information about administering HTTP servers is covered in DHCP and File Servers, and more specifically, HTTP Generic Setup. Once you are familiar with that material, you can administer telephone options as described in Chapter 7: Administering Telephone Options.
Parameter Data Precedence

If a given parameter is administered in multiple places, the last server to provide the parameter usually has precedence. The precedence, from lowest to highest, is: 1. Manual administration, with the two exceptions described for the system parameter STATIC on page 96, 2. DHCP, except as indicated in Table 9: DHCPACK Setting of Parameter Values, 3. the 46xxsettings.txt file, 4. the Avaya call server, 5. Backup files, if administered and if permitted, and finally, 6. LLDP, except for setting the call server and file server IP addresses, for which it has the lowest precedence (LLDP is only supported in IPv4 mode).
The Administrative Process

The following list depicts administration for a typical 9600 Series IP Telephone network. Your own configuration might differ depending on the servers and system you have in place. 1. Switch administered for 9600 Series IP Deskphones. 2. LAN and applicable servers administered to accept the telephones. 3. Telephone software downloaded from the Avaya support site. 4. 46xxsettings file updated with site-specific information, as applicable. 5. 9600 Series IP Deskphones installed. For more information, see the appropriate Avaya one-X Deskphone H.323 Installation and Maintenance Guide (Document Number 16-300694 for all but Release 6.0 and for Release 6.0 covering the 9608, 9611G, 9621G, and 9641G deskphones, Document Number 16-603603). 6. Individual 9600 Series IP Deskphones updated using Craft procedures, as applicable. For more information, see Local Administrative Procedures in the appropriate Avaya one-X Deskphone H.323 Installation and Maintenance Guide.
The Administrative Process
Administrative Checklist
Use the following checklist as a guide to system and LAN administrator responsibilities. This high-level list helps ensure that all telephone system prerequisites and requirements are met prior to telephone installation.

Telephone Initialization Process

These steps offer a high-level description of the information exchanged when the telephone initializes and registers. This description assumes that all equipment is properly administered ahead of time. The Avaya one-X Deskphone H.323 Installation and Maintenance Guide (Document Number 16-300694 for all but Release 6.0 and Document Number 16-603603 for
Telephone Initialization Process
Release 6.0 covering the 9608, 9611G, 9621G, and 9641G deskphones) provides a detailed description of initialization (power-up and reset).
Step 1: Access the network

The telephone is appropriately installed and powered. After a short initialization process, the telephone displays the speed at which it is connected to the network and determines whether to initiate 802.1X network access procedures.
Step 2: DHCP
If an IP address has not been manually configured in the telephone, the telephone initiates DHCP, as described in DHCP and File Servers on page 55. Among other data passed to the telephone is the IP Address of the HTTP or HTTPS server.
Step 3: VPN (optional)

The telephone then determines whether to establish a Virtual Private Network (VPN) connection. If yes, the telephone establishes a VPN tunnel as appropriate for its administration.
Step 4: Download files

The 9600 Series IP Deskphones can download configuration files, language files, and certificate files from either an HTTP or HTTPS server, but they can only download software files from an HTTP server. The telephone first downloads an upgrade configuration file, which tells the telephone which software files it should use. The telephone then downloads a settings configuration file, and based on those settings, it may then download language files and/or certificate files. Finally, the telephone will download one or two new software files, depending on whether or not the software in the telephone is the same as that specified in the upgrade file. For more information about this download process and settings file, see Chapter 6: Telephone Software and Application Files.
Step 5: Register with the call server

The call server referred to in this step is Avaya Aura Communication Manager. In this step, the telephone might prompt the user for an extension and password. The telephone uses that information to exchange a series of messages with the call server. For a new
Issue 8 August 2010
21
installation and for full service, the user can enter the telephone extension and the password configured on the call server for that particular extension. For a restart of a telephone that was previously registered with an extension number, this information is already stored on the telephone, but the user might have to confirm the information. The expected result is that the telephone is appropriately registered and call server data such as feature button assignments are downloaded. The 9600 Series IP Deskphones support a feature called Unnamed Registration. Unnamed Registration allows a telephone to register with the call server without an extension, assuming the call server also supports this feature (i.e., unnamed registration is enabled through Avaya Communication Manager administration). To invoke Unnamed Registration, either enter a null (empty) extension or password or take no action. In the latter case, allow the Extension... prompt display for 60 seconds without making an entry. The telephone automatically attempts to register by means of Unnamed Registration. A telephone registered with Unnamed Registration has the following characteristics:

only one call appearance, no administrable features, can make only outgoing calls, subject to call server Class of Restriction/Class of Service limitations, and can be converted to normal named registration by the user entering a valid extension and password.
You can also administer the telephone to avoid unnamed registration and remain unregistered if no extension and password are provided. For more information, see UNNAMEDSTAT in Table 12. For more information about the installation process, see the appropriate Avaya one-X Deskphone Edition for 9600 IP Telephones Installation and Maintenance Guide (Document Number 16-300694 for all but Release 6.0 and Document Number 16-603603 for Release 6.0 covering the 9608, 9611G, 9621G, and 9641G deskphones).
Error Conditions
Assuming proper administration, most of the problems reported by telephone users are likely to be LAN-based. Quality of Service, server administration, and other issues can impact user perception of IP telephone performance. The Avaya one-X Deskphone Edition for 9600 IP Telephones Installation and Maintenance Guide covers possible operational problems that might be encountered after successful 9600 Series IP Deskphone installation. The User Guides for a specific telephone model also contain guidance for users having problems with specific applications.
Chapter 3: Network Requirements
Network Assessment
Perform a network assessment to ensure that the network will have the capacity for the expected data and voice traffic, and that it can support for all applications:

H.323, DHCP, HTTP/HTTPS, and Jitter buffers.
Also, QoS support is required to run VoIP on your configuration. For more information, see UDP Port Selection on page 39 and, for more generic information, Other Documentation on page 13. If you want any of your users to be able to use their 9600 Series IP Deskphones to access your network through a Virtual Private Network (VPN), see the VPN Setup Guide for 9600 Series IP Telephones (Document 16-602968).
Hardware Requirements
To operate properly, you need:

Category 5e cables designed to the IEEE 802.3af-2003 standard, for LAN powering, TN2602 or TN2302 IP Media Processor circuit pack. Sites with a TN2302 IP Media Processor circuit pack are strongly encouraged to install a TN2602 circuit pack to benefit from increased capacity. TN799C or D Control-LAN (C-LAN) circuit pack.
!
Important:
Important: IP telephone firmware Release 1.0 or greater requires TN799C V3 or greater C-LAN circuit pack(s). For more information, see the Communication Manager Software and Firmware Compatibility Matrix on the Avaya support Web site http://www.avaya.com/support.
To ensure that the appropriate circuit pack(s) are administered on your server, see Chapter 4: Communication Manager Administration. For more information about hardware requirements in general, see the appropriate Avaya one-X Deskphone H.323 Installation and Maintenance Guide (Document Number 16-300694 for all but Release 6.0.

Network Requirements
covering the 9608, 9611G, 9621G, and 9641G deskphones, use Document Number 16-603603).
Server Requirements
Three server types can be configured for the 9600 Series IP Deskphones:

DHCP HTTP or HTTPS Web (optional)
While the servers listed provide different functions that relate to the 9600 Series IP Deskphones, they are not necessarily different boxes. For example, DHCP provides file management whereas HTTP provides application management, yet both functions can co-exist on one hardware unit. Any standards-based server is recommended. For parameters related to Avaya Server information, see Chapter 4: Communication Manager Administration, and the administration documentation for your call server. For parameters related to DHCP and file servers, see Chapter 5: Server Administration.
! CAUTION:
CAUTION:
The telephones obtain important information from the script files on the file server and depend on the application file for software upgrades. If the file server is unavailable when the telephones reset, the telephones operate based on their default administration and continue on to register with the call server. Some features might not be available. To restore them you need to reset the telephone(s) when the file server is available.
DHCP Server
Avaya recommends that a DHCP server be installed and that static addressing be avoided. Install the DHCP server as described in DHCP and File Servers on page 55.
HTTP/HTTPS Server
Administer the HTTP or HTTPS file server as described in HTTP Generic Setup on page 62.
Required Network Information
Web and Push servers (Optional)

If users have access to corporate WML Web sites, administer the telephones as described in Chapter 5: Server Administration. For push functionality, a Trusted Push Server is needed. The Trusted Push Server can be the same server as your WML server. Avaya recommends that you restrict access to directories on the WML server that contain push content. Note: Push is supported only in IPv4 mode.
Note:
Your Web and push server configuration must be compatible with the requirements covered in the 9600 Series IP Telephone Application Programmer Interface (API) Guide.
Required Network Information

Before you administer DHCP and HTTP/HTTPS, complete the information in Table 3. If you have more than one Gateway (router), HTTP/HTTPS server, or call server in your configuration, complete Table 3 for each. The 9600 Series IP Deskphones support specifying a list of IP Addresses for a gateway/router, HTTP/HTTPS server, and Avaya call servers. Each list can contain up to 255 total ASCII characters, with IP Addresses separated by commas with no intervening spaces. Depending on the specific DHCP server, only 127 characters might be supported. When specifying IP Addresses for the file server or call server, use either dotted decimal format (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx) or DNS names for IPv4 addresses, or colon-hex format or DNS names for IPv6 entries. If you use DNS, the value of the DOMAIN parameter is appended to the DNS names that you specify. If DOMAIN is null, the DNS names must be fully qualified. For more information about DNS, see DHCP Generic Setup on page 58 and DNS Addressing on page 104. Table 3: Required Network Information Before Installation - Per DHCP Server 1. Gateway (router) IP Address(es) 2. HTTP/HTTPS file server IP Address(es), port number (if different from the default), and directory path (if files are not located in the root directory) 3. Subnetwork mask 4. Avaya call server IP Address(es)

As the LAN or System Administrator, you are also responsible for:

Administering the DHCP server as described in Chapter 5: Server Administration. Editing the configuration file on the applicable HTTP or HTTPS file server, as covered in 9600 Series IP Telephone Scripts and Application Files.
Other Network Considerations

SNMP
The 9600 Series IP Deskphones are compatible with SNMPv2c and with Structure of Management Information Version 2 (SMIv2). The telephones also respond correctly to queries from entities that comply with earlier versions of SNMP, such as SNMPv1. The telephones respond to queries directed either at the MIB-II or the read-only Custom MIB. Read-only means that the values therein cannot be changed externally by means of network management tools. You can restrict the IP Addresses from which the telephone accepts SNMP queries with the SNMPADD parameter. You can also customize your community string with the SNMPSTRING parameter. 9600 Series IP Deskphones support the functionality introduced with Avaya Communication Manager Release 4.0 that allows call server administration of SNMPADD and SNMPSTRING. For more information, see Chapter 5: Server Administration and Table 12: 9600 Series IP Telephone Customizable System Parameters. Note: SNMP is disabled by default. Administrators must initiate SNMP by setting the SNMPADD and SNMPSTRING parameters appropriately.
Note:
For more information about SNMP and MIBs, see the IETF web site listed in IETF Documents on page 13. The Avaya Custom MIB for the 9600 Series IP Telephones is available for download in *.txt format on the Avaya support Web site at http://www.avaya.com/ support. Note: The H.323 software Release 3.1 MIB differs from the software Release 6.0 MIB. Be sure to download the MIB(s) applicable to your environment.
Note:
Ping and traceroute

All 9600 Series IP Deskphones respond to a ping or traceroute message sent from the call server switch or any other network source. The call server can also instruct the telephone to originate a ping or a traceroute to a specified IP address. The telephone carries out that instruction and sends a message to the call server indicating the results. For more information, see your call server administration documentation.
IP address and settings reuse

After a successful registration with a call server, the telephone's IP address and parameter values are saved in the phones non-volatile memory so that the telephone can reuse the saved parameters if the DHCP or HTTP/HTTPS server is not available for any reason after a telephone restart.
QoS
For more information about the extent to which your network can support any or all of the QoS initiatives, see your LAN equipment documentation. See QoS on page 40 about QoS implications for the 9600 Series IP Deskphones. All 9600 Series IP Deskphones provide some detail about network audio quality. For more information see Network Audio Quality Display on page 28.
IEEE 802.1D and 802.1Q

For more information about IEEE 802.1D and IEEE 802.1Q and the 9600 Series IP Deskphones, see IEEE 802.1Q on page 40 and VLAN Considerations on page 99. Three bits of the 802.1Q tag are reserved for identifying packet priority to allow any one of eight priorities to be assigned to a specific packet.

7: Network management traffic 6: Voice (traffic with less than 10ms latency and jitter) 5: Video (traffic with less than 100ms latency and jitter) 4: Controlled-load traffic for critical data applications 3: Traffic meriting extra-effort by the network for prompt delivery, for example, executive e-mail 2: Reserved for future use 0: The default priority for traffic meriting the best-effort for prompt delivery of the network 1: Background traffic such as bulk data transfers and backups

Note:
Priority 0 is a higher priority than Priority 1.
Network Audio Quality Display

All 9600 Series IP Deskphones give the user an opportunity to monitor network audio performance while on a call. The Network Information screen displays this information. Access the Network Information screen on most 9600 Series IP button-based deskphones from the Avaya (A) Menu and select the Network Information option directly if shown, or (if not shown) first select Phone Settings, then select the Network Information option. On touchscreen deskphones (9621G, 9641G, and 9670G), access the Home screen, then select Settings, then Network Information. While on a call, the telephones display network audio quality parameters in real-time, as shown in Table 4. Table 4: Parameters in Real-Time Parameter Received Audio Coding Packet Loss Possible Values G.711, G.722, G.726, or G.729. No data or a percentage. Late and out-of-sequence packets are counted as lost if they are discarded. Packets are not counted as lost until a subsequent packet is received and the loss confirmed by the RTP sequence number. No data or an integer number of milliseconds. The number reflects the amount of delay in received audio packets, and includes any potential delay associated with the codec. No data or an integer number of milliseconds. The number is one-half the value RTCP or SRTCP computes for the round-trip delay. No data or an integer number of milliseconds reporting the average delay introduced by the jitter buffer of the telephone.
Packetization Delay
One-way Network Delay
Network Jitter Compensation Delay
The implication for LAN administration depends on the values the user reports and the specific nature of your LAN, like topology, loading, and QoS administration. This information gives the user an idea of how network conditions affect the audio quality of the current call. Avaya assumes you have more detailed tools available for LAN troubleshooting.
Qtest for Audio Quality

A Qtest capability can be enabled that allows network quality information to be displayed when the deskphone is not on a call. When the QTESTRESPONDER parameter is set to an IP Address, a Qtest softkey displays on the Network Information screen when a call is not active;
see Network Audio Quality Display for information on accessing this screen. When the Qtest softkey is pressed, UDP packets are sent to the echo port at the IP Address specified by QTESTRESPONDER, and statistics are computed and displayed based on the returned packets. A UDP port is opened for Qtest only while it is active; see TCP/UDP Port Utilization on page 29 for the UDP port numbers applicable to Qtest.
IP Address Lists and Station Number Portability

The 9600 Series IP Deskphones provide the capability to specify IP Address lists. On startup or a reboot, the telephone attempts to establish communication with these various network elements in turn. The telephone starts with the first address on the respective list. If the communication is denied or times out, the telephone proceeds to the next address on the appropriate list and tries that one. The telephone does not report failure unless all the addresses on a given list fail, improving the reliability of IP telephony. This capability also has the advantage of making station number portability easier. Assume a situation where the company has multiple locations in London and New York, all sharing a corporate IP network. Users want to take their telephones from their offices in London and bring them to New York. When users start up their telephones in the new location, the local DHCP server usually routes them to the local call server. With proper administration of the local DHCP server, the telephone knows to try a second call server IP Address, this one in London. The user can then be automatically registered with the London call server. Chapter 5: Server Administration contains details on administration of DHCP servers for lists of alternate call servers, router/gateways, and HTTP/HTTPS servers. For more information, see DNS Addressing on page 104.
TCP/UDP Port Utilization

The 9600 Series IP Deskphones use a variety of protocols, particularly TCP (Transmission Control Protocol), UDP (User Datagram Protocol), and TLS (Transport Layer Security) to communicate with other equipment in the network. Part of this communication identifies which TCP or UDP ports each piece of equipment uses to support each protocol and each task within the protocol. For additional TCP/UDP port utilization information as it applies to Avaya Communication Manager, see UDP Port Selection on page 41. Depending on your network, you might need to know what ports or ranges are used in the deskphone operation. Knowing these ports or ranges helps you administer your networking infrastructure.

Security
For information about toll fraud, see the respective call server documents on the Avaya support Web site. The 9600 Series IP Deskphones cannot guarantee resistance to all Denial of Service attacks. However, there are checks and protections to resist such attacks while maintaining appropriate service to legitimate users. All 9600 Series IP Deskphones that have WML Web applications support Transport Layer Security (TLS). This standard allows the telephone to establish a secure connection to a HTTPS server, in which the upgrade and settings file can reside. This setup adds security over another alternative.
Issue 8 August 2010

HTTP authentication is supported for backup and restore operations. The authentication credentials and the realm are stored in reprogrammable non-volatile memory that is not overwritten if new telephone software is downloaded. The default value of the credentials and the realm are null, set at manufacture and at any other time that user-specific data is removed from the telephone or by the local administrative (Craft) CLEAR procedure. If an HTTP backup or restore operation requires authentication and the realm in the challenge matches the stored realm, the stored credentials are used to respond to the challenge without prompting the user. However, if the realms do not match, or if an authentication attempt using the stored credentials fails, the user is then prompted to input new values for backup/restore credentials. If an HTTP authentication for a backup or restore operation is successful and if the userid, password or realm used is different than those currently stored in the telephone, the new value(s) will replace the currently stored value(s). You also have a variety of optional capabilities to restrict or remove how crucial network information is displayed or used. These capabilities are covered in more detail in Chapter 5: Server Administration.
Support signaling channel encryption. Note: Signaling and audio are not encrypted when unnamed registration is effective.
Note:
Restricting the response of the 9600 Series IP Deskphones to SNMP queries to only IP Addresses on a list you specify. Specifying an SNMP community string for all SNMP messages the telephone sends. Restricting dialpad access to Local Administration Procedures, such as specifying IP Addresses, with a password. Restricting dialpad access to Craft Local Procedures to experienced installers and technicians. Restricting the end users ability to use a telephone Options application to view network data. As of Release 2.0, 9600 Series IP Telephones can download and use third-party trusted certificates. As of Release 1.5, 9600 Series IP Telephones are fully compliant with IETF RFC 1948 Defending Against Sequence Number Attacks, May 1996, by S. Bellovin. As of Release 1.5, three existing security-related parameters can be administered on the call server and downloaded with encrypted signaling, in addition to unencrypted HTTP or encrypted HTTPS. Those parameters are SNMP community string (SNMPSTRING), SNMP Source IP Addresses (SNMPADD), and Craft Access Code (PROCPSWD).
Registration and Authentication

Avaya call servers support using the extension and password to register and authenticate 9600 Series IP Deskphones. For more information, see the current version of your call server administration manual.
Time-to-Service (TTS)
The IP Endpoint Time-to-Service (TTS) feature was introduced in Software Release 1.2.1, along with Avaya Communication Manager (CM) Release 4.0. TTS changes the way IP endpoints register with their gatekeeper, reducing the time to come into service. Without TTS, IP endpoints are brought into service in two steps, which are coupled: (1) H.323 registration and (2) TCP socket establishment for call signaling. The TTS feature de-couples these steps. In CM 4.0, IP endpoints can be enabled for service with just the registration step. TCP sockets are established later, as needed. The TTS feature also changes the direction of socket establishment. With TTS, Communication Manager, rather than the endpoint, initiates socket establishment, which further improves performance. In CM 4.0, TTS is enabled by default, but can be disabled for all IP endpoints in a given IP network region by changing the IP Network form. TTS applies only to IP endpoints whose firmware has been updated to support this feature. It does not apply to the following endpoints: third party H.323, DCP, BRI, and analog. As of software Release 3.0, 9600 Series IP Deskphones will accept an incoming connection request from a server on their gatekeeper list, use this new connection to replace an existing connection, and continue operation without the need to re-register. This mechanism allows CM to quickly originate a new connection to each of these telephones during a server interchange, causing the telephones to move quickly to the server and transitioning from the standby to active state. For more information, see the Administrator Guide for Avaya Communications Manager (Document Number 03-300509).

