The Cisco Unified IP Phone ships with two default ring types that are
implemented in hardware: Chirp1 and Chirp2. Cisco Unified CallManager also
provides a default set of additional phone ring sounds that are implemented in
software as pulse code modulation (PCM) files. The PCM files, along with an
XML file (named Ringlist.xml) that describes the ring list options that are
available at your site, exist in the TFTP directory on each
Cisco Unified CallManager server.
For more information, see the "Cisco TFTP" chapter in the
Cisco Unified CallManager System Guide, Release 5.0(1) and the "Software
Upgrades" chapter in the Cisco IP Telephony Platform Administration Guide.
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 Cisco TFTP
server for each Cisco Unified CallManager contains this file.
