Configuring Phone Button Templates
If you create a template for a Cisco Unified IP Phone, you can change the default template for that phone
during auto-registration. See the
“Updating Device Defaults” section on page 94-2.
Before You Begin
If you are creating a custom, nonstandard phone button template, refer to the guidelines for creating new
phone button templates. See the
“Guidelines for Customizing Phone Button Templates” section in the
Cisco Unified Communications Manager System Guide.

Configuration page displays. In the Button Template Name field, enter the new name. Click Save.
The template redisplays with the new name.
