guess it has worked in previous versions, as it's been in the UCCX SRND for a while now, but perhaps there's some issues with it. I just wanted to add a story of success to this otherwise long thread of failures.<u></u><u></u></p>

<br>
Has anyone done a Agent with a hard phone over MRA (8865)? Finding<br>
the documents don't really come out and say if it is supported or not.<br>
See the notes about expressway versions and that is about it.<br>
<br>
How about extension mobility login on MRA hard phone for agent use?<br>
