Switch Settings - ShoreTel ShorePhone IP 8000 Configuration Manual

• If this is an upgrade from previous ShoreTel versions you
may see a parameter named "Always Use Port 5004 for
RTP", if so, you will need to disable this parameter (by
un-checking box), save the setting change. When enabled,
the SIP extension configuration will fail, it is also important
to note that this "one time" setting requires a system
restart (all servers first, then, ShoreGear switches followed
by IP Phones) to take effect. Once the server has been
restarted, this configuration parameter will no longer be
visible. This does not apply to new installations and
therefore the parameter is not visible (as shown in Figure 2).
• Realm: The realm is used in authenticating all SIP devices. It
is typically a description of the computer or system being
accessed. Changing this value will require a reboot of
switches hosting SIP extensions. It is not necessary to
modify this parameter to get the IP 8000 conference phone
functional.
This action brings up the "Switches" screen. From the
"Switches" screen select the name of the switch to
configure. The "Edit ShoreGear ...Switch" screen will be
displayed. Within the "Edit ShoreGear ...Switch" screen
assign the Port Type Setting of one or more available
• SIP session interval: Session interval value indicates the
session (call) keep alive period. There is no need to modify
the default value of "3600" seconds.
• SIP session refresher: Refresher setting decides if the user
agent client or the user agent server refreshes the session.
Again, there is no need to modify the default value of
"Caller (UAC)". This allows the IP 8000 to be in control of
the session timer refresh.
