Generating Audio Phone and Video Phone
Reports
An IP phone has a physical relationship with a switch and a logical relationship with a Cisco Unified
Communications Manager. Phone reports provide a combined view of both of these relationships,
making it easy for you to track and resolve IP phone and video phone problems. Operations Manager
collects phone inventory data as scheduled (see Working with IP Phone Discovery, page 16-40) and
collects additional data every 5 minutes to determine whether phone status has changed. Audio Phones
and Applications reports provide detailed phone inventory and status information. If you have the
required software license, you can also view similar reports for video phones.

Using Audio Phones and Applications Reports
Note Audio Phones and Applications reports do not include data for video phones. See Using Video Phones
Reports, page 13-28.
Audio Phones and Applications reports provide inventory and IP status change reports:
• Inventory reports—Provide detailed IP phone data, reflecting the current status of IP phones in your
network. These reports enable you to search for a few phones, list a specific set of phones—such as
phones connected to a switch, phones in SRST mode and phones that are CTI applications—or view
all phones and lines:
–
Search—Use Search to view information for a few IP phones or a single IP phone; search
enables you to find phones using all or part of an extension number, IP address, or MAC address.

Obtaining Usernames from LDAP for IP Phone Reports
Chapter 13 Generating Audio Phone and Video Phone Reports
Operations Manager can supply usernames on audio phone and video phone reports from a corporate
LDAP server when the LDAP server is:
• Configured with information for all users.
• Not a secure LDAP server (does not use SSL authentication).
• Added to Operations Manager with the correct credentials and appropriate telephone number. The
telephone number can be a phone number or a phone MAC address, depending on the LDAP
configuration.
Usernames are updated in Operations Manager when IP phone discovery runs. IP phone discovery
obtains users in the corporate directory that have the telephoneNumber attribute, and correlates data for
them with information in Cisco Unified Communications Manager.

page 13-19
• Cisco Wireless IP Phone 7920 Not Displayed in Audio Phones and Applications Reports,
page 13-19
• Phones Missing from Audio Phones and Applications Reports, page 13-19
N/A or Not Available Appears in Audio Phones and Applications Reports and Video Phone Reports
If N/A or Not Available appears instead of data in a field, it means one of the following:
• The switch or the Cisco Unified Communications Manager is not monitored by Operations Manager.
To correct this condition, add the switch or Cisco Unified Communications Manager to Operations
Manager.
• Operations Manager cannot get the information from the switch or the Cisco Unified
Communications Manager. To correct this condition, check the status of the switch or Cisco Unified
Communications Manager in the Alerts and Events display. If the switch or Cisco Unified
Communications Manager is unreachable, ensure that the connectivity is restored.
• For Audio Phones and Applications reports, if the phone is a Cisco Wireless IP Phone 7920, only
logical information from Cisco Unified Communications Manager is displayed. Switch information
is not available.
Cisco Wireless IP Phone 7920 Not Displayed in Audio Phones and Applications Reports
For the Cisco Wireless IP Phone 7920 to be monitored in Operations Manager, its Aironet access point
must also be monitored by Operations Manager. Only logical information from the Cisco Unified
Communications Manager is displayed for this phone; switch information for the 7920 appears as N/A
or Not Available.
In Cisco Unified Communications Manager releases prior to 4.0, the 7920 appears as a 7960. Therefore,
Operations Manager also displays the 7920 as a 7960 for Cisco Unified Communications Manager
releases prior to 4.0.
Note IP Phone Outage Status reports, such as IP Phone Audit and Suspect Phone reports, are not
supported for the Cisco Wireless IP Phone 7920.
Phones Missing from Audio Phones and Applications Reports
If a report does not contain information about an IP phone, the phone might be one of the following:
• A synthetic phone—IP phones configured for synthetic tests (synthetic phones) do not appear in
Audio Phones and Applications reports.
• An IP Communicator—Generate the IP Communicator Report. See Generating the IP
Communicators Report, page 13-9.
• A CTI application—These phones appear on the All CTI Applications report. See Generating the

Using IP Phone Outage Status Changes Reports
IP Phone Outage Status reports supply information for phones that have undergone a status change
during the previous 1 to 30 days.
The IP Phone Audit report provides a summary of all of these changes (see Using the IP Phone Audit

