<div dir="ltr">Forgive my ignorance here, since I do not do day 2 ops work often (thus quick add's set backs are not top of mind), I mostly focus on new deployments, which typically involve BAT, so what is the trouble/uniqueness in Jabber CSF devices versus a physical phone? Also, how come Option A doesn't mention the Jabber piece? Is that implied that you would come back around and add Jabber afterwards, like you would do in option B, post DN add?</div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Wed, Jul 1, 2020 at 1:07 PM Lelio Fulgenzi <<a href="mailto:lelio@uoguelph.ca">lelio@uoguelph.ca</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><br>
Hello all. Looking for feedback and opinions and caveats. <br>
<br>
Right now, we’re deploying Jabber only to those with phones/DNs. But, we need to start deploying Jabber for those individuals without phones/DNs. <br>
<br>
Our SOPs include using Quick Add feature. (Thanks a million time Brian Meade for the pointer). <br>
<br>
My choices so far, to address Jabber for new those without phones:<br>
<br>
(a) Create a fake hardware phone first. This has many benefits, namely, all SOPs remain the same. Hardware phone would be deleted afterwards. <br>
<br>
(b) Use Directory Number admin page to create/update a DN first, then use Quick Add page to assign DN to user accordingly and then click manage devices and follow remaining SOP steps. <br>
<br>
(c) create line templates and use those when creating new extensions under quick add. The issue with this is we have so many combinations, I’d need a lot of templates. <br>
<br>
I’m leaning towards (b), since it gives me the best of both worlds. <br>
<br>
Thoughts? <br>
