Interacting with Cisco Unified Communications Manager

Cisco Unified Communications Manager is the call control component in the network that handles and
routes calls for the wireless IP phones. Cisco Unified Communications Manager manages the
components of the IP telephony system—the phones, access gateways, and the resources—for such
features as call conferencing and route planning. When deploying Cisco Unified Wireless
IP Phone 7925G, you must use Cisco Unified Communications Manager Release 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 5.1,
6.0(1), 6.1(1) or 7.0(1) and SCCP protocol.
Before Cisco Unified Communications Manager can recognize a phone, it must register with Cisco
Unified Communications Manager and be configured in the database. For information about setting up
phones in Cisco Unified Communications Manager, see the
Cisco Unified Wireless IP Phone 7925G" section on page
You can find more information about configuring Cisco Unified Communications Manager to work with
the IP phones and IP devices in the Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration Guide and
Cisco Unified Communications Manager System Guide.

Phone Configuration Files and Profile Files

Configuration files for a phone define parameters for connecting to Cisco Unified Communications
Manager and are stored on the TFTP server. In general, any time you make a change in Cisco
Unified Communications Manager Administration that requires resetting the phone, the phone
configuration file changes automatically.
Configuration files also contain information about the correct image load for the phone. If this image
load differs from the one currently loaded on a phone, the phone contacts the TFTP server to request the
new image file.
The phone first requests the configuration file SEPxxxxxxxxxxxx.cnf.xml, where each xx is the two-digit
lowercase hexadecimal representation of each integer in the MAC address. If the phone cannot find this
file, it requests the configuration file XMLDefault.cnf.xml.
After the phone obtains the *.cnf.xml files, it requests a phone-specific profile file. If a phone cannot
find this profile file, it requests the appropriate common profile file.
After the phone finds one of the profile files, or if it cannot find a profile file, it continues with its startup
process.
