(Optional) Assigns a locale identifier to the locale code. Range is 0 to 4. Default is 0.

user-defined code

(Optional) Assigns one of the user-defined codes to the specified locale code. Valid codes are U1, U2, U3, U4, and U5. There is no default.

locale-code

Locale files for the following ISO 3166 codes are predefined in system storage for supported phone types:

AT—Austria

CA—Canada

CH—Switzerland

DE—Germany

DK—Denmark

ES—Spain

FR—France

GB—United Kingdom

12.2(11)YT

Cisco ITS 2.1

This command was introduced.

12.2(15)T

Cisco ITS 2.1

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(15)T.

12.4(4)XC

Cisco Unified CME 4.0

The network-locale-tag and user-defined-code arguments were added.

12.4(9)T

Cisco Unified CME 4.0

The network-locale-tag and user-defined-code arguments were integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.4(9)T.


Usage Guidelines

The show telephony-service tftp-bindings command displays the locale-specific call-progress tone files that are accessible to IP phones using TFTP.

This command must be followed by a complete phone reboot using the reset command.

Network locale 0 always holds the default locale, which is used for all phones that are not assigned alternative network locales or user-defined network locales. The system default is US, but you can define a different code to be the default, as shown in the " Examples" section.

Alternative Network Locales

The network-locale-tag argument allows you to specify up to five alternative network locales for use in a system using Cisco Unified CME 4.0 or a later release. For example, a company can specify network-locale France for phones A, B, and C; network-locale Germany for phones D, E, and F; and network-locale United States for phones G, H, and I.

Each one of the five alternative network locales that you can use in a multi-locale system is identified with a locale tag identifier. The identifier 0 always holds the default locale, although you can define this default to be any locale code that is supported in the system and is listed in the CLI help for the command. For example, if you define network locale 0 to be JP (Japanese), the default network locale for the router is JP. If you do not specify a locale for the identifier 0, the default is US (United States).

To apply alternative network locales to different phones, you must use the cnf-files command to specify per-phone configuration files. When you use per-phone configuration files, a phone's configuration file automatically uses the default locales in user locale 0 and network locale 0. You can override this default for individual ephones by assigning alternative locale tag identifiers to the alternative locale codes that you want to use and then creating ephone templates to assign the locale tag identifiers to individual ephones. For example, you can give the alternative locale tag of 2 to the locale code DK (Denmark).

After using the network-locale (telephony-service) command to associate a locale tag identifier with a locale code, use the network-locale command in ephone-template mode to apply the locale tag to an ephone template. Then use the ephone-template command in ephone configuration mode to apply the template to the ephones that should use the alternative network locale. For an example, see the Alternative Network Locale Example.

User-Defined Network Locales

XML files for user locales and network locales that are not currently provided in the system must be downloaded to use this feature. Beginning in Cisco Unified CME 4.0, you can install the files to support a particular user and network locale in flash, slot 0, or an external TFTP server. You cannot install these files in the system location. These user-locale and network-locale files can then be used as default or alternative locales for all or some phones.

For example, if you have a site at which the phones should use the displays and tones for Traditional Chinese, which is not one of the predefined locales, you must download and install the XML files for Traditional Chinese on the phones that need to use this locale.

Examples

The following example sets the default locale tag 0 to France:

telephony-service
 network-locale FR

The following example sets the default locale tag 0 to France. It shows another way to change the default network locale:

telephony-service
 network-locale 0 FR

The following example sets the alternative locale tag 1 to Germany:

telephony-service
 network-locale 1 DE

Alternative Network Locale Example

The following example defines three alternative locales: JP (Japan), FR (France), and ES (Spain). The default is US for all phones that do not have the alternatives applied using ephone templates. In this example, ephone 11 uses JP for its locales, ephone 12 uses FR, ephone 13 uses ES, and ephone 14 uses the default, US.

User-Defined Network Locale Example

The following example applies the alternative locale tag 4 to the user-defined code U1, which is defined as ZH. ZH is the code that represents Traditional Chinese in ISO 639, the Language Code Reference. Because the code for Traditional Chinese is not one of those is provided in the system, the user must download the appropriate XML files to support this language.

In addition to the user-defined code, the example also defines three alternative locales: JP (Japan), FR (France), and ES (Spain). The default is US for all phones that do not have the alternatives applied using ephone templates. In this example, ephone 11 uses JP for its locales; ephone 12 uses FR; ephone 13 uses ES; ephone 14 uses the default, US; and ephone 15 uses the user-defined language, ZH (Traditional Chinese).

