What to Do Next
Apply the WLAN Profile Group to a device pool (System > Device Pool) or directly to the phone (Device >

Set Up a Wi-Fi Group
You can create a wireless LAN profile group and add any wireless LAN profile to this group. The profile
group can then be assigned to the phone when you set up the phone.
If your users require access to more than one profile, then a profile group can speed up phone configuration.
Up to four profiles can be added to the profile group and you list the profiles in priority order.

Step 1
In Cisco Unified Communications Administration, select Device > Device Settings > Wireless LAN Profile
Group.
You can also define a wireless LAN profile group from System > Device Pool.
Step 2
Click Add New.
Step 3
In the Wireless LAN Profile Group Information section, enter a group name and description.
Step 4
In the Profiles for this Wireless LAN Profile Group section, select an available profile from the Available
Profiles list and move the selected profile to the Selected Profiles list.
Step 5

Phone Button Templates
You can assign lines and features to the wireless phones with a phone button template. Ideally, you set up the
templates before you register the phones on the network. In this way, you can use a customized phone button
template when you register the phone. But if you don't set up the template first, you can change the phones
later.
The Cisco Wireless IP Phone can have up to six lines and up to 24 connected calls. The default button template
uses position 1 for lines and assigns positions 2 through 6 as speed dials. You can assign the following features
to button positions:
• Service URL
• Privacy