Chapter 4: Communication Manager Administration
Call Server Requirements

Before you perform administration tasks, ensure that the proper hardware is in place, and your call server software is compatible with the 9600 Series IP Deskphones. Avaya recommends the latest PBX software and the latest IP telephone firmware.
Switch Compatibility and Aliasing IP Deskphones

As of Release 1.2, 9600 Series IP Telephones were natively supported by Avaya Communication Manager (CM) Release 4.0. Native support means that if you have CM 4.0 or greater, deskphones do not have to be aliased. Administer the deskphones on Avaya Aura Communication Manager as follows: 9600 Series IP Deskphone Model 9608 9610 9611G 9620/9620L/9620C 9621G 9630/9630G 9640/9640G 9641G 9650/9650C 9670G
Administer on CM 3.1 as... 4610 4610 4620 4610 4620 4620 4620 4620 4620 4620
Administer on CM 4.0+ as... 9630 9610 9630 or 9640 9620 9630 or 9640 9630 9640 9630 or 9640 9650 9630 or 9640
You can add up to three SBM24 Button Modules on each deskphone that supports an SBM24 (9608, 9611G, 9630/9630G, 9640/9640G, 9641G, 9650/9650C, and 9670 IP Deskphones). You can add up to three BM12 Button Modules to the 9608, 9611G, and/or 9641G. When adding multiple button modules to a 9608, 9611G, or 9641G deskphone, all button modules must be of the same type. You can administer a call coverage telephone number on a station-by-station basis.

Communication Manager Administration
Note:
Note: Although the 9620/9620L/9620C can be aliased as a 4620SW IP Telephone, some features are not available. For example, the 9620 phones only support a total of 12 call appearances and administered feature buttons. The 4620 can be administered for a total of 24 call appearances and feature buttons. Note: Call appearances are not configurable for native support of the 9610 in CM 4.0. Care should be taken when aliasing the 9610 as a 4610, since the call appearances are configurable but must adhere to the unique 9610 administrative guidelines found in For the 9610 IP Telephone on page 49 and Special Administration for the 9610 IP Telephone. Note: Softphone is currently not supported using native support of the 96xx phones.
Note:
Note:
For specific administration instructions about aliasing 9600 Series IP Telephones, see Administering Stations on page 47. When a 9610 IP Telephone is aliased as a 4610SW IP Telephone, its four administrable call appearances/features should be:

one primary call appearance the Directory, Next, and Make Call feature buttons (hard-coded with CM 4.0 or later)
The 9610 ignores any other features or call appearances. When a 9620/9620L/9620C IP Telephone is aliased as a 4620SW IP Telephone, do not administer:

a button module (SBM24, EU24, or EU24BL), or feature buttons 13 through 24.
The 9608, 9611G, 9621G, 9630/9630G, 9640/9640G, 9641G, 9650/9650C, and 9670G IP Deskphones support twenty-four administrable telephony call appearances or features. In addition, the 9630/9630G, 9640/9640G, 9650/9650C, and 9670G IP Deskphones support the SBM24 Button Module. These models always support a single SBM24, and within CM 4.0 or later, support up to three SBM24 Button Modules per telephone. As of software Release 6.0, the 9608, 9611G, and 9641G can support up to three BM12 Button Modules or up to three SBM24 Button Modules; multiple button modules attached to a single 9608, 9611G or 9641G must all be the same model type. The SBM24 Button Module and the BM12 Button Module provide another twenty-four administrable call appearances and features; the BM12 displays twelve call appearances/ features at a time on each of two pages. Either button module can be used freestanding or attached directly to the applicable deskphone.
Call Server (Switch) Administration
Call Server (Switch) Administration

For switch administration information not covered in this chapter, see the following documents on the Avaya support Web site:
The Administrator Guide for Avaya Communication Manager (Document Number 03-300509) provides detailed instructions for administering an IP telephone system on Avaya Communication Manager. See Chapter 3 Managing Telephones, which describes the process of adding new telephones. Also, you can locate pertinent screen illustrations and field descriptions in Chapter 19 Screen References of that guide. Administration for Network Connectivity for Avaya Communication Manager (Document Number 555-233-504) provides detailed information about switch administration for your network.
IP Interface and Addresses

Follow these general guidelines:
Define the IP interfaces for each CLAN and Media processor circuit pack on the switch that uses the IP Interfaces screen. For more information, see Administration for Network Connectivity for Avaya Communication Manager (Document Number 555-233-504). On the Customer Options form, verify that the IP Stations field is set to y (Yes). If it is not, contact your Avaya sales representative. The IP Softphone field does not have to be set to y (Yes).
UDP Port Selection

The 9600 Series IP Deskphones can be administered from the Avaya Communication Manager Network Region form to support UDP port selection. Locate specific port assignment diagrams in the appropriate Avaya one-X Deskphone H.323 Installation and Maintenance Guide (Document Number 16-300694 for all but Release 6.0. For Release 6.0 covering the 9608, 9611G, 9621G, and 9641G deskphones, Document Number 16-603603). For information about Avaya Communication Manager implementation, see Administration for Network Connectivity for Avaya Communication Manager (Document Number 555-233-504) on the Avaya support Web site. Administer the switch to use a port within the proper range for the specific LAN, and the IP telephone(s) copy that port. If no UDP port range is administered on the switch, the IP telephone uses an even-numbered port, randomly selected from the interval 4000 to 10000.
Issue 8 August 2010
39
RSVP
Avaya IP Deskphones support the Resource ReSerVation Protocol (RSVP) for IPv4 audio connections only. The only way to enable RSVP is by appropriate switch administration. For more information, see your Avaya server administration documentation and Administration for Network Connectivity for Avaya Communication Manager (Document Number 555-233-504).
QoS
The 9600 Series IP Deskphones support both IEEE 802.1D/Q and DiffServ. Other network-based QoS initiatives such as UDP port selection do not require support by the telephones. However, they contribute to improved QoS for the entire network.
IEEE 802.1Q
The 9600 Series IP Deskphones can simultaneously support receipt of packets that are tagged, or not tagged, per the IEEE 802.1Q standard. To support IEEE 802.1Q, you can administer 9600 Series IP Deskphones from the network via LLDP, or by appropriate administration of the DHCP or HTTP/HTTPS servers. The four IEEE 802.IQ QoS parameters in the telephones that can be administered on the IP Network Region form are L2Q, L2QVLAN, L2QAUD, and L2QSIG. To set these parameters at the switch, see About Quality of Service (QoS) and voice quality administration in Administration for Network Connectivity for Avaya Communication Manager (Document Number 555-233-504). To set these parameters manually see the Avaya one-X Deskphone Edition for 9600 IP Telephones Installation and Maintenance Guide or the Avaya one-X Deskphone H.323 Installation and Maintenance Guide Release 6.0 for 9608, 9611G, 9621G, and 9641G Deskphones.
DIFFSERV
The DiffServ values change to the values administered on the call 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.
Voice Mail Integration
NAT
Network Address Translation (NAT) usage can lead to problems that affect the consistency of addressing throughout your network. All H.323 IP Deskphones 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 call 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.
Voice Mail Integration

9600 Series IP Deskphones with CM 4.0+ Native Support
Release 1.2 provides native support for 9600 Series IP Deskphones running on Avaya Communication Manager (CM) Release 4.0 or later. When native support applies, pressing the Messages button causes the telephone to first determine if the call server has a dedicated number for retrieving voice mail and when found, to proceed with voice mail retrieval.
9600 Series IP Telephones Aliased as 4600 Series IP Telephones

When native support does not apply, 9600 Series IP Deskphones are aliased as 4600 Series IP Telephones and run under CM Release 3.1 or later. In this case, use the settings file to configure the Messages button by setting the system parameter MSGNUM to any dialable string. MSGNUM examples are:
a standard telephone number the telephone should dial to access your voice mail system, such as AUDIX or Octel. a Feature Access Code (FAC) that allows users to transfer an active call directly to voice mail. FACs are supported only for QSIG-integrated voice mail systems like AUDIX or Octel. QSIG is an enhanced signaling system that allows the voice mail system and Avaya Communication Manager Automated Call Processing (ACP) to exchange information.
When the user presses the Messages button on the telephone, that number or FAC is automatically dialed, giving the user one-touch access to voice mail.
Issue 8 August 2010
41
The settings file specifies the telephone number to be dialed automatically when the user presses this button. The command is: SET MSGNUM 1234 where 1234 is the Voice Mail extension (CM hunt group or VDN). For more information, see Table 12. Note: MSGNUM is only used when the telephone is aliased using non-native support. Messaging must be configured for native support. A separate Voice Mail extension can be administered for each station.
Note:
Call Transfer Considerations

This section provides information about call transfer behaviors to consider when administering 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 the transfer is aborted. When the system parameter Abort Transfer? is set to No, the transfer proceeds normally even if the user presses a non-idle call appearance before the transfer is complete. When the system parameter Transfer Upon Hang-up is set to No, the user must press the Complete softkey after dialing the intended destination for the transfer to be completed. When the Transfer Upon Hang-up is set to Yes, the user can hang up immediately after dialing and the transfer proceeds normally.
The features Abort Transfer and Transfer Upon Hang-up can interact. If a user initiates a transfer, dials the destination, and hangs up without pressing the Complete softkey, the three possible outcomes are:
The transfer is completed. This is the case when Transfer Upon Hang-up is set to Yes, regardless of the Abort Transfer? setting. The transfer is aborted. This is the case when Transfer Upon Hang-up is set to No and Abort Transfer? is set to Yes. The transfer is denied. This is the case when Transfer Upon Hang-up is set to No and Abort Transfer? is set to No and the call appearance of the transferee remains on soft hold.
Conferencing Call Considerations
Attempts to transfer an outside call to an outside line are denied. However, the user can drop the denied destination and initiate a transfer to an internal destination. The call server feature, Toggle Swap, allows the user to swap the soft-held and setup call appearances. That is, the setup call appearance becomes soft-held, and the soft-held call appearance becomes active as the setup call appearance. This only works once the setup call appearance is connected on a call. If Toggle Swap is pressed while the setup call appearance has ringback, the call server sends a broken flutter to the setup call appearance. Toggle Swap is ignored without a broken flutter if pressed while the setup call appearance is still dialing. Toggle swapping the hold status of call appearances can be confusing to the user.
Conferencing Call Considerations

This section provides information about conference call behaviors to consider when administering 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 Conference Upon Hang-up is set to Yes, the user must dial and press the Complete softkey for the conference to be completed. If the user hangs up during conference setup before pressing Complete, the conference is cancelled with the held party remaining on [hard] hold. When the system parameter Abort Conference Upon Hang-up is set to No, the user can hang up immediately after dialing, dial a third party, then press the Complete softkey to have the conference proceed normally. When the system parameter No Dial Tone Conferencing is set to No, and the Conference or Add softkey is pressed, the call server automatically selects an idle call appearance for the user to dial on. This action allows the next conferee to be added. When the system parameter No Dial Tone Conferencing is set to Yes, the user must manually select a call appearance after pressing the Conference or Add softkey.
Conferencing behavior changes significantly when Select Line Conferencing is set to Yes, which automatically sets No Dial Tone Conferencing to Yes. Specifically:

If the user finishes dialing the intended conferee, pressing the initial call appearance completes the conference, as if the Join softkey was pressed. If the user has not finished dialing the intended conferee, pressing the initial call appearance (placed on soft hold when Conference or Add was pressed) cancels the conference set up. If the user presses the Conference or Add softkey, then immediately presses a hard-held call appearance, the previously held call appearance is retrieved from hold and joins the existing conference.
When the system parameter Select Line Conferencing is set to No, the user cancels the conference setup by pressing the call appearance on soft hold before pressing Join. Selecting
Issue 8 August 2010
43
a hard-held call appearance during conference setup establishes the held call as the intended conferee. For either Select Line Conferencing setting, if the user is in conference setup and answers an incoming call, the incoming call is established as the intended conferee; the user must press Join to add the answered call to the conference. If the user does not want the incoming call to be part of the conference, the call should not be answered, or the call can be answered and then hung up before continuing the conference setup. Pressing an in-use call appearance during conference setup makes that call appearance the intended conferee. The Toggle Swap feature works for Conference setup just like it does for Transfer Setup. For more information, see the last paragraph of Call Transfer Considerations.

System-Wide Administration
This section refers to Communication Manager (CM) administration on the Switch Administration Terminal (SAT) or by Avaya Site Administration. The system wide CM form and the particular page that needs to be administered for each feature are provided. These features, which already exist, are not required but are recommended because they optimize the telephone user interface. CM 3.1 or greater is required.
Feature-Related System Parameters

Release 1.5 supports the functionality introduced on Avaya Communication Manager Release 4.0 that allows call server administration of three system-wide parameters. By administering these parameters on CM, they can be automatically downloaded to the telephone during registration, instead of or in addition to from the settings file or locally per telephone. The three system parameters are: SNMP community string, SNMP Source IP addresses, and Craft

Access Code (PROCPSWD). Administer these three parameters using Page 3 of the change system-parameters ip-options form. Communication Manager Feature Administration Feature On-Hook Dialing Administration Set up CM so that the phone supports on-hook dialing. Use the System Parameters Features form page 10. Use the command Change system-parameters features to view the form and make the change. Set up CM to enable Auto Hold, so that the phone automatically places an active call on hold when the user answers or resumes a call on another call appearance. Use the System Parameters Features form, page 6. Administer a coverage path for both phone demonstration and normal operations. Use the Coverage Path form and give it a number, for example, Coverage path 1. If Voice Mail is available, this is also where you administer the hunt group or VDN, depending on the type of VM system being used. Enable enhanced conference display to support the user experience for conferences. Block Enhanced Conference Display on the Class of Restriction (COR) form must be set to No. Use the command Change COR, followed by a number, to view the form and make the change. a sample of the Class of Restriction form. If EC500 licenses have been acquired, enable EC500 on the Off-PBX Telephones Station Mapping form. This feature requires trunking to work properly.

Communication Manager Feature Administration (continued) Feature Wideband Audio Administration To enable Wideband Audio, use the Change IP codec: command on CM. Ensure that G.722-64K is first on the list of codecs. Note that wide band audio works only for direct-IP calls between two 96xx endpoints, either with both registered to the same server, or registered to different servers when connected by IP trunks. Calls between two 96xx phones connected by an IP trunk do not currently support wide band audio when the call is shuffled such that the media travels directly between the two 96xx IP Deskphones. Calls involving three or more parties, even if they are all 96xx IP Deskphones, will not use wide band. Calls between two 96xx IP Deskphones where audio is terminated at a port network/gateway (PN/GW) media resource will not use wideband. Ensure that G.722 is added to all codec-sets that can possibly be used between all regions on the IP-Network Regions form where 96xx IP Deskphones exist. Technically, G722 does not need to be first. What is needed, however, is that all the non media processor-supported codecs (G722, SIREN, etc.) be placed before the media processor-supported codecs (G711, G729, G726, G723). 2 of 2
Administering Stations

Administering Stations
This section refers to Communication Manager (CM) administration on the Switch Administration Terminal (SAT) or by Avaya Site Administration. Administer the following items on the Station form, sample screens of which are provided in Figure 6 through Figure 9. Avaya recommends setting the features covered in this section because they optimize the user interface. Release 1.5 supports the functionality introduced on Avaya Communication Manager Release 4.0 that allows call server administration of the GROUP parameter on a station-by-station basis. As covered in The GROUP Parameter on page 78, the GROUP Identifier can be used in conjunction with the 46xxsettings file to allow administration to apply to specific groups of telephones. Before Release 1.5, the Group Identifier had to be administered locally on each applicable telephone. As of Release 1.5, the Group Identifier can be administered centrally, and downloaded to each applicable telephone. The GROUP ID parameter is administered on page 3 of the Change Station Form. Once downloaded, the Group Identifier takes effect starting with the next telephone boot-up.

Aliasing 9600 Series IP Deskphones

If applicable, before administering stations be sure the deskphones are aliased according to the chart for Switch Compatibility and Aliasing IP Deskphones on page 37.
Administering Features
The following are administrable Station Features that Avaya recommends you administer for your 9600 Series IP Deskphones for maximum user experience. Administrable Station Features Feature Enhanced Conference Features Far End Mute Send All Calls (SAC) Administration Administer Conf-dsp (conference display) on the station form as a feature button. Doing so turns on enhanced conference features and gives users advanced conference features. Administer fe-mute (far end mute). When this is enabled the phone shows a Silence softkey on the Conference details screen. This feature works only for trunk calls. On the Station form, administer SAC (send-calls) as a feature button. On the Station form to the right of where send all calls is administered, leave the extension box empty. This feature requires a coverage path to be administered on the station form. For normal operation, you must set up a coverage path for each telephone. Administer the Station form to point to the appropriate system coverage path, for example, coverage path 1. Set Auto select any idle appearance to N (no) to optimize answering calls. Set Restrict Last Call Appearance to Y (yes). Set Conference/Transfer on Primary Appearance to Y (yes) to ensure that conference/transfer of a bridged appearance works properly.

Feature Buttons and Call Appearances

For the 9610 IP Telephone
The 9610 must be administered on releases earlier than CM3.1 as a 4610. On Release CM4.0 and later, administer the 9610 as a 9610. The 9610 has only one line appearance. As a consequence, you must follow these CM administration steps:
Administer the first call appearance/feature button on the CM Station form as a call appearance. Administer Directory, "Next," and Call-disp (the latter being shown as "Make Call" on the telephone) as the next three feature buttons. This is hard-coded on CM 4.0. Anything administered beyond the first six call appearances will be ignored. On CM4.0 the call appearance/feature button assignments are hard- coded.
!
Important:
Important: Set Restrict last appearance to n (no) on the Station form so that incoming calls can be placed and outgoing calls can be answered.
Note:
Note: A 9610 IP telephone does not reflect CM administrative changes until the telephone is reset/restarted. The 9610 does not support the SBM24 button module.
For the 9620/9620L/9620C IP Telephone

You can administer Feature/Call Appearance Buttons 1 12 on the CM Station form, which the telephone Feature screen then displays in sequence. The telephone does not display any of the Feature Button labels administered on buttons 13 24. The 9620 does not support the SBM24 Button Module.
For all other IP Deskphones

You can administer Feature/Call Appearance Buttons 1 24 on the CM Station form. The features administered on the Station form appear in the same sequence on the telephone Feature screen. Features administered on the Expansion Module SBM24/BM12 Call Appearance buttons display on the telephone Features screen following the first 24/12

Enhanced Phone Screen Display for Certain IP Deskphones

For the 9608, 9611G, and 9630/9630G/9640/9640G deskphones, if the system parameter FBONCASCREEN has value "1" the telephone determines the total number of call appearances (primary or bridged) that have been administered for the telephone (plus any adjunct button modules, if applicable). If the total number of call appearances is less than the number of Application Lines the deskphone supports, then all call appearances (primary or bridged) that have been administered for the telephone (including any adjunct button modules, if applicable) are displayed in order. The remaining Application Lines display the first administered feature buttons for the telephone, in order from top to bottom without any gaps. Note that this applies to administered feature buttons for the telephone only; administered feature buttons for any adjunct button module are not displayed on this list.
9650/9650C Aux Button Assignments

The 9650/9650C CM 4.0 Station form assigns buttons 4 to 11 to the Aux Labels 1 to 8, and buttons 12 to 19 to the shifted view of Aux buttons 9 to 16. CM button assignments 20-24 do not appear on the Aux button labels. Additionally, any call appearances that are assigned to CM buttons 4 through 24, like all the 96xx phones, appear on the Phone screen in a scrollable list. Any feature assigned to CM buttons 4 through 24, like the other 96xx phones, appears on the

features list (reached by pressing the left or right arrow key while viewing the call appearances screen on the phone).
Button Module(s) on the 9608, 9611G, 9630/9630G, 9640/9640G, 9641G, 9650/9650C, and 9670G
Use the applicable Station form to enable the SBM24 or BM12 Button (Expansion) Module(s) and administer Call Appearances as primary appearances, bridged appearances, or busy indicators. If the BM12 or SBM24 Call Appearance corresponding to the CM call-associated display message or dialed-digits string is not visible because the user is not on the Phone screen, the telephone Top Line displays the call-associated display message or dialed-digits string.
Conference Details Screen for Ad-Hoc Conferences

Conference Details allows the user to view parties on a conference call and selectively mute or drop individual parties for a conference call setup. If administered on an Expansion Module button, the BM12 or SBM24 Button Module must be connected.
To enable Conference Details capabilities:

1. On the Class of Restriction (COR) form make sure that Block Enhanced Conference/ Transfer Displays is set to No. 2. As described in On-Hook Dialing, administer the Conference Display Feature Button to a Phone button on the Phone screen.
Special Considerations for the 9650/9650C IP Telephone

