Chapter 5 Configuring Features, Templates, Services, and Users
Setting Up Services
To configure softkey templates, choose Device > Device Settings > Softkey Template from
Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration. To assign a softkey template to a phone, use
the Softkey Template field in the Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration Phone
configuration window. Refer to Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration Guide and
Cisco Unified Communications Manager System Guide for more information.
Setting Up Services
The Services button on the Cisco Unified IP Phone gives users access to Cisco Unified IP Phone
Services. You can also assign services to the programmable buttons on the phone (refer to Cisco Unified
IP Phone 7970 Series Guide for more information). These services comprise XML applications that
enable the display of interactive content with text and graphics on the phone. Examples of services
include local movie times, stock quotes, and weather reports.
Before a user can access any service:
• You must use Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration to configure available
services.
• The user must subscribe to services by using the Cisco Unified IP Phone User Options web pages.
This web-based application provides a graphical user interface (GUI) for limited, end-user
configuration of IP Phone applications.
Before you set up services, gather the URLs for the sites that you want to set up and verify that users can
access those sites from your corporate IP telephony network.
To set up these services, choose Device > Device Settings > Phone Services from
Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration. Refer to Cisco Unified Communications
Manager Administration Guide and to Cisco Unified Communications Manager System Guide for more
information.
After you configure these services, verify that your users have access to the
Cisco Unified Communications Manager IP Phone Options web-based application, from which they can
select and subscribe to configured services. See the “How Users Subscribe to Services and Configure
Phone Features” section on page A-3 for a summary of the information that you must provide to end
users.
Adding Users to Cisco Unified Communications Manager
Adding users to Cisco Unified Communications Manager allows you to display and maintain
information about users and allows each user to perform these tasks:
• Access the corporate directory and other customized directories from a Cisco Unified IP Phone
• Create a personal directory
• Set up speed dial and call forwarding numbers
• Subscribe to services that are accessible from a Cisco Unified IP Phone
You can add users to Cisco Unified Communications Manager using either of these methods:
• To add users individually, choose User Management > End User from
Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration.
