Overview of Supported Security Features Table 1-4 provides an overview of the security features that the Cisco Unified IP Phones 7962G, 7942G, 7961G, 7961G-GE, 7941G, and 7941G-GE support. For more information about these features and about Cisco Unified Communications Manager and Cisco Unified IP Phone security, refer to Cisco Unified Communications Manager Security Guide.
Page 30 Each Cisco Unified IP Phone contains a unique manufacturing installed certificate (MIC), which is used for device authentication. The MIC is a permanent unique proof of identity for the phone, and allows Cisco Unified Communications Manager to authenticate the phone.
Page 31: Understanding Security Profiles
• Understanding Security Profiles All Cisco Unified IP Phones that support Cisco Unified Communications Manager use a security profile, which defines whether the phone is nonsecure, authenticated, or encrypted. For information about configuring the security profile and applying the profile to the phone, refer to Cisco Unified Communications Manager Security Guide.
Page 32: Identifying Authenticated, Encrypted, And Protected Phone Calls
In an authenticated call, all devices participating in the establishment of the call are authenticated by Cisco Unified Communications Manager. When a call in progress is authenticated, the call progress icon to the right of the call duration timer in the phone LCD screen changes to this icon In an encrypted call, all devices participating in the establishment of the call are authenticated by Cisco Unified Communications Manager.
Page 33: Establishing And Identifying Protected Calls
A protected call is established when your phone, and the phone on the other end, is configured for protected calling. The other phone can be in the same Cisco IP network, or on a network outside the IP network. Protected calls can only be made between two phones. Conference calls and other multiple-line calls are not supported.

Page 185: Verifying Dhcp Settings
Verify the DHCP lease duration. Cisco recommends that you set it to 8 days. Cisco Unified IP Phones send messages with request type 151 to renew their DHCP address leases. If the DHCP server expects messages with request type 150, the lease will be denied, forcing the phone to restart and request a new IP address from the DHCP server.
