Aliasing 9600 Series IP Telephones

Communication Manager releases earlier than 4.0 do not provide native support for 96xx IP Telephones. On the Station Form, administer (alias) the telephones as follows:

Change Alias Station:

• Alias set up type 9610 to a 4610
• Alias set up type 9620 to a 4610
• Alias set up type 9630/9630G to a 4620SW/4621SW
• Alias set up type 9640/9640G to a 4620SW/4621SW
• Alias set up type 9650 to a 4620SW/4621SW

Communication Manager release 4.0 (and later) provides native support for the 9610, 9620, 9630/9630G, 9640/9640G, and 9650. Softphone is currently not supported using native support of the 96xx phones.

NOTE: Call appearances are not configurable for native support of the 9610 in CM 4.0. Care should be taken when aliasing the 9610 as a 4610, since the call appearances are configurable but must adhere to the unique 9610 administrative guidelines found in For the 9610 IP Telephone and Special Administration for the 9610 IP Telephone.
