How to Create an IP Phone on a CEPC

The IP Phone configuration provides a starting point for devices that use Voice over IP (VoIP) technology for making phone calls.

To create an IP Phone on a CEPC, you can use either the New Platform Wizard that includes a pre-configured option, or the catalog to select the appropriate features for your device.

For a list of features that are included when using the New Platform Wizard, see IP Phone Features.
