Phone button templates let you assign speed dials and features to programmable
line buttons.
While both SCCP and SIP phones support speed-dial buttons, support for call
features on buttons depends on the call control protocol:
On SCCP phones, call handling features that can be assigned to buttons
•
include call forward, redial, hold, conferencing, and so on.
On SIP phones, only the Do Not Disturb (DND) feature can be assigned to a
•
button.
Ideally, you modify templates before registering phones on the network. In this
way, you can access customized phone button template options from
Cisco Unified Communications Manager during registration.
To modify a phone button template, choose Device > Device Settings > Phone
Button Template from Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration.
To assign a phone button template to a phone, use the Phone Button Template field
in the Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration Phone
Configuration window. Refer to Cisco Unified Communications Manager
Administration Guide and Cisco Unified Communications Manager System Guide
for more information.
