MAC Address of a Cisco Unified IP Phone” section on page 2-20.

After you have collected MAC addresses, choose Device > Add a New Device in Cisco Unified CallManager Administration to begin.

Adding Phones with BAT

The Cisco Bulk Administration Tool (BAT) is a plug-in application for Cisco Unified CallManager that enables you to perform batch operations, including registration, on multiple phones.

To add phones using BAT only (not in conjunction with TAPS), you first need to obtain the appropriate MAC address for each phone.

For information about determining a MAC address, see the “Determining the

MAC Address of a Cisco Unified IP Phone” section on page 2-20.
