Here's a link to instructions on how to enable this on the navigation/one touch panel which I believe you referred to as a tablet:

In addition, there was a community post about a year ago with some additional information that might help:

Our company internally uses Teams, and it is important to us that it is possible to schedule a meeting in the hall through Teams.

The offer states that Microsoft Teams Native can come with the following questions:

Does it use a Microsoft Teams account then the board?
Is it possible to directly start a meeting from a tablet?

Since you want to use Cisco devices with MS Teams, this deployment guide should help you @Stefan Mihajlov .

Hello need some help:

Scenario 1:
If I start a Teams meeting on my laptop using the laptop's camera and microphone, pressing Win + K to connect to the board will share only the screen to the board, while the peripherals (camera and microphone) will remain on the laptop.
Scenario 2:
If the Teams meeting is started directly on the board using the control tablet, then the meeting runs natively on the board.
Starting a Teams call from the control tablet should not be an issue. However, if someone attending the meeting wants to share their screen during the active session, they will need to join the meeting from their laptop using their account, and that should work seamlessly.

Regarding the Cisco Room Bar Pro: (https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/collaboration-endpoints/webex-room-series/room-bar-pro-ds.html#Orderinginformation)
The key question is whether the Cisco Room Scheduler (the small tablet placed outside the room for scheduling meetings) is mandatory, or if we can use 2N instead.
It's also crucial to highlight that we will be using Microsoft Teams Native, as the company operates on Teams.
