Chapter 8: Administering Deskphone

Administering options for 9600 Series H.323 Deskphones

This chapter explains how to change parameter values by using the DHCP or HTTP servers and
provides additional information about some related features. For information on the parameter
names, values, valid range of the values, and a description of each value, see
customizable system parameters
You can set the parameters for DHCP, DHCP fields, and options to the required values. For more
information, see Administering the DHCP and File Servers
parameters to required values in the settings file. For more information, see
file on page 64.
Use the settings file to administer most parameters on the 9600 Series H.323 Deskphones. Some
DHCP applications are complicated and require extensive expertise for administration.
You might choose to completely disable the capability to enter or change option settings from the
dial pad. You can set the parameter PROCPSWD as part of standard DHCP/HTTP administration.
Alternately, you can set PROCPSWD on the system-parameters ip-options form, in Communication
Manager Release 4.0. If PROCPSWD is not null and consists of one to seven digits, a user cannot
invoke any local options without first entering the PROCPSWD value on the Craft Access Code
Entry screen.
For more information on craft options, see the Avaya IP Deskphone Edition for 9600 Series IP
Telephones, Installation and Maintenance Guide, 16-300694.
Note:
If you configure the minimum length of the password as four digits, the password is changed to
default.
Caution:
If you administer PROCPSWD as part of DHCP/HTTP administration, the value is stored and
transmitted unencrypted. Therefore, PROCPSWD is not a high-security technique to inhibit a
sophisticated user from getting access to local procedures unless you administer the parameter
using page 3 of the system-parameters IP-options form in Communication Manager Release
4.0.