Call appearances, bridged call appearances, or features can be displayed on the 16 Aux button labels. The telephone displays eight labels at a time on the bottom two rows of the screen. Users can toggle between the two sets of 8 labels using the Aux shift button to the right of the Aux labels.
The Aux button label area can fit 6-7 characters, depending on the width of the characters used. Cluster any call appearances together, bridged call appearances together, or similar features together. For example, keep "Director" "Next" and "Make Call" adjacent on the same Aux button row. Do not split like labels between the two sets of Aux buttons.
Administer features that are not directly usable by the user, such as enhanced conference display, on the Station Form on buttons 20 to 24. Call appearances display 5 digits with a reserved area for a call state icon. Under the A menu, the first two Call Settings items allow the users to set the phone to go to the Phone screen when the phone is ringing (Go to Phone Screen on Ringing) and/or when the user is dialing (Go to Phone Screen on Dialing). In general, Avaya recommends that you set both to Yes - except for users covering many bridged appearances who may prefer to set the Go to Phone Screen on Ringing option to No. Users can change these settings for themselves using the Call Settings submenu. Group similar types of Aux buttons together on one page (Aux buttons 1-8 or Aux buttons 9-16) if possible. - If the user has bridged call appearances on Aux buttons, assign the bridged lines to Aux buttons 1-8 or to Aux buttons 9-16. - If the user has AD buttons, put them on the same page, if possible. - Keep related features on the same page of Aux buttons. For example, keep Directory, Next, and Make call together on the same row of Aux button labels and do not split between Aux buttons 8 and 9, which represent two different pages.
Administer features that are not directly usable by the user, such as enhanced conference display on the Station form on buttons 20 to 24. Call appearances display 5 digits with a reserved area for a call state icon.
Special Considerations for Touchscreen Deskphones

The 9621G, 9641G, and 9670G deskphones support a "Quick Touch" panel that provides ease of access to any additional call appearances or switch features programmed on any of eight Quick Touch buttons. The Quick Touch panel is located at the bottom of the screen below the application area. The panel is distinguished visibly from the application area and serves as a container for the Quick Touch buttons. Quick Touch buttons are similar to the 9650s Aux buttons. Quick Touch buttons are on-screen objects that contain a text label and can have an associated graphic (icon) to indicate the status of the button's assigned feature; the available space is 8-9 characters. If the button is a call appearance, the status icon is on the left side; otherwise the status icon is on the right side. The basic appearance of a Quick Touch button resembles an actual physical button, and provides appropriate "pressed" (down) and "not pressed" (up) appearances. The Quick Touch Panel supports a maximum of eight Quick Touch buttons, arranged in two rows of up to four buttons each. Only buttons with assigned features are displayed, populated from left to right starting in the top row. The Quick Touch Panel is displayed on the Phone screen call appearance list and the Personalizing button labels option, when enabled by the associated user option (Home->
Issue 8 August 2010
53
Settings-> Options & Settings-> Screen & Sounds-> Show Quick-Touch Panel), even if it contains 0 buttons. If all or any buttons are empty, that should indicate to the user that some configuration or administration needs to be done. For the 9670, the user can select to display all eight, or no Quick Touch buttons; the 9621G and 9641G provide the option to display all eight, or four, or no Quick touch buttons.
Shuffling
Administer shuffling on three forms:
Feature-Related Parameters form, shown in Figure 10. Set the Direct IP-IP Audio Connections? field to y (yes). IP Network Region form, shown in Figure 14. Set both the Intra-region IP-IP Direct Audio field and the Inter-region IP-IP Direct Audio field to y (yes). Station form, shown in Figure 7. Set the Direct IP-to-IP Audio Connection to y (yes). The Station form setting overrides the network region, which overrides the system setting.
Wide Band Codecs

You must administer wide band codecs for each IP codec set and for IP network regions. See Appendix B: Sample Administration Forms for sample screens.
Chapter 5: Server Administration
Software Checklist
Ensure that you own licenses to use the DHCP, HTTP, and HTTPS server software. Note: You can install the DHCP and HTTP server software on the same machine.
Note:
! CAUTION:
CAUTION:
The firmware in the 9600 Series IP Deskphones reserves IP Addresses of the form 192.168.2.x for internal communications. The telephone(s) improperly use addresses you specify if they are of that form.
DHCP and File Servers

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) minimizes maintenance for a 9600 Series IP Telephone network by removing the need to individually assign and maintain IP Addresses and other parameters for each IP telephone on the network. Depending on administration, the DHCP server provides the following information to the 9600 Series IP Deskphones:

IP Address of the 9600 Series IP Telephone(s) IP Address of the Avaya call server IP Address of the HTTP or HTTPS file server The subnet mask IP Address of the router DNS Server IP Address
Administer the LAN so each IP telephone can access a DHCP server that contains the IP Addresses and subnet mask. The IP telephone cannot function without an IP Address. The IP Address reuse capability allows the phone to reuse its previous IP Address and parameter settings even if the DHCP server is temporarily unavailable. A user can manually assign a different IP Address to an IP telephone. When the DHCP server finally returns, the telephone never looks for a DHCP server unless the static IP data is unassigned manually. In addition, manual entry of IP data is an error-prone process.
Issue 8 August 2010

Server Administration
Avaya recommends that:

A minimum of two DHCP servers be available for reliability. A DHCP server be available when the IP telephone reboots. A DHCP server be available at remote sites if WAN failures isolate IP Deskphones from the central site DHCP server(s).
The file server provides the 9600 Series IP Telephone with a script file and, if appropriate, new or updated application software. See Step 3: VPN (optional) on page 21 under Telephone Initialization Process. In addition, you can edit an associated settings file to customize telephone parameters for your specific environment. For more information, see Chapter 7: Administering Telephone Options.
DHCP Server Administration

This section concentrates on the simplest case of the single LAN segment. Information provided here can be used for more complex LAN configurations.
! CAUTION:
CAUTION:
Before you start, understand your current network configuration. An improper installation will cause network failures or reduce the reliability and performance of your network.
Configuring DHCP
To administer DHCP option 242 (the default site-specific option, which applies to DHCPv4 only), make a copy of an existing option 176 for your 46xx IP Telephones. You can then either:
leave any parameters the 9600 Series IP Deskphones do not support for setting via DHCP in option 242 to be ignored, or delete unused or unsupported 9600 IP Series Telephone parameters to shorten the DHCP message length.
Only the following parameters can be set in the DHCP site-specific option for 96xx telephones, although most of them can be set in a 46xxsettings.txt file as well.
Table 8: Parameters Set by DHCP in a Site-Specific Option Parameter DNSSRVR DOMAIN DOT1X DOT1XSTAT HTTPDIR Description DNS server IP address(es). String that is appended to DNS names in parameter values when they are resolved into IP addresses. Controls the operational mode for 802.1X. The default is 0 (pass-through of multicast EAPOL messages to an attached PC, and enable Supplicant operation for unicast EAPOL messages). Controls 802.1X Supplicant operation. Specifies the path name to prepend to all file names used in HTTP and HTTPS GET operations during startup. (0 to 127 ASCII characters, no spaces.) The command is SET HTTPDIR myhttpdir. The path (relative to the root of the TLS or HTTP file server) where 96xx telephone files are stored. If an Avaya file server is used to download configuration files over TLS, but a different server is used to download software files via HTTP, set the path of the Avaya server in the DHCP site-specific option, and set HTTPDIR again in the 46xxsettings.txt file with the appropriate path for the second server. HTTPDIR is the path for all HTTP operations except for BRURI. Specifies the TCP port number to be used for HTTP file downloading. IP Address(es) or DNS name(s) of HTTP file server(s) used to download 96xx telephone software files. The files are digitally signed, so TLS is not required for security. Controls the extent to which ICMP Destination Unreachable messages are sent in response to messages sent to closed ports so as not to reveal information to potential hackers. The default is 1 (sends Destination Unreachable messages for closed ports used by traceroute). Controls whether ICMP Redirect messages are processed. The default is 0 (redirect messages are not processed). 802.1Q tagging mode. The default is 0 (automatic). VLAN ID of the voice VLAN. The default is 0. Controls the severity level of events logged in the SNMP MIB. The default is 7. CM server(s) IP Address(es) or DNS name(s). If there are too many addresses or names to include all of them in the DHCP site-specific option, include at least one from each major system. Then set MCIPADD again in the 46xxsettings.txt file with the complete list of addresses. Providing a subset of the addresses via DHCP improves reliability if the file server is not available due to server or network problems. IPv6 only. Controls whether IPv6 Neighbor Discovery Redirect messages will be processed. Controls the Ethernet line interface speed. The default is 1 (auto-negotiate). Controls the secondary Ethernet interface speed. The default is 1 (auto-negotiate). Security string used to access local procedures. The default is 27238 (CRAFT). Controls whether local (Craft) procedures are allowed. The default is 0 (access to all administrative options is allowed). The number of minutes the telephone waits before, and between, re-registration attempts. The number of seconds to wait for successful completion of DHCP before reusing previous parameters on the default (port) VLAN. The default is 60.

Table 8: Parameters Set by DHCP in a Site-Specific Option (continued) Parameter SIG Description The signaling protocol download flag that indicates which protocol applies (H.323 (1), SIP, (2) or Default (0). For software releases prior to 6.0, SIG can only be set manually on the telephone (not via DHCP or in the 46xxsettings.txt file), and Default means the default protocol supported at that location (a custom upgrade file is required to support both protocols). For software releases 6.0 and later, separate upgrade files with different names are used for H.323 and SIP, and Default means to download the upgrade file for the same protocol that is supported by the software that the telephone is currently using. Allowable source IP Address(es) for SNMP queries. The default is " " (Null). SNMP community name string. The default is " " (Null). Controls whether to use a manually-programmed file server or CM IP Address instead of those received via DHCP or a settings file. If a manually-programmed file server IP Address is to be used, STATIC must be set via DHCP. Specifies the path name prepended to all file names used in HTTPS GET operations during startup. Specifies the TCP port number used for HTTPS file downloading. IP Address(es) or DNS name(s) of Avaya file server(s) used to download configuration files. Note: Transport Layer Security is used to authenticate the server. Controls whether the identity of a TLS server is checked against its certificate. Specifies whether the telephone will attempt unnamed registration. Controls the length of time the telephone tries DHCP with a non-zero VLAN ID. When the interval is exceeded, the telephone records the VLAN ID so that it is not used again, and DHCP continues on the default VLAN. The default is 60 seconds.

The parameters in Table 8 are saved in a 9600 Series IP Telephones non-volatile memory. If the DHCP server is not available for any reason during telephone restart or reboot, the telephone uses these saved parameters.
DHCP Generic Setup

This document is limited to describing generic DCHPv4 and DHCPv6 administration that works with the 9600 Series IP Deskphones. Several DHCP software alternatives are common to Windows operating systems including:

Windows NT 4.0 DHCP Server Windows 2000 DHCP Server Windows 2003 DHCP Server
Any other DHCP application might work. It is the responsibility of the customer to install and configure the DHCP server correctly.
DHCP Server Setup

DHCP server setup involves: 1. Installing the DHCP server software according to vendor instructions. 2. Configuring the DHCP server with:

IP Addresses available for the 9600 Series IP Deskphones. The following DHCP options if IPv4 will be used: - Option 1 - Subnet mask. As described in Table 3, item 3. - Option 3 - Gateway (router) IP Address(es). As described in Table 3, item 1. If using more than one address, the total list can contain up to 255 total ASCII characters. You must separate IP Addresses with commas with no intervening spaces. - Option 6 - DNS server(s) address list. If using more than one address, the total list can contain up to 127 total ASCII characters. You must separate IP Addresses with commas with no intervening spaces. At least one address in Option 6 must be a valid, non zero, dotted decimal address. - Option 15 - DNS Domain Name. This string contains the domain name to be used when DNS names in system parameters are resolved into IP Addresses. This domain name is appended to the DNS name before the 9600 IP Telephone attempts to resolve the DNS address. Option 15 is necessary if you want to use a DNS name for the HTTP server. Otherwise, you can specify a DOMAIN as part of customizing HTTP as indicated in DNS Addressing on page 104. - Option 51 - DHCP lease time. If this option is not received, the DHCPOFFER is not be accepted. Avaya recommends a lease time of six weeks or greater. If this option has a value of FFFFFFFF hex, the IP Address lease is assumed to be infinite as per RFC 2131, Section 3.3, so that renewal and rebinding procedures are not necessary even if Options 58 and 59 are received. Expired leases cause Avaya IP Deskphones to reboot. Avaya recommends providing enough leases so an IP Address for an IP telephone does not change if it is briefly taken offline.
Issue 8 August 2010
59
Note:
Note: The DHCP standard states that when a DHCP lease expires, the device should immediately cease using its assigned IP Address. However, if the network has problems and the only DHCP server is centralized or if the DHCP server itself has problems, the telephone will not receive responses to its request for a renewal of the lease. In this case the telephone will not be usable until the server can respond. Avaya recommends that once assigned an IP Address, the telephone continues using that address after the DHCP lease expires, until a conflict with another device is detected. As Table 12: 9600 Series IP Telephone Customizable System Parameters indicates, the system parameter DHCPSTD allows an administrator to specify that the telephone will either: a). Comply with the DHCP standard by setting DHCPSTD to 1, or b). Continue to use its IP Address after the DHCP lease expires by setting DHCPSTD to 0. The latter case is the default. If the default is invoked, after the DHCP lease expires the telephone continues to broadcast DHCPREQUEST messages for its current IP address, and it sends an ARP Request for its own IP Address every five seconds. The messages continue to be sent until the telephone receives a DHCPACK, a DHCPNAK, or an ARP Reply. After receiving a DHCPNAK, or ARP Reply, the telephone displays an error message, sets its IP Address to 0.0.0.0, and attempts to contact the DHCP server again. Depending on the DHCP application you choose, be aware that the application most likely does not immediately recycle expired DHCP leases. An expired lease might remain reserved for the original client a day or more. For example, Windows NT DHCP reserves expired leases for about one day. This reservation period protects a lease for a short time. If the client and the DHCP server are in two different time zones, the clocks of the computers are not in sync, or the client is not on the network when the lease expires, there is time to correct the situation. The following example shows the implication of having a reservation period: Assume two IP Addresses, therefore two possible DHCP leases. Assume three IP Deskphones, two of which are using the two available IP Addresses. When the lease for the first two telephones expires, the third telephone cannot get a lease until the reservation period expires. Even if the other two telephones are removed from the network, the third telephone remains without a lease until the reservation period expires. - Option 52 - Overload Option, if desired. If this option is received in a message, the telephone interprets the sname and file fields in accordance with IETF RFC 2132, Section 9.3, listed in Appendix B: Related Documentation. - Option 58 - DHCP lease renew time. If not received or if this value is greater than that for Option 51, the default value of T1
(renewal timer) is used as per IETF RFC 2131, Section 4.5, listed in Related Documentation. - Option 59 - DHCP lease rebind time. If not received or if this value is greater than that for Option 51, the default value of T2 (rebinding timer) is used as per RFC 2131, Section 4.5 The 9600 Series IP Deskphones do not support Regular Expression Matching, and therefore, do not use wildcards. For more information, see Administering Options for the 9600 Series IP Telephones on page 81. In configurations where the upgrade script and application files are in the default directory on the HTTP server, do not use the HTTPDIR=<path>. - Option 242 - Site-Specific Option Number (SSON) You do not have to use Option 242. If you do not use this option, you must ensure that the key information, especially HTTPSRVR and MCIPADD, is administered appropriately elsewhere. An example of good DHCP administration is: - Option 242 for DHCP: MCIPADD=xxxx.xxx.xxx.xxx In Table 9, the 9600 Series IP Telephone sets the parameter values to the DHCPACK message field and option contents shown. Table 9: DHCPACK Setting of Parameter Values Parameter DOMAIN DHCP lease renew time DHCP lease rebind time DHCP lease time DNSSRVR HTTPSRVR TLSSRVR Set to If received, Option #15. Option #58 (if received). Option #59 (if received). Option #51 (if received). Option #6. The siaddr field, if that field is non-zero. The siaddr field, if that field is non-zero.
Since the DHCP site-specific option is processed after the DHCP fields and standard options, any values set in the site-specific option will supersede any values set via DHCP fields or standard options, as well as any other previously set values. Values that can be set using the DHCP site-specific option are listed in Table 8: Parameters Set by DHCP in a Site-Specific Option on page 57. Parameters L2Q, L2QVLAN, and PHY2VLAN are not set from a site-specific option if their values were previously set by LLDP. For more information, see Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP).

DHCPv6 Server Setup

!
Important:
DHCPv6 server setup involves: 1. Installing the DHCP server software according to vendor instructions. 2. Configuring the DHCP server to send a Vendor-Specific Information (VSI) option with an enterprise number of 6889 (the Avaya Enterprise Number). 3. Within that Vendor-Specific Information option, include a vendor-specific option with an opt-code of 242. 4. Set the option-data portion of the vendor-specific option with any or all of the applicable parameters listed in the bullet list that precedes this section for the DHCP site-specific option. Additionally, the following parameters that can be set in other numbered options by DHCP can also be set in the Avaya DHCPv6 vendor-specific option: DOMAIN and DNSSRVR. Since the vendor-specific option is processed after the DHCP fields and standard options, any values set via the VSI will supersede any values set via DHCP fields or standard options, as well as any other previously set values.
HTTP Generic Setup

You can store the same application software, script file, and settings file on an HTTP server as you can on a TFTP server. TFTP is not supported for 9600 Series IP Deskphones. With proper administration, the telephone seeks out and uses that material. Some functionality might be lost by a reset if the HTTP server is unavailable. For more information, see DHCP and File Servers on page 55.
! CAUTION:
CAUTION:
The files defined by HTTP server configuration must be accessible from all IP Deskphones invoking those files. Ensure that the file names match the names in the upgrade script, including case, since UNIX systems are case-sensitive. Note: Use any HTTP application you want. Commonly used HTTP applications include Apache and Microsoft IIS.
Note:
HTTP/HTTPS Configuration for Backup/Restore
!
Important:
Important: You must use the Avaya Web configuration server to obtain HTTPS so information is authenticated. The Avaya Web configuration server does not support backup/restore. If you intend to use HTTP for backup/restore purposes, you must use an HTTP server that is independent of the Avaya Web configuration server.
To set up an HTTP server:

Install the HTTP server application. Administer the system parameters HTTPSRVR and CODESRVR to the address(es) of the HTTP server. Include these parameters in DHCP Option 242, or the appropriate SSON Option. Download the upgrade script file and application file(s) from the Avaya Web site http://www.avaya.com/support to the HTTP server. For more information, see The GROUP Parameter on page 78. Note: Many LINUX servers distinguish between upper and lower case names. Ensure that you specify the settings file name accurately, as well as the names and values of the data within the file.
Note:
If you choose to enhance the security of your HTTP environment by using Transport Layer Security (TLS), you also need to:

Install the TLS server application. Administer the system parameter TLSSRVR to the address(es) of the Avaya HTTP server.

In addition to the procedures in this section, you can use the Avaya File Server Application for configuration, firmware file download, and backup/restore. You can download this application from http://www.avaya.com/support.

