Polycom sip phone cme

[akinsconsulting]

has anyone been able to register a polycom sip phone on a callmanager express? i especially need help on configuring the polycom phone

[Dennis Fogler]

I have not been able to get the 3rd Party Polycom SIP phone to register with Call Manager Express either. The feedback I am getting is that 3rd Party SIP Phones are curently not being supported on Call Manager Express.

Hi Shawn/Dennis,

Have a look at this good note from Tony Huyhn, a technical marketing engineer for Cisco CallManager Express (CME) at Cisco Systems. This answer is from a current "Ask the Expert" event on CME.

Yes, you can register (Cisco only) sip phones to CME as of CME 3.4, IOS 12.4(4)T

Here is the thread;

Hope this helps!

thanks for the link, Rob.

I actually was able to get one of the Line buttons to register on CME as an extension. i can make calls to other extensions and call this extension but am unable to call out the PSTN.

the phone doesn't register though, but the line button does. not very familiar with Polycom phones which is my issue.

I just got this to work with a SoundPoint 501. Took some fiddling, but phone is registered and seems to work Ok. Still working on some issues with WMI and getting the messages button to work correctly, but the phone is registered.

here is the config:
