Additional Information

Cisco PAM supports three different URL’s.You can configure any one of the below URLs based on your requirement.

URL 1: Just the URL

http://<ip_address_of_cpam>/IPPhoneManager.jsp

Use the above URL to create a service without username and password to display all doors. Once configured, the user is requested for the user credentials for each access.

URL 2: URL with Username and Password:

http://<ip_address_of_cpam>/IPPhoneManager.jsp?method=authenticate&UserName=<cpamadmin>& pass=<password_for_cpamadmin>

Use the above URL to create a service with username and password to display all doors. Once configured, the user can select a door and grant access without giving the user credentials each time.

Usecase example for URL 2:For a receptionist in a busy school/university, If the number of keystrokes necessary to unlock a door at the phone are too many, then you can pre-configure the URL with their(receptionist) Username and the Password.

URL 3: Quick unlock: Just one click to unlock/grant access to the door:

http://<ip_address_of_cpam>/QuickUnlock.jsp?method=authenticate&UserName=<cpamadmin>&pass=<password_for_cpamadmin>&resourceId=<Door_Unique_ID>&resourceType=door
