Run multiple IPBlue Softphones:

  1. Create a new IP Blue shortcut with the  ‘/d’ option following the softphone executable.
  2. Open the IP Blue Softphone
  3. Change the phone options
    • Set the TFTP Server to the ip address of your CUCM server
    • Set the MAC Address with the Network interface option
    • Set the Primary Call Manager
    • Select an IP Phone model to emulate
  4. Open the Windows registry editor (Click Start > Run  and type regedit)
  5. Export the Phone settings
    • Navigate to the HKEY_LOCAL_USER\Software\IPBlue branch
    • Right-Click on the IPBlue folder and select ‘Export’
    • Give the registry file a descriptive name and click ‘Save’
  6. Repeat Steps 3-5 for each virtual phone you would like to use.
  7. Double-Click one of the .reg file for one of the softphones saved in steps above.
  8. Open the IP Blue Softphone.
  9. Double-Click another .reg file for one of the softphones saved in steps above.
  10. Open the IP Blue softphone again. (The IPBlue software references the settings in the system registry during startup)
