Introducing the SoftPhone
The SoftPhone requires a Cisco license for each user, just like when you purchase
a Model 7960 desktop phone.The product is a 24MB self-extracting
archive file that installs the phone software, the telephony drivers, and the software
version of a DSP for the voice compression and CODEC functions (see
Figure 10.16).The SoftPhone contains equivalent functionality, such as conferencing,
hold, transfer, and call parking.
