Cisco Unified IP Conference Phone 8831 Installation
After you have added the phone to the Cisco Unified Communications Manager database, you can complete
the installation. The conference phone can be installed at the user's location either by you, or by the user.
After the conference phone connects to the network, the conference phone startup process begins and the
conference phone registers with Cisco Unified Communications Manager. To finish installing the conference
phone, configure the network settings on the conference phone depending on whether you want to enable or
disable DHCP service.
If you used autoregistration, you need to update the specific configuration information for the conference
phone such as associating the conference phone with a user, changing the button table, or directory number.
Note
Upgrade the conference phone with the current firmware image before you install the phone. For information
about upgrading, see the Readme file for the conference phone.
The conference phone supports seamless firmware upgrades. For instructions on upgrading the firmware, see
