Initial Installation, and Configuration

Cisco strongly recommends that you use the

SPA9000 Voice System Installation

and Configuration Guide

to design your system, to prepare the site, to connect

and configure your equipment, and to set up the essential calling features. By

following the instructions in the installation guide, you can get your system running

in less time and with the settings that help to ensure strong performance.

After you complete the procedures in the installation guide, the users can make

and receive calls. When the optional SPA400 is installed, the users also can record

and retrieve voice mail messages. The SPA9000 has a fully functional Auto

Attendant to greet callers, and a default dial plan that is suitable for most dialing

scenarios. You can use this administration guide to refine the settings, to configure

advanced features, and to manage the system.

NOTE

Because the

SPA9000 Voice System Installation and Configuration Guide

provides all of the procedures that you need for initial installation and configuration,

those instructions are not duplicated in this administration guide.
