Cisco Catalyst 3000, Administration Manual

Description Setting
Enter at least one extension in the Extensions cell.
The first extension that you enter in the cell assigns
an owner to the phone. The user that is associated
with that extension gets assigned to the phone, and if
the phone supports the functionality in the usage
profile, the user can use the features on the phone that
the user owns.
You can set up to six extensions.
To create a shared line, which is a single extension
that two or more phones share, enter an extension that
will be assigned to two or more phones.
To create a rollover line, which is the same line that
is assigned to the same phone, enter the same
extension more than once in the cell.
Always verify that the user and assigned
extension exist. If you plan to add a phone
through the Cisco-provided .xls data
configuration file, make sure that you add
at least one extension to the Line cell under
the Phone tab. Otherwise, the phone
configuration fails to get inserted into the
system.In addition, if the extension is not
assigned to a user, the phone configuration
fails to get inserted into the system. Caution
Line
Users Tab Settings
Phones, users, and lines are closely related in Cisco Business Edition 3000. A user, which is an employee
from the company, uses the usage profile on a phone that is supported in Cisco Business Edition 3000. Because
phones and users are closely related, you cannot configure a phone without first configuring a user that has
an extension (line) from the dial plan assigned to it.
In the Cisco Business Edition 3000 system, a user becomes an owner of a phone when you assign the user
extension to line 1 on the phone. If the user is an owner of the phone, the phone uses the usage profile that is
assigned to the user.
To configure other settings, such as speed dials, external caller ID, and call forward all, as described in the
User Settings, on page 385 , select Users/Phones > Users in the Cisco Business Edition 3000 Administrative
Interface.
The following table describes the settings for the Users tab.
