Modify Site Defaults

Site defaults provide the default values for many tasks undertaken while onboarding, and are not limited to the Subscriber Management tasks. When a site is created, a site defaults instance is created on that site with the same name as the site. Many of the attributes in this data model contain default values when this instance is created. [1]

The Site Defaults Doc is particularly useful when managing multi-site, multi-country customers. It allows a Provider Administrator or higher to set geo-specific information at a site level to allow multi-national sites to stay in sync. Geo-specific information includes CUCM user-locale and network-locale defaults as well as the CUC timezone and language defaults.

  1. Log in as provider, reseller, or customer administrator.

  2. Choose Site Management > Defaults.

  3. Click the site that you want to modify defaults for.

  4. From the General Defaults tab, click the following fields to modify their default values as required:

    Option Default Value
    Name

    Site name

    This field is mandatory. It should be the same name as the site. Only one instance of site defaults exists for a site.

    For example, if the E164 Number has been added in the format +44 1234 5000, and this check box is selected, the E164 Mask on the device will have the International Dialing Code prefix removed e.g. +44, and a ‘0’ will be prefixed to the number e.g. 012345000.

    Note:

    For Quick Add Subscriber, set the following value in the E164 Mask field of the relevant phone, device profile and remote destination profile configuration template {{ macro.SDD_QAS_E164Number_MCR }}. See the “Reference CUCM Phone Template” CFT for an example configuration.

[1]For Provider deployments, when a Cisco HCS site dial plan is created, the site defaults on that site are updated. The updated defaults are dial plan-related attributes that are affected by the site dial plan that was deployed. If these specific site defaults attributes already had values before the site dial plan was deployed, they are overwritten. When the site dial plan is removed, these same attributes are reset (set to empty string) in the site defaults.
[2]For Provider deployments, choose from the drop-down list.
