•
Select

(configured by means of the services_url parameter).
•

External Directory
(configured by means of the directory_url parameter).
•
Download a bitmap to be used as the phone logo (configured by means of the logo_url parameter).
Restrictions for Cisco IP Phone Services
The phone supports Cisco IP Phone Services up through version 3.0. It does not support the following
XML objects in version 3.1 and later: CiscoIPPhoneIconMenu, CiscoIPPhoneExecute,
CiscoIPPhoneError, and CiscoIPPhoneResponse.
The following restrictions apply to phones that use Cisco IP Phone Services:
•
External directories cannot be appended to the main list of directories under the Directories button.
If external directories are provisioned for the phone, access them by pressing the Directories button
and selecting the External Directory option.
•
The phone removes white space when Cisco CallManager Cisco IP Phone Services are displayed.
Multiple spaces are consolidated into a single space.
•
The phone does not allow setting of
x
and
y
coordinates for the CiscoIPPhoneImage object. The
image always appears at location 0,0. Centering of the image is not supported if
x
and
y
are set to –1.
•
The phone displays any valid title that it receives. In contrast, with Cisco CallManager phones, the
CiscoIPPhoneGraphicMenu object does not display a title even if it receives one; the
CiscoIPPhoneImage object displays the previous menu item or service rather than received titles.
•
The phone discards carriage returns and line feeds. In contrast, Cisco CallManager phones allow
embedded carriage returns and line feeds.
•
The phone always displays the full set of directory softkeys. In contrast, Cisco CallManager phones
change the softkeys depending on what type of object the phone receives and the version of
Cisco CallManager.
•
The phone sends a parameter along with the initial request for a Services or Directory URL. Other
types of phones do not.
