Preface
Cisco Extension Mobility service, a feature of Cisco CallManager, allows a device, usually a Cisco IP Phone, to temporarily embody a new device profile, including lines, speed dials, and services.
The Cisco Extension Mobility service provides a fairly rich API, which enables extension mobility on IP phones and allows application control over authentication, scheduling, and availability.
An application that uses Cisco Extension Mobility service represents an IP phone service that allows a user to enter a userID and PIN at the phone itself and log into the phone. The architecture and implementation of Extension Mobility make many other applications possible.
Some examples are:
•
An application that automatically activates phones for employees when they reserve a particular desk for a particular time (the scheduling application).
•
A lobby phone does not have a line appearance until a user logs in.

Obtaining Technical Assistance
For all customers, partners, resellers, and distributors who hold valid Cisco service contracts, the Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC) provides 24-hour-a-day, award-winning technical support services, online and over the phone. Cisco.com features the Cisco TAC website as an online starting point for technical assistance. If you do not hold a valid Cisco service contract, please contact your reseller.
Developer Support
The Developer Support Program provides formalized support for Cisco Systems interfaces to enable developers, customers, and partners in the Cisco Service Provider solutions Ecosystem and Cisco AVVID Partner programs to accelerate their delivery of compatible solutions.
The Developer Support Engineers are an extension of the product technology engineering teams. They have direct access to the resources necessary to provide expert support in a timely manner.
For additional information on this program, refer to the Developer Support Program Web Site at
www.cisco.com/go/developer support/.
Developers using the Cisco CallManager 4.0(1) Extension Mobility API Developer Guide are encouraged to join the Cisco Developer Support Program. This new program provides a consistent level of support while leveraging Cisco interfaces in development projects.
Note
Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC) support does not include Extension Mobility API developer support and is limited to Cisco AVVID installation/configuration and Cisco-developed applications. For more information about the Developer Support Program, please contact Cisco at developer-support@cisco.com.
Cisco TAC Website
The Cisco TAC website provides online documents and tools for troubleshooting and resolving technical issues with Cisco products and technologies. The Cisco TAC website is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. The Cisco TAC website is located at this URL:
http://www.cisco.com/tac
Accessing all the tools on the Cisco TAC website requires a Cisco.com user ID and password. If you have a valid service contract but do not have a login ID or password, register at this URL:

Opening a TAC Case
Using the online TAC Case Open Tool is the fastest way to open P3 and P4 cases. (P3 and P4 cases are those in which your network is minimally impaired or for which you require product information.) After you describe your situation, the TAC Case Open Tool automatically recommends resources for an immediate solution. If your issue is not resolved using the recommended resources, your case will be assigned to a Cisco TAC engineer. The online TAC Case Open Tool is located at this URL:
http://www.cisco.com/tac/caseopen
For P1 or P2 cases (P1 and P2 cases are those in which your production network is down or severely degraded) or if you do not have Internet access, contact Cisco TAC by telephone. Cisco TAC engineers are assigned immediately to P1 and P2 cases to help keep your business operations running smoothly.
To open a case by telephone, use one of the following numbers:
Asia-Pacific: +61 2 8446 7411 (Australia: 1 800 805 227)
EMEA: +32 2 704 55 55
USA: 1 800 553-2447
For a complete listing of Cisco TAC contacts, go to this URL:

TAC Case Priority Definitions
To ensure that all cases are reported in a standard format, Cisco has established case priority definitions.
Priority 1 (P1)—Your network is "down" or there is a critical impact to your business operations. You and Cisco will commit all necessary resources around the clock to resolve the situation.
Priority 2 (P2)—Operation of an existing network is severely degraded, or significant aspects of your business operation are negatively affected by inadequate performance of Cisco products. You and Cisco will commit full-time resources during normal business hours to resolve the situation.
Priority 3 (P3)—Operational performance of your network is impaired, but most business operations remain functional. You and Cisco will commit resources during normal business hours to restore service to satisfactory levels.
Priority 4 (P4)—You require information or assistance with Cisco product capabilities, installation, or configuration. There is little or no effect on your business operations.
