Considerations Type
Consider applying this usage profile to the users that assist with administering the system;
for example, to the IT support staff. If you use the default values in the usage profile:
• The user can place and receive internal, local, toll free, and long distance calls; if the
site where the phone resides allows these types of calls.
• The user can make emergency calls to the local center that handles emergencies for
the municipality; if the site where the phone resides allows emergency calls.
• The user can use barge and call pickup if the phone supports these features.
• The user can create speed dials if the phone has 3 or more buttons on it.
• The user can use the speakerphone and a headset if the phone supports that
functionality.

Users, Departments, Phones, and Lines
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 or department
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.
