Configuring Cisco IPICS as a Phone Service for Cisco Unified Communications Manager

This section describes how to configure the Cisco IPICS service in Cisco Unified Communications Manager. After you configure Cisco IPICS as an available service, IP phone users can subscribe to the service by using the Cisco Unified Communications Manager User Options web site. When users subscribe to the Cisco IPICS service, the Cisco Unified IP Phone Services menu displays Cisco IPICS as an option.

For additional information about Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration and about setting up phone services, refer to the Cisco Unified IP Phone Services configuration information in Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration Guide for your Cisco Unified Communications Manager version. You can find the Cisco Unified Communications Manager documentation at the following URL:

You can configure whether the Cisco IPICS service requires users to log in before accessing the service from a Cisco Unified IP Phone. If there are users who you do not want to require to log on, you can configure a separate service that bypasses the log in for each of these users.

To configure the Cisco IPICS service as an available service in Cisco Unified

Communications Manager, perform the following procedure:

Step 1 From Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration, take one of these actions:

•For Cisco Unified CallManager 3.x or 4.x—Choose Feature > Cisco IP Phone Services.
