Description Phone Hardening Behaviour By default, pressing the Applications button on a Cisco IP Phone provides access to a variety of information, including phone configuration information. Disabling the Setting Access parameter in the Phone Configuration window prohibits access to all options that normally display when you press the Applications button on the phone; for example, the Contrast, Ring Type, Network Configuration, Model Information, and Status settings. The preceding settings do not display on the phone if you disable the setting in Unified Communications Manager Administration. If you disable this setting, the phone user cannot save the settings that are associated with the Volume button; for example, the user cannot save the volume. Disabling this setting automatically saves the current Contrast, Ring Type, Network Configuration, Model Information, Status, and Volume settings that exist on the phone. To change these phone settings, you must enable the Setting Access setting in Unified Communications Manager Administration.
