Chapter 2 Preparing to Install the Cisco Unified IP Video Phone on Your Network Adding Phones to the Cisco Unified CallManager Database To implement TAPS, you or the end-user dials a TAPS directory number and follows voice prompts. During the process, the phone downloads its directory number and other settings and updates Cisco Unified CallManager Administration with the correct MAC address. You must make sure that auto-registration is enabled in Cisco Unified CallManager Administration (System > Cisco CallManager) for TAPS to function. Refer to Bulk Administration Tool User Guide for Cisco Unified CallManager for detailed instructions about BAT and about TAPS.

To do so, you first need to obtain the MAC address for each phone. You can determine a phone's MAC address from the phone itself. To determine the MAC address from the phone, choose Settings > Model Information and look at the MAC Address field. After you collect MAC addresses, choose Device > Add a New Device in Cisco Unified CallManager Administration to begin. For complete instructions and conceptual information about Cisco Unified CallManager, refer to Cisco Unified CallManager Administration Guide and to Cisco Unified CallManager System Guide.