Internal Audio Parameters
Internal Audio Parameters

The system parameter AUDIOENV provides control of some internal audio parameters. Avaya does not recommend that customers set these values. In certain situations, particularly noisy environments, Avaya SSE may recommend a change in the AUDIOENV setting to reduce/ eliminate the effects environmental noise can have during telephone use. AUDIOENV is an index into a table that impacts four internal variables: Table 10: Internal Audio Variables Variable AGC_Dyn_Range Description AGC dynamic range. Possible Values 0 for a typical office environment (+/-9dB), 1 for +/-12dB, 2 for +/-15dB, and 3 for +/-18 AGC Dynamic range variation. The noise reduction threshold for the headset has a default value of 0 for a typical office environment, 1 for call center applications, 2 and 4 for increasingly noisy audio environments, and 3 where noise reduction is disabled. The noise reduction threshold for the handset has a default value of 0 for a typical office environment, 1 for call center applications, 2 and 4 for increasingly noisy audio environments, and 3 where noise reduction is disabled. Headset transmit gain has a default value of 0 for normal transmit gain, 1 for +6dB of gain, and 2 for -6dB of gain.
NR_thresh_Hd
The noise reduction threshold for the headset.
NR_thresh_Hs
The noise reduction threshold for the handset.
HD_Tx_Gain
Headset transmit gain.
AUDIOENV= a range of 0 to 299 beginning with Release 2.0. Set AUDIOENV 0 is the nominal setting (0,0,0,0). For more information, see Audio Quality Tuning for IP Telephones, Issue 2 on www.avaya.com/support.
IPv4 and/or IPv6 Operation

!
Important:
Issue 8 August 2010
71
As of software Release 6.0 (and later), Internet Protocol (IP) operation determination follows this order:

If NVVPNMODE parameter value is set to "1" (Yes) only IPv4 operation is enabled. If NVVPNMODE is set to "0" (No), the IPv6 status IPV6STAT parameter is checked to see if IPv6 is allowed; if set to "0" (No) then only IPv4 operation is enabled. If IPV6STAT is set to "1" (support IPv6), then the DHCPSTAT parameter is checked: - If DHCPSTAT is set to "1" (use DHCPv4 only) then IPv4 only is enabled. But if an IPv6 address was manually programmed, dual-stack operation is enabled. - If DHCPSTAT is set to "2" (use DHCPv6 only) then IPv6 only is enabled. But if an IPv4 address was manually programmed, dual-stack operation is enabled. - If DHCPSTAT is set to "3" (both IPv4 and IPv6 supported), then dual-stack operation is enabled.
If IPv4-only operation is enabled, any IPv6 address(es) configured as parameter values are ignored, and the next IPv4 address (if any) in a list of addresses is used. If the parameter value does not contain any IPv4 addresses, the value is treated as if it was null. If IPv6-only operation is enabled, any IPv4 address(es) configured as parameter values are ignored, and the next IPv6 address (if any) in a list of addresses is used. If the parameter value does not contain any IPv6 addresses, the value is treated as if it was null. The results of the determination are expressed in Table 11. Table 11: IP Enablement Results Manually programmed IPv4 address? IPV6STAT Manually programmed IPv6 address? DHCPSTAT Result Addressing Mode(s)
IPv4 No 0 1 n/a No n/a 1 2 3 1 or 3 2 IPv4 only IPv4 only IPv6 only dual-stack dual-stack IPv6 only DHCP DHCP n/a DHCP DHCP n/a

0 1
n/a 1 2 or 3 n/a
IPv4 only IPv4 only dual-stack dual-stack
manual manual manual manual
n/a n/a DHCPv6 manual
Yes
In general, if dual-stack operation is enabled, whether IPv4 or IPv6 is to be used to contact a server is determined by the value of the parameter that contains the server address(es). However, if the value is a DNS name and if DNS returns both an IPv4 and an IPv6 address, the one that will be used is controlled by the parameter IPPREF.
Features Not Supporting IPv6

The following features do not support IPv6 in H.323 software Release 6.0:

Chapter 6: Telephone Software and Application Files
General Download Process

The 9600 Series IP Deskphones download upgrade files, settings files, language files, certificate files, and software files from a file server. All of the file types can be downloaded either via HTTP or HTTPS except the software files, which can only be downloaded via HTTP. Avaya recommends HTTPS for downloading the non-software file types because it ensures the integrity of the downloaded file by preventing "man in the middle" attacks. Further, once trusted certificates are downloaded into the telephone, HTTPS ensures that the file server itself will be authenticated via a digital certificate. HTTPS is not used for software file downloads because 9600 Series IP Telephone software files are already digitally signed, so there is no need to incur additional processing overhead while downloading these relatively large files. Note: The files in the Software Distribution Packages discussed in this chapter are identical for file servers running HTTP and HTTPS. The generic term file server refers to a server running either HTTP or HTTPS.
Note:
When shipped from the factory, 9600 Series IP Deskphones might not contain the latest software. When the telephone is first plugged in, it will attempt to contact a file server, and will download new software if the software version available on the file server is different than the version on the phone. For subsequent software upgrades, the call server provides the capability to remotely reset the telephone, which then initiates the same process for contacting a file server. The telephone queries the file server, which, as of Software Release 6.0, transmits a 96x1Supgrade.txt file (SIP protocol) or 96x1Hupgrade.txt file (H.323 protocol) to the telephone based on the SIG parameter setting; software versions prior to Release 6.0 use a 96xxupgrade.txt file, which is not protocol-specific. The upgrade file tells the telephone which software files the telephone should use. The 9600 Series IP Deskphone then downloads a 46xxsettings.txt file. The settings file contains options you have administered for any or all of the IP Deskphones in your network. For more information about the settings file, see The GROUP Parameter on page 78. After the settings file has been downloaded, any language or certificate files required by the settings will be downloaded. Finally, any new software files will be downloaded, if necessary.

Telephone Software and Application Files
Choosing the Right Application File and Upgrade Script File

Software files needed to operate the 9600 Series IP Deskphones are packaged together in either a Zip format or RPM/Tar format distribution package. You download the package appropriate to your operating environment to your file server from the Avaya support Web site at: http://www.avaya.com/support based on the protocol you are using (H.323 or SIP) for all or the majority of your deskphones. H.323 software distribution packages contain:

one Upgrade file; all of the Display Text Language Files; all of the Voice Input Language Files (for 9600 Series IP Deskphone software releases earlier than Release 6.0); a file named "av_prca_pem_2033.txt" that contains a copy of the Avaya Product Root Certificate Authority certificate in PEM format that may be downloaded to telephones based on the value of the TRUSTCERTS parameter; a file named "release.xml" that is used by the Avaya Software Update Manager application.
Release 6.0 software distribution packages in Zip format also contain a signatures directory containing signature files and a certificate file to be used by the Avaya file server application on the Utility server. Customers using their own (non-Avaya) HTTP server can ignore or delete this directory. For detailed information about downloading files and upgrading telephone software, see the appropriate Avaya one-X Deskphone H.323 Installation and Maintenance Guide (Document Number 16-300694 for all but Release 6.0; for Release 6.0 covering the 9608, 9611G, 9621G, and 9641G deskphones, see Document Number 16-603603).
Changing the Signaling Protocol

For enterprises requiring both H.323- and SIP-based protocols, there are two ways to specify the protocol to be used by all or specific deskphones: 1. As of Release 6.0, the SIG parameter can be set in DHCP Option 242 (Site-Specific Option Number) or in the 46xxsettings.txt file. This setting will apply to all telephones except those for which SIG has been manually configured to a value of H.323 or SIP using the SIG Craft procedure. 2. The SIG parameter can be set on a per-phone basis using the SIG Craft procedure as described in the appropriate Avaya one-X Deskphone H.323 Installation and Maintenance Guide (Document Number 16-300694 for all but Release 6.0; for Release 6.0 covering the 9608, 9611G, 9621G, and 9641G deskphones, see Document Number 16-603603).
General Download Process
Upgrade File
The upgrade file tells the deskphone whether it needs to upgrade software. As of software Release 6.0, the upgrade file is either H.323-specific or SIP-specific. The deskphones attempt to read this file whenever they reset. The upgrade script file also points to the settings file. Avaya recommends that you do not alter the upgrade script file. If Avaya changes the upgrade script file in the future, any changes you have made will be lost. Avaya recommends that you use the 46xxsettings.txt file to customize your settings instead. However, you can change the settings file name, if desired, as long as you also edit the corresponding GET command in the upgrade script file.
Settings File
The settings file contains the option settings you need to customize the Avaya IP Deskphones for your enterprise. Note: You can use one settings file for all your Avaya IP Telephones. The settings file includes the 9600 Series IP Deskphones covered in this document and 4600 Series IP Telephones, as covered in the 4600 Series IP Telephone LAN Administrator Guide (Document Number 555-233-507).
Note:
The settings file can include any of six types of statements, one per line:

Tags, which are lines that begin with a single "#" character, followed by a single space character, followed by a text string with no spaces. Goto commands, of the form GOTO tag. Goto commands cause the telephone to continue interpreting the file at the next line after a # tag statement. If no such statement exists, the rest of the file is ignored. Conditionals, of the form IF $parameter_name SEQ string GOTO tag. Conditionals cause the Goto command to be processed if the value of the parameter named parameter_name exactly matches string. If no such parameter named parameter_name exists, the entire conditional is ignored. The only parameters that can be used in a conditional statement are: GROUP, MACADDR, MODEL and MODEL4. In pre-6.0 software releases, BOOTNAME and SIG could also be used. In software release 3.1 and later, VPNACTIVE can also be used. In software release 6.0 and later, SIG_IN_USE can also be used. SET commands, of the form SET parameter_name value. Invalid values cause the specified value to be ignored for the associated parameter_name so the default or previously administered value is retained. All values must be text strings, even if the value itself is numeric, a dotted decimal IP Address, and so on. Comments, which are any lines that do not conform to any of the previously described types of statements, including lines that begin with more than one "#" character.
Issue 8 August 2010
77
Note:
Note:
Enclose all data in quotation marks for proper interpretation.
GET commands, of the form GET filename. The telephone will attempt to download the file named by filename, and if it is successfully obtained, it will be interpreted as an additional settings file, and no additional lines will be interpreted in the original file. If the file cannot be obtained, the telephone will continue to interpret the original file.
Download the 46xxsettings.txt template file from support.avaya.com and edit it to add your own custom settings. See Chapter 7: Administering Telephone Options for details about specific values. You need only specify settings that vary from defaults, although specifying defaults is harmless.
The GROUP Parameter

You might have different communities of users, all of which have the same telephone model, but which require different administered settings. For example, you might want to restrict Call Center agents from being able to Logoff, which might be an essential capability for hot-desking associates. We provide examples of the group settings for each of these situations later in this section. Use the GROUP parameter for this purpose: 1. identify which telephones are associated with which group, and designate a number for each group. The number can be any integer from 0 to 999, with 0 as the default, meaning your largest group is assigned as Group 0. 2. The GROUP parameter can only be set either at each individual telephone or when a telephone with Software Release 1.5 or greater is registered to an Avaya Communication Manager (CM) server with CM Release 4.0 or greater. In the former case, the GROUP Craft (local administrative) procedure must be invoked as specified in the Avaya one-X Deskphone Edition for 9600 IP Telephones Installation and Maintenance Guide. In the latter case, GROUP is administrable on a phone-by-phone basis on the CM Station Form. 3. Once the GROUP assignments are in place, edit the configuration file to allow each telephone of the appropriate group to download its proper settings. Here is an example of the configuration file for the Call Center agent: IF $GROUP SEQ 1 goto CALLCENTER IF $GROUP SEQ 2 goto HOTDESK

Chapter 7: Administering Telephone Options
Administering Options for the 9600 Series IP Telephones

This chapter explains how to change parameter values by means of the DHCP or HTTP servers. Table 12 lists:

the parameter names, their default values, the valid ranges for those values, and a description of each one.
For DHCP, DHCP fields and options set these parameters to the desired values as discussed in DHCP and File Servers on page 55. For HTTP, the parameters in Table 12 are set to desired values in the settings file. For more information, see Settings File on page 77. Avaya recommends that you administer most parameters on the 9600 Series IP Deskphones using the settings file. Some DHCP applications have limits on the amount of user-specified information. The administration required can exceed those limits for the more full-featured telephone models. You might choose to completely disable the capability to enter or change option settings from the dialpad. 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, as of Communication Manager Release 4.0. If PROCPSWD is non-null and consists of 1 to 7 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 one-X Deskphone Edition for 9600 IP Telephones Installation and Maintenance Guide.

Administering Telephone Options
! CAUTION:
CAUTION:
If you administer PROCPSWD as part of DHCP/HTTP administration, the value is stored and transmitted unencrypted. Therefore, do not consider PROCPSWD as a high-security technique to inhibit a sophisticated user from obtaining access to local procedures unless you administer it using page 3 of the system-parameters IP-options form, as of Avaya Communication Manager Release 4.0. Administering this password limits access to all local procedures, including VIEW. VIEW is a read-only Craft option that allows review of the current telephone settings. Note: All system parameters related to Virtual Private Network (VPN) setup and maintenance are described in the VPN Setup Guide for 9600 Series IP Telephones (Document # 16-602968).

Zero to 255 ASCII characters: zero or one URL or the word "default". 18 of 18 Note: Unless otherwise indicated, Table 12 applies to all 9600 Series IP Deskphones. Certain 9600 IP Deskphones might have additional, optional information that you can administer. For more information, see Chapter 8: Administering Applications and Options.
Note:
VLAN Considerations
This section contains information on how to administer 9600 Series IP Deskphones to minimize registration time and maximize performance in a Virtual LAN (VLAN) environment. If your LAN environment does not include VLANs, set the system parameter L2Q to 2 (off) to ensure correct operation.
VLAN Tagging
IEEE 802.1Q tagging (VLAN) is a useful method of managing VoIP traffic in your LAN. Avaya recommends that you establish a voice VLAN, set L2QVLAN to the VLAN ID of that VLAN, and provide voice traffic with priority over other traffic. If LLDP was used set the telephones VLAN, that setting has absolute authority. Otherwise, you can set VLAN tagging manually, by DHCP, or in the 46xxsettings.txt file. If VLAN tagging is enabled (L2Q=0 or 1), the 9600 Series IP Deskphones set the VLAN ID to L2QVLAN, and VLAN priority for packets from the telephone to L2QAUD for audio packets and L2QSIG for signalling packets. The default value (6) for these parameters is the recommended value for voice traffic in IEEE 802.1D. Regardless of the tagging setting, a 9600 Series IP Telephone will always transmit packets from the telephone at absolute priority over packets from the secondary Ethernet interface (i.e., from an attached PC). The priority settings are useful only if the downstream equipment is administered to give the voice VLAN priority.

Important:
Important: VLAN tags are always removed from frames that egress (go out of) the secondary Ethernet interface because many PCs will ignore tagged frames.

VLAN Default Value and Priority Tagging

The parameter L2QVLAN identifies the 802.1Q VLAN Identifier and is initially set to "0". This default value indicates priority tagging and specifies that your network Ethernet switch automatically insert the default VLAN ID without changing the user priority of the frame. But some switches do not understand a VLAN ID of zero and require frames tagged with a non-zero VLAN ID. If you do not want the default VLAN to be used for voice traffic set the value of L2QVLAN to the VLAN ID appropriate for your voice LAN. Another parameter you can administer is VLANTEST. VLANTEST defines the number of seconds the 9600 IP Series Telephone waits for a DHCPOFFER message when using a non-zero VLAN ID. The VLANTEST default is 60 seconds. Using VLANTEST ensures that the telephone returns to the default VLAN if an invalid VLAN ID is administered or if the phone moves to a port where the L2QVLAN value is invalid. The default value is long, allowing for the scenario that a major power interruption is causing the phones to restart. Always allow time for network routers, the DHCP servers, etc. to be returned to service. If the telephone restarts for any reason and the VLANTEST time limit expires, the telephone assumes the administered VLAN ID is invalid. The telephone then initiates operation with a VLAN ID of 0 or, if the value of L2Q is "0" (auto), tagging will be turned off until the L2QVLAN is set to a non-zero value, or until the telephone verifies that the network can support tagged frames.. Setting VLANTEST to 0 has the special meaning of telling the phone to use a non-zero VLAN indefinitely to attempt DHCP. In other words, the telephone does not return to the default VLAN.
VLAN Detection
The deskphones support automatic detection of the condition where the L2QVLAN setting is incorrect. When the value of L2QVLAN is not 0 and VLAN tagging is enabled (L2Q= 0 or 1) initially the 9600 Series IP Telephone transmits DHCP messages with IEEE 802.1Q tagging and the VLAN ID is set to L2QVLAN. The telephones will continue to do this for VLANTEST seconds.
If L2Q=1 and the VLANTEST timer expires because a DHCPOFFER has not been received, the telephone sets L2QVLAN=0 and transmits DHCP messages with the default VLAN (0). If L2Q=0 and the VLANTEST timer expires because a DHCPOFFER has not been received, the telephone sets L2QVLAN=0 and transmits DHCP messages without tagging. If VLANTEST is 0, the timer will never expire.
VLAN Considerations
Note:
Note: Regardless of the setting of L2Q, VLANTEST, or L2QVLAN, you must have DHCP administered so that the telephone will get a response to a DHCPDISCOVER when it makes that request on the default (0) VLAN. After VLANTEST expires, if an Avaya IP Telephone running R1.2 receives a non-zero L2QVLAN value, the telephone will release the IP Address and send DHCPDISCOVER on that VLAN. Any other release will require a manual reset before the telephone will attempt to use a VLAN on which VLANTEST has expired. See the Reset procedure in Chapter 3 of the Avaya one-X Deskphone H.323 Installation and Maintenance Guide. The telephone ignores any VLAN ID administered on the call server if a non-zero VLAN ID is administered either: - by LLDP, - manually, - through DHCP, and/or - in the settings file.
VLAN Separation
VLAN separation is available to control access to the voice VLAN from the secondary Ethernet interface, and to control whether broadcast traffic from the data VLAN is forwarded to the phone. The following system parameters control VLAN separation:

VLANSEP - enables (1) or disables (0) VLAN separation. L2QVLAN - specifies the voice VLAN ID to be used by the telephone. PHY2VLAN - specifies the VLAN ID to be used for frames forwarded to the network from the secondary Ethernet interface. PHY2PRIO - the layer 2 priority value to be used for tagged frames forwarded to the network from the secondary Ethernet interface.
Table 13 provides several VLAN separation guidelines.
Issue 8 August 2010
101
Note:
Note: The 9610 IP Telephone does not support full VLAN separation because it has no secondary Ethernet interface and therefore never has PHY2VLAN and PHY2PRIO values.
Table 13: VLAN Separation Rules If VLANSEP is 1 (On/Enabled) AND the deskphone is tagging frames with a VLAN ID not equal to PHY2VLAN, AND the PHY2VLAN value is not zero. Then Tagged Frames received on the secondary Ethernet interface: Tagged frames received on the secondary Ethernet interface are changed/not changed as follows: If a Gigabit Ethernet Adapter is not being used, tagged frames with a VLAN ID of zero (priority-tagged frames) will be changed before they are forwarded such that the VLAN ID of the forwarded frame is equal to the PHY2VLAN value and the priority value is equal to the PHY2PRIO value. If a Gigabit Ethernet Adapter is being used, tagged frames with a VLAN ID of zero will not be changed before they are forwarded. Untagged frames received on the secondary Ethernet interface are not changed before forwarding to the network. Tagged Frames received on the line interface: Tagged frames received on the Ethernet line interface will only be forwarded to the secondary Ethernet interface if the VLAN ID equals PHY2VLAN. Tagged frames received on the Ethernet line interface will only be forwarded to the deskphone if the VLAN ID equals the VLAN ID used by the deskphone. Untagged frames are not changed will continue to be forwarded or not forwarded as determined by the Ethernet switch forwarding logic. Tagged frames with a VLAN ID of zero (priority-tagged frames) will be forwarded to the secondary Ethernet interface or to the deskphone as determined by the forwarding logic of the Ethernet switch, but the tag will still be removed from frames that egress from the secondary Ethernet interface. 1 of 3
VLAN Considerations
Table 13: VLAN Separation Rules (continued) If VLANSEP is 1 (On/Enabled) AND the deskphone is not tagging frames, OR if the deskphone is tagging frames with a VLAN ID equal to PHY2VLAN, OR if the PHY2VLAN value is zero. VLANSEP is 0, OR the deskphone is not tagging frames, OR the deskphone is tagging frames with a VLAN ID equal to PHY2VLAN. Then Frames forwarded to the network from the secondary Ethernet interface will not be changed before forwarding. Tagging is not added or removed and the VLAN ID and priority does not change for frames received on the secondary interface. Tags are still removed for frames that egress from the secondary interface. The Ethernet switch forwarding logic determines whether frames received on the Ethernet line interface are forwarded to the secondary Ethernet interface or to the deskphone without regard to specific VLAN IDs or the existence of tags. Frames forwarded to the network from the secondary Ethernet interface will not be changed before forwarding. Tagging is not added or removed and the VLAN ID and priority does not change for frames received on the secondary interface. Tags are still removed for frames that egress from the secondary interface. The Ethernet switch forwarding logic determines whether frames received on the Ethernet line interface are forwarded to the secondary Ethernet interface or to the deskphone without regard to specific VLAN IDs or the existence of tags. All tagged frames received on the secondary Ethernet interface are changed before forwarding to make the VLAN ID equal to the PHY2VLAN value and the priority value equal to the PHY2PRIO value. Untagged frames received on the secondary Ethernet interface are not changed before forwarding. If a Gigabit Ethernet Adapter is not being used, tagged frames with a VLAN ID of zero (priority-tagged frames) will be changed before they are forwarded such that the VLAN ID of the forwarded frame is equal to the PHY2VLAN value and the priority value is equal to the PHY2PRIO value. If a Gigabit Ethernet Adapter is being used, tagged frames with a VLAN ID of zero will not be changed before they are forwarded. 2 of 3

