Adding a Phone

Before a Cisco IP Phone can be used, you must use this procedure to add the phone to Cisco CallManager. You can also use this procedure to configure H.323 clients, CTI ports, Cisco ATA 186 telephone adapter, or the Cisco VG248 Analog Phone Gateway (each of the 48 ports is recognized and configured as a phone). H.323 clients can be Symbol NetVision phones or Microsoft NetMeeting clients. CTI ports designate virtual devices that Cisco CallManager applications such as Cisco SoftPhone and Cisco AutoAttendant use.

Note If you are planning to use a TAPI application to control CTI port devices that are using the Cisco TAPI Service Provider (TSP), then you may only configure one line per CTI port device.
