phones, Cisco CallManager System Guide • Phone Configuration Checklist, Cisco CallManager System Guide 42-2 Cisco CallManager Administration Guide 78-13310-01 Chapter 42 Cisco IP Phone Configuration Configuring Cisco IP Phones Displaying the MAC Address of a Phone The Media Access Control (MAC) address comprises a unique, 12-character, hexadecimal number that identifies a Cisco IP phone or other hardware device. Locate the number on a label on the bottom of the phone (for example, 000B6A409C405 for Cisco IP Phone 7900 Family models or SS-00-0B-64-09-C4-05 for Cisco IP Phone models SP 12+ and 30 VIP). Cisco CallManager makes the MAC address a required field for Cisco IP phone device configuration. When entering the MAC address in Cisco CallManager fields, do not use spaces or dashes and do not include the "SS" that may precede the MAC address on the label. To display the MAC address when the phone is powered on, perform the following steps: • Cisco IP Phone 7960 and 7940 models—Press Settings, use the arrow buttons to highlight the Network Configuration menu option, and press the Select softkey. • Cisco IP Phone 7910 — Press Settings, use the arrow buttons to locate Network Config options, and press 6 on the phone keypad to begin displaying the Network Config options; then, use the arrow keys to scroll the Network Config option display to the MAC address. • Cisco IP Phone models 12 SP+ and 30VIP—Press ** to display the MAC address on the second line of the LCD display. For more information about displaying additional configuration settings on Cisco IP phones, refer to the Cisco IP Phone 7900 Family Administration Guide and the individual Getting Started publications provided with Cisco IP phones.
