Hi net,

Use BAT feature to achive this.
Please login into CUCM pub and follow this youtube video

 

Instead of phone mac use below device name :

For Android - bat123456

For Window - csf123456

Please rate useful comment.

"BOT" not "BAT" for an android device.



Just follow the documentation since it will answer questions about the software, configuration, and limitations that you will have otherwise.


I will try this option
but after adding device I ahve do add also the user association with the device

Correction: for android use BOT123456
.
You can add userid in bat.xml only so no need to associate but in end user you have to assign them presence profile if not assigned earlier .

For your info you can assign presence profile in bulk also ...

If you have time for AXL (look at the AXL cookbook on dev net) if you feel comfortable with programming or have a resource



With AXL you can make an "addPhone" call to insert the Jabber client with the descriptions, lines, userIDs, vendor config including the cisco support field for group config, etc.



You can then run a get user to get the end user and their list of associated devices, and update user and simply append the deviecs to the user's list of associated deviecs.



You can also use the quick user/phone add function in the UCM to do this. Build universal template and you can build the Jabber CSF clients by simply grabbing the user, click manage devices, click add device, then fill in the name type, template and hit add. It builds it all with the template for you. Does association, presence, etc.



It will not do the custom field like cisco support field etc but Jabber CSF devices will respect the common phone profile.
