Adding Users to Cisco CallManager

Adding Users to Cisco CallManager

The Cisco CallManager Administration application allows you to display and maintain information about users on the network.

You must configure features to allow users to perform the following actions:

•Access the corporate directory and other customized directories from a Cisco IP Phone

•Create their own personal directories

•Set up their own speed dial and call forwarding numbers

To set up these features, you must first add users to Cisco CallManager, using either of the following methods:

•To add users individually, use the Cisco CallManager Administration application and select User >Add a New User.

Refer to Cisco CallManager Administration Guide, Cisco CallManager System Guide, or Cisco CallManager Administration online help in the application for details.

•To add users in batches, use the Bulk Administration Tool. This method also enables you to set an identical default password for all users.

Refer to Bulk Administration Tool User Guide for details.

Configuring the Corporate Directory

From the Cisco IP Phone models 7905G/7912G, users can look up directory numbers for their co-workers. To support this feature, you must first configure corporate directories

Cisco CallManager uses a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) directory to store authentication and authorization information about users of Cisco CallManager applications, which interface with the Cisco CallManager. Authentication establishes the user right to access the system, while authorization identifies the telephony resources that a user is permitted to use, such as a specific telephone extension.
