Configuration Step and Purpose		For More Information
Step 1	Gather the following information about the phone: •Phone Model •MAC address •Name or user ID of phone user •Device pool •Partition, calling search space, and location information •Number of lines and associated directory numbers (DNs) to assign to the phone •Cisco Unified Communications Manager user to associate with the phone •Phone usage information that affects softkey template, phone features, IP Phone services, or phone applications Provides list of configuration requirements for setting up phones. Identifies preliminary configuration that you need to perform before configuring individual phones, such as phone button templates or softkey templates.	See Cisco Unified Communications Manager System Guide, "Cisco Unified IP Phone" chapter. See Telephony Features Available for the Phone, page 7-2.
Step 2	Customize phone button templates (if required). Changes the number of line buttons, speed-dial buttons, Service URL buttons or adds a Privacy button to meet user needs.	See Cisco Unified CallManager Administration Guide, "Phone Button Template Configuration" chapter. See Modifying Phone Button Templates, page 7-18.
Step 3	Add and configure the phone by completing the required fields in the Phone Configuration window. Required fields are indicated by an asterisk (*) next to the field name; for example, MAC address and device pool. Adds the device with its default settings to the Cisco Unified Communications Manager database.	See Cisco Unified CallManager Administration Guide, "Cisco Unified IP Phone Configuration" chapter. For information about Product Specific Configuration fields, see "?" Button Help in the Phone Configuration window.
Step 4	Add and configure directory numbers (lines) on the phone by completing the required fields in the Directory Number Configuration window. Required fields are indicated by an asterisk (*) next to the field name; for example, directory number and presence group. Adds primary and secondary directory numbers and features associated with directory numbers to the phone.	See Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration Guide: •"Directory Number Configuration" chapter •"Creating a Cisco Unity Voice Mailbox" section. See Telephony Features Available for the Phone, page 7-2.
Step 5	Customize softkey templates. Adds, deletes, or changes order of softkey features that display on the user's phone to meet feature usage needs.	See Cisco Unified CallManager Administration Guide, "Softkey Template Configuration" chapter. See Configuring Softkey Templates, page 7-17.
Step 6	Assign line view speed-dial numbers (optional). Adds line view speed-dial numbers. Note Configuring and using line view speed-dial numbers are different from speed-dial hot keys that are set up using the Phone Book feature and stored locally on the wireless IP phone. Note Users can change line view speed-dial settings on their phones by using Cisco Unified CM User Options.	See Cisco Unified CallManager Administration Guide, "Cisco Unified IP Phone Configuration" chapter, "Configuring Speed-Dial Buttons" section. See Cisco Unified Wireless IP Phone 7925G, 7925G-EX, and 7926G User Guide, "Advanced Call Handling" chapter, "Speed Dialing" section. See Telephony Features Available for the Phone, page 7-2
Step 7	Configure Cisco Unified IP Phone services and assign services (optional). Provides IP Phone services. Note Users can add or change services on their phones by using the Cisco Unified CM User Options.	See Cisco Unified CallManager Administration Guide, "Cisco Unified IP Phone Services Configuration" chapter. See Setting Up Services, page 7-18.
Step 8	Add user information by configuring required fields. Required fields are indicated by an asterisk (*); for example, User ID and last name. Note Assign a password (for User Options web pages) and PIN (for Extension Mobility and Personal Directory) Adds user information to the global directory for Cisco Unified Communications Manager.	See Cisco Unified CallManager Administration Guide, "End User Configuration" chapter. See Adding Users to Cisco Unified Communications Manager, page 7-21.
Step 9	Associate a user to a user group. Assigns users a common list of roles and permissions that apply to all users in a user group. Administrators can manage user groups, roles, and permissions to control the level of access (and, therefore, the level of security) for system users. Note Applicable to Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration Release 5.x and later.	See the Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration Guide: •"End User Configuration" chapter, "End User Configuration settings" section •"User Group Configuration" chapter, "Adding Users to a User Group" section
Step 10	Associate a user with a phone. This step is optional if you do not want users to have access to User Options. Provides users with control over their phone such as forwarding calls or adding line view speed-dial numbers or services. Note Some phones, such as those used by multiple users, do not have an associated user.	See Cisco Unified CallManager Administration Guide, "End User Configuration" chapter, "Associating Devices to a User" section.