VLANSEP is 1 (On/Enabled) AND the telephone is tagging frames with a VLAN ID not equal to PHY2VLAN, AND the PHY2VLAN value is not zero. Then The Ethernet switch forwarding logic determines that frames received on the Ethernet line interface are forwarded to the secondary Ethernet interface or to the telephone without regard to specific VLAN IDs or the existence of tags. Frames received on the secondary Ethernet interface will not be changed before forwarding. In other words, tagging is not added or removed, and the VLAN ID and priority of tagged frames is not changed. Tagged frames received on the Ethernet line interface will only be forwarded to the secondary Ethernet interface if the VLAN ID equals PHY2VLAN. Tagged frames received on the Ethernet line interface will only be forwarded to the telephone if the VLAN ID equals the VLAN ID used by the telephone. Untagged frames will continue to be forwarded or not forwarded as determined by the Ethernet switch forwarding logic. Tagged frames with a VLAN ID of zero (priority-tagged frames) will either be: - forwarded to the secondary Ethernet interface or the telephone as determined by the forwarding logic of the Ethernet switch (preferred), or - dropped. 3 of 3
DNS Addressing
The 9600 IP Deskphones support DNS addresses, dotted decimal addresses, and as of Release 6.0, colon-hex addresses. The telephone attempts to resolve a non-ASCII-encoded dotted decimal IP Address by checking the contents of DHCP Option 6. See DHCP Generic Setup on page 58 for information. At least one address in Option 6 must be a valid, non-zero, dotted decimal address, otherwise, DNS fails. The text string for the DOMAIN system parameter (Option 15, Table 12) is appended to the address(es) in Option 6 before the telephone attempts DNS address resolution. If Option 6 contains a list of DNS addresses, those addresses are queried in the order given if no response is received from previous addresses on the list. As an alternative to administering DNS by DHCP, you can specify the DNS server and/ or Domain name in the HTTP script file. But first SET the DNSSRVR and DOMAIN values so you can use those names later in the script.
IEEE 802.1X
Note:
Note: Administer Options 6 and 15 appropriately with DNS servers and Domain names respectively.
IEEE 802.1X
9600 Series IP Deskphones support the IEEE 802.1X standard for Supplicant operation , and support pass-through of 802.1X messages to an attached PC; one exception is the 9610, which does not have a secondary Ethernet interface. The system parameter DOT1X determines how the telephones handle pass-through of 802.1X multicast packets and proxy logoff, as follows:
When DOT1X = 0, the telephone forwards 802.1X multicast packets from the Authenticator to the PC attached to the telephone and forwards multicast packets from the attached PC to the Authenticator (multicast pass-through). Proxy Logoff is not supported. This is the default value. When DOT1X = 1, the telephone supports the same multicast pass-through as when DOT1X=0, but Proxy Logoff is also supported. When the secondary Ethernet interface loses link integrity, the telephone sends an 802.1X EAPOL-Logoff message to the Authenticator with a source MAC address from the previously attached device. This message alerts the Authenticator that the device is no longer connected. When DOT1X = 2, the telephone forwards multicast packets from the Authenticator only to the telephone, ignoring multicast packets from the attached PC (no multicast pass-through). Proxy Logoff is not supported. Regardless of the DOT1X setting, the telephone always properly directs unicast packets from the Authenticator to the telephone or its attached PC, as dictated by the destination MAC address in the packet.
All 96xx telephones support Supplicant operation as specified in IEEE 802.1X, but, as of software Release 2.0, only if the value of the parameter DOT1XSTAT is 1 or 2. If DOT1XSTAT has any other value, Supplicant operation is not supported. IP telephones will respond to unicast 802.1X frames (frames with the telephones MAC address as the destination MAC address, and a protocol type of 88-8E hex) received on the Ethernet line interface if the value of DOT1XSTAT is 1 or 2, but will only respond to 802.1X frames that have the PAE group multicast address as the destination MAC address if the value of DOT1XSTAT is 2. If the value of DOT1XSTAT is changed to 0 from any other value after the Supplicant has been authenticated, an EAPOL-Logoff will be transmitted before the Supplicant is disabled. As of software Release 2.0, the system parameter DOT1XSTAT determines how the telephone handles Supplicants as follows:

When DOT1XSTAT = 0, Supplicant operation is completely disabled. This is the default value. When DOT1XSTAT = 1, Supplicant operation is enabled, but responds only to received unicast EAPOL messages.
Issue 8 August 2010
105
When DOT1XSTAT = 2, Supplicant operation is enabled and responds to received unicast and multicast EAPOL messages. Note: If the Ethernet line interface link fails, the 802.1X Supplicant, if enabled, enters the Disconnected state.
Note:
802.1X Supplicant Operation

9600 IP Deskphones that support Supplicant operation also support Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP), but only with the MD5-Challenge authentication method as specified in IETF RFC 3748 [8.5-33a]. A Supplicant identity (ID) and password of no more than 12 numeric characters are stored in reprogrammable non-volatile memory. The ID and password are not overwritten by telephone software downloads. The default ID is the MAC address of the telephone, converted to ASCII format without colon separators, and the default password is null. Both the ID and password are set to defaults at manufacture. EAP-Response/Identity frames use the ID in the Type-Data field. EAP-Response/MD5-Challenge frames use the password to compute the digest for the Value field, leaving the Name field blank. When a telephone is installed for the first time and 802.1x is in effect, the dynamic address process prompts the installer to enter the Supplicant identity and password. The IP telephone does not accept null value passwords. See Dynamic Addressing Process in the Avaya one-X Deskphone H.323 for 9600 Series IP Telephones Installation and Maintenance Guide. The IP telephone stores 802.1X credentials when successful authentication is achieved. Post-installation authentication attempts occur using the stored 802.1X credentials, without prompting the user for ID and password entry. An IP telephone can support several different 802.1X authentication scenarios, depending on the capabilities of the Ethernet data switch to which it is connected. Some switches may authenticate only a single device per switch port. This is known as single-supplicant or port-based operation. These switches typically send multicast 802.1X packets to authenticating devices. These switches support the following three scenarios:
Standalone telephone (Telephone Only Authenticates) - When the IP telephone is configured for Supplicant Mode (DOT1XSTAT=2), the telephone can support authentication from the switch. Telephone with attached PC (Telephone Only Authenticates) - When the IP telephone is configured for Supplicant Mode (DOT1X=2 and DOT1XSTAT=2), the telephone can support authentication from the switch. The attached PC in this scenario gains access to the network without being authenticated. Telephone with attached PC (PC Only Authenticates) - When the IP telephone is configured for Pass-Through Mode or Pass-Through Mode with Logoff (DOT1X=0 or 1 and DOT1XSTAT=0), an attached PC running 802.1X supplicant software can be authenticated by the data switch. The telephone in this scenario gains access to the network without being authenticated.
Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP)
Some switches support authentication of multiple devices connected through a single switch port. This is known as multi-supplicant or MAC-based operation. These switches typically send unicast 802.1X packets to authenticating devices. These switches support the following two scenarios: Standalone telephone (Telephone Only Authenticates) - When the IP telephone is configured for Supplicant Mode (DOT1XSTAT=2), the telephone can support authentication from the switch. When DOT1X is 0 or 1 the telephone is unable to authenticate with the switch. Telephone and PC Dual Authentication - Both the IP telephone and the connected PC can support 802.1X authentication from the switch. The IP telephone may be configured for Pass-Through Mode or Pass-Through Mode with Logoff (DOT1X=0 or 1 and DOT1XSTAT=1 or 2). The attached PC must be running 802.1X supplicant software.

Release 1.2 and later 9600 Series IP Deskphones support IEEE 802.1AB. Note: As of software Release 6.0, LLDP is supported only for IPv4 mode.
Note:
Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) is an open standards layer 2 protocol IP telephones use to advertise their identity and capabilities and to receive administration from an LLDP server. LAN equipment can use LLDP to manage power, administer VLANs, and provide some administration. The transmission and reception of LLDP is specified in IEEE 802.1AB-2005. The 9600 Series IP Deskphones use Type-Length-Value (TLV) elements specified in IEEE 802.1AB-2005, TIA TR-41 Committee - Media Endpoint Discovery (LLDP-MED, ANSI/TIA-1057), and Proprietary elements. LLDP Data Units (LLDPDUs) are sent to the LLDP Multicast MAC address (01:80:c2:00:00:0e). These telephones:

do not support LLDP on the secondary Ethernet interface. will not forward frames received with the 802.1AB LLDP group multicast address as the destination MAC address between the Ethernet line interface and the secondary Ethernet interface.

On receipt of a LLDPDU message, the deskphones will act on the TLV elements described in Table 15: Table 15: Impact of TLVs Received by 9600 Series IP Deskphones on System Parameter Values System Parameter Name PHY2VLAN L2QVLAN and L2Q TLV Name IEEE 802.1 Port VLAN ID IEEE 802.1 VLAN Name
Impact The value is changed to the Port VLAN identifier in the TLV. The value is changed to the TLV VLAN Identifier. L2Q will be set to 1 (ON). VLAN Name TLV is only effective if: The telephone is not registered with the Call Server. Name begins with VOICE (case does not matter). The VLAN is not zero. DHCP Client is activated. The telephone is registered but is not tagging layer 2 frames with a non-zero VLAN ID. If VLAN Name causes the telephone to change VLAN and the telephone already has an IP Address the telephone will release the IP Address and reset. If the TLV VLAN ID matches the VLAN ID the telephone is using, the VLAN ID is marked as set by LLDP. Otherwise, if already registered, the telephone waits until there are no active calls, releases its IP Address, turns on tagging with the TLV VLAN ID, sets L2Q to "on," changes the default L2Q to "on," and resets. If there is no valid IP Address, the telephone immediately starts tagging with the new VLAN ID without resetting.

L2QAUD and L2QSIG - set to the Layer 2 Priority value in the TLV. DSCPAUD and DSCPSIG - set to the DSCP value in the TLV. A check is made as to whether a reset is necessary to obtain a new IP address due to a change in the values of the parameters L2Q or L2QVLAN. This TLV is ignored if: the value of USE_DHCP is 0 and the value of IPADD is not 0.0.0.0, or the Application Type is not 1 (Voice), or the Unknown Policy Flag (U) is set to 1.

Table 15: Impact of TLVs Received by 9600 Series IP Deskphones on System Parameter Values (continued) System Parameter Name TLV Name Proprietary - PoE Conservation TLV
Impact This proprietary TLV can initiate a power conservation mode. The telephones that support this will turn on/off the telephone backlight and the backlight of an attached Button Module in response to this TLV. Exception: the 9670G display backlight is put into low-power mode rather than being turned off. Power conservation mode will be enabled if the received binary Power Source value is 10, and power conservation mode will be disabled if the received binary Power Source value is not 10. Power conservation mode is enabled even if the telephone is not powered over Ethernet because the telephone sends information about the power source that it is using in a TIA LLDP MED Extended Power-Via-MDI TLV; it is assumed that the power management system intends to conserve local power as well.

Local Administrative Options Using the Telephone Dialpad

The Avaya one-X Deskphone Edition for 9600 IP Telephones Installation and Maintenance Guide details how to use Craft local procedures at the telephone for administration. The local procedures you might use most often as an administrator are:
CLEAR - Remove all administered values, user-specified data, option settings, etc. and return a telephone to its initial out of the box default values. DEBUG - Enable or disable debug mode for the button module serial port. GROUP - Set the group identifier on a per-phone basis. INT - Set or change the interface control value(s) of PHY1STAT and/or PHY2STAT. RESET - Reset the telephone to default values including any values administered through local procedures, and values previously downloaded using DHCP or a settings file. RESTART - Restart the telephone in response to an error condition, including the option to reset parameter values. VIEW - Review the 9600 IP Telephone system parameters to verify current values and file versions. INT - Secondary Ethernet (Hub) Interface Enable/Disable - Enable or disable the secondary Ethernet hub locally.
Language Selection
Language Selection
9600 Series IP Deskphones are factory-set to display information in the English language. As of Release 1.1, all software downloads include language files for 13 additional languages. Software Release 1.2 added support for a large font version of English only and Release 1.5 added Arabic to the language file download. Administrators can specify from one to four languages per telephone to replace English. End users can then select which of those languages they want their telephone to display. All downloadable language files contain all the information needed for the telephone to present the language as part of the user interface. For the 9670G IP Telephone, this includes an indication of the character to be used as a decimal "point" in numeric values and an indication of the character, if any, to be used as a separator (thousands, millions, etc.) in numeric values (no character or a space character must be usable as well as punctuation characters). There are no dependencies between the languages available from the software download and the actual character input method. If a character input method is not supported, ASCII is used instead. Acceptable input methods are as follows:

ASCII Latin-1 German French Italian Spanish Portuguese Russian Albanian, Azeri, Turkish
Croatian, Slovenian Czech, Slovak Estonian Hungarian Latvian Lithuanian Polish Romanian
Use the configuration file and these parameters to customize the settings for up to four languages: LANGxFILE - The name of a selected language file, for example, "French". In addition to providing the language name as this value, replace the "x" in this parameter with a "1", "2", "3", or "4" to indicate which of four languages you are specifying. For example, to indicate German and French are the available languages, the setting is: LANG1FILE=mlf_german.txt and LANG2FILE=mlf_french.txt. LANG0STAT - Allows the user to select the built-in English language when other languages are downloaded. If LANG0STAT is "0" and at least one language is downloaded, the user cannot select the built-in English language. If LANG0STAT is "1" the user can select the built-in English language text strings. LANGSYS - The file name of the system default language file, if any. LANGLARGEFONT - The name of the language file you want available for a "large font" display, currently only "English." As of Release 1.2, a large text font is available for user selection on all 9600 Series IP Telephones but the 9610. The larger text font can only be activated if a language file for this font
Issue 8 August 2010
113
is available. The Text Size option is presented to the telephone user if and only if the parameter LANGLARGEFONT is not null and if a language file for that value is being used as the current user interface language. If neither condition is met, the Text Size option is not presented to the user. For example, if the language in use is English, and a large text font language file for English is specified in LANGLARGEFONT and available, the Text Size option is presented on the Screen and Sounds Options screen. For more information, see 9600 Series IP Telephone Customizable System Parameters. To view multiple language strings, see the MLS local procedure in the Avaya one-X Deskphone Edition for 9600 Series IP Telephones Installation and Maintenance Guide. To download a language file or review pertinent information, go to http://support.avaya.com/unicode. Note: Specifying a language other than English in the configuration file has no impact on Avaya Communication Manager settings, values, or text strings.
Note:
Administering Voice-Initiated Dialing

As of software Release 2.0, all 9600 Series IP Deskphones with a speakerphone microphone (all except the 9610) are capable of voice-initiated dialing. Note: Telephones introduced in software Release 6.0 (9608, 9611G, 9621G, and 9641G) do not support the voice dialing feature.
Note:
All 96xx telephone software distribution packages include a voice language file for each of the supported languages. Administer the system parameter VOXFILES to identify the voice language file(s) you want available to your end users. All downloadable VOX language files contain data files that allow the telephone to perform the following tasks for the associated language:

Accept a user's verbal input of keywords and Names. Search the local Contacts list of Names. Return zero, one, or more prospective matching Contacts entries.
Each voice language file has a file name beginning with three characters that indicate the language supported and ending with .tar. The available languages and corresponding three-character filename designations are as follows: Language Brazilian Portuguese European Spanish Dutch Initial Characters of the Filename PTB SPE DUN
Gigabit Ethernet Adapter
German Italian Parisian French U.K. English U.S. English
GED ITI FRF ENG ENU
Two voice-initiated dialing settings are available to end users by the Avaya Menu -> Call Settings option. They are Voice Dialing and Voice Dialing Language, which allow the end user to enable/disable voice-initiated dialing and select one of the voice languages you administered using the VOXFILES parameter for voice dialing, respectively. The user guide for each applicable telephone model describes the voice-initiated dialing user interface.
Gigabit Ethernet Adapter

As of Release 1.1, 9600 Series IP Telephones can accommodate a Gigabit Ethernet (GigE) Adapter. Release 1.5 introduced the 9630G and 9640G IP Telephones, which contain a built-in gigabit Ethernet adapter. Release 2.0 introduced the 9670G IP Telephone, which also contains a built-in gigabit Ethernet adapter. Release 6.0 introduced the 9611G, 9621G, and 9641G IP Deskphones which contain built-in GigE adapters. When connected to an adapter interface, the Gigabit Ethernet Adapter sets the Ethernet line interface operational mode that is built into the telephone to 1000Mbps full-duplex and deactivates the built-in secondary Ethernet interface. When a Gigabit Ethernet Adapter is present, any considerations or processing that apply to the "Ethernet line interface" apply only to the Ethernet line interface on that adapter. Likewise, any considerations or processing that apply to the "secondary Ethernet interface" apply only to the secondary Ethernet interface on the Gigabit Ethernet Adapter. With an internal or connected Gigabit Ethernet Adapter, system parameters PHY1STAT (the Ethernet line interface) and PHY2STAT (the secondary Ethernet interface) activate the respective Ethernet interface in the 1000Mbps operational mode when supported by the hardware. When not supported by the hardware, the respective Ethernet interface is set to auto-negotiate the speed and duplex.
Dialing Methods
The 9600 Series IP Deskphones have a variety of telephony-related applications that might obtain a telephone number during operation. For example, the Call Log/History applications save the number of an incoming caller, but do not consider that the user has to then prepend the saved number with one or more digits to dial an outside line, and possibly one or more digits to dial long distance. Two dialing methods are used, depending on which version of Avaya Communication Manager (CM) is running.

Log Digit (Smart Enbloc) Dialing

Avaya Communication Manager (CM) Releases 4.0 and up give the call server the potential to provide a superior level of enhanced "log digit analysis." This feature (also called smart enbloc dialing) allows the call server to supplement the number the telephone dials based on the call servers knowledge of the entire dialing plan. With the server supporting log digit dialing analysis, the telephone does not attempt to enhance a number as described for enhanced local dialing, and the call server assumes responsibility for analysis and action. Smart enbloc provides a more accurate dialing method because the telephone signals to the call server that log dialing digit analysis is requested for all calls originated by the Redial buffer(s), the local Call Log/History applications, and all web-based dialing.
Enhanced Local Dialing

For servers running a CM release earlier than 4.0, the 9600 Series IP Deskphones evaluate a stored telephone number (other than those in the Contacts list) based on parameters administered in the settings file. The telephone can then automatically prepend the correct digits, saving the user time and effort. This is Enhanced Local Dialing. The key to the success of this feature is accurate administration of several important values, described in Table 12 and summarized below. The parameters relevant to the Enhanced Dialing Feature are:
ENHDIALSTAT - Enhanced dialing status. If set to 1 (the default) the enhanced local dialing feature is turned on. If set to 0 enhanced local dialing is off. However, when in effect, Log Digit (Smart Enbloc) Dialing takes precedence, regardless of the ENHDIALSTAT setting. PHNCC - the international country code of the call servers location. This value is used in conjunction with the PHNIC value to help identify when a call to be dialed might be an international number. For example, set PHNCC to 1 when the call server is in the United States, to 44 for the United Kingdom, and so on. PHNDPLENGTH - the length of internal extension numbers. Used to help the telephone identify whether the number to be called is an outside number (which requires combining with PHNOL to get an outside line) or an internal line. As long as PHNDPLENGTH is less than the length of a national number (PHNLDLENGTH), the telephone can determine the difference between the two types of numbers. However, the telephone cannot determine the type of number when the extension is at least as long as the national telephone number PHNIC - the maximum number of digits, if any, dialed to access public network international trunks. This value is used in conjunction with the PHNCC value to help identify when a call to be dialed might be an international number. The country code is inserted if the number to be dialed includes a plus sign (+) followed by a country code
Dialing Methods
other than the one identified in PHNCC. However, the plus sign is almost never presented in calling or called party number data and usually only in Web-based click-to-dial links.
PHNLD - the long distance access code; the digit dialed to access public network long distance trunks. If the number to be dialed is longer than the extension number length and equal in length to PHNLD, the telephone presumes it is a national number, and should be preceded by the long distance access code. For example, in the United States a 10 digit number includes the area code and must be preceded by a "1." PHNLDLENGTH - the maximum length, in digits, of the national telephone number for the country in which the call server is located. If the number to be dialed is longer than the extension number and is not equal to PHNLD, the number is presumed to be a subset of the national number and the long distance access code is not used. PHNOL - the character(s) dialed to access public network local trunks on the call server. If the number to be dialed is not an extension number, the telephone presumes it is an outside number which needs to be preceded by the code to access an outside line, commonly a "9". Note: As with any parameters in Table 12, the default values are used unless you explicitly administer different values. Thus, if you do not administer a given parameter, or if you comment a given parameter out in the 46xxsettings file, the default value for that parameter is used.
Note:
!
Important:
Important: In all cases, the values you administer are the values applicable to the location of the call server. This means the site of the one Enterprise call server that handles multi-national locations. For example, if a telephone is located in London, England but its call server is in the United States, the PHNCC value needs to be set to 1" for the United States. If the call server is in London, PHNCC would be set to "44" even if the telephones it serves are in the United States.
Note:
Note: In all cases, the digits the telephones insert and dial are subject to standard Avaya server features and administration. This includes Class of Service (COS), Class of Restriction (COR), Automatic Route Selection (ARS), and so on. As indicated in Table 12, you can administer the system parameter ENHDIALSTAT to turn off the Enhanced Local Dialing feature.
Example: A corporate voice network has a 4-digit dialing plan. The corporate WML Web site lists a 4-digit telephone number as a link on the Human Resources page. A 9620 user selects that link. The 9620 deduces the telephone number is part of the corporate network because the length of the telephone number is the same as the corporate dialing plan. The telephone dials the number without further processing. Example: A user notes a Web site contains an international telephone number that needs to be called and initiates the call. The telephone determines the number to be called is from another
Issue 8 August 2010

country code. The telephone then prepends the rest of the telephone number with PHNOL to get an outside line and PHNIC to get an international trunk. The telephone then dials normally, with the call server routing the call appropriately.
Enhanced Local Dialing Requirements

