Re: [cisco-voip] TP Room Endpoints - Name and Number on TV Display

2016-12-01 Thread Anthony Holloway 
This worked  beautifully.  And yes, setting it on other side: codec side or
CM side, forced an update to the opposite side.  Also, no Apply
Config/Reset/Restart required, the display at the top just changes.

Dangso simple.  Well, I guess that's ignorance for you.  I'm new to
Telepresence.  Thanks so much.

Re: [cisco-voip] TP Room Endpoints - Name and Number on TV Display

All the settings on the Device page correspond pretty directly to the 
endpoint’s xconfig equivalent. In later TC code and UCM it will even push an 
update you make on the endpoint up to UCM (for one of those fields).

There used to be an Admin guide for TP Enpoints with CUCM but I don’t know if 
it’s been updated since TC6.

As far as I know just about all TC and CE endpoints share the same settings on 
the Device page (QED, xml, whatever you are used to calling them).

Hi All,

the actual TV or monitor display.

I would like to show a combination of the name of the room and the phone number 
as well, but I'm not finding a very good solution to do this.

I did notice that what shows up by default is from CUCM DN Display field, so I 
edited it.

Instead of just this:

So, that's less than ideal, but atleast it's persistent through reboots of the 
codec.

A non-persistent approach I did try, is changing the Codec's SIP DisplayName, 
which by default is populated with what's in CUCM's DN Display field:

From the default:



To this:




And that works too, but then it's volatile and I have to keep changing them 
back all the time, and checking up on them, bleh.  No thanks.

I did look into the start up script option on a TC7.3 C20 codec, so the system 
can reconfigure its own DisplayName when booting, but that didn't work with the 
below simple script, despite working when manually clicking Run. I think it 
didn't work because of the order of operations: 1) boot codec, 2) run script 
and update display name, 3) register with CUCM, 4) re-update display name from 
CUCM



So anyway, I've done some searching, but not really knowing these systems too 
well or the terminology, I'm kind of stuck.  I suppose I could write a script 
in Python and have it check the config and update, and set that to run every 10 
minutes or whatever, but I don't know.  Maybe.

I'll leave it there and see what you all have seen or done.  Thanks much.

Do you have a link you can refer me to which explains how this setting is
used?  And, do you know if all TP endpoints support that field equally?

I'll give this a try in a few minutes and report back.  Thanks Ryan!

Re: [cisco-voip] TP Room Endpoints - Name and Number on TV Display

I’d recommend setting the System Name on the Device page for the C20.  That 
will sync up with the endpoint’s local setting and avoid any interop issues 
with the Line value.
