IP Phone Hostname

[ralf.messmer]

Hi, we have an issue in our CallManager installation with our DNS guys.

The hostnames of the IP Phones are SEP<mac-address>. I want to change these names according our standard naming convention, but i didn't found any possibilty to change the hostname. Have someone an idea or a hint for me ? Or, isn't it possible by default ? And if so, why ?

Rgds.

Have you tried setting the hostname in the BOOTP/DHCP record?
