The poster probably got this from the IPTNetworkers forum where I posted this information in a duplicate thread he started, so I'll copy my reply here:

You were a little light on details as to why you can't use devicelistx.asp. If you're unable to call HTTP-based methods against your CallManager, you're out of luck with devicelistx.asp and AXL both, so you would have to use [J]TAPI or something similar.
If you're okay with HTTP and some light XML parsing, try this on for size:
http://your.callmanager.net/ccmadmin/getdeviceip.asp?devicename=SEP00059A3C7800
It should return a response that looks something like this:
or an appropriate error if the device was not found or you messed up the syntax. The response status relates to whether it was found in the database only, not whether the device is registered (CallManager will remember the device's last IP while running). If your problem with devicelistx.asp was that it didn't show all phones without hacking it up, hopefully this will help. I don't think you're even limited to looking up phones with this. If you need a device listing first to go fishing for device names, use /ccmadmin/numplandump.asp.
Some caveats: I know of no documentation or support for this interface, I've just stumbled across it in the past. It may tear up your homework, eat your goldfish or insult your mother. Do not fold, spindle or mutilate. No warranties, express or implied. May not perform correctly with your version of CallManager or may not even be present.
If this isn't what you're looking for, you need to be clearer about what you are looking for.
