Overview of Configuring and Installing Conference Stations
Installing Conference Stations
After you have added the conference stations to the Cisco Unified Communications Manager database,
you can complete the conference station installation. You (or the conference station users) can install the
conference station at the users’s location.
The Cisco Unified IP Conference Station 7937G Installation
Guide
provides directions for connecting the conference station to the network, and connecting any
optional accessories to the conference station. You can access the guide at the following URL:

After the conference station is connected to the network, the conference station startup process begins
and the conference station registers with Cisco Unified Communications Manager. To finish installing
the conference station, configure the network settings on the conference station depending on whether
you enable or disable DHCP service.
If you used auto-registration, you need to update the specific configuration information for the
conference station such as associating the conference station with a user, changing the button table, or
directory number.
