User/Phone Add Configuration
The End User, Phone, DN, and LA Configuration window in Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration provides a single window that allows the administrator to perform the basic steps that are required to add a new user and assign the user to a new phone. While you add a new end user and associate the end user with a new phone, you can configure a new directory number (DN) and line appearance (LA) information for the new end phone.
Note
The End User, Phone, DN, and LA Configuration window does not allow you to enter existing end users, phones, or directory numbers.
The End User, Phone, DN, and LA Configuration window adds records of the following types:
•
End users
•
Phones
•
Directory numbers
•
Device profiles
•
Voicemail profile
Note
You can modify end user information only if synchronization with an LDAP server is not enabled. To check whether synchronization with an LDAP server is enabled, use the System > LDAP > LDAP System menu option. In the LDAP System window that displays, ensure that the Enable Synchronizing from LDAP Server check box is not checked. If synchronization is enabled, access to the End User, Phone, DN, and LA Configuration window is blocked.
The following topics contain information on adding and configuring end users at the End User, Phone, DN, and LA Configuration window:

Adding an End User and Phone
The following procedure provides instructions on adding an end user and phone and associating the user and phone with a directory number and device profile.
Procedure
Step 1
Choose User Management > User/Phone Add.
The End User, Phone, DN, and LA Configuration window displays.
Note
If LDAP synchronization is enabled, access to this window is blocked. For more information about LDAP synchronization, refer to LDAP System Configuration, page 14-1.

Note
Before you proceed, you can use the links in the Related Links drop-down list box at the top, right of the End User, Phone, DN, and LA Configuration window to determine whether an end user or phone already exists.
To find out which end users already exist, choose Back to Find List Users in the Related Links drop-down list box and click Go. Use the Find and List Users window that displays to search for the end user ID that you plan to add. If the end user ID already exists, you cannot use the User/Phone Add menu option to add this end user.
To find out which phones already exist, choose Back to Find List Phones in the Related Links drop-down list box and click Go. Use the Find and List Phones window that displays to search for the phone that you plan to add. If the phone already exists, you cannot use the User/Phone Add menu option to add this phone.
If you use either of the Related Links, repeat Step 1 to return to the End User, Phone, DN, and LA Configuration window.
Step 2
Enter the appropriate settings as described in Table 109-1.
Step 3
When you complete the end user configuration, click Save to add the end user and device.
The end user gets created in the Cisco Unified Communications Manager database.

From the drop-down list box, choose the type of device to associate with this end user.
|
MAC Address

• Enter the literal digits that you want to appear in the caller ID information and use Xs to represent the directory number of the associated device.
• See the following examples:
If you specify a mask of 972813XXXX, an external call from extension 1234 displays a caller ID number of 9728131234 if the Use External Phone Number Mask option is checked on the route pattern that is used to make the external call.
If you specify a mask of all literal digits, such as 9728135000 to represent a main attendant number, that literal number (9728135000) displays as the caller ID for an external call from any associated device.
