Some of the settings on a Cisco phone can only be configured directly at a phone and not on the phone's configuration page of Cisco CUCM. Some of the phone settings which can be only set at the phone are:
- Rings
- Ethernet
- Erase CTL/ITL files
- Background images
- Brightness and contrast.
With this feature, you can also:
- Send text messages to a group of phones, play alert tones and removes messages from the phone screen.
- Take screenshots of phone display.
- Change the ring tone.
If you have hundreds of thousands of phones, you will be glad to hear that this can be automated with the UPLINX Remote Phone Control Tool. First, you record a key sequence which then can be applied to a list of phones. Read more about Bulk Key/Command Macros.
The recorded key sequence to change the Cisco phone's configuration can then be applied to a list of phones. Easily select a single or group of phones to re-configure. The phone-group can be built based on device pool, model, extension range, location and phone description.
