Do not configure auto answer for devices that have shared

Note
Auto Answer
From the drop-down list box, choose a default activated device for
this directory number. The selected device specifies the phone on
which this directory number is activated by default. The drop-down
list box lists only devices that support intercom.
You must specify a default activated device for this
intercom directory number to be active as an intercom line.
Note
If an intercom DN is specified in a device profile that is
configured for Cisco Extension Mobility, that intercom
DN will display as an intercom line only when a user logs
in to the specified default activated device by using that
device profile, as long as the device supports the intercom
feature.

Default Activated Device
Create phone CSV data file using BAT spreadsheet
You can add new phones or IP telephony devices to the system using the Microsoft Excel spreadsheet that
was designed for use with BAT. The BAT spreadsheet includes macros that automatically adjust the options
for the selected devices.
Use the BAT spreadsheet to create the CSV data file. You can define the file format within the spreadsheet,
and the BAT spreadsheet uses the data file formats to display the fields for the CSV data file.
If you enter a comma in one of the fields, BAT.xlt encloses that field entry in double quotes when you
export to BAT format.
If you enter a blank row in the BAT spreadsheet, the system treats the empty row as the end of the file
and does not convert data that is entered after a blank line to the BAT format.
Note
You can use the dummy MAC address option when adding CTI ports. This option gives a unique device name
to each CTI port in the form of dummy MAC addresses that you can manually update later using the Cisco
Unified Communications Manager Administration or the Unified CM Auto-Register phone Tool. Do not use
the dummy MAC address option for H.323 clients, VGC phones, or VGC virtual phones.
The dummy MAC address option automatically generates dummy MAC addresses in the following format:
XXXXXXXXXXXX
where X represents any 12-character, hexadecimal (0-9 and A-F) number.
