cucm_phone_inventory

Flask web app that displays several information details about all the phone endpoints from your CUCM environment

In this sample, you will be able to see an example of a front-end and back-end solution that utilizes the Administrative XML Layer (AXL) API and Risport (realtimeservice) API for Cisco Unified Communications Manager with python to view a list of all your phone endpoints.

Important Notes

  • The two test files are include to explore the responses that the api calls returns for the phones
  • The serial number will only display for phones that have a routable ip address from which this flask server will be running on.
  • The method this script is using, is grabbing the ip address for the phone, and then web scraping the phone's web page to grab the serial numbter.
  • If phone does not have an IP address, the serial number will show as "unassigned" and if the ip address is unreachable from the hosted server, the serial number will show as "unaccessible"
