When the DPA 7630/7610 connects to Cisco CallManager through
auto-registration, the ports connected between the DPA 7630/7610 and the Octel
system are registered as Cisco IP Phones. These ports are actually emulated IP
phones used to access the voice mail system and to process MWI commands.
Cisco CallManager only recognizes these IP phones after the Octel voice mail
system is up and running. Therefore, verify that the Octel system and the
Cisco DPA 7630/7610 systems are up before completing these tasks in
Cisco CallManager.
Auto-registration automatically assigns phones a directory number. The directory
number assigned is the next one available in sequential order within the device
pool assigned to this phone type in Cisco CallManager. However, if you need to,
you can modify this directory number for each emulated phone (see the
“Configuring the DPA Ports and Phones” section on page 4-10
).
During auto registration, the host name assigned to the DPA 7630/7610 is used to
populate the MAC address field in the record for the emulated phone in
Cisco CallManager. The default host name is: SEP + the last 10 digits of the MAC
address of the DPA 7630/7610. Typically, you should not change the default host
name, but to do so, see the
“Setting the Host Name” section on page 5-4
Cisco CallManager requires unique MAC addresses for all devices, but all 24
ports on the DPA 7630/7610 share the same MAC address. Therefore,
auto-registration includes a process that converts the host name into unique MAC
addresses for each port:
1.
The SEP portion of the host name is removed.
2.
The two-digit port number is appended to the right.
The virtual port is assigned 25 as its port number.
Manually Adding the DPA 7630/7610
If you want to assign specific directory numbers to the emulated IP phones on the
DPA 7630/7610 without using auto-registration, you must manually add each
phone to the Cisco CallManager database. Keep in mind several important facts:
•
Each port must have a unique MAC address. Use the auto-registration
formula to calculate the MAC address for each port.
•
Use the a descriptive name for the Description for each port. For ease of
administration, use a similar name for ports configured on the same
DPA 7630/7610 system.