Usage Guidelines

When an ephone-dn is marked for night-service treatment using the night-service bell (ephone-dn) command, incoming calls that ring during the night-service time period on that ephone-dn send an alert indication to all IP phones that are marked to receive night-service bell notification with this command. The alert notification is in the form of a splash ring (not associated with any of the individual lines on the IP phone) and a visible display of the ephone-dn extension number. The phone user retrieves the call by pressing a PickUp or GPickUp soft key and dialing the appropriate digits.

Night-service periods are defined using the night-service date and night-service day commands. Night service can be manually disabled or reenabled from a phone configured with ephone-dns in night-service mode if the night-service code command has been set.

If you use an ephone template to apply a command to a phone and you also use the same command in ephone configuration mode for the same phone, the value that you set in ephone configuration mode has priority.

Examples

The following example designates the IP phone that is being configured as a phone that will receive night-service bell notification when ephone-dns marked for night service receive incoming calls during a night-service period:

Router(config)# ephone 4
Router(config-ephone)# night-service bell

12.3(4)T

3.0

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.3(4)T.


Usage Guidelines

This command defines a valid number for an ephone-dn (extension) that is to be assigned to an IP phone. The secondary keyword allows you to associate a second telephone number with an ephone-dn so that it can be called by dialing either the main or secondary phone number. The secondary number may contain wildcards; for example, 50.. (the number 50 followed by periods, which stand for wildcards).

The no-reg keyword causes an E.164 number in the dial peer not to register with the gatekeeper. If you do not specify both or primary after the no-reg keyword, only the secondary number does not register.

A number normally contains only numeric characters, which allow it to be dialed from any telephone keypad. However, in certain cases, such as intercom numbers, which are normally dialed only by the router, you can insert alphabetic characters into the number to prevent phone users from dialing it and using the intercom function without authorization.

A number can also contain one or more periods (.) as wildcard characters that will match any dialed number in that position. For example, 51.. rings when 5100 is dialed, when 5101 is dialed, and so forth.

After you use the number command, assign the ephone-dn to an ephone using the button command. Following the use of the button command, the restart command must be used to initiate a quick reboot of the phone to which this number is assigned.

Examples

The following example sets 5001 as the primary extension number for a Cisco IP phone and 0 as the secondary number. This configuration allows the telephone number 5001 to act as a regular extension number and also to act as the operator line such that callers who dial 0 are routed to the phone line with extension number 5001.

Router(config)# ephone-dn 1
Router(config-ephone-dn)# number 5001 secondary 0

The following example sets 5001 as the primary extension number for a Cisco IP phone and "500." (the number 500 followed by a period) as the secondary number. This configuration allows any calls to extension numbers from the range 5000 to 5009 to be routed to extension 5001 if the actual extension number dialed cannot be found. For example, IP phones may be active in the system with lines that correspond to 5001, 5002, 5004, 5005, and 5009. A call to 5003 would be unable to locate a phone with extension 5003, so the call would be routed to extension 5001.

Router(config-ephone-dn)# number 5001 secondary 500.

The following example defines a pair of intercom ephone-dns that are programmed to call each other. The intercom numbers contain alphabetic characters to prevent anyone from dialing them from another phone. Ephone-dn 19 is assigned the number A5511 and is programmed to dial A5522, which belongs to ephone-dn 20. Ephone-dn 20 is programmed to dial A5511. No one else can dial these numbers.

Router(config)# ephone-dn 19
Router(config-ephone-dn)# number A5511
Router(config-ephone-dn)# name Intercom
Router(config-ephone-dn)# intercom A5522

This command was introduced.


Usage Guidelines

This command defines a valid number for an extension that is to be assigned to a SIP phone. Use this command before using the other commands in voice register dn configuration mode.

A number normally contains only numeric characters which allows users to dial the number from any telephone keypad. However, in certain cases, such as the numbers for intercom extensions, you want to use numbers that can only be dialed internally from the Cisco CallManager Express router and not from telephone keypads.

The number command allows you to assign alphabetic characters to the number so that the extension can be dialed by the router for intercom calls but not by unauthorized individuals from other phones.

After you use the number command, use the reset command to initiate a quick reboot of the phone to which this number is assigned.


Note This command can also be used for Cisco SIP SRST.


Examples

The following example shows how to set 5001 as the extension number for directory number 1 on a SIP phone.

Cisco IOS Release
Cisco Product
Modification

12.4(11)XW

Cisco Unified CME 4.2

This command was introduced.


Usage Guidelines

Use this command in voice user-profile configuration mode to create a line button definition in a user profile to be downloaded to the IP phone when the user is logged into an IP phone that is enabled for extension mobility.

Use this command in voice logout-profile configuration mode to create a line button definition in a default profile to be downloaded to an IP phone when no user is logged into an IP phone that is enabled for extension mobility.

