Cisco UnifiedIP Phone 7940G and Cisco Unified IP Phone 7960G are fully supported if dual registration
is enabled. Dual registration means that the SIP phone is capable of registering with the main SIP proxy
and the Cisco Unified SIP SRST device (redirect server or back-to-back user agent) at the same time. If
this requirement is not met, the Cisco Unified SIP SRST device may not be capable of routing incoming
calls to the SIP phone until the SIP phone registers with the Cisco Unified SIP SRST device. Cisco
Unified IP Phone 7940G and Cisco Unified IP Phone 7960G,l beginning with phone load
POS3-04-2-00.bin, are capable of dual registration of the phone’s primary phone line. Additional lines
are not registered by the phone for Cisco Unified SIP SRST. To enable dual registration for the primary
line, you must set backup proxy information such as proxy_backup
and proxy_backup_port
in the SIP
phone’s configuration file. For configuration instructions, see the Cisco SIP IP Phone 7960
Administrator Guide, Version 5.1.
Cisco Unified IP Phone 7905G, Cisco Unified IP Phone 7912G, and Cisco Analog Telephone Adaptor
(ATA) 186 are not capable of dual registration; thus they are not supported and have limited functionality
with Cisco Unified SIP SRST.
