Telephony Features Available for the Phone
Remote Port
Configuration
Allows the administrator to configure the speed
and duplex function of the phone Ethernet ports
remotely by using Cisco Unified CM
Administration. This enhances the performance for
large deployments with specific port settings.
Note If the ports are configured for Remote Port
Configuration in Cisco Unified CM, the
data cannot be changed on the phone.
To configure the parameter in the Cisco
Unified CM Administration application,
choose Device > Phone, select the
appropriate IP phones, and scroll to the
Product Specific Configuration Layout pane
(Switch Port Remote Configuration or PC
Port Remote Configuration).
To configure the setting on multiple phones
simultaneously, configure the Remote Port
Configuration in the Enterprise Phone
Configuration (System > Enterprise Phone
Configuration).
Ring setting Identifies ring type used for a line when a phone
has another active call.
For more information refer to:
• Cisco Unified Communications Manager
Administration Guide, Directory Number
Configuration.
• Creating Custom Phone Rings, page 6-2.
Ringer Volume Control The Ringer Volume Control feature enables the
system administrator to control the minimum
ringer-volume setting and adjust the minimum
volume level for the ringer. Individual users cannot
make the changes to the minimum ringer-volume
setting.
When a user presses the minus (–) side of the
Volume button to reduce the ringer volume in an
on-hook state, the volume decreases only to the
configured minimum volume-level setting. When
the minimum volume level is reached, no status
message appears.
After a system restart, the minimum ringer volume
resets to the minimum ringer-volume setting that is
received from the configuration file. If the system
administrator configured a new minimum volume
level since the last startup and the end user had
previously set the minimum ringer volume lower,
the ringer volume will be set to the minimum value
from the configuration file, not to the user’s setting.
This feature does not apply to handset, speaker, and
headset volumes during calls.
To configure the parameter in the Cisco
Unified CM Administration application,
choose Device > Phone, select the
appropriate IP phones, and scroll to the
Product Specific Configuration Layout pane.
