Copying an Existing Phone

If you want to manually add several similar phones to the Cisco CallManager database, you can add one and then copy its basic settings to apply to another phone. You must change at least the Media Access Control (MAC) address before inserting the new phone into the database.

Perform the following procedure to copy a phone’s settings.

Procedure

Step 1 Open Cisco CallManager Administration.

Step 2 Select Device > Phone.

The Find and List Phones page displays.

Step 3 Enter search criteria to locate a specific phone and click Find.

A list of phones that match the search criteria appears.

Step 4 Click on the Copy icon for the phone whose settings you want to copy.

The Phone Configuration page displays.

Step 5 Enter the MAC address of the new phone.

Step 6 Enter additional desired changes.

Step 7 Click Insert.

Once it is added, you can add and configure lines for the new phone.
