Moving the Logout Softkey Location on a
Cisco Unified IP Phone

When a Cisco Unified IP Phone user finishes using the Cisco IPICS service, the
user presses the Logout softkey on the phone. By default, a user must press the
Back softkey after exiting a channel or VTG to access the Logout softkey.
However, you can configure a phone to display the Logout softkey when a user is
connected to a channel or VTG. To do so, add the following parameter to the
Cisco IPICS Service URL:

buttonLayout=logoutOnPTT

Note

If you configure this parameter, a user may need to press the More softkey on
some phone models to see Logout.

Subscribing to the Cisco IPICS Service

Cisco Unified IP Phone users in a deployment that includes Cisco Unified
Communications Manager must subscribe to the Cisco IPICS service before they
can access the service from a phone.

The information in this section does not apply to users in a deployment that
includes Cisco Unified Communications Manager Express. Cisco Unified
Communications Manager Express supports one active service and users are
subscribed to that service automatically.

Before a user can subscribe to the Cisco IPICS service, the service must be
configured as described in the

“Configuring Cisco IPICS as a Phone Service for

Cisco Unified Communications Manager” section on page B-2
