Convert Cisco IP-Phone from SIP to Skinny (SCCP) and reverse

I have often been asked for a quick way to convert a Cisco IP-Phone between SIP and SCCP. People get their IP-Phones often from E-Bay or other 2nd hand resource for testing and practicing and they may receive them with the ”other” phone load they didn’t want. The easiest way to convert is via Autoregistration. With CME this is a litle more complex, but with UCM (v6 or higher) this is an easy task.
First of all, switch on Autoregistration. If you need help with that, there is another post by Brandon in this blog how to switch on Autoregistration.

Changes to GlobalConfig.net

I want to take a minute to address the over 450 subscribers here at GlobalConfig.net.  Over a year ago when I started blogging I was primarily about my CCIE Studies.  Now that I have passed the CCIE Security I am on to the R&S and Voice, kinda at the same time.  With that, work, and family it’s been difficult to bring you fresh, useful content.  That’s all about to change.
Here are the changes to the blog that I believe will make it a better resource for you:

The Domain Changed to http://www.ascoltablogs.com.  The old URL will still work- but…

Configuring Auto-Registration in CUCM7

With CUCM you can auto-register phones provided a simple configuration is in place.  While this is not rocket science it’s nice to have the walkthrough to look back on so here it goes.
Ensure that the Cisco CallManager service is enabled by going to Cisco Unified Serviceability then select Tools>Service Activation and ensure that the Call Manager Service is enabled.

Uploaded with plasq’s Skitch!

Next go to Cisco Unified CM Administration and select System>Cisco Unified CM
Once there you should notice that the default configuration has auto-registration disabled.

While auto-registration is disabled the phone will cycle…

Cisco Unity Tools
Came across this while reading the CIPT1 book by Dennis Hartmann. There is much more here than I will need right now since Unity is covered in little detail in CIPT1, however I think its a great resource to have around. Interesting that its kinda "outside" of the Cisco.com domain.
