Phone Migration using BAT

[vinojesh1994]

Can you guys tell me what is the diff. between phone migration and update phones??

Phone migration is when you want your SCCP phones to migrate to SIP phones.

Phone update is when you want to update a phone configuration like for example changing the device profile

If the phone migration is for SCCP to SIP, can't we change the phone configuration(CSS,Location,Region and so on) while migration.

In Phone migration, it only change the protocol from SCCP to SIP. There is no option to chnage any otrher paramter of phone.

If you wan to chnage other parameters of phone you can use BAT tool.

Hi Vinoth,

Just a little FYI here

You can also use the Phone Migration feature in Cisco Unified Communications Manager

Bulk Administration Tool to migrate phones from one type to another in bulk.For example

let's say you had deployed 200 7940 phones and you wanted to replace them all with

newer 7945 phones. You can also use this tool to help perform this migration. Pretty handy!
