Aliasing SIP Deskphones for switch compatibility

Communication Manager 6.2 provides native support to SIP-based 9600 Series IP Deskphones
models 9601, 9608, 9608G, 9611G, 9621G, and 9641G. However, for deskphones running in a
Communication Manager release prior to 6.2 (6.0 and later), you must administer the

example, 9620, 9630. The following chart illustrates Communication Manager and deskphone
compatibility.
