About the Phone Assignments

• To help you choose an appropriate phone for each user, the description
includes the model and the number of buttons. If the phone has a Cisco
SPA500S expansion module, also known as an attendant console or side
car, the number of side car buttons also appears. Phone buttons and side
car buttons can be used for additional extensions, shared FXO (analog)
lines, and special features such as auto-dial (speed dial), call pickup, and
Busy Lamp Field (BLF). You assign the button functions on the Phone
Buttons page.
• For some phones, you may see a yellow circle containing a minus sign. The
icon indicates that the phone is not registered (does not have connectivity
to the Cisco UC320W). Possibly this phone record was added manually for
future use, or possibly the phone was disconnected but the record was not
removed. You can assign the phone to a user, but it is not operational.
• Users are entered on the Users page. A user record is required even for an
unstaffed phone, such as a phone in a lobby.
• You must make at least one phone assignment. Otherwise, an error
appears.

Managing Phone Assignments

You can use various methods to assign, reassign, or remove phones.
• Choose a phone from the drop-down list: Click the large down-arrow
button on the right end of the Assigned Phone slot, and then choose an
unassigned phone from the list.
• Drag and drop to assign an Unassigned Phone: To assign an Unassigned
Phone to a user, drag the phone to the empty slot next to the username.
When the slot is highlighted in green, release the mouse button. If the user
already had a phone assignment, the former phone is returned to the
Unassigned Phone list. (A warning appears if the new phone has fewer
phone buttons than are currently configured for the user.)
