Cisco IP Phone: Extension Mobility

Extension mobility gives a temporary configuration to a Cisco telephone extension providing you with a consistent operational look and feel while you are using the phone set. This is referred to as "logging into the phone" and should not be confused with "logging into the hunt group" feature. They are different but also dependent features. (Also, "mobility" is different than "extension mobility"; "mobility" is the feature of integrating cell phones and other off campus devices.)

There are two Stages to the Feature

  1. Logged out profile: includes basic functionality and a shared line appearance on line 1. The phone can place basic on campus calls and call 911.
  2. Logged in profile: includes the private line for the signed in person and any customizations including shared team lines, voicemail access, long distance permissions, speed dials and other features assigned to that individual person.
Please refer to the document in the files area of this knowledge base article for the clearest instructions.