The enhanced local dialing feature is invoked when all the following conditions are met:
A user invokes the Redial application, the Missed or Answered Call Log, or any Browser-based click-to-dial link to identify a telephone number to dial, and The Phone application determines a call appearance is available for an outgoing call, and The current value of ENHDIALSTAT is "1" (On), and The call server has not indicated it supports smart enbloc dialing (call type digit analysis available with Communication Manager Release 4.0 and later).
The Phone application takes the incoming character string, applies an algorithm, and determines the string of digits to be sent to automated call processing (ACP) for dialing. At this point the Phone application goes off-hook and sends the digits to ACP. Note: The Enhanced Local Dialing algorithm requires that telephone numbers be presented in a standard format. The standard format depends on how you administer the parameters indicated in Table 12. also described in Enhanced Local Dialing. The algorithm also assumes that international telephone numbers are identified as such in, for example, WML Web sites. This is indicated by preceding that type of number with a plus (+) sign, and a space or some non-digit character following the country code.
Note:
Administering Features on Softkeys

As of software Release 2.0, you can administer call server features on softkeys in the Phone application. The number of features you can place on a set of softkeys depends on the call state the telephone is presenting to the user. The chart below lists the call states for which you can administer softkeys, the relevant system parameter associated with a call state, the maximum number of features you can specify in that system parameter, and the softkey numbers that can take administered features. Call State Idle Dialing Active with ringback System Parameter IDLEFEATURES DIALFEATURES RINGBKFEATURES Maximum # of Features Allowed 6 5 3 Available Softkeys All softkeys 1, 3, & 4 3
Active with talk path
TALKFEATURES
Note:
Note: The system parameters are described in more detail in Table 12.
This capability works as follows:
You administer feature buttons for the telephone on the call server as you normally would, and the call server sends these button assignments to the telephone as it always has. In the 46xxsettings file, you administer any or all of the system parameters indicated in the chart above. Each parameter consists of a list of one or more feature numbers, up to the maximum indicated in that chart, with each feature number corresponding to a specific administrable feature. Table 16 lists the administrable features and their associated numbers. The telephone compares the list of features you administered on the call server with the list of features in the system parameters you administered. Assuming a given feature occurs both in call server administration and in a given system parameter, that feature is displayed on a Phone application softkey when the highlighted call appearance is in the associated call state. The telephone displays the feature buttons starting with Softkey 1 and continuing to the right in the order specified in the system parameter, subject to the considerations listed in this section. Example: Assume call server administration includes the Send All Calls and Directory features. If the system parameter IDLEFEATURES is not administered, the corresponding softkeys are labeled from left to right as follows when a highlighted call appearance is Idle: Redial Send All (blank) (blank)
However, when the system parameter IDLEFEATURES is administered to be "26,1000,35" the corresponding softkeys are labeled from left to right as follows when a highlighted call appearance is Idle: Directory Redial Send All (blank)
Softkeys available to be labeled with feature buttons as indicated under Available Softkeys in the page 118 chart are those that are not dedicated to a higher priority function. For example, in the "Active with a talk path" call state, the softkeys for Hold, Conference, and Transfer are dedicated to those functions and cannot be displaced by an administrable feature button, while the softkey normally labeled Drop (softkey #4) can be used for an administrable feature button. In addition to the administrable feature numbers listed in Table 16, two additional "features" can be specified on a softkey of your choice or can be completely replaced. In the case of the system parameters IDLEFEATURES or DIALFEATURES, if the list of feature numbers includes the value 1000, the corresponding softkey is reserved for the Redial feature local to the telephone. This means the corresponding softkey is labeled Redial if the telephone has at least one phone number stored for the Redial feature -- otherwise the softkey is unlabeled. In the case of the system parameter IDLEFEATURES, if the list of feature numbers includes the value 1100, the corresponding softkey is reserved for a "Backlight Off" icon. When pressed, this
Issue 8 August 2010
119
softkey turns the telephones backlight off, saving energy. The backlight comes back on automatically when an phone activity is detected, such as an incoming call or a button press by the user. Another consideration for IDLEFEATURES or DIALFEATURES is that if the system parameter PHNEMERGNUM is administered, the third softkey in the Idle or Dialing call state will always be labeled "Emerg." regardless of the contents of those system parameters. Features administered only for any SBM24 Button Module are ignored. The feature must be administered for the telephone itself and not the button module. Primary call appearances, bridged call appearances, and Team Buttons cannot be administered on softkeys. The feature button softkey labels displayed to the user are those downloaded from the call server. If the user has personalized the labels, the personalized labels are presented instead. If one of the designated parameters contains a Feature number more than once, and that number corresponds to at least one occurrence of a feature button downloaded from the call server, the designation of softkeys to features is assigned in the order the features are listed. For example, if two Abbreviated Dial (AD) buttons (Feature Number 65) are listed in the DIALFEATURES parameter, the first AD button in that list is associated with the first AD button downloaded from the call server. The second AD button in the DIALFEATURES parameter is associated with the second AD button downloaded from the call server (if any), and so on. Note: The system parameters allow you to specify more features than can be displayed on any one telephone. For example, IDLEFEATURES allows you to specify up to six features, although any one telephone can display at most four of them. The maximum size of each parameter allows you to specify one comprehensive list for that parameters related call state, but allows your user community to see different feature buttons depending on how you administer their telephones. Since the telephone only displays feature button labels for features administered on the call server, you can set the softkey feature system parameters to values that will correspond to features for some users, but not others. For example, if TALKFEATURES is administered to "325,50", the users having Conference Display administered would see that label on softkey #3 for the Active with talk path call state, but users with Attendant Release would instead see that label on softkey #3. Since softkey labels display in the order in which they are administered in the system parameter, a user with both Conference Display and Attendant Release would only see a Conference Display softkey.

Administering a Custom Screen Saver

Avaya provides a standard screen saver, however, you can administer a customized screen saver for 9600 Series IP Deskphones with bit-mapped displays. The screen saver displays when the idle timer reaches the value set in the system parameter SCREENSAVERON. The screen saver is removed whenever the idle timer is reset. If the value of SCREENSAVERON is "0", neither the standard Avaya screen saver, nor any customized screen saver you specify in the SCREENSAVER system parameter will be displayed. Screen savers display for approximately 5 seconds at a time at random locations on the screen, such that the entire image is always displayed. When the screen saver is removed, the previously displayed screen is restored unless another screen is appropriate due to a specified software operation such as making a call from the Phone screen. You can administer color images for gray-scale sets, or black and white images for color sets. The telephone will present the images as applicable for their individual displays. To determine what image to display, the telephone follows this procedure: 1. During boot-up the telephone checks for the file named in the system parameter SCREENSAVER. If found, that file is checked for valid jpeg format, and to verify that the screen saver image height and width do not exceed the applicable full screen pixel count of 160x160 for a 9610, 160x320 for a 9620, or 320x240 for a 9630, 9640 or 9650, or 480x640 for a 9670G IP Telephone. Note that the screen saver should be a smaller size than these pixel values specified so it can move randomly while displaying the entire image.
Issue 8 August 2010
127
2. If no valid file was downloaded, either because no file exists, or because the downloaded file exceeded one or more of the pixel count limits, or because the image is not a valid JPEG image, the Avaya-specific screen saver is used. The best way to use the SCREENSAVER parameter is to administer different file names in the 46xxsettings file, listed under different MODEL4 values (9620, 9630, etc.). In other words, using the MODEL4 IF statements, you can administrator a given telephone to point to a unique SCREENSAVER value that is appropriate for that telephone.
Backup/Restore
Note:
Note: This section does not apply to the 9610 IP Telephone. For 9610 backup/restore information, see Special Administration for the 9610 IP Telephone.
The 9600 Series IP Deskphones support the HTTP client to back up and restore the user-specific data indicated in Table 18. As of Software Release 1.5, HTTP over TLS (HTTPS) is also supported for backup/restore. For backup, the telephone creates a file with all the user-specific data if a backup file location is specified in system parameter BRURI. The file is sent to the server by an HTTP PUT message, with appropriate success or failure confirmation. For restore, the initiating process must supply only the backup file name. The file is requested from the server by an HTTP GET message. If successful, the file is returned to the initiating process, otherwise a failure message is returned. Backup and restore operations construct the URI used in the HTTP message from the value of the BRURI parameter and from the file name as follows:

If BRURI ends with / (a forward slash), the file name is appended. Otherwise, a forward slash is appended to the BRURI value, then the file name is appended to that. Note: BRURI can include a directory path and/or a port number as specified in IETF RFCs 2396 and 3986.
Note:
If TLS is used, the telephones call server registration password can be included in an Authorization request-header in each transmitted GET and PUT method. This is intended for use by the Avaya IP Telephone File Server Application (which can be downloaded from the Avaya support Web site) so that the telephone requesting the file transaction can be authenticated. If no digital certificates have been downloaded based on the system parameter TRUSTCERTS, the telephone establishes a TLS connection only to a backup/restore file server that has a Avaya-signed certificate (which is included by default with the Avaya IP Telephone File Server Application), and the credentials are always included. However, if at least one digital certificate
Backup/Restore
has been downloaded based on TRUSTCERTS, the credentials are included only if BRAUTH is set to "1". This is a security feature to allow control over whether the credentials are sent to servers with third-party certificates. If a non-Avaya certificate is used by the server on which the Avaya IP Telephone File Server Application is installed, set BRAUTH to "1" to enable authentication of the telephones. The default value of BRAUTH is "0". When the call server IP address and the telephones registration password are included as the credentials in an Authorization request-header, the call server IP address is included first in dotted-decimal format, followed by a colon (hex 3A), followed by the telephones registration password. HTTP/HTTPS authentication is supported for both backup and restore operations. The authentication credentials and realm are stored in re-programmable, non-volatile memory, which is not overwritten when new telephone software is downloaded. Both the authentication credentials and realm have a default value of null, set at manufacture or at any other time user-specific data is removed from the telephone. When TLS is used, the TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA cipher suite is used for authentication. If the digital certificate of the server is signed by the Avaya Product Root Certificate Authority certificate, the telephones call server registration password is included as the credentials in an Authorization request-header for each transmitted PUT (backup) and GET (for restore) method. New value(s) replace the currently stored authentication and realm values:

when HTTP authentication for backup or restore succeeds and if the userid, password, or realm used differs from those currently stored in the telephone.
If HTTP authentication fails, the user is prompted to enter new credentials. Note: Users can request a backup or restore using the Advanced Options Backup/ Restore screen, as detailed in the user guide for their specific telephone model. For specific error messages relating to Backup/Restore, see the Avaya one-X Deskphone Edition for 9600 IP Telephones Installation and Maintenance Guide.

Backup
When the system parameter BRURI is non-null, user changes are automatically backed up to the file ext_96xxdata.txt (where ext is the extension number of the deskphone) on the HTTP server to a user-specified directory. Backup formats are as follows: Table 17: Backup File Formats Item/Data Value Generic Contacts Format name=value ABKNAMEmmm=ENTRY_NAME ABKNUMBERmmm=ENTRY_NUMBER_1 ABKTYPEmmm=ENTRY_TYPE (where mmm is the one-, two-, or three-digit entry ID, with leading zeros for single and double-digit entry IDs) CLNAMEmmm=ENTRY_NAME CLNUMBERmmm=ENTRY_NUMBER CLTYPEmmm=ENTRY_TYPE CLDATEmmm=ENTRY_DATE CLTIMEmmm=ENTRY_TIME CLDURATIONmmm=ENTRY_DURATION CLBRIDGEDFLAGmmm=ENTRY_BRIDGEDFLAG CLMISSEDCNTRmmm=ENTRY_COUNTER CLBCALBLmmm=ENTRY_BCALBL To be valid, a Call Log entry must have at least a non-null Date and Type, and either Name or Number (or both) must be non-null.

Backup/Restore
A backup saves the options and non-password parameters shown in Table 18, as well as the information shown in Table 17.
Table 18: Options and Non-Password Parameters Saved During Backup Parameter Name HOMEFAVnn Setting Contact Favorites data; 9670G only. An entry is backed up for each Home screen favorite, where nn is the index number for that favorite. The backup file format for a Favorite is: HOMEFAVnn=Fav_Number<US>Fav_Caption< US>Contact_Name where Fav_Number is the phone number associated with the Favorite, Fav_Caption is the Favorite's caption text, Contact_Name is the Name for the associated Contact entry, and <US> is the Unit Separator (0x001F Unicode value). Upon Restore, a link must be established between a Favorite and a Contact entry by matching the Contact_Name against a Contact's Name and Fav_Number against one of that Contact's numbers. If no match is found, then the Favorite cannot be restored and is discarded.

Restore
When automatic or user-requested retrieval of backup data is initiated, user data and option settings are set to values contained in the backup file. This occurs only if the OPSTAT parameter setting allows the user to change those values. Therefore, any restrictions set using OPSTAT are recognized and honored. The backup file value is not retrieved, and the current setting remains valid:

when a value in the backup file has changed and that value corresponds to an application that OPSTAT indicates should not be changed.
This prevents a user from bypassing the administration of OPSTAT and changing options settings in the backup file. Note: If you administered the APPSTAT parameter to suppress changes to one or more applications, the telephone backs up and restores data as usual, but ignores data for suppressed applications. This prevents a user from bypassing your APPSTAT restrictions by editing the backup file. For information about APPSTAT, see The Application Status Flag (APPSTAT) on page 144.
Note:
9610 Backup/Restore
During backup file restoration, user activity is prohibited until a Retrieval successful or Retrieval Failed message displays. When a restore attempt fails, if a retrieved file has no valid data, or if a retrieved file cannot be successfully stored, a Retrieval Failed message displays at the telephone until the user takes another action. Data retrieval considerations are as follows:
When you create a backup file rather than edit an existing one, be sure to create the file with UTF-16 LE (little endian) characters, with Byte Order Mark (BOM) for LE of 0xFFFE. Backup saves data values using the generic format name=value. For specific formats, see Backup. All identifiers, for example, names, are interpreted in a case-insensitive manner, but the case of parameter values, Contact names, and numbers is preserved. Spaces preceding, within, or following a name are treated as part of the name. <CR> and <LF> (UTF-16 characters 0x000D and 0x000A, respectively) are interpreted as line termination characters. Blank lines are ignored. When an identifier is not recognized or is invalid, the entire line is ignored. Likewise, if an identifier is valid but the data itself is invalid or incomplete, the line is ignored. When an identifier is valid with valid and complete data, but the data is not applicable to the current state of the telephone, the data is retained for possible use later, and is considered data to be backed up at the appropriate time. For example, if button labels for an SBM24 button module unit are present, but no such module is attached to the telephone, the button labels are retained. When more than one line contains a value for an option, parameter, or Contacts entry, the last value read is retrieved, to allow new values to overwrite previous values as lines are read from the backup file. In all other cases, the line order in the backup file has no bearing on retrieval. The existence of invalid data does not constitute a failed retrieval. The success of the retrieval process requires the telephone to obtain the backup file and successfully restore valid data.
9610 Backup/Restore
The 9610 uses its backup/restore functionality differently than other 9600 Series IP Telephones. There is no user-created data nor are there options that need to be stored in a 9610 backup file. The 9610 uses its backup file as the source for administration of the button labels and associated telephone numbers in the Contacts application, the Main Menu list, and associated data, etc.
Issue 8 August 2010
133
The administrator is expected to build the backup file in accordance with the requirements in this section, so that when the 9610 boots up and registers, it will obtain the appropriate data for user presentation. Differences with the backup/restore procedures used on the other 9600 Series IP Telephones include:
The 9610 never backs up data, it only retrieves data. Since the user has no mechanism to change any data, there is no need to back up changes. For consistent terminology with other 9600 Series IP Telephones, we use the term backup file here for the 9610 file. Because the user can never change data, the OPSTAT value is ignored for the purposes of populating the display from the 9610 backup file. When the 9610 attempts to retrieve the backup file, the telephone first attempts to retrieve a file labeled ext_9610data.txt. If the 9610 does not retrieve this file successfully, unlike the other 96xx sets, the 9610 attempts to retrieve a file labeled 9610data.txt. This file does not have an extension designation. This retrieval process has the advantage of allowing all 9610s that are not associated with a specific extensions backup file to share a common backup file. You can have, for example, three unique 9610 backup files - one for a 9610 in the Marketing conference room, one for a 9610 in the Accounting conference room, and one for five 9610 IP Telephones in public areas of the company.
9610 Retrieval Procedures

When the telephone initiates an automatic retrieval, the telephone first attempts to retrieve a file with filename ext_9610data.txt, where ext is the extension number of the telephone. While in progress, the Top Line displays Retrieval 1. If the file is retrieved successfully, the Top Line displays File obtained while the telephone validates the data, and stores valid data in memory. All previous corresponding data is replaced, unless the restore fails, as described below. When data storage is completed successfully, the Top Line displays Restore OK for 30 seconds, or until the user selects another Application Line or application, whichever comes first. If this first retrieval attempt fails for any reason, or if the successfully retrieved file had no valid data, the 9610 then attempts to retrieve a file with the filename 9610data.txt. While this retrieval is in progress, the Top Line displays Retrieval 2. If the file is retrieved successfully the remaining steps are identical to those for the ext_9610data.txt file. If: - this second retrieval attempt fails for any reason, or - the file is successfully retrieved but has no valid data, or - either successfully-retrieved file was not successfully stored, then the Top Line displays Restore failed for 30 seconds, or until the user selects another Application Line or application, whichever comes first. Once the data storage starts and until the Restore OK or Restore failed message displays, the user cannot perform any action to display another screen, for example, the Avaya Menu button is temporarily locked out and any press of it is ignored. Once the appropriate result message is displayed, the corresponding 9610 user interface is presented.
9610 Backup/Restore
General 9610 Restore Processing

Characters are assumed to be coded in UTF-16 LE (little-endian, with Byte Order Mark (BOM) for LE (0xFFFE)), with each item on a separate line terminated by <CR><LF> (000D 000A in UTF-16) characters.
!
Important:
Important: If the file is not in this format, the telephone displays the message "Restore failed.".
The generic format for data values is: name=value. The format for retrieving a Main Menu entry is: MMLBLxx =entry label MMTYPExx =entry type MMDATAxx =entry data For more information, see Main Menu (MM) Administration on page 170. The format for retrieving a Contacts entry is: CONLABELxxx = entry label CONDATAxxx = entry data For more information, see Contacts Application Administration on page 171. The other parameters that have meaning in a 9610 backup file are: IDLEAPP- as described in The 9610 Idle Application, WMLIDLETIME, SCREENSAVERON, IDLEAPP, and WMLSMALL on page 171. LISTAPP - when LISTAPP is null (the default), the assumption is the administrator has not created an external equivalent to the local Contacts application. The local Contacts application is used unless it too is empty. When the local Contacts application is empty, selecting List is the same as pressing the Start button. When LISTAPP is non-null, the assumption is the administrator has populated it with a URI for a WML-based application to be displayed when List is selected. When retrieving data, the following applies:
If the Byte Order Mark (BOM) is not 0xFFFE, the entire file is rejected and the retrieval fails. All identifiers, for example, names, are interpreted in a case-insensitive manner. The case of parameter values and Contacts names and numbers are preserved. Spaces preceding, within, or following a name or value are treated as part of that entity. <CR> and <LF> are interpreted as line termination characters. Blank lines are ignored. If an identifier is not recognized or is invalid, the entire line is ignored.
Issue 8 August 2010
135
If an identifier is valid but the data itself is invalid or incomplete, the line is ignored. The determination of what constitutes a valid value for each data element is specified in General 9610 Restore Processing and Backup File Format. If more than one line contains a value for a parameter or Contacts entry, the last value read is used (hence, new values overwrite previous values as lines are read from the file). In all other cases, the order of the lines in the file does not matter.
The success of the retrieval process requires the telephone to obtain the backup file, and to successfully store valid data. The existence of invalid data does not constitute a failed retrieval. Note: Chapter 9: Administering Specific 9600 Series IP Deskphones describes 9610-specific administration.

