Cisco SPA500 Series and WIP310 IP Phone Administration Guide
To configure the server to use the Cisco SPA500S, configure each extension that
will be monitored by the attendant console. The Cisco SPA500S is a SIP
subscriber in relation to each SIP proxy server, which allows the Cisco SPA500S
to receive NOTIFY messages from the SIP proxy that indicate the status of each
monitored phone. In general, the SIP proxy is identified by its IP address, or
through a hostname if DNS is configured. The way in which each phone and
extension is identified is vendor-specific.
