Installing Cisco Unified IP Phones
After you have added the phones to the Cisco Unified CallManager database, you
can complete the phone installation. You (or the phone users) can install the phone
at the users’s location. The Cisco Unified IP Phone Installation Guide that ships
in the box with each phone provides directions for connecting the phone
footstand, handset, cables, and other accessories.
After the phone is connected to the network, the phone startup process begins and
the phone registers with Cisco Unified CallManager. To finish installing the
phone, configure the network settings on the phone depending on whether you
enable or disable DHCP service.