Chapter 8: Administering Applications and Options
Customizing 9600 Series IP Telephone Applications and Options

The 9600 Series IP Deskphones have some unique and powerful capabilities that take advantage of their display and access to LAN facilities. If your LAN has a WML Web site, the telephone needs key information about the servers providing those facilities. You need to provide the information called for in relevant sections of Table 19 in a customized script file. For more information, see 9600 Series IP Telephone Scripts and Application Files on page 76.
! CAUTION:
CAUTION:
For the telephones to work properly, you must have a 46xxsettings.txt file in the same directory as the application file. If you do not edit the 46xxsettings.txt file, those telephones use default settings only. The 46xxsettings file is available as a standalone download. If you already have such a file because you downloaded it for a previous 9600 Series or 4600 Series IP Telephone release, installing the standalone file overwrites the original file. Note: To facilitate administration, the 9600 Series and 4600 Series IP Telephones use the same 46xxsettings.txt file.
Note:
In Table 19, parameters shown with a Mandatory status must be accurate and non-null for the application to work. You can change parameters with an Optional status to suit your environment. If you do not change parameters, the defaults are used.

Note:
The Application Status Flag (APPSTAT)

The 9600 Series IP Deskphones offer the user numerous applications like Contacts, Call Log/ History, Redial, and so on. Each of these applications allows the user to add, delete, or in some cases, edit entries. You, as the administrator, might not want the user to have that level of functionality. For example, a hotel lobby telephone probably should not allow a user to delete the concierges contact number. Further, for privacy reasons, that same telephone should not allow a Call Log display. You can use the Application Status Flag, APPSTAT, to administer specific application functionality permission levels for one or more telephones. APPSTAT consists of one number, specifying a certain level of allowed functionality. A Zero (0) value is the most limiting setting. Values 2 and 3 allow increasing levels of functionality, and 1 allows the user complete application functionality.
Table 20: Application Status Flags and Their Meaning APPSTAT Value 0 1 2 3 Meaning Redial and Call Logs/History are suppressed. Contact changes are not allowed. All administered applications are displayed, with full functionality. This is the default value. Call Log (History) is suppressed. Contact changes are not allowed. Only one-number Redial is allowed. Contact changes are not allowed. For touchscreen deskphones, this also means that users cannot assign or remove contact Favorites via the Home screen.
In Table 20, suppressed applications are not displayed to the user. Softkey labels, application tabs, and so on are not labeled or displayed. Options associated with suppressed applications can continue to display unless you override them by appropriate OPSTAT parameter administration. Displayed options have no effect while the application is suppressed. In Table 20, Contact changes are not allowed means the Contact application displays and the user can make calls as normal. Any controls that allow the user to change any aspect of the Contact application do not display. This restriction includes the ability to add, delete, or edit any Contact name or number. In Table 20, Only one-number Redial is allowed means the user Option that allows a choice between displaying last numbers dialed is suppressed. The Redial buffer stores only one number. The Redial application does not display since the user can redial only one number. This restriction allows privacy once a given user has left the telephone. You can:

set APPSTAT to 1, for example, in a staging area, administer a given telephone with Contact entries of your choice, like the Concierge telephone number button in the earlier example, then move the telephone to where it will be used, where you have administered APPSTAT to be, for example, 0 (zero).
When the relocated telephone resets, it retains its Contact entries, like Concierge, but does not allow the user to create new entries. When you set APPSTAT to any valid value other than 1, the telephone does not accept any Contact button label changes that might have been made directly on a backup file. Only the existing labels of the telephone are used. This restriction prevents circumvention of the APPSTAT restrictions. The WML applications are also suppressed by default.

Special Administration for the 9610

Administration of the 9610 IP Telephone is handled using the restore file rather than the settings file which is used by all other 9600 Series IP Telephones. For information, see 9610 Backup/ Restore on page 133.
Special Administration for Touchscreen Deskphones

The 9621G, 9641G, and 9670G are touch-based phones, and as such, uses a touch-based Home Screen in place of the Avaya Menu that other 9600 Series IP Deskphones use. The Home Screen provides access to telephone options and settings, special Avaya applications like a World Clock, Calculator and Weather, Contact Favorites, and any WML applications you may administer. The Home screen can display up to four WML applications, but if you have configured more than four applications, More displays to provide access to all WML applications. See WML Application Display on the Home Screen for information about display characteristics and icons. If there are no WML applications, there may be a single WML Browser item shown, providing the system parameter WMLHOME is set with a value. Most Avaya Menu elements like those for WML applications do apply, and any 9670G or other touchscreen deskphone exceptions are noted where applicable in the appropriate sections under Avaya "A" Menu Administration.
Avaya "A" Menu Administration

Release 1.2 provided a new user interface (UI) that put multiple WML applications in the first level of the A (Avaya) Menu. The A (Avaya) Menu is a list of sub-applications the user can select from to invoke the corresponding functionality. A new file called AvayaMenuAdmin.txt is available with Release 1.2 and greater downloads on which you can specify the menu label, URI, and list order of WML applications on the A Menu. Software Release 2.0 added a Home screen that replaces the A Menu for touchscreen deskphones only. The addition of touchscreen models requires that the AvayaMenuAdmin.txt file be used to specify the WML applications you want displayed on the Home screen. These applications are displayed in order from left to right, going to a second page if necessary. Note: This section applies to all 9600 Series IP Deskphones except the 9610. For information on 9610 IP Telephone menu administration, see Special Administration for the 9610 IP Telephone in Chapter 9.
Note:
Note:
Note: Touchscreen deskphones have a unique Home Screen that replaces the Avaya Menu for access to menu options and settings, log out, Bluetooth setup, and touch screen cleaning. The Home screen also displays WML applications, Favorite contact speed dial buttons, Avaya applications (World Clock and Weather), and a calculator; for more information see Special Administration for Touchscreen Deskphones.
!
Important:
Important: You must set the system parameter AMADMIN in the 46xxsettings file for Avaya "A" Menu administration with WML applications to work. The AvayaMenuAdmin.txt file must be a Unicode file to be properly processed by the phones. You can create a Unicode version of this file using Notepad or most text editors (select "Encoding" and "Unicode").
If WML applications are installed and the system parameter AMADMIN is set in the settings file:
the WML applications appear in the first-level A Menu as specified in the AvayaMenuAdmin file, as shown in Figure 2. the first level A Menu on all 9600 Series IP Deskphones except touchscreen deskphones includes a single entry (Phone Settings) that leads to a screen containing choices for Options & Settings and Network Information. For touchscreen phones, the Home screen shows a Settings option that leads to an Options & Settings menu. the Phone Settings screen is essentially the current Options and Settings menu, with the addition of Network Information, as shown in Figure 3. T
If WML applications are installed and the system parameter WMLHOME is set in the settings file, the Avaya A Menu is identical to the pre-Release 1.2 A Menu, as shown in Figure 4. If WML applications are not installed, the A Menu is essentially the same as the current Options & Settings menu, with the addition of Network Information, Log Off, and About Avaya one-X. Figure 5 provides an illustration. There are alternatives for how the sub-applications are presented, depending on whether you have administered WML applications or not, as follows:
Set the system parameter AMADMIN to the URL of the AvayaMenuAdmin.txt in the 46xxsettings file when you have multiple WML applications you want to display on the Avaya A Menu. For more information, see Main Avaya Menu with WML Applications Administered and Avaya Menu Administration With WML Applications in this chapter. Set the system parameter WMLHOME in the settings file for all but the 9610 when you want Browser to show instead of individual applications. For more information, see Main Avaya Menu with Browser (Only) Administered. Take no action to administer WML applications. For more information, see Main Menu No WML Applications Administered.
Issue 8 August 2010
147
The Browser application is listed if and only if it is properly administered as specified in Avaya one-X Deskphone Edition for 9600 IP Telephones Application Programmer Interface (API) Guide (Document Number 16-600888). Administration also includes a non-null value for WMLHOME.
Administering Phone Settings and Options and Settings (OPSTAT and OPSTAT2)
The Options & Settings application is listed if and only if the OPSTAT value is not 0xy, where x and y can be any value of 0 or 1, if OPSTAT is in 3-bit form, or if and only if the value of OPSTAT is 1, if OPSTAT is in the one-digit form. The Network Information application is listed if and only if the OPSTAT value is not x0y, where x and y can be any value of 0 or 1 if OPSTAT is in 3-bit form, or in any case, if OPSTAT is in the one-digit form. The Logout function is listed if and only if the OPSTAT value is not xy0, where x and y can be any value of 0 or 1 if OPSTAT is in 3-bit form, or if, and only if, the OPSTAT value is 1, if OPSTAT is in the one-digit form. In general, if OPSTAT is set to forbid access to Options & Settings, changes to the users backup file settings are ignored. This prevents someone from using the backup file as a "back door" for making changes to the settings. However, some customers centralize the customized relabeling of administered features, and want to be able to upload changes to these labels despite forbidding end users to change settings. The parameter OPSTAT2 can override the value of OPSTAT for this specific case - setting OPSTAT2 to "1" allows the telephone to accept changes to the customized labels stored in the backup file regardless of the OPSTAT value. Note: Software Release 3.0 added the system parameter OPSTAT2. Regardless of the preceding text on OPSTAT settings, if the value of OPSTAT2 has the value "1" then any customized labels in the user's backup file are uploaded and used as if the value of OPSTAT permitted this action. However, in order to restore the personalized/customized labels from the backup file to the telephone, the user needs to restart the phone by logging out and then logging back in again.
Note:
Main Avaya Menu with WML Applications Administered

Administering AMADMIN provides direct links to one or more WML applications. As Figure 2 shows, the first level Avaya Menu includes entries for three (sample) WML applications, a Phone Settings menu choice for telephone options and settings, and the telephone log out.
Figure 2: Avaya Menu with WML Applications Installed as the first three Menu options
Given that at least one WML application is administered, the administrator can choose to specify the order in which not only the WML applications are presented, but also the order in which the built-in applications are presented. Any built-in applications that are not specifically administered in the WML Administration file are automatically appended to the end of the administered list, in the following order:

Phone Settings Log Out About Avaya one-X
Selecting (highlighting) an application and pressing Select or OK launches the application. When the Phone Settings application is listed, the Choice Indicator is also displayed on the Title Line. Pressing the Left or Right Navigation buttons displays the Phone Settings Screen. Selecting Phone Settings brings up the Phone Settings menu, shown in Figure 3.

Main Avaya Menu with Browser (Only) Administered

Setting the system parameter WMLHOME in the settings file provides a way to link to the Browser Home page by specifying a URL. Administering WMLHOME produces the Avaya A Menu shown in Figure 4. Figure 4: Avaya Menu with Browser Administered using WMLHOME

Avaya Menu Administration With WML Applications

Administer the AMADMIN parameter in the 46xxsettings file to point to a URL where the AvayaMenuAdmin.txt file resides.
!
Important:
Important: The AvayaMenuAdmin.txt file must be a Unicode file to be properly processed by the phones. You can create a Unicode version of this file using Notepad or most text editors (select "Encoding" and "Unicode").
Note:
Note: Use the AvayaMenuAdmin.txt file to specify the WML applications to appear on touchscreen models Home screen.
Then specify objects for the Avaya Menu through the Avaya Menu Administration file, AvayaMenuAdmin.txt. Each administered object, up to the maximum of 12, must have valid, non-null parameter data:
AMTYPExx - One of six choices. 01=URI, 02=the local Phone Settings sub-application, 03=local Log Off sub-application, 04= the About Avaya one-X screen, 05=Guest Login application, 06=My Pictures application. Touchscreen telephones ignore all AMTYPE values except "1".
If the AMTYPE for an associated administered object is 01, an additional three parameters must have valid, non-null data for the object to be properly administered:
AMLBLxx - The label displayed to the user for this object, up to 16 UTF-16 characters, shown left-justified unless spaces precede the label value to center the label. AMDATAxx - A URI of up to 255 ASCII characters, without spaces. AMICONxx - For touchscreen models only, any number, N, from 1 to 25. The touchscreen deskphone will use the Nth icon presented in Table 21: Home Screen WML Application Icons/Labels on the Home screen in association with the administered WML application. The labels shown in Table 21 are merely suggestions; the touchscreen deskphone uses the label you specify in the AMLBLxx parameter.
The xx in these three parameters is a two-digit integer from 01 to 12 inclusive, including a leading zero if applicable. If AMTYPExx is 01, xx must be the same for each of the three parameters for an Avaya Menu entry to be displayed and associated with the administered data. If AMTYPExx is 02, 03 or 04, any AMLBLxx or AMDATAxx data is ignored if provided. If a given administered object has null or invalid data in any of the required associated parameters, that object is completely ignored. To list an AMTYPE01 entry on the Avaya Menu, all three associated parameters must be non-null with valid data. For example, an AMTYPE of 00 is considered invalid. Do not administer more than nine URIs. By implication, there is no way to specify a telephone number as a TYPE (unlike the 9610).
In case of duplicate data in the settings file, the last entry is retained. For example, if two consecutive lines in the Avaya Menu Administration file are: AMLBL01=ABCD AMLBL01=WXYZ then the user sees WXYZ as the label for the first WML application. This example assumes the rest of the administration is correct. If no AvayaMenuAdmin.txt file is available, or if the file does not contain at least one valid type 1 (URI) object, the Release 1.0/1.1 Avaya Menu shown in Figure 5 is presented instead. Note: For touchscreen deskphones only, non-WML entries in the AvayaMenuAdmin.txt file are ignored.

Guest User Administration

A guest user is anyone who logs into a 9600 Series IP Telephone that is not his or her primary phone at the users home location. This could mean that the guest user can log into a telephone that is across the country from the home location or one in the office adjacent to the home office. You administer permission for guest login by setting the system parameter GUESTLOGINSTAT to 1 (permitted), which in turn displays the Guest Login option on the Avaya A Menu. Other related parameters you can administer are GUESTDURATION (which can be overridden by a different, user-entered duration during login) and GUESTWARNING. All parameters are described in Table 19 and Table 12.
Timer Operation
When the idle timer in the telephone expires you can administer the telephone to turn the backlight to its lowest power level, put up a screen saver, and/or show a Web page while the telephone is idle. However, Avaya does not recommend setting all of these values on the same telephone. Avaya does recommend, for instance, that you set a lobby phone to go to a Web page when it is idle and to set a desk phone to go to the screen saver and/or set the backlight to low power mode when idle. The related system parameters and their default values, further described in Table 12: 9600 Series IP Telephone Customizable System Parameters, are: WMLIDLETIME = 10 minutes BAKLIGHTOFF = 120 minutes SCREENSAVERON = 240 minutes WMLIDLEURI = null WMLIDLEURI is expected to be specified only for phones in public areas through the use of a GROUP parameter.

After (BAKLIGHTOFF SCREENSAVERON) additional minutes, the backlight is set to low power mode. Every WMLIDLETIME minutes, a GET is sent for WMLIDLEURI, and the browser is displayed. The Web page may contain its own timer to cycle through additional Web pages. The backlight is set to low power mode after the specified time and the screen saver is displayed based on the SCREENSAVERON value.

Note:
Note: The 9610 IP Telephone uses the IDLEAPP value in the 9610data.txt file instead of WMLIDLEURI in the settings file. For more information, see Special Administration for the 9610 on page 146 and 9610 Backup/Restore on page 133. Note: The Backlight Off icon allows the end users to bypass the timers in Table 22 and set the the backlight to its lowest level automatically. You can administer the Backlight Off icon on a 9600 Series IP Telephone softkey as described in Administering Features on Softkeys. The backlight for any adjunct button module will follow the behavior of the backlight of the telephone to which the button module is attached.
Note:

A USB device can be used to carry information to support the following usage profiles:
Issue 8 August 2010
161
Mobility/Visiting User: The USB memory stick carries login credentials, contacts and/or digital pictures. Inserting a USB device will cause the phone to register with a login profile, allowing any 9600 Series IP Telephone to become a personalized extension. Deskphone Personalization: A USB memory stick supports import/export of contacts to/ from a 9600 Series IP Telephone and/or display of digital pictures.
Users and administrators can use the Avaya one-X Deskphone USB Companion, a PC-based USB management tool that converts Microsoft Office Outlook contacts to a format usable by 9600 Series IP Deskphones, and provides an easy way to format other files, like digital pictures that will be used as screensavers. This pc-based tool is available on the Avaya support Web site.
USB File/Device Support

Only FAT or FAT32 file systems are currently supported. The following are not currently supported:

USB drives with NTFS file systems are not supported. USB devices with multiple partitions or multiple LUNS are not supported. U3 USB devices are not supported.
Contacts File Format for USB Devices

As of software Release 2.0, Contacts lists can be imported or exported to or from all 9600 Series IP Telephones (except the 9608 and 9610) via a USB device like a Flash drive or memory stick. The telephone user guide provides detailed information on this capability. Contact files merged or written to the phone's Contacts list must be in a specific format. The user guides advise end users of two ways to ensure that a Contact list is formatted properly. The rest of this section documents the 9xxxContacts.txt file requirements. Use this information as a guide to export contacts from Outlook and other similar software applications without using the Avaya one-X Deskphone USB Companion tool. The contacts file must be a little-endian Unicode text file. That is, each character in the file is a 16-bit integer value, stored least significant byte first. The first two bytes of the file are a Byte Order Mark which must be FF followed by FE (hexadecimal). The file name must be 9xxxContacts.txt (without the quotes). Each contact entry consists of a single line, terminated by <CR><LF> (Carriage Return, 000D hex, and Line Feed, 000A hex). An entry contains 1 name, 1 to 3 phone numbers, and 0 to 3 types. Separate the fields within each contact entry with one or more tabs.
The detailed contact entry format is: <name><tab><number1><tab><type1><tab><number2><tab><type2><tab><num ber3><tab> <type3><CR><LF> Name and Number fields - can start and end with a double quote character ["]). The name and number1 are required, and each must be at least one character (not counting quotes). Limit names and phone numbers to 20 characters for the name, 30 for the numbers. Values are truncated if they exceed these maximum sizes. Types - must be 3 characters, starting and ending with a slash / character, with a digit character 0 to 3 in between; e.g. /1/. Leading and/or trailing spaces are ignored for type fields. The Types are 0 for General, 1 for Work, 2 for Mobile, and 3 for Home. Types are optional and missing types default to 0 (General). Lines may be at most 255 Unicode characters long, including the <CR><LF>. Blank lines, including lines consisting only of spaces and/or tabs, are ignored. A field other than the first that consists of only spaces is ignored. Because types can be omitted, if the potential type field is more than 3 characters or does not start and end with a slash, it is considered the next number field, if any (e.g. /1 and /02/ would be considered numbers). Entries are invalid if:

the name is null (a non-blank line starts with tab or with followed by tab). there is no number1 field. any number field is null (for example, just for number2). a potential type field contains an invalid digit (not 0, 1, 2, or 3) or consists of / or //. more than three numbers are provided. the entry contains more types than numbers.
The Windows XP Notepad program allows Unicode text files to be created and edited. Use the Save As dialog to set the file Encoding to Unicode.
USB Login Setup

As of software Release 3.0, users can be allowed to log in to their call servers via a USB Login profile. As the administrator, you enable this feature by allowing the parameter USBLOGINSTAT in the settings file to remain at the default value of "1" or you can disable this feature by changing the value to "0". The advantage of having USB login is that users can go anywhere in the world having sufficient network data connectivity, plug the USB device into a 9600 Series IP Telephone running software Release 3.0 or later and log into their home call server using their own extension and get all their home administered features. You can use Avaya one-X Deskphone USB Companion, the Avaya PC-based USB management tool, to create the USB login profile and specify whether the login password
Issue 8 August 2010

should be encrypted or stored in the clear. For more information on this tool, see the Avaya support Web site, http://www.avaya.com/support. Note: When users log in via the USB Login feature, the telephone does not attempt to access the backup file as normal, so normal user-specified data such as Options, or Call Log entries are not available. The reason is that if the user is in a different environment from the usual office the telephone would attempt to access the local backup file server instead of the remote (home) file server and could obtain a different backup file than that of the user. Additionally, the only contacts a user has access to when registered via USB Login are the contacts available on the USB device (properly formatted as a 9xxxContacts.txt file using the Avaya USB tool or another method).
Note:
USB Pictures
As of Software Release 3.0, one or more pictures from a USB flash drive device can be used as screen savers. The USB device may contain any number of .jpg or .jpeg files that can be used in place of a default or custom screen saver(s). If multiple files are provided, the telephone will present each picture in order, based on the order the pictures were saved, changing to the next image after the number of seconds specified by the timer parameter, which has a default of 5 seconds. These pictures also be viewed directly by using the "My Pictures" option on the Avaya "A" Menu or on the Home screen. Users and administrators can use the Avaya one-X Deskphone USB Companion to format digital pictures that will be used as screensavers. This pc-based tool is available on the Avaya support Web site. If you want to set up digital picture files manually without using the Avaya one-X Deskphone USB Companion, follow these instructions: 1. Create a "\Pictures" directory on the USB device. 2. Add one or more images with an extension of *.jpeg or *.jpg, and with a valid JPEG format to the pictures directory. The images should not exceed the pixel sizes below for the respective telephone model. Color phones such as the 9620C, 9621G, 9640, and 9650C display a better image quality than those 9600 Series IP Deskphones that do not have color displays: Deskphones Supporting USB 9620/9620C/ 9620L 9611G/9630/ 9630G/9640G/ 9650/9650C Image Size in Pixels (HxW) 320x160 320x240
Deskphones Supporting USB 9641G 9670G
Image Size in Pixels (HxW) 480x272 640x480
Note:
Note: Images that are too large to be displayed on the phone will not be displayed; in this case, the default screensaver image will be shown instead. The 9608 and 9610 IP Deskphones do not have a USB interface and therefore cannot display digital images as screensavers. Note: The screensaver will start automatically when the phone is idle for the time specified in the SCREENSAVERON parameter (default is 240 minutes). In practice, it is useful to reduce this time in order to use the USB Pictures feature. To disable USB picture functionality, set the SCREENSAVERON parameter to "0" in the settings file.

