The Cisco Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) IP Phone 7960 Administrator Guide provides information about how to setup, connect cables to, and configure a Cisco SIP IP phone 7960 (hereafter referred to as a Cisco SIP IP phone). The administrator guide also provides information on how to configure the network and SIP settings and change the settings and options of the Cisco SIP IP phone. The administrator guide also includes reference information such as Cisco SIP IP phone call flows and compliance information.
Network engineers, system administrators, or telecommunication engineers should use this guide to learn the steps required to properly set up the Cisco SIP IP phone on the network.
The tasks described are considered to be administration-level tasks and are not intended for end-users of the phones. Many of the tasks involve configuring network settings which could affect the phone's ability to function in the network and require an understanding of IP networking and telephony concepts.
