Configuring Settings on the Cisco
Unified IP Phone
The Cisco Unified IP Phone includes many configurable network and device
settings that you may need to modify before the phone is functional for your users.
You can access these settings, and change many of them, through menus on the
phone.
This chapter includes the following topics:
• Configuration Menus on the Cisco Unified IP Phone 7970 Series, page 4-1
• Overview of Options Configurable from a Phone, page 4-5
• Network Configuration Menu, page 4-7
• Device Configuration Menu, page 4-15
Configuration Menus on the Cisco Unified IPP hone 7970 Series
The Cisco Unified IP Phone includes the following configuration menus:
• Network Configuration menu—Provides options for viewing and making a
variety of network settings. For more information, see the “Network
Configuration Menu” section on page 4-7.
• Device Configuration menu—Provides access to sub-menus from which you
can view a variety of non n etwork-related settings. F or more information, see
the “Device Configuration Menu” section on page 4-15.

Displaying a Configuration Menu
To display a configuration menu, perform the following steps.
Note You can control whether a phone has access to the Settings menu or to options on
this menu by using the Settings Access field in the Cisco Unified CallManager
Administration Phone Configuration page. The Settings Access field accepts
these values:
• Enabled—Allows access to the Settings menu.
• Disabled—Prevents access to the Settings menu.
• Restricted—Allows access to the User Preferences menu and allows volume
changes to be saved. Prevents access to other options on the Settings menu.
If you cannot access an option on the Settings menu, check the Settings Access
field. For more information, see Cisco Unified CallManager Administration
Guide.
