Add a Self-Provisioning Universal Device Template
-------------------------------------------------

When the administrator or user self-provisions a phone, Cisco Unified
Communications Manager deletes the autoregistered phone and adds the phone
back into the database. The Universal Device Template (UDT) for the user's
profile determines the various phone settings for the user's phone.

Procedure
.........

1. Log in as provider, reseller, or customer administrator.
2. Set the hierarchy path to the site node where you want to configure
   self-provisioning.
3. Choose **User Management > Self-Provisioning > Universal Device Template**.
4. Click **Add**.
5. Enter the following required UDT information.

   +---------------------------+----------------------------------------+
   | Field                     | Description                            |
   +===========================+========================================+
   | Name                      | Enter the name of the UDT.             |
   +---------------------------+----------------------------------------+
   |                           | Use locations to implement call        |
   |                           | admission control (CAC) in a           |
   |                           | centralized call-processing system.    |
   |                           | CAC regulates audio quality and video  |
   | Location                  | availability by limiting the amount of |
   |                           | bandwidth for audio and video calls    |
   |                           | over links between locations. The      |
   |                           | location specifies the total bandwidth |
   |                           | that is available for calls to and     |
   |                           | from this location.                    |
   +---------------------------+----------------------------------------+
   | Common Phone Profile      | Choose a common phone profile.         |
   +---------------------------+----------------------------------------+
   |                           | Enable this setting to allow the UDT   |
   |                           | to work with Phone Designer, a Unified |
   | Phone Personalization     | Communications widget. The widget lets |
   |                           | a user customize the wallpaper and     |
   |                           | ringtones on a device.                 |
   +---------------------------+----------------------------------------+
   |                           | This setting, which works with Maximum |
   |                           | Number of Calls and Call Forward Busy, |
   |                           | determines the maximum number of calls |
   |                           | to be presented at the line. If the    |
   | Busy Trigger              | busy trigger is set to 40, incoming    |
   |                           | call 41 is rejected with a busy cause  |
   |                           | (and is forwarded if Call Forward Busy |
   |                           | is set). If this line is shared, all   |
   |                           | the lines must be busy before incoming |
   |                           | calls are rejected.                    |
   +---------------------------+----------------------------------------+
   |                           | You can configure up to 200 calls for  |
   |                           | a line on a device. As you configure   |
   | Max Number Of Calls       | the number of calls for one line, the  |
   |                           | number calls that are available for    |
   |                           | another line decreases.                |
   +---------------------------+----------------------------------------+
   |                           | This setting specifies whether a       |
   | MultiLevel Precedence and | device that can preempt calls in       |
   | Preemption                | progress uses the capability when it   |
   |                           | places an MLPP precedence call.        |
   +---------------------------+----------------------------------------+
   |                           | When you enable DND on the phone, this |
   | Do Not Disturb Option     | parameter allows you to specify how    |
   |                           | the DND features handle incoming       |
   |                           | calls.                                 |
   +---------------------------+----------------------------------------+
   | Blf Presence Group        | Enter the presence group applicable    |
   |                           | for busy lamp field buttons.           |
   +---------------------------+----------------------------------------+
   |                           | Turn the device mobility feature on or |
   |                           | off for this device or choose Default  |
   | Device Mobility Mode      | to use the default device mobility     |
   |                           | mode. Default setting uses the value   |
   |                           | for the Device Mobility Mode service   |
   |                           | parameter for the device.              |