Understanding the Time Period Covered by Phone Status Changes Reports
When you generate an IP Phone Outage Status or Video Phone Status Changes report, your results can
be affected by the time zones in which each of following resides:
• Your client system—Operations Manager calculates the time period (previous 24 hours through
previous 7 to 30 days, depending on the report) for Phone Status Changes reports based on the date
and time on your client system.
• Operations Manager system—Operations Manager records some audits, such as extension number
changes, based on the time that the change is detected on the Operations Manager system.
• Cisco Unified Communications Manager—Operations Manager records some audits, such as phone
moves, based on the time on Cisco Unified Communications Manager that changes were detected.
If any of these systems is not in the same time zone as your system, you must take the time zone
difference into account when you generate and view Phone Status Changes reports.
13-20
Tip If the audit date and time on the Operations Manager system is inconsistent with those shown in the IP
Phone Outage Status or Video Phone Status Changes report, make sure that all Cisco Unified
Communications Managers in the network are set to synchronize.

Chapter 13 Generating Audio Phone and Video Phone Reports
Using Audio Phones and Applications Reports
Tracking Phone Outage Status when a Cisco Unified Communications Manager Is Down
If a Cisco Unified Communications Manager that is configured with a backup goes down, audio phones
and video phones fail over to the backup Cisco Unified Communications Manager. Operations Manager
stores audit records for the phones that register with the backup and these status changes are included in
IP Phone Outage Status and Video Phone Status Changes reports.
Operations Manager does not store audit records in the following cases:
• An entire Cisco Unified Communications Manager cluster goes down.
• A Cisco Unified Communications Manager for which a backup is not configured goes down.
Therefore, status changes for the phones registered to Cisco Unified Communications Managers in these
situations are not included in IP Phone Outage Status and Video Phone Status Changes reports.
Note During the time that Cisco Unified Communications Manager is down, affected phones are listed on the
IP Phone Outage Status Monitoring Dashboard where they remain for a minimum of 24 hours. See
Getting Phone Alert Details, page 5-4.
Using the IP Phone Move Report
The IP Phone Move report displays IP phones that have moved, including details about the phone before
and after the move. The IP Phone Move report shows the time at which the IP phone move was detected,
and not the time at which the move occurred.
Information for the IP Phone Move report is gathered every 5 minutes by IP Phone Movement Tracking
(see Understanding IP Phone Movement Tracking, page 13-28). IP Phone Movement Tracking checks
all the switches and Cisco Unified Communications Managers, identifies the list of changes, and
generates the data on IP phone moves.
Note You obtain fresh data for the IP Phone Move report about once every 5 minutes. Close the report and
regenerate it to refresh the data.
Step 1 Select Reports > Audio Phones and Applications > IP Phone Status Changes > IP Phone Move. The
IP Phone Status reports page appears.

Using the IP Phone Audit Report
The IP Phone Audit report shows the changes that have occurred in the managed IP phone network. For
example, this report shows you the IP phones that have been added to or deleted from your network, or
IP phone Outage status. Phone status changes occur, for instance, when a phone becomes unregistered
with the Cisco Unified Communications Manager.
You can see what has changed within the last 30 days. Audits are maintained in the database for a period
of 30 days, after which they are purged.
Information for the IP Phone Audit report is gathered by IP Phone Movement Tracking (see
Understanding IP Phone Movement Tracking, page 13-28). IP Phone Movement Tracking runs every 5
minutes, so you can run the IP Phone Audit report and obtain fresh data about once every 5 minutes. This
interval is not configurable.

Generating the Video Phone Inventory Analysis Report
Use Inventory Analysis to search for video phones in your network and display them in a report.
Before You Begin
Inventory Analysis searches for phones using:
• An implicit “or” within each field—If you enter more than one value in a field, Inventory Analysis
searches for phones that match any value that you entered.
• An implicit “and” for all fields—If you enter values in more than one field, Inventory Analysis
searches for phones that match at least one value from each field.
For example, if you enter two video phone models in the Video Phone Model field, the Inventory
Analysis report that results includes all phones of these models. If, in addition, you enter a VLAN ID
and a switch, Inventory Analysis searches for phones that meet all these criteria; the report that results
includes only phones of the models specified that are connected to the switch and in the VLAN that you
selected.

network. For example, this report shows you the video phones that have been added to or deleted from
your network, or changes in video phone status. Phone status changes occur, for instance, when a phone
becomes unregistered with the Cisco Unified Communications Manager.
You can see what has changed within the last 30 days. Audits are maintained in the database for a period
of 30 days, after which they are purged.
Information for the Video Phone Audit report is gathered by IP Phone Movement Tracking (see
Understanding IP Phone Movement Tracking, page 13-28). IP Phone Movement Tracking runs every
5 minutes, so you can run the Video Phone Audit Detail report and obtain fresh data about once every
