Cisco Unified Mobility Overview
Cisco Unified Mobility Cisco Unified Communications Manager Customer Mobile Voice Access establishes a system to create enterprise calls from any location. Call to Mobile Voice Access directory number. Call to office number. PSTN Gateway Mobile Connect lets remote and office phones ring simultaneously. Remote Phone Office Phone Cisco Unified Mobility has two components: Mobile Connect and Mobile Voice Access (MVA). With Mobile Connect, calls placed to office phones ring the office phones and associated remote phone. MVA allows users to call into the enterprise from any phone and place outgoing calls that appear to come from their office phone.
Mobile Connect and MVA Characteristics Mobile Connect characteristics: Receive calls on multiple devices by using a single phone number Answer incoming calls on office or remote phone Switch active calls between office and remote phone MVA characteristics: Originate enterprise calls from any remote destination by: Dialing to the enterprise MVA number Entering ID (if required) and PIN Entering destination number to be called Called party sees the office phone number as the calling party
Cisco Unified Mobility Features Single (office) number for multiple devices: Enterprise caller ID preservation Single enterprise voice mailbox User-configurable access lists to permit or deny calling numbers that can ring a specific remote phone User interface to enable or disable Cisco Unified Mobility: Mobile Voice Access TUI Cisco Unified Communications Manager user webpages Access to enterprise features from remote phones using DTMF: Softkeys can be used on phones with smart client installed.

Cisco Unified Mobility Requirements Cisco Unified Mobility requires: Cisco Unified Communications Manager 6.0 Cisco Unified Mobile Voice Access service activated H.323 or SIP gateway providing Mobile Voice Access IVR application Out-of-band DTMF Remote Destinations must be external devices
Cisco Unified Mobility Configuration Elements Configuration Element Name Configuration Element Function End User The end user is referenced by the office phone and remote destination profile. Mobile Connect and/or MVA must be enabled. A maximum number of remote destinations can be configured. Phone The office phone needs to be configured with an owner (i.e., the end user). Remote Destination Profile A virtual phone device. Per office phone number, a shared line is configured. End user, (device) CSSs, and MOH audio sources are specified. One or more remote destinations are added. Remote Destination Associated with shared line(s) of remote destination profile. Configured with destination number. Optionally, access lists can be applied. Mobile Phone and Mobile Connect functions are selectively enabled. Access List Filters used to permit or deny incoming calls placed to the office phone to ring a remote destination. Permitted or denied caller IDs are specified. MVA Media Resource Media resource used to interact with the VoiceXML call application running on a Cisco IOS router. Only required for MVA. 13

Cisco Unified Mobility Configuration
Cisco Unified Mobility—Mobile Connect Configuration Procedure Configure Mobile Connect: Add mobility softkey to IP phone softkey templates. Configure end user. Configure IP phone. Configure remote destination profile with shared line. Configure remote destination(s) to remote destination profile. Configure service parameters. Optional: Implement access lists to specify which caller ID is allowed to ring a remote destination when a call to the office phone is received. Configure access lists. Apply access lists to remote destination. 17
Step 1: Configure Softkey Template Device > Device Settings > Softkey Template Add the Mobility softkey to On Hook and to Connected call state.
Step 2: Configure End User User Management > End User Enable Mobile Connect for end user. Set maximum number of remote destinations for end user. 19
Step 3: Configure IP Phone Device > Phone This line will be shared with remote destination profile. Assign softkey template. Set Owner User ID. 20
Step 4: Configure Remote Destination Profile Device > Device Settings > Remote Destination Profile CSS used for outgoing calls placed using MVA. Click here and add line of office phone. After add, screen updates. CSS used for ringing remote destination(s) when receiving a call at the office phone. Note: Line is shared with office phone. Configured line CSS and partition apply to both devices: office phone and remote destination profile. Line CSS and device CSS are combined (partitions of line CSS considered first). 21
Step 5: Add Remote Destination(s) to Remote Destination Profile Device > Remote Destination Number of remote destination. Line(s) of remote destination profile are shown only after setting remote destination profile and clicking Save. Once saved, remote destination profile cannot be changed. Allows transfers of active calls from office phone to remote destination using the Mobility softkey. Associate remote destination with line(s) of remote destination profile. Allows calls placed to office phones to also ring the remote destination. 22
Step 6: Configure Service Parameters System > Service Parameters If configured remote destination number does not match caller ID of remote phone (e.g., because of 9-1 prefix in remote destination number), change from Complete Match to Partial Match and set the number of digits that have to match. Otherwise, calls to internal devices are not shown with caller ID of office phone. 23
Step 7a: Configure Access List Device > Device Settings > Access List Enter name and description and select owner. Select type of ACL: Allowed (if checked) or Blocked (if unchecked) Click Add Member for initial configuration of an access list member. Click entry from list at bottom to change configuration of existing member. 24
Step 7b: Apply Access List to Remote Destination Device > Remote Destination Either allowed or blocked acess list can be set. If blocked access list is set, all numbers not listed in access list are allowed (and vice versa). 25

Summary Mobile Connect enables users to receive calls placed to their enterprise number at the enterprise phone and remote phones such as cell phones. Mobile Voice Access extends the Mobile Connect functionality by allowing enterprise calls placed from a remote phone to first connect to the enterprise and then break back out to the called number using the enterprise number of the user as the calling number. Mobile Voice Access requires an H.323 gateway providing an IVR application to Mobile Voice Access users. The Cisco Unified Mobile Voice Access service must be activated in the Cisco Unified Communications Manager cluster for Mobile Voice Access. Implementation of Cisco Unified Mobility includes the configuration of access lists, remote destination profile, and remote destinations.
