Signaling Protocol Administration; Post-Installation Checklist - Avaya 9601 Installing And Maintaining

Signaling protocol administration

The deskphones are shipped with the H.323 protocol as default. You must convert the signaling to
SIP to use the deskphone in a SIP environment. Set the SIG parameter to SIP by using one of the
following methods:
• In DHCP Option 242 (Site-Specific Option Number) or in the 46xxsettings.txt file, set the SIG
parameter to SIP.
• In the Craft procedure, set the SIG option to SIP.

Post-installation checklist

To ensure that the deskphone is properly installed, verify that the following requirements are
complete.
Requirement
Has the deskphone acquired an IP address?
Are able to make a call from the deskphone?
Are you able to perform backup-restore?
Are you able to change deskphone settings?
Are you able to upgrade your phone?
For security considerations, have you configured the
deskphone setup with TLS signaling? Have you
installed the appropriate private network
authentication certificates?
