Creating Synthetic IP Phones in Cisco Unified Communications Manager
To define simulated phones in Cisco Unified Communications Manager for the synthetic tests, do the following:
Step 1. Launch and log in to the Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration page.
Step 2. From the Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration tool, select from the menu Device >
Add a New Device.
Step 3. Change the device type from the drop-down menu to Phone and click Next.
The phone type for the simulated phone must be Cisco 7960.
Step 4. Select this model as the phone type and click Next.
Step 5. In the Phone Configuration window, enter a MAC address between 00059a3b7700 and 00059a3b8aff.
The tool automatically fills in the Description field. Other required fields are Device Pool and Button
Template. Keep the default values for these fields.
Step 6. Click Insert.
Schedule an IP Phone Discovery; it must complete before the new synthetic IP phone can be used in the synthetic
test.
Node-to-Node Tests
Node-to-node tests are typically used to measure jitter, packet loss, and delay on synthetic test traffic generated by
the Cisco IOS Software IP SLA on any Cisco IOS device across a WAN.
Preparing Devices for Node-to-Node Tests
The IP SLA is enabled manually in Cisco IOS Software. You may need to configure, depending on the Cisco IOS
device, the RTR Responder, or the IP SLA Responder command-line interface. The codec type for the jitter test is
supported only on certain versions of Cisco IOS Software (specifically, 12.3(4)T and later). Therefore, it is possible
that the codec type selection may be grayed out based on the source device you choose.
