Appendix D Basic Phone Administration Steps

Configuring the Phone

b.In the Protocol Specific Information pane of this window, choose a Device Security Profile from the drop-down list. To enable security features for a phone, you must configure a new security profile for the device type and protocol and apply it to the phone. If the phone does not support security, choose a non-secure profile.

To identify the settings that are contained in the profile, choose System > Security Profile > Phone Security Profile.

Note The security profile chosen should be based on the overall security strategy of the company.

c.In the Extension Information pane of this window, check the Enable Extension Mobility box if this phone supports Cisco Extension Mobility.

d.Click Save.

Step 2 Configure line settings:

a.On the Phone Configuration window, click Line 1 on the left pane of the window. The Directory Number Configuration window appears.

b.In the Directory Number field, enter a valid number that can be dialed.

Note This field should contain the same number that appears in the Telephone Number field on the User Configuration window.

Example: 26640 is the directory number of user John Doe in the example above.

c.From the Route Partition drop-down list, choose the partition to which the directory number belongs. If you do not want to restrict access to the directory number, choose <None> for the partition.

d.From the Calling Search Space drop-down list (Directory Number Settings pane of the Directory Number Configuration window), choose the appropriate calling search space. A calling search space comprises a collection of partitions that are searched for numbers that are called from this directory number. The value that you choose applies to all devices that are using this directory number.

e.In the Call Pickup and Call Forward Settings pane of the Directory Number Configuration window, choose the items (i.e. Forward All, Forward Busy Internal) and corresponding destinations to which calls should be sent.

Example: If you want incoming internal and external calls that receive a busy signal to be forwarded to the voice mail for this line, check the Voice Mail box next to the “Forward Busy Internal” and “Forward Busy External” items in the left column of the Call Pickup and Call Forward Settings pane.

f.In the “Line 1 on Device...” pane of the Directory Number Configuration window, configure the following:

–Display (Internal Caller ID field)—You can enter the first name and last name of the user of this device so that this name will be displayed for all internal calls. You can also leave this field blank to have the system display the phone extension.

–External Phone Number Mask—Indicate phone number (or mask) that is used to send Caller ID information when a call is placed from this line.

You can enter a maximum of 24 number and "X" characters. The Xs represent the directory number and must appear at the end of the pattern.
