When you install CIPC SW on your client PC, you have the phone load. You configure its TFTP server as 10.1.1.1 and you are ready to rock and roll.
In this example, I am running CIPC version 7.0.2.0 (you will notcie that in the terminal monitor display below when it registers)
The PC can then be connected one of two ways:
- locally on the data VLAN of the UC520
- via the VPN Server of the UC520 (using the Cisco VPN Client when PC is remote)
When connecting to the CME device (in our case running on UC520) it will ask for its Configuration File.
You will see the name SEPxxxxxxxxxxxx, which is Skinny Enp Point <MAC of your PC>
When you open CCA, you will see the Phone Type CIPC and notice the MAC Address of the PC Interface use for the connection.
Now you would configure it as any other phone. CIPC button behavior is like the 7970 in terms of button support.
Topology view:
But getting back to this SEP Config file, the file it looks for on the UC520 isnt on Flash:...
When it doesnt find it, it goes for the default file in System:/ITS:
You can see this by opening a SSH session to the UC520 and turning on debugging for TFTP Events and TFTP Packets.

Thats all it really needs and configuration is then done using CCA and saved in the running-config and start-up config the next time you 'wr mem' or SAVE in the CCA toolbar.
Just posted a note on how to configure shared extension with CIPC and another IP phone using CCA 2.0.
