If you have a Cisco IP Phone connected to your network and use the Cisco CallManager software, your phone actually runs a small embedded server that can be contacted to initiate a call (among other things). If this is the case, JPT can communicate with your Cisco IP Phone to use it as a Dial Method.

The information required for using a Cisco IP Phone as your Dial Method is fairly straight-forward. The username, password, and IP address are all configured using the Cisco CallManager software. For more information, please see the documentation that came with your phone or contact your phone system administrator. If you are not using the latest version of the CallManager software, your phone may ignore the “Priority” setting and attempt to dial the number passed from JPT immediately.

As with other internet connections, your system may require the connection to the Cisco IP Phone to be routed through a proxy server (the connection is a standard HTTP connection). If you need to use a proxy server, JPT will read the proxy information from your Network preferences. However, if a username and password is required for your setup, you will need to enter it in JPT each time you launch the application. You can do this by clicking the “Proxy Settings...” button. For more information, see the “Proxies” help section.
