I want to set up a cordless phone (CP 8821) with the USB Dongle and the Desktop Charger as described here

It always assigns the wlan settings to the first wifi profile in the phone.

How to have cucm assigning the wlan settings to a specific wifi profile in the phone ?

I have never done that, but probably you have to add multiple Wifi profiles and then add them in your specific order in the WLAN group.
But I guess, it will always overwrite the profile(s), that you added manually or via the dongle on the phone.

Or you have to add multiple profiles via the phone admin page:

In CUCM admin --> devices --> device settings --> wireless lan profile
And then assign the Wifi profile to the device

That's exactly what I did. But once it's assigned, it overwrites the existed 1st profile on the phone.

On the phone there are 4 possible profiles, as shown in the picture.

I want to push the settings to the 2nd profile on the phone.

the phone admin web page seems a good option for setting a second wifi profile manually. Thank you !

No, cucm overwrites only the first wifi profile on the phone, if there is only 1 wlan profile assigned in cucm. if there are two, it will overwrite the first two on the phone and so forth.
