How to Use

You must be run script from same directory location as the schema folder

Edit script to reflect your CUCM environment and run

you will need to edit the variables to match your environment

DEFAULT_PT = partition used by the directory numbers

INTERNAL_CSS = internal search space if applicable

EXTERNAL_CSS = external search space if applicable

you will need to edit the dictionaries 'devicepools' and 'searchspace' to reflect your environmnets device pool names and calling search spaces used by your phones.

devicepools = {'site_a':'devicepool_a', 'site_b':'devicepool_b'}

searchspace = {'site_a': 'css_a', 'site_b': 'css_b'}

The script has 2 of each to demonstrate options but you can add more or less as applies to you.

You can add more if applicable e.g. 'site_c': 'devicepool_C' if you do, remember to add extra option to variable 'location' and extra 'if' block, like below

location =  pyip.inputMenu(['For Site_A','For Site_B','For Site_C'], numbered=True)

if location == 'For Site_C':        
		ph_css = searchspace['site_c']
		ph_devicepool = devicepools['site_c']

Jabbermaker allows user option to setup persistent credentials. On running the script you will be presented with an option to 'Enter Setup'; if select 'yes' you will be prompted to setup persistent credentials. if 'no' and have not previously setup persistent credentials, the script will prompt for login. if 'no' and had setup persistent credentials, the script will go straight to Jabber configuration steps.
