By enabling auto-registration before you begin installing phones, you can:
Add phones without first gathering MAC addresses from the phones.
•
Automatically add a Cisco Unified IP Phone to the Cisco Unified
•
Communications Manager database when you physically connect the phone
to your IP telephony network. During auto-registration, Cisco Unified
Communications Manager assigns the next available sequential directory
number to the phone.
•
Quickly enter phones into the Cisco Unified Communications Manager
database and modify any settings, such as the directory numbers, from
Cisco Unified Communications Manager.
Move auto-registered phones to new locations and assign them to different
•
device pools without affecting their directory numbers.
Cisco recommends that you use auto-registration to add fewer than 100 phones to
your network. To add more than 100 phones to your network, use the Bulk
Administration Tool (BAT). See the
page
2-14.
Auto-registration is disabled by default. In some cases, you might not want to use
auto-registration: for example, if you want to assign a specific directory number
to the phone, or if you plan to implement authentication or encryption, as
described in Cisco Unified Communications Manager Security Guide. For
information about enabling auto-registration, refer to "Enabling
Auto-Registration" in Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration
Guide.
When you configure the cluster for mixed mode through the Cisco CTL client,
auto-registration is automatically disabled. When you configure the cluster for
non-secure mode through the Cisco CTL client, auto-registration is automatically
enabled.
