Installing and Configuring Cisco IP Phone Productivity Services

Before you begin to install Cisco IP Phone Productivity Services, check that you have met the system requirements and that you have information needed for installation at hand. See the following sections:

Understanding the Role of Cisco IP Phone Productivity Services in the Cisco IP Telephony Network

Cisco IP Phone Productivity Services interact with many elements in your IP telephony network. Some network elements need to be informed of Cisco IP Phone Productivity Services presence; other elements only interact indirectly with Cisco IP Phone Productivity Services and do not require such information. Have a fully-functional voice-over-IP network in place before installing Cisco IP Phone Productivity Services in your telephony network.

Figure 2-1 shows Cisco IP Phone Productivity Services connection to the IP telephony network. Solid lines show that both Cisco IP Phone Productivity Services and the target system require configuration. Dotted lines indicate that only Cisco IP Phone Productivity Services require configuration. The arrows indicate whether communication is one way or two way.
