As they deploy a new IP telephony system, system administrators and network administrators must complete
several initial configuration tasks to prepare the network for IP telephony service. For information and a
checklist for setting up and configuring a Cisco IP telephony network, see the documentation for your particular
Cisco Unified Communications Manager release.
For the phone to operate successfully as an endpoint in your network, your network must meet specific
requirements. One requirement is the appropriate bandwidth. The phones require more bandwidth than the
recommended 32 kbps when they register to Cisco Unified Communications Manager. Consider this higher
bandwidth requirement when you configure your QoS bandwidth. For more information, refer to
Cisco
Collaboration System 12.x Solution Reference Network Designs (SRND)
or later (

).
The phone displays the date and time from Cisco Unified Communications Manager. The time displayed on
the phone can differ from the Cisco Unified Communications Manager time by up to 10 seconds.
