Converting a New Phone from SCCP to SIP
A new, unused phone is set for SCCP by default. To convert this phone to SIP,
perform these steps:
Procedure
Step 1
Take one of these actions:
•
To auto-register the phone, set the Auto Registration Phone Protocol
parameter in Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration to SIP.
•
To provision the phone using the Bulk Administration Tool (BAT), choose the
appropriate phone model and choose SIP from the BAT.
•
To provision the phone manually, make the appropriate changes for SIP on
the Phone configuration window in Cisco Unified Communications Manager
Administration.
Refer to
Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration Guide
for
detailed information about Cisco Unified Communications Manager
configuration. Refer to
Cisco Unified Communications Manager Bulk
Administration Guide
for detailed information about using the BAT.
Step 2
If you are not using DHCP in your network, configure the network parameters for
the phone.
