Set up phones in proxy line mode for Cisco Unified Communications Manager Assistant

To prepare for configuring manager and assistant phones with Unified CM Assistant proxy line support, you

must complete the following tasks:

Procedure

Step 1

Set up and configure Unified CM Assistant requirements for your system. Cisco recommends that you use

the Cisco Unified CM Assistant Configuration Wizard. The wizard automatically creates the phone templates

for Unified CM Assistant manager and assistant, route points, partitions, translation patterns, and calling

search space for the Cisco Unified CM Assistant service. To run the Cisco Unified CM Assistant Configuration

Wizard, ensure BAT and the wizard are on the same server. Refer to theCisco Unified Communications

Manager Features and Services Guide for information about running the Cisco Unified CM Assistant

Configuration Wizard.

You can use the Cisco Unified CM Assistant Configuration Wizard only one time to set up the

Unified CM Assistant configuration requirements for your system. After running the configuration

wizard, you can only view, but not change, your configuration with the wizard.

Note

Step 2

To add new phones and users for managers and assistants, use the Unified CM Assistant manager and

Unified CM Assistant assistant phone templates that the Cisco Unified CM Assistant Configuration Wizard

produced on the BAT server. Use the BAT templates to configure phones for proxy mode only.

Step 3

For existing manager and assistant phones, you can change the manager and assistant phones to correspond

to the Unified CM Assistant phone templates by using either of these methods:

• You can use the Add Lines feature in BAT to modify existing phones to resemble the Unified CM

Assistant phone templates.

• You can delete the original phones and add new phones by using the Unified CM Assistant phone

templates for managers and assistants.

Step 4

After you configure the phones and lines for managers and assistants, you associate the manager and assistant

lines for Unified CM Assistant control.
