[cisco-voip] Ringtones

[Joe Halenkamp - JHH]

     Unless I am mistaken, there is nothing in Call Manager to change a
ringtone for 50 telephones in a specific group.  You will need to touch
each phone.  However, I worked with a developer recently concerning our
Disaster preparedness with Cisco VoIP.  What he was able to do was pull
IP addresses from the call manager and push a specific Ring tone to a
selected group of phones by using the device pool, along with a image
that displays on the phone, alerting anyone of an emergency. This helps
in case of Lockdown-fire or a tornado to alert local and remote staff of
imending emergencies.   So it is doable, but you would need a developer.

I gave the IP Phone SDK a glance and didn't see anything relevant to
setting ringtones. Also, I don't believe the ringtone settings are done
in the TFTP cnf file, I believe they are stored locally on the phone.

No I am not wanting to add a ringtone. I want to set a ringtone on the
second line for about 50 phones. I don't want to go to the phones and
set it manually.

Are regarding where to add the Ringtones in the TFTP service?

 

If that is the case you would configure the secondary extensions in the:
DistinctiveRingList.xml and upload it to the CCM, that is depending on
what version CallManager you have.  

 

Hope this helps.

Does anyone know of a utility to set the ring tone for the second line
of each phone by the administrator? I can't use phone designer for this
it only sets the default.
