Configuring Corporate Directories
Cisco IP Phone models 7960 and 7940 can store a directory of employee names
and phone numbers. Although you access the directory from the IP Phone, you
must configure the directory before users can access it. To use the corporate
directory, you must have users entered into a Lightweight Directory Access
Protocol (LDAP) directory configured with Cisco CallManager.
To set up these features, open Cisco CallManager and select
User > Global
Directory
. Refer to the
Cisco CallManager Administration Guide,
the
Cisco CallManager System Guide
, or context-sensitive help in the
Cisco CallManager Administration application for details.
Setting Up User Services
The Cisco IP Phone models 7960 and 7940 allow users to access specific
information services, such as local movie times, stock quotes, weather reports,
and so on. Although users access these services by pressing the Services button
to display a services menu on the Cisco IP Phone, you must first configure the
services to which users can subscribe.
In summary:
•
System administrators configure available services using the
Cisco CallManager Administration application.
•
Users subscribe to services using the Cisco IP Phone User Options
application. This web-based application provides a graphic user interface
(GUI) for limited, end-user configuration of IP Phone applications.
Before setting up services, gather the URL addresses for the sites you want to set
up and verify that users can access those sites from your corporate IP telephony
network.
To set up these features, open the Cisco CallManager Administration application
and select
Feature > Cisco IP Phone Services
. Refer to the
Cisco CallManager
Administration Guide
, the
Cisco CallManager System Guide
, or context-sensitive
help in the Cisco CallManager Administration application for details.
