Customizing the Cisco Unified IP Video Phone
RingList.xml File Format Requirements
Note
OL-8726-02
The following sections describe how you can customize the phone rings that are
available at your site by creating PCM files and editing the RingList.xml file:
RingList.xml File Format Requirements, page 6-2
•
PCM File Requirements for Custom Ring Types, page 6-3
•
Configuring a Custom Phone Ring, page 6-4
•
The RingList.xml file defines an XML object that contains a list of phone ring
types. This file can include up to 50 ring types. Each ring type contains a pointer
to the PCM file that is used for that ring type and the text that will appear on the
Ring Type menu on a Cisco Unified IP Phone for that ring. The C:\
Program Files\Cisco\TFTPPath directory of the Cisco TFTP server for each Cisco
Unified CallManager contains this file.
The CiscoIPPhoneRingList XML object uses the following simple tag set to
describe the information:
<CiscoIPPhoneRingList>
<Ring>
<DisplayName/>
<FileName/>
</Ring>
</CiscoIPPhoneRingList>
The following characteristics apply to the definition names. You must include the
required DisplayName and FileName for each phone ring type.
DisplayName defines the name of the custom ring for the associated PCM file
•
that will display on the Ring Type menu of the Cisco Unified IP Phone.
FileName specifies the name of the PCM file for the custom ring to associate
•
with DisplayName.
The DisplayName and FileName fields must not exceed 25 characters.
