end users.
Cisco recommends that you create a web page on your internal support site that provides end users with
important information about their Cisco Unified IP Phones.

How Users Obtain Support for the Cisco Unified IP Phone
To successfully use some of the features on the Cisco Unified IP Phone (including speed dial, services,
and voice messaging system options), users must receive information from you or from your network
team or be able to contact you for assistance. Make sure to provide end users with the names of people
to contact for assistance and with instructions for contacting those people.
Giving Users Access to the User Options Web Pages
Before a user can access the User Options web pages, you must use Cisco Unified Communications
Manager Administration to add the user to a standard Cisco Unified Communications Manager end user
group: choose User Management > User Groups. For additional information, see:
