Communication Manager Administration
NAT
Network Address Translation (NAT) usage can lead to problems that affect the consistency of
addressing throughout your network. All H.323 IP Telephones support NAT interworking.
Support for NAT does not imply support for Network Address Port Translation (NAPT). The
telephones do not support communication to the PBX through any NAPT device.
NAT requires specific administration on the media server. A direct Avaya IP Telephone-to-Avaya
IP Telephone call with NAT requires Avaya Communication Manager Release 3.0 or greater
software. For more information, see Administration for Network Connectivity for Avaya
Communication Manager (Document Number 555-233-504) on the Avaya support Web site.
DIFFSERV
The DiffServ values change to the values administered on the media server as soon as the
telephone registers. For more information, see Chapter 4 "Network Quality Administration" in
Administration for Network Connectivity for Avaya Communication Manager (Document
Number 555-233-504). Unless there is a specific need in your enterprise LAN, Avaya
recommends that you do not change the default values.

telephone, that number is automatically dialed, giving the user one-touch access to voice mail.
Call Transfer Considerations

the call server. The telephone application presents a user interface, based in part on the
deduction of the call state. But, as the administrator, be aware that the following server-based
features can interact with the user interface resulting in a call state that might need explanation:
When the system parameter Abort Transfer? is set to Yes, once a transfer has been

started the user cannot press a non-idle call appearance until the transfer is complete or