For button appearance, extension mobility will associate line definitions in the voice-logout profile or voice-user profile to phone buttons in a sequential manner. If the profile contains more directory and speed-dial numbers than there are buttons on the physical phone to which the profile is downloaded, the remaining numbers in the profile are ignored.

On Cisco Unified IP phones, line definitions are assigned to available extension buttons before speed-dial definitions, in sequential order, starting with the lowest directory number first.

After creating or modifying a profile, use the reset (voice logout-profile or voice user-profile) command to reset all phones associated with the profile being configured to propagate the changes.

Type ? to list valid options for the type keyword. The following options are valid at the time that this document was written:

beep-ring

Beep but no ring. Audible ring is suppressed for incoming calls but call-waiting beeps are allowed. Visible cues are the same as those for a normal ring.

feature-ring

Differentiates incoming calls on a special line from incoming calls on other lines on the phone. The feature-ring cadence is a triple pulse, as opposed to a single-pulse ring for normal internal calls and a double-pulse ring for normal external calls.

monitor-ring

A line button that is configured for monitor mode on one phone provides visual line status for a line that also appears on another phone. When monitor mode is set for a button with a shared line, the line status indicates that the shared line is either idle or in use. The line and line button are available in monitor mode for visual status only. Calls cannot be made or received using a line button that has been set in monitor mode. Incoming calls on a line button that is in monitor mode do not ring and do not display caller ID or call-waiting caller ID. Monitor mode is intended to be used only in the context of shared lines so that one user, such as a receptionist, can visually monitor the in-use status of several users' phone extensions (for example, as a busy-lamp field).

The line button for a monitored line can be used as a direct-station-select for a call transfer when the monitored line is in an idle state. In this case, the phone user who transfers a call from a normal line can press the Transfer button and then press the line button of the monitored line, causing the call to be transferred to the phone number of the monitored line.

silent-ring

You can configure silent ring on any type of phone. However, you typically set silent ring only on buttons of a phone with multiple lines, such as a Cisco Unified IP Phone 7940 or Cisco Unified IP Phone 7960 and 7960G. The only visible cue is a flashing icon in the phone display.

If you configure a button to have a silent ring, you will not hear a call-waiting beep or call-waiting ring regardless of whether the ephone-dn associated with the button is configured to generate a call-waiting beep or call-waiting ring.


Note In Cisco IOS Release 12.4(4)XC and later releases, the silent ringing behavior is overridden during active night-service periods. Silent ringing does not apply during designated night-service periods when the s keyword is used.


overlay

Overlay lines are directory numbers that share a single line button on a multibutton phone. When more than one incoming call arrives on lines that are set on a single button, the line (ephone-dn) that is the left most in the number command list is the primary line and is given the highest priority. If this call is answered by another phone or if the caller hangs up, the phone selects the next line in its overlay set to present as the ringing call. The caller ID display updates to show the caller ID for the currently presented call.

Directory numbers that are part of an overlay set can be single-line directory numbers or dual-line directory numbers, but the set must contain either all single-line or all dual-line directory numbers, and not a mixture of the two.

The primary directory number on each phone in a shared-line overlay set should be a unique ephone-dn. The unique ephone-dn guarantees that the phone will have a line available for outgoing calls, and ensures that the phone user can obtain dial-tone even when there are no idle lines available in the rest of the shared-line overlay set. Use a unique directory number in this manner to provide for a unique calling party identity on outbound calls made by the phone so that the called user can see which specific phone is calling.

The name of the first directory number in the overlay set is not displayed because it is the default directory number for calls to the phone, and the name or number is permanently displayed next to the phone's button. For example, if there are ten numbers in an overlay set, only the last nine numbers are displayed when calls are made to them.

cw-overlay

The same configuration is used for overlaid lines both with and without call waiting.

Directory numbers can accept call interruptions, such as call waiting, by default. For call waiting to work, the default must be active. To ensure that this is the case, remove the no call-waiting beep accept command from the configurations of directory numbers for which you want to use call waiting.

Directory numbers that are part of a cw-overlay set can be single-line directory numbers or dual-line directory numbers, but the set must contain either all single-line or all dual-line directory numbers, and not a mixture of the two.

The Cisco Unified IP Phone 7931G cannot support overlays that contain directory numbers that are configured for dual-line mode.

Examples

The following example shows the configuration for a voice-user profile to be downloaded when the a phone user logs into a Cisco Unified IP phone that is enabled for extension mobility. The lines and speed-dial buttons in this profile that are configured on an IP phone after the user logs in depend on phone type. For example, if the user logs into a Cisco Unified IP Phone 7970, all buttons are configured according to voice-user profile1. However, if the phone user logs into a Cisco Unified IP Phone 7960, all six lines are mapped to phone buttons, and the speed dial is ignored because there is no button available for speed dial.
