You want to configure caller ID to display a PSTN phone number when the user places an outgoing call.
Which of the following fields should you modify in UCM? (Select the best answer.)
- Display
- External Phone Number Mask
- Line Text Label
- Visual Message Waiting Indicator Policy
Explanation:
You should modify the External Phone Number Mask line appearance field in the Cisco Unified Communications Manager (UCM) administrative graphical user interface (GUI). Line appearance is the association between a line and a device on a Voice over IP (VoIP) network. Because multiple lines can be associated with a single device, you can configure multiple line appearances for a single IP phone. Line appearance configurations can determine how a line that is associated with an IP phone displays information to an end user. After you create a directory number (dn) in UCM and associate the line to a device, you will be able to edit line appearance options that include display settings, such as internal caller ID, external caller ID, and the user name or dn that is displayed beside a line button on an IP phone.
UCM transmits the contents of the External Phone Number Mask field as caller ID information when an internal user places an outgoing call to an external party. The information in the External Phone Number Mask field can be a string that consists of up to 24 numbers, the international escape character +, and X wildcards that represent the extension number. The X wildcards should always be at the end of the string. For example, a user that has been assigned extension number 4000 on the internal VoIP network might also be assigned a direct inward dial (DID) number of (555) 5554000. Therefore, you could configure the External Phone Number Mask field with the string 555555XXXX. The number 5555554000 would then be displayed on the caller ID systems of any external parties who are called by the user at extension 4000. If the user at extension 4000 was not assigned a DID number, you could configure the External Phone Number Mask field with your company’s main public switched telephone network (PSTN) number instead.
You should not modify the Line Text Label field. The contents of the Line Text Label field are displayed beside the associated line button of an IP phone. The field is typically configured with the name of the user that is associated with the line. If the Line Text Label field is not configured, the dn that is associated with the line will be displayed instead. For example, if user John Public has been assigned extension 4000, the dn 4000 will be displayed beside the associated line button on the main screen of John Public’s IP phone unless you configure the Line Text Label field. If you configure the Line Text Label field with the name John Public, then that name will appear beside the line button on the main screen of the IP phone. For shared workstations, you can configure the Line Text Label field with the name of the department or office location that is associated with the IP phone. If you configure the Line Text Label field, you should also configure the ASCII Line Text Label field with similar information. The contents of the ASCII Line Text Label field are displayed on IP phones that do not support Unicode character sets. You cannot use non-ASCII characters in the ASCII Line Text Label field.
You should not modify the Display (Internal Caller ID) field. When the Display (Internal Caller ID) field is blank, the dn that is associated with the calling device is shown on the display of the called device. Otherwise, the contents of the Display (Internal Caller ID) field are shown on the display of the called device. You can configure the Display (Internal Caller ID) field with a name or a description of up to 30 characters in length. If you configure the Display (Internal Caller ID) field, you should also configure the ASCII Display (Internal Caller ID) field with similar information. The contents of the ASCII Display (Internal Caller ID) field are displayed on called devices that do not support Unicode character sets. You cannot use nonASCII characters in the ASCII Display (Internal Caller ID) field.
You should not modify the Visual Message Waiting Indicator Policy field. The Visual Message Waiting Indicator Policy field configures the behavior of the message waiting indicator (MWI) lamp and of the MWI line prompt on an IP phone. For example, configuring the Visual Message Waiting Indicator Policy field to Light and Promptwill configure the IP phone to turn on the MWI lamp that is located on the IP phone’s handset when a new voice mail message arrives. In addition, the IP phone will display a new message prompt beside the associated line button on the IP phone. However, configuring the Visual Message Waiting Indicator Policy field to Prompt Only will display the new message prompt beside the line button but will not turn on the MWI lamp. You can configure the Visual Message Waiting Indicator Policy field differently for each line that is associated with the IP phone. For example, if the IP phone is configured with a shared line in addition to a primary line, you could configure the Visual Message Waiting Indicator Policy field for the shared line to None so that the IP phone never displays MWI information for the shared line.
