The account code field is added through the use of the Acct softkey during the call alerting or connected state. The account code field can be used by a RADIUS server or customer billing server. The account code is added into the Cisco-VOICE- DIAL-CONTROL-MIB.

IPTX v Cisco CallManager Express Auto-Provisioning with CNS Configuration Engine HTTP Cisco CallManager Express CNS Configuration Engine HTTP Cisco CallManager Express routers with minimal bootstrap configuration can be provisioned from CNS Configuration Engine at the hub site. The CNS Configuration Engine is supported with all platforms and versions of Cisco CallManager Express. The configuration template for each router is stored in the CNS server; after the Cisco CallManager Express router is connected to the network, the configuration is downloaded automatically from the CNS server using HTTP.

Unique variables such as hostnames, passwords, and extension numbers can also be set for individual Cisco CallManager Express routers. The template is defined in XML format. The XML parser that is built into Cisco IOS software interprets and applies configuration to the Cisco CallManager Express router.

The MIBs that are supported provide a way to collect CDRs, call legs, dial peers, and information about the system. Account numbers that are inserted in the CDRs and MIBs provide a mechanism by which billing functions can be performed. CNS provides a way to bulk-manage and provision many Cisco CallManager Express systems.
