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.
