The VOIP Phone Info server is a application that collects IP phone data from your Cisco VOIP environment.
The key features are:
- Phone configuration data: Pulls high level configuration data (MAC/Description/Device Pool/etc) from Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) via AXL
- Phone registration data: Pulls real-time registration data (IP address, firmware, registration time stamp, EM logins) from CUCM via Serviceability API
- IP Phone webpage: Collects data (Serial number, CDP/LLDP neighbor info, ITL, Network info) by scraping the IP phone's internal web server
- Multiple cluster support: supports integration with multiple CUCM clusters
- Docker: Runs easily in Docker containers
Python 3.7+ and/or Docker
- Create a new application user on your CUCM with the following roles:
- Standard AXL API Access
- Standard CCM Admin Users
- Standard CCMAdmin Read Only
- Standard SERVICEABILITY Read Only
- Install docker
- clone/download CUCM Phone Info from github
- Edit the Docker environment variables file docker-fastapi-variables.env in the project root folder. Create your own secret key and specify your timezone
- run command below from terminal/command line
docker-compose up- This will start a HTTPS web server on port 8080
- Login to https://localhost:8080/ with username 'localadmin' and password 'setup'
- Configure your CUCM clusters on the server. The first CUCM server in the cluster will be used to authenticate future logins to the VOIP Phone Info server.
- Perform manual sync on the Job Status tab
- Set the scheduler to define the automatic update schedule
- All persistent data is stored in the 'data' bind mount. A default self signed certificate is created the first time this application is run. You can replace the files in the 'data/cert' folder with CA signed certificates and then restart the containers.
- phone scraper script isn't perfect - If you notice some phone models not working, or missing data, please open an issue.
- ITL status is populated based on the IP Phone webpage's 'status messages' page. Depending on the phone model and circumstances in the network/VOIP system, the phone may not have a ITL status listed on the 'status' page. This could happen if the phone has not downloaded the ITL/trust list in a while (for whatever reason). On initial run of the phonescraper within this application, you may have many phones that have a blank 'ITL' field. This application only updates the status of the 'ITL' field when there is some valid ITL message on the 'status' page. Assuming this application is left to run daily phonescrapes, over time the ITL value should become accurate, as this application will update the ITL field when it catches the phone's webpage reporting an ITL update (good or bad). Alternatively, you could reset all phones from CUCM and then run a phonescrape and it should collect ITL on most phones as they should update their ITL status on their 'status' webpage after reset.
- testing, has only been tested against CUCM 11.5
- schema files need to be updated with 12.5
- no redundancy for CUCM, if the CUCM node in the first cluster is down, logins will fail.
- The CUCM service account credentials are stored using symmetric encryption. You are responsible for limiting access to the 'data' bind mount directory.
- This application was built using FastAPI for the backend and VueJS for the front end. This is my first application using both technologies, i'm sure there is room for alot of improvement.
