Adding Phones to the Cisco Unified Communications Manager Database
Adding Phones to the Cisco Unified Communications Manager
Database
Before installing the Cisco Unified IP phone, you must choose a method for adding phones to the
Cisco Unified Communications Manager database. Be aware that each phone type requires a fixed
number of device license units and the number of unit licenses that are available on the server may
impact phone registration. For more information on licensing go to the
Licenses for Phones
section in
the
Cisco Unified Communications Manager System Guide
These sections describe the methods:
Adding Phones with Auto-Registration, page 2-8
Adding Phones with Auto-Registration and TAPS, page 2-9
Adding Phones with Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration, page 2-9
Adding Phones with BAT, page 2-10

Requesting the Configuration File
The TFTP server has configuration files, which define
parameters for connecting to Cisco
Unified Communications Manager and other
information for the phone.
Adding Phones to the Cisco Unified
Communications Manager Database, page 2-7
.
Resolving Startup Problems, page 9-1
.
7.
Contacting Cisco Unified Communications Manager
The configuration file defines how the Cisco
Unified IP Phone communicates with Cisco
Unified Communications Manager and provides a
phone with its load ID. After obtaining the file from
the TFTP server, the phone attempts to make a
connection to the highest priority Cisco
Unified Communications Manager on the list.
If the phone was manually added to the database,
Cisco Unified Communications Manager identifies
the phone. If the phone was not manually added to the
database and auto-registration is enabled in Cisco
Unified Communications Manager, the phone
attempts to auto-register itself in the Cisco
Unified Communications Manager database.
