Scenario 2: Mixed Configuration
In this configuration, each user has a phone assigned to him. Each user has a
device profile too which follows him on every device he logs into. Each u ser has
access to common devices, such as lobby phones, conference room phones, and
cubicle phones that are meant to be shared.
Note In this scenario, no one is allowed to use anyone else’s phone.
This is a recommended configuration.
Scenario 3: Mixed Configuration
In this scenario, some employees may have a regular desk phone and other users
can log into this phone.
This is not a recommended configuration for CiscoCallManager
Extension Mobility for the following reasons.
When a device is configured for CiscoCallManager Extension Mobility, a
snapshot of that device is taken which is used as a profile after a user lo gs off that
device.
With Cisco CallManager ExtensionMobility enabled on Tom’s personal
extension, Tom goes to his Cisco Phone User Options web pages to configure
services. He has two options from the “Select device to configure” drop-down
menu: the device (the office phone) he controls or the Default Device Profile.
•If Tom selects his office phone and it is a device which a user controls, Tom
can add services such as speed dials or Cisco stock price display. If Dick logs
into that phone, Dick’s default device profile is loaded onto that phone. When
Dick logs off, the snapshot profile, without the speed dials and Cisco stock
price display, is loaded on the phone.
•If Tom selects his Default Device Profile from the “Select device to
configure” down-down menu, the changes that he makes to this profile will
appear only on the phone on which he logs into imm ediately after making the
change and not on the device he controls.
