CTI Ports

CTI ports are virtual devices that are used by software-based Cisco CallManager applications such as Cisco SoftPhone, Cisco AutoAttendant, and

Cisco IP Interactive Voice Response (IVR). CTI ports are configured through the same Cisco CallManager Administration area as phones, but require fewer configuration settings.

•For general instructions on how to configure settings for CTI ports, refer to the “Configuring Cisco IP Phones” section on page 46-5.

•For information on how to configure CTI ports for use with a specific application, such as Cisco SoftPhone, refer to the documentation and online help provided with that application.

H.323 Clients

H.323 clients include Microsoft NetMeeting devices and NetVision Symbol phones. They are configured through the same Cisco CallManager Administration pages as phones, but require fewer configuration settings.

For instructions on how to configure H.323 clients, refer to the “Configuring

Cisco IP Phones” section on page 46-5.

Configuring Cisco IP Phones

When connecting a Cisco IP Phone to your IP telephony network, you can choose to allow the phone to auto-register itself with the Cisco CallManager database. By enabling auto-registration, you can automatically add phones to the database.
