[asterisk-users] Do I need a CH1 licence for Cisco Phones ?

[Peter Mitchell]

I've got a question regarding Cisco IP Phones and licencing. 
 
When using a third party PBX like asterisk is a licence required for the
Cisco phones ? Has anyone got anything in writing from Cisco to clarify this
?
 
Eg can I just use CP-7961G or do I need CP-7961G-CH1 even though I'm not
using Cisco Callmanager ?

nse+Scam says no licence required.

 

Cisco site mentions All Cisco Unified IP phones require the purchase of a
phone technology license, regardless of call protocol being used.
