How to configure Cisco IP Phone without CUCM?

[dennislung]

Hi All

At first, I never use Cisco ip phone ever...

I just bought 2 used Cisco ip phone and already upgrade FW to ver. 9-4-2-SR3.

When I try to setting some configurations(some like disable LLDP, setting LLDP Power priority or QoS setting...),

it just can't be edit, even I was unlocked settings(**#).

I know this setting can change from Cisco Unified Communications Manager(CUCM), but I just can't download it...

So...is anyone can tell me how to setting this configurations without CUCM?

Start by telling us what the exact models of the phone.

7961G?
Do you have a VoIP service provider?

Hi Leo
I do have a Cisco L3 switch but is there any relations to VoIP service provider and the ip phone manually configuration?or the ip phone can't be manual setting because of my VoIP service setting goes wrong?

What's the objective if the phone gets configured and no one can even make/take any calls?
