Sipura CA Client Root Certificate

Cisco also provides a Sipura CA Client Root Certificate to the service provider. This root certificate certifies
the authenticity of the client certificate that each phone carries. The Multiplatform Phones also support
third-party signed certificates such as those provided by Verisign, Cybertrust, and so on.
The unique client certificate that each device offers during an HTTPS session carries identifying information
that is embedded in its subject field. This information can be made available by the HTTPS server to a CGI
script invoked to handle secure requests. In particular, the certificate subject indicates the unit product name
(OU element), MAC address (S element), and serial number (L element).
The following example from the Cisco IP Phone 6841 Multiplatform Phones client certificate subject field
shows these elements:
OU=CP-6841-3PCC, L=88012BA01234, S=000e08abcdef
Units manufactured before firmware 2.0.x do not contain individual SSL client certificates. When these units
are upgraded to a firmware release in the 2.0.x tree, they become capable of connecting to a secure server that
is using HTTPS, but are only able to supply a generic client certificate if the server requests them to do so.
This generic certificate contains the following information in the identifying fields:
OU=cisco.com, L=ciscogeneric, S=ciscogeneric
To determine if a phone carries an individualized certificate, use the $CCERT provisioning macro variable.
The variable value expands to either Installed or Not Installed, according to the presence or absence of a
