Describe Cisco Unity Connection Users and Mailboxes

The system components identified previously are important, but without users and mailboxes, system functionality is limited. The following sections outline the basics of adding users and mailboxes to the system.

User Templates

User Templates, as the name implies, provide a pattern used in the creation of new user accounts. Most of the required configuration information common to all the new users can be entered in the template, and then the individual user-specific information is combined with the template to create (potentially many) new user accounts with speed and accuracy. The template settings are applied as the user is created; changing the template does not retroactively change the user accounts that were created using that template.
