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

When the administrator or user self-provisions a phone, Cisco Unified
Communications Manager deletes the auto-registered 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.


**Perform these steps**:

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.

   .. note:: 

      These fields can be pre-populated, depending on customer, site, and 
      dial plan configuration: Name, Location, Common Phone Profile, BLF Presence Group

| 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.              |