Chapter 9: Administering Specific 9600 Series IP Deskphones
Introduction
Some 9600 IP Telephone models may require that you administer additional features or have special administrative requirements. For example, the 9610 IP Telephone is a one-line telephone designed as a courtesy, or walk-up, telephone. The 9610 is not full-featured like other 9600 IP Series Telephones, with just a Contacts application, but additional features like WML applications and a Directory can be administered for a 9610. This chapter provides additional or alternate administration details for specific telephone models.
Special Administration for the 9610 IP Telephone

General Functionality
Because the 9610 is a single line phone, the user cannot transfer or conference calls, or put an active call on hold. The 9610 does not have a phone screen like other 9600 Series IP Deskphones. There are two application buttons - Start and Contacts. There are no A or Call Log buttons, Speaker or Mute buttons. The Web browser application is supported. The Main Menu (MM) on the Start screen is an administrable list of objects from which a user can select a new application that is either local to the telephone or on an external server, or an outgoing call. Underlying Main Menu content administration directs the telephone to take action applicable to the given selection. The default Main Menu consists of Contacts and Directory, assuming they have been appropriately administered. The Main Menu displays when the telephone first powers up or resets. The Contacts Application provides functionality similar to the other models but only to launch a call to a contact. Contacts cannot be edited, deleted or added. The Idle Application displays when both a Web Idle Timer and the Idle application have been administered and the timer expires. For example, if the Idle application has been set to Contacts, when the Web Idle Timer expires the 9610 display changes to the Contacts application. The Idle application is either one of the existing local applications (Menu or Directory) or a URL, depending on the contents of IDLEAPP.

Administering Specific 9600 Series IP Deskphones
Key 9610 Administration Concepts

Each 9610 seeks a backup/restore file which contains essential administration data in its user interface that enables different capabilities to walk-up users. The backup file concept is common to all phones, but in the case of the 9610, must be created by an administrator to specify the required behavior of the telephone to walk-up users. Backup and retrieval for the 9610 is covered in more detail in 9610 Backup/Restore on page 133. A group of 9610 phones can share a common backup file, or individual 9610 IP Telephones can have individual customized backup files. Backup files must be created in an editor. There is no capability to store a current configuration from the phone to a backup file as there is for other 9600 Series models. Within the backup file format, the configuration is split into three portions corresponding to the applications mentioned in General Functionality:

Main Menu administration as described on page 170. Contacts administration as described on page 171. Idle administration as described on page 171.
Create a generic backup/restore file named "9610data.txt" that can be used as a default to provide basic functionality and serve as a template for any customized 9610 extensions. Create a backup/restore file named "Ext#_9610data.txt" for the specific extension you want to customize. See the Avaya support site http://support.avaya.com to download a 9610 backup file example. A sample file also appears on Sample 9610data.txt File on page 174. Note: Like other telephone models, the 9610 looks for a 46xxsettings file at startup. In the 46xxsettings file, the system parameter BRURI must be set to the URI where the 9610data.txt file is located. This consists of the HTTP server IP Address and (optional) directory.
Note:
If the telephone cannot find the 9610data.txt file or if that file does not exist, the screen displays the default Main Menu (Contacts and Directory).
Backup File Format

Use a text editor to create the 9610 backup file. Characters are assumed to be coded in UTF-16 LE (little-endian), with Byte Order Mark (BOM) for LE (0xFFFE)), with each item on a separate line terminated by <CR><LF> (000D 000A in UTF-16) characters. The generic format for data values is: name=value. The format for a Main Menu entry is: MMLBLxx=entry label MMTYPExx=entry type MMDATAxx=entry data The format for a Contacts entry is: CONLABELxxx=entry label CONDATAxxx=entry data Other parameters that have meaning in a 9610 backup file are: IDLEAPP LISTAPP When retrieving data, the following applies:
If the BOM is not 0xFFFE, the entire file is rejected and the retrieval is considered to have failed. All identifiers (for example, names) are interpreted in a case-insensitive manner. The case of parameter values and Contacts names and numbers is preserved. Spaces preceding, within, or following a name or value are treated as part of that entity. <CR> and <LF> are interpreted as line termination characters. Blank lines are ignored. If an identifier is not recognized or is invalid, the entire line is ignored. If an identifier is valid but the data itself is invalid or incomplete, the line is ignored. The determination of what constitutes a valid value for each data element is specified in the individual requirements in this document. If more than one line contains a value for a parameter or Contacts entry, the last value read is used. Hence, new values overwrite previous values as lines are read from the file. In all other cases, the order of the lines in the file does not matter.
The success of the retrieval process requires the telephone to obtain the backup file and to successfully store valid data. The existence of invalid data does not constitute a failed retrieval.
Issue 8 August 2010
169
Main Menu (MM) Administration

Use the 46xxsettings file to set the system parameter BRURI to point to the URI where the 9610 backup/restore file (9610data.txt) resides. Then specify objects for the Main Menu via the 9610data.txt backup file. Note: The 9610 will not display a Main Menu unless you set BRURI to point to the 9610data.txt file and specify Main Menu objects.
Note:
Each administered object, up to the maximum of 10, must have valid, non-null data in each of the three parameters as indicated: MMLBLxx - the label displayed to the user for this object, up to 16 characters. MMTYPExx - one of four choices: 01=URI, 02=telephone number, 03=local Contacts application, 04=local Directory application. MMDATAxx - the data used depends on the value of MMTYPExx: - a URI, if MMTYPE is 01, - a dialable string if MMTYPE is 02, - the English word Contacts if MMTYPE is 03, and - the English word Directory if MMTYPE is 04. Note: If administered as a URI, MMDATAxx is up to 255 ASCII characters in length.
Note:
In these parameters, xx is a two-digit integer from 01 to 10 inclusive, including a leading zero if applicable. If MMTYPE is 01 or 02, xx must be the same for each of the three parameters for a Main Menu entry to be displayed and associated with the administered data. If MMTYPE is 03 or 04, xx must be the same as a corresponding MMLBL item for a Main Menu entry to be displayed, but no MMDATA need be assigned. Any MMDATA assigned to that xx entry is ignored. If a given administered object has null or invalid data in any of the required associated parameters, that object is completely ignored. Therefore for a MMTYPE 01 or 02 entry to be listed on the Main Menu, all three associated parameters must be non-null with valid data. An MMTYPExx of 00 is considered invalid. The default values for Main Menu (MM) objects are: Parameter MMLBL01 MMTYPE01 MMDATA01 MMLBL02 MMTYPE02 MMDATA02 Default Value Contacts (automatically translated into the user interface language). 3 (Local Contacts application). Contacts (English only) Directory (automatically translated into the user interface language). 4 (Local Directory application). Directory (English only).
The default Directory will appear as the first Main Menu object whenever it is not administered in the Main Menu, if there is no 9610 backup file, or if retrieval of the backup file fails.
The DATA terms Contacts and Directory are always administered in English, and are independent of the user interface (UI) language. The administrator can create labels for the local applications in the UI language if desired. The administrator can use, for example, Contacts for a browser-based application, and List for the local Contacts application. Instead, the term used presents the appropriate local application, which does present the UI in the users language. The Main Menu allows up to 10 administrable objects including the two local application objects, Contacts, and Directory so that the total number of items fit on two screens.
Contacts Application Administration

The administrator populates the Contacts Application via the backup file. Each administered object, up to the maximum of 250, must have valid, non-null, data in both of the parameters as indicated: CONLABELxxx (the label displayed to the user for this object) CONDATAxxx In the list of parameters above, xxx is a three-digit integer from 001 to 250 inclusive. To display and associate with the administered data, the three-digit integer must be the same for both parameters. The xxx value includes leading zeroes as applicable. If a given administered object has null or invalid data in any of the two associated parameters, that object is completely ignored. Hence, to be listed in the Contacts application, both associated parameters must be valid and non-null. CONLABELxxx data maps to the corresponding ENTRY_NAME. CONDATAxxx maps to the corresponding ENTRY_NUMBER_1. All contacts are sorted in alphanumeric order on the Phone screen regardless of the order put in the backup/restore file.
The 9610 Idle Application, WMLIDLETIME, SCREENSAVERON, IDLEAPP, and WMLSMALL

The 9610 IP Telephone can present a variety of behaviors if the telephone is left idle for a period of time. WMLIDLETIME - This parameter (set in the 46xxsettings file, if administered) specifies the number of minutes the phone must be idle before an Idle Application specified by IDLEAPP can be presented on the display. SCREENSAVERON - This parameter (set in the 46xxsettings file, if administered) specifies the number of minutes the phone must be idle before the Avaya Screen Saver can be presented on the screen. Note: In the current firmware version, it is not advisable to use both WMLIDLETIME and SCREENSAVERON. For example, one value should be set to 999 and the other to some nominal time, perhaps 30 minutes.
Note:
Issue 8 August 2010
171
WMLSMALL - This parameter (set in the 46xxsettings file, if administered) is required to be non-null for WML links specified in the Main Menu to be displayed. Set this value to a valid URL, and under certain circumstances, it will become the Idle Application displayed on the phone. IDLEAPP - If the IDLEAPP parameter is administered as " " (Null, the default value), when the Web Idle Timer expires, the URL that WMLSMALL points to is presented, if WMLSMALL is administered. If both IDLEAPP and WMLSMALL are null, the 9610 displays the Avaya one-X Screen. If IDLEAPP is administered as: Menu - when the Web Idle Timer expires, the telephone displays the Main Menu application if the Main Menu is not empty. If the Main Menu is empty, the Avaya Screen displays instead. Directory - when the Web Idle Timer expires, the telephone displays the Directory application. If a Directory does not exist, the telephone displays the Avaya Screen. Contacts and LISTAPP is non-null - when the Web Idle Timer expires, the telephone launches the Contacts application. Contacts and LISTAPP is null - and the local Contacts application is not empty when the Web Idle Timer expires, the telephone launches the local Contacts application. If the local Contacts application is empty, the telephone displays the Avaya Screen. Note: The terms Menu, Contacts, and Directory are always administered in English. The terms are independent of the user interface language, since the telephone does not directly present the value of IDLEAPP to the user. Instead, the term is used to present the appropriate local application, which does present the user interface in the users language.
Note:
If IDLEAPP is administered as Directory, and the Directory application is the ACP-based Integrated Directory, then the telephone will have to reinstate the application approximately every minute, since the feature automatically times out after that interval. If the screen saver is displayed, the Idle Application is not visible until the screen saver is removed. The screen saver is removed when the user goes off-hook, presses a button, or the telephone receives an incoming call. For example:
if an IDLEAPP display is desired when the telephone has been idle for 30 minutes, Avaya recommends that IDLEAPP be administered as non-null, that WMLIDLETIME be set to 30 and SCREENSAVERON be set to 999. If a WMLSMALL URL display is desired when the phone has been idle for 30 minutes, Avaya recommends that IDLEAPP be administered as " " (null), that WMLIDLETIME be set to 30, that SCREENSAVERON be set to 999, and that WMLSMALL be administered as a valid URL. To display the Avaya Screen Saver after 30 minutes of telephone idle time, set IDLEAPP to " " (null), set WMLIDLETIME to 999, set WMLSMALL as desired (with a URL if Main Menu WML links are to be displayed, or null if not), and set SCREENSAVERON to 30.
See Sample 9610data.txt File, Sample idle.wml File, and Sample hotel.wml File for examples of generic files to use as templates. Also see the Avaya 9600 Series IP Telephones support Web site for a downloadable example of typical 9610 setup files.
9610 Craft Procedures

Unlike the other 9600 Series IP Telephones, press the Contact button twice instead of pressing Mute to access local procedures.
Troubleshooting a 9610 IP Telephone
If the Directory functionality is not present, make sure that you administer Directory, Next, and Call-disp (the latter which shows as Make call on the telephone) on the CM station form in the first six call appearances/feature buttons. (Applies to pre-CM4.0 only.) Any call appearances/features administered beyond the first six call appearances/feature buttons will be ignored. (Applies to pre-CM4.0 only.) If calls cannot be received on the 9610, check the station administration for a "y" in the "Restrict Last Appearance" field. Change to "n" to allow incoming calls. If the Ext#_9610data.txt" is not set up, the phone will default to the "9610data.txt" file. If the "9610data.txt" file is not set up, the telephone displays the message "Restore Failed." and the default Avaya start screen. In this case, even if CM Directory is administered, the start screen appears and the Directory application will not be available. If Restore Failed appears on the screen when you bring up a 9610, this indicates the telephone could not find or load the backup file. - Check folder and file availability and permissions. - Check to be sure the filename matches the required conventions for individual extensions or generic backup for all 9610 IP Telephones. - Check to be sure the 46xxsettings.txt file has a Set BRURI http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx entry, where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the IP Address of the HTTP server where the 9610data.txt file is stored. - Check to be sure there is a byte order mark (BOM) in the 9610data.txt file. The BOM is generated when the 9610data.txt file is saved in Unicode format.
The WMLSMALL parameter must be non-null for Main Menu WML links to be displayed.

802.1D 802.1Q 802.1X
802.1Q defines a layer 2 frame structure that supports VLAN identification and a QoS mechanism usually referred to as 802.1D. Authentication method for a protocol requiring a network device to authenticate with a back-end Authentication Server before gaining network access. Applicable 9600 Series IP Deskphones support IEEE 802.1X for pass-through and for Supplicant operation with the EAP-MD5 authentication method. Address Resolution Protocol, used, for example, to verify that the IP Address provided by the DHCP server is not in use by another IP telephone. Certificate Authority; the entity which issues digital certificates for use by other parties. Code-excited linear-predictive. Voice compression requiring only 16 kbps of bandwidth. Control LAN, type of Gatekeeper circuit pack. Converged Network Analyzer, an Avaya product to test and analyze network performance; applies to IPv4 only. Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, an IETF protocol used to automate IP Address allocation and management. A key agreement algorithm based on the use of two public parameters p and g that may be used by all users in a system. Parameter p is a prime number and parameter g (usually called a generator) is an integer less than p. A number that determines the public parameters used by the Diffie-Hellman key exchange. To successfully establish a shared secret key, the same DH group must be used by both parties. Differentiated Services, an IP-based QoS mechanism. The digital equivalent of an ID card used in conjunction with a public key encryption system. Digital certificates are issued by a trusted third party known as a "Certificate Authority" (CA) such as VeriSign (www.verisign.com). The CA verifies that a public key belongs to a specific company or individual (the "Subject"), and the validation process it goes through to determine if the subject is who it claims to be depends on the level of certification and the CA itself. 1 of 5

Digital Signature
A digital signature is an encrypted digest of the file (message, document, driver, program) being signed. The digest is computed from the contents of the file by a one-way hash function such as MD5 or SHA-1 and then encrypted with the private part of a public/private key pair. To prove that the file was not tampered with, the recipient uses the public key to decrypt the signature back into the original digest, recomputes a new digest from the transmitted file and compares the two to see if they match. If they do, the file has not been altered in transit by an attacker. Domain Name System, an IETF standard for ASCII strings to represent IP Addresses. The Domain Name System (DNS) is a distributed Internet directory service. DNS is used mostly to translate between domain names and IP Addresses. Avaya 9600 Series IP Deskphones can use DNS to resolve names into IP Addresses. In DHCP, TFTP, and HTTP files, DNS names can be used wherever IP Addresses were available as long as a valid DNS server is identified first. H.323 application that performs essential control, administrative, and managerial functions in the call server. Sometimes called CLAN in Avaya documents. A TCP/IP-based protocol for VoIP signaling. Hypertext Transfer Protocol, used to request and transmit pages on the World Wide Web. A secure version of HTTP. Internet Engineering Task Force, the organization that produces standards for communications on the internet. Internet Key Exchange Protocol, RFC 2409, which has been obsoleted by IKEv2 in RFC 4306. A security mechanism for IP that provides encryption, integrity assurance, and authentication of data; applies only to IPv4. Internet Security Association and Key Management Protocol, RFC 2408, which has been obsoleted by IKEv2 in RFC 4306, defines the procedures for authenticating a communicating peer, creation and management of security associations, key generation techniques, and threat mitigation e.g. Denial of service and Replay Attacks. ISAKMP defines two phases of negotiation. During Phase 1 negotiation, two entities establish an ISAKMP SA, which is used to protect Phase 2 negotiations, in which SAs are established for other protocols. Local Area Network. Link Layer Discovery Protocol. All deskphones with an Ethernet interface support the transmission and reception of LLDP frames on the Ethernet line interface in accordance with IEEE standard 802.1AB. Media Access Control, ID of an endpoint. 2 of 5

Media Channel Encryption NAPT NAT
Encryption of the audio information exchanged between the IP telephone and the call server or far end telephone. Network Address Port Translation. Network Address Translation, a mechanism by which IP addresses are mapped from one address space to another, and in which UDP and TCP port numbers may be remapped to allow multiple devices to share the same IP address without port number conflicts. Off-PBX Station. Hypertext Preprocessor, software used to assist in the format and display of Web pages. Public Switched Telephone Network, the network used for traditional telephony. Quality of Service, used to refer to several mechanisms intended to improve audio quality over packet-based networks. Use IKE to create a new SA with a new SPI. Rivest-Shamir-Adleman; a highly secure asymmetric cryptography method developed by RSA Security, Inc. that uses a public/private key pair. The private key is kept secret by the owner and the public key is published, usually in a digital certificate. Data is encrypted using the recipient's public key, which can only be decrypted by the recipient's private key. RSA is very computation intensive, thus it is often used to encrypt a symmetric session key that is then used by a less computationally-intensive algorithm to encrypt protocol data during a "session". RSA can also be used for authentication by creating a digital signature, for which the sender's private key is used for encryption, and the sender's public key is used for decryption. Resource ReSerVation Protocol, used by hosts to request resource reservations throughout a network; applies to IPv4 audio connections only. RTP Control Protocol, monitors quality of the RTP services and can provide real-time information to users of an RTP service. Real-time Transport Protocol. Provides end-to-end services for real-time data such as voice over IP. Security Association, a security protocol (e.g., IPSEC, TLS) and a specific set of parameters that completely define the services and mechanism necessary to protect security at that security protocol location. These parameters can include algorithm identifiers, modes, cryptographic keys, etc. The SA is referred to by its associated security protocol (for example "ISAKMP SA", "ESP SA", "TLS SA"). Simple Certificate Enrollment Protocol, used to obtain a unique digital certificate. Session Description Protocol. A well-defined format for conveying sufficient information to discover and participate in a multimedia session. 3 of 5
