Cisco Unified IP Phone 7906G and 7911G Administration Guide for Cisco
Unified Communications Manager 6.1 provides the information you need to
understand, install, configure, manage, and troubleshoot the
Cisco Unified IP Phones 7906G and 7911G in a Voice-over-IP (VoIP) network.
Because of the complexity of a Unified Communications network, this guide does
not provide complete and detailed information for procedures that you need to
perform in Cisco Unified Communications Manager (formerly Cisco Unified
CallManager) or other network devices. See the “Related Documentation” section
on page xv for a list of related documentation.
Audience

and affect the phone ability to function in the network.
Because of the close interaction between the Cisco Unified IP Phone and
Cisco Unified Communications Manager, many of the tasks in this manual
require familiarity with Cisco Unified Communications Manager.
