Configuring Customized System Messages for Cisco Unified IP Phones
Use the
system message
command to customize the system message displayed on all Cisco Unified IP
Phones during Cisco Unified CM fallback.
One of two keywords,
primary
and
secondary
, must be included in the command. The
primary
keyword is for IP phones that can support static text messages during fallback. The default display
message for primary IP phones in fallback mode is “CM Fallback Service Operating.”
The
secondary
keyword is for Cisco Unified IP Phones that do not support static text messages and have
a limited display space. Secondary IP phones flash messages during fallback. The default display
message for secondary IP phones in fallback mode is “CM Fallback Service.”
Changes to the display message will occur immediately after configuration or at the end of each call.
Note
The normal in-service static text message is controlled by Cisco Unified Communications Manager.
