Setting Up Services Chapter 5 Configuring Features, Templates, Services, and Users Setting Up Services The Services button on the Cisco Unified IP Phone gives users access to Cisco Unified IP Phone Services. You can also assign services to the programmable buttons on the phone (refer to Cisco Unified IP Phone 7965G and 7945G Guide for more information). These services comprise XML applications that enable the display of interactive content with text and graphics on the phone. Examples of services include local movie times, stock quotes, and weather reports. Before a user can access any service: • You must use Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration to configure available services. • The user must subscribe to services by using the Cisco Unified IP Phone User Options application. This web-based application provides a graphical user interface (GUI) for limited, end-user configuration of IP Phone applications. Before you set up services, gather the URLs for the sites that you want to set up and verify that users can access those sites from your corporate IP telephony network. To set up these services, choose Device > Device Settings > Phone Services from Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration. Refer to Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration Guide and to Cisco Unified Communications Manager System Guide for more information. After you configure these services, verify that your users have access to the Cisco Unified Communications Manager IP Phone Options web-based application, from which they can select and subscribe to configured services. See the "How Users Subscribe to Services and Configure Phone Features" section on page A-3 for a summary of the information that you must provide to end users. Adding Users to Cisco Unified Communications Manager Adding users to Cisco Unified Communications Manager allows you to display and maintain information about users and allows each user to perform these tasks: • Access the corporate directory and other customized directories from a Cisco Unified IP Phone • Create a personal directory • Set up speed dial and call forwarding numbers • Subscribe to services that are accessible from a Cisco Unified IP Phone You can add users to Cisco Unified Communications Manager using either of these methods: • To add users individually, choose User Management > End User from Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration. Refer to Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration Guide for more information about adding users. Refer to Cisco Unified Communications Manager System Guide for details about user information. • To add users in batches, use the Bulk Administration Tool. This method also enables you to set an identical default password for all users.
