CHAPTER 40
UDP generation
This chapter provides information to use Cisco Unified Communications Manager Bulk Administration
(BAT) to set up extension mobility quickly by generating and inserting profiles for all IP phone users. BAT
generates user device profiles for all phones, regardless of the number of devices that the user controls. For
example, if a user controls two devices, BAT generates two separate user device profiles, one for each device
and associates them to the same user. BAT sets one of the generated user device profiles as the default user
device profile for the user. BAT generates user device profiles for all IP phones based on the phone button
template for each phone model.
You do not use a user device profile template or a CSV data file to perform this action. When BAT
generates these user device profiles, they are associated with the user.

Insert user device profiles for user devices
You can generate user device profiles for all users.
When you are inserting a file that was generated with the export utility, the export utility appends a numerical
suffix_n for each line that is configured on a phone. For example, an export file with the name
“sales_7960_1_3.txt” indicates that all phone records in this file have lines 1 and 3 configured. Use the
appended suffixes to guide you in choosing a phone template with the correct line configuration during the
UDP profile insertion.
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.
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.
