Adding a Phone Service
To access phone service administration, open Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration
and choose Device > Device Settings > Phone Services:
The Cisco Unified Services Configuration page in Cisco Unified Communications Manager
Administration contains the fields as shown in
Table 9-1.
Table 9-1 IP Phone Service Configuration Settings
Field Description
Service Information
Service Name Enter the name of the service as it will display on the menu of available
services in Cisco Unified CM User Options. Enter up to 32 characters
for the service name.
ASCII Service Name Enter the name of the service to display if the phone cannot display
Unicode.
Service Description Enter a description of the content that the service provides.
Service URL Enter the URL of the server where the IP phone services application is
located. Make sure that this server remains independent of the servers
in your Cisco Unified Communications Manager cluster. Do not
specify a Cisco Unified Communications Manager server or any server
that is associated with Cisco Unified Communications Manager (such
as a TFTP server or directory database publisher server).
For the services to be available, the phones in the Cisco Unified
Communications Manager cluster must have network connectivity to
the server.
When defining the service URL, you can embed a special
#DEVICENAME# substitution tag within the URL. This tag provides
a convenient method for IP phones to pass their device name to a web
application server. For example, if a service URL was defined in Cisco
Unified Communications Manager Admin as:
http://myserver/myscript?name=#DEVICENAME# , when a phone
actually makes the HTTP request for the service, the requested URL
will appear as:
http://myserver/myscript?name=SEP000123456789
