Adding Phones with Cisco Unified Communications Manager
Administration
You can add phones individually to the Cisco Unified Communications Manager
database using Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration. To do
so, you first need to obtain the MAC address for each phone.
For information about determining a MAC address, see the “Determining the
MAC Address for a Cisco Unified IP Phone” section on page 2-20 .
After you have collected MAC addresses, in Cisco Unified Communications
Manager Administration, choose Device > Phone and click Add New to begin.
For complete instructions and conceptual information about Cisco Unified
Communications Manager, refer to Cisco Unified Communications Manager
Administration Guide and to Cisco Unified Communications Manager System
Guide.

Adding Phones with BAT
The Cisco Bulk Administration Tool (BAT) is a plug-in application for
Cisco Unified Communications Manager that enables you to perform batch
operations, including registration, on multiple phones.
To add phones using BAT only (not in conjunction with TAPS), you first need to
obtain the appropriate MAC address for each phone.
For information about determining a MAC address, see the “Determining the
MAC Address for a Cisco Unified IP Phone” section on page 2-20 .
