For Cisco Unified SIP IP phones, the administrator uses dial rules to configure
SIP phone dial plans. These dial plans must be associated with a SIP phone device
to enable dial plans to be sent to the configuration file. If the administrator does
not configure a SIP phone dial plan, the phone does not display any indication of
a dial plan.
For more information on configuring SIP dial rules, refer to the Cisco Unified
Communications Manager Administration Guide.
When connecting to the VoIP network, the Cisco Unified IP Phone go through a
standard startup process that is described in

The Cisco Unified IP Phone has non-volatile
Flash memory in which it stores firmware

phone image stored in Flash memory. Using this
image, the phone initializes its software and
