Cisco IP Phones
Cisco IP Phones as full-featured telephones can plug directly into your IP
network. H.323 clients, CTI ports, and Cisco IP Communicator comprise
software-based devices that you configure similarly to the Cisco IP Phones.
Cisco CallManager Administration allows you to configure phone features such
as call forwarding and call waiting for your phone devices. You can also create
phone button templates to assign a common button configuration to a large
number of phones.
After you have added the phones, you can associate users with them. By
associating a user with a phone, you give that user control over that device.

H.323 Clients and CTI Ports
Cisco CallManager Administration enables you to configure software-based
devices such as H.323 clients and CTI ports. Software-based Cisco CallManager
applications such as Cisco SoftPhone, Cisco AutoAttendant, and Cisco IP
Interactive Voice Response (IVR) use CTI ports that are virtual devices.
H.323 clients include Microsoft NetMeeting devices.
You configure H.323 clients and CTI ports through the Phone Configuration
window in Cisco CallManager Administration like you do phones, but they often
require fewer configuration settings.
Note Cisco recommends that you do not configure CTI ports or devices that use TAPI
applications in a line group.
For information on H.323 clients and shared line appearances, see the “Shared
Line Appearance” section on page 40-26.

Chapter 40 Cisco IP Phones Cisco IP Communicator
For instructions on how to configure H.323 clients and CTI ports, refer to
“Cisco IP Phone Configuration” in the Cisco CallManager Administration Guide.
Cisco IP Communicator
Cisco IP Communicator is a software-based application that allows users to place
and receive phone calls using their personal computers. Cisco IP Communicator
depends upon the Cisco CallManager call processing system to provide telephony
features and Voice-over-IP capabilities.
This interaction with Cisco CallManager means that Cisco IP Communicator
provides the same functionality as a full-featured Cisco IP Phone, while providing
the portability of a desktop application. Additionally, it means that you administer
Cisco IP Communicator as a phone device by using the Cisco CallManager
Administration Phone Configuration window.
Phone Button Templates
Cisco CallManagerincludes severaldefaultphone button templates.When adding
phones, you can assign one of these templates to the phones or create a new
template.
Creating and using templates provides a fast way to assign a common button
configuration to a large number of phones. For example, if users in your company
do not use the conference feature, you can create a template that reassigns this
button to a different feature, such as speed dial.
To create a template, you must make a copy of an existing template and assign the
template a unique name. You can make changes to the custom templates that you
created, and you can change the labels of the default phone button templates. You
cannot change the function of the buttons in the default templates. You can rename
existing templates and modify them to create new ones, update custom templates
to add or remove features, lines, or speed dials, and delete custom templates that
are no longer being used. When you update a template, the change affects all
phones that use the template.
Renaming a template does not affect the phones that use that template. All
Cisco IP Phones that use this template continue to use this template after it is
renamed.

Chapter 40 Cisco IP Phones
Phone Button Templates
40-12
Cisco CallManager System Guide OL-7135-01
Make sure that all phones have at least one line that is assigned to each phone.
Normally, this assignment specifies button 1. Phones can have additional lines
that are assigned, depending on the Cisco IP Phone model. Phones also generally
have several features, such as speed dial, that are assigned to the remaining
buttons.
You can delete phone templates that are not currently assigned to any phone in
your system if they are not the only template for a given phone model. You cannot
delete a template that is assigned to one or more devices or the default template
for a model (specified in the Device Defaults Configuration window). You must
reassign all Cisco IP Phones that are using the template that you want to delete to
a different phone button template before you can delete the template.
Note The standard phone button template for the Cisco IP Phone Model 7960, which
supports the Cisco IP Phone Model 7914 Expansion Module, includes buttons for
both devices (up to 34 buttons).
Use the Dependency Records link on the Phone Button Template Configuration
window to view the devices that are using a particular template.
Cisco CallManager does not directly control all features on Cisco IP Phones
through phone button templates. Refer to the Cisco IP Phone Administration
Guide for Cisco CallManager and other phone documentation for detailed
information about individual Cisco IP Phone 7900 family models.
Default Phone Button Templates
Although all Cisco IP Phones support similar features, you implement these
features differently on various models. For example, some models configure
features such as Hold or Transfer by using phone button templates; other models
have fixed buttons or onscreen program keys for these features that are not
configurable. Also, the maximum number of lines or speed dials that are
supported differs for some phone models. These differences require different
phone button templates for specific models.
Each Cisco IP Phone model comes with a default phone button template. You can
use the default templates as is to quickly configure phones. You can also copy and
modify the templates to create custom templates.

40-13
Cisco CallManager System Guide
OL-7135-01
Chapter 40 Cisco IP Phones Phone Button Templates
Custom templates enable you to make features available on some or all phones,
restrict the use of certain features to certain phones, configure a different number
of lines or speed dials for some or all phones, and so on, depending on how the
phone will be used. For example, you may want to create a custom template that
can be applied to phones that will be used in conference rooms. Table 40-2
provides descriptions of the default phone button template for each
Cisco IP Phone model.

Guidelines for Customizing Phone Button Templates
Use the following guidelines when you are creating custom phone button
templates:
•Make sure that phone users receive a quick reference card or getting started
guide that describes the most basic features of the custom template. If you
create a custom template for employees in your company to use, make sure
that it includes the following features and that you describe them on the quick
reference card that you create for your users.
– Cisco IP Phone 7970, 7960, 7940—Line (one or more)
– Cisco IP Phone 7912—Line, speed dial, hold, and settings
– Cisco IP Phone 7910—Forward all

Note The default process does not assign a softkey template to the Cisco IP Phone. The
administrator must assign standard or nonstandard softkey templates to the
Cisco IP Phone by assigning the templates individually to each phone or by
assigning the device pool to each phone.
The administrator creates a nonstandard softkey template by using the Softkey
Template Configuration windows in Cisco CallManager Administration. To
create a nonstandard softkey template, the administrator copies a standard softkey
template and makes changes. The administrator can add and remove applications
that are associated with any nonstandard softkey template. Additionally, the
administrator can configure softkey sets for each call state for a nonstandard
softkey template.
The Softkey Template Configuration window lists the standard and nonstandard
softkey templates and uses different icons to differentiate between standard and
nonstandard templates.
The administrator assigns softkey templates in the following Cisco CallManager
Administration configuration windows:

•Phone Configuration (Cisco IP Phones 7905, 7912, 7920, 7940, 7960, 7970)
•User Device Profile Configuration
Add Application
The administrator can add a standard softkey template that is associated with a
Cisco application to a nonstandard softkey template. When the administrator
clicks the Add Application button from the Softkey Template Configuration
window, a separate window displays and allows the administrator to choose the
standard softkey template that is to be added to the end of the nonstandard softkey
template. Duplicate softkeys get deleted from the end of the set that is moving to
