Modifying Phone Button Templates 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.
