Configuring Phones with the Web Interface
The Cisco Unified Wireless IP Phone 7921G has an HTTPS enabled web interface that can be accessed via the 802.11a/b/g
radio or USB.
If using USB, then set a static IP on the PC’s USB network interface (i.e. 192.168.1.X /24). By default, the Cisco Unified
Wireless IP Phone 7921G USB is statically set to 192.168.1.100 /24.
In order to make configuration changes via the web interface, then web access must be set to “Full”, which will also enable a
few additional menus.
Log into the administration web pages by using these defaults:
username = “admin” / password = “Cisco”
Note: It is not recommended to use the 192.168.1.0 /24 network for the wireless LAN interface as that network is used by the
USB interface by default. If wanting to use the 192.168.1.0 /24 network for the wireless LAN, then either change the USB IP
address on the phone or do not charge the phone via USB.

Configuring the Network Profile Parameters
Use the following guidelines to configure network profiles.
• The Cisco Unified Wireless IP Phone 7921G supports multiple network profiles that allow one SSID per network
profile. 0 length SSIDs are not allowed.
• 5 different 802.11 modes are available.
 Auto-RSSI
 802.11a
 802.11b/g
 Auto-a
 Auto-b/g
• As of the 1.3(3) release, Auto-a is the default 802.11 mode, so it will scan both 2.4 and 5 GHz channels and attempt to
on the 5 GHz band if the configured network is available.
• In previous releases, the Cisco Unified Wireless IP Phone 7921G would default to Auto-RSSI mode, which would
attempt to associate to the access point with the strongest signal.
