Overview

When you need time to focus and do not want any incoming call notifications to disturb you, now you do not have to enable Do Not Disturb (DND) on each of your UCM Calling registered clients separately. When you enable it on the Webex app, the state is automatically synchronized to your desk phone. Similarly, when you enable it on your desk phone, the state is automatically synchronized to your Webex apps.

Pre-Requisite

  • Configure Phone Presence applications On-Premises.

  • Sync up Unified CM with Control Hub UI.

  • Map Unified CM to Webex Common Identity (CI).

  • Subscribe to Cloud-Connected UC, and Connect the On-Prem devices to Cloud-Connected UC.

    If you have not subscribed to CCUC, see Set Up Webex Cloud-Connected UC for On-Premises Devices.
