Preface

Overview

This book provides the information you need to understand, install, configure, and manage Cisco DX Series devices on a network.

Network engineers, system administrators, and telecom engineers should review this guide to learn the steps that are required to set up Cisco DX Series devices. The tasks described in this document involve configuring network settings that are not intended for users. The tasks in this manual require familiarity with Cisco Unified Communications Manager.

Because of the complexity of an IP telephony network, this guide does not provide complete and detailed information for procedures that you need to perform in Cisco Unified Communications Manager or on other network devices.
