Notes
Optional. You can use this
information to configure
devices in Cisco CallManager
Administration web
application.
The Device Information fields
in the Device Configuration
page will auto-populate if
information is relevant and
available. Edit fields only if
you want to override system
settings on a per-device basis.
Adding devices is required.
The method that you use to add
devices to Cisco CallManager
determines how the directory
number is assigned and
whether you need to obtain a
MAC address from a network
interface.
If you do not use
auto-registration or TAPS to
add a devices, you must add
the device to
Cisco CallManager before
deploying the application.
Not necessary if you use
auto-registration or TAPS.
