Description
Feature
No configuration required.
When a phone is configured as secure (encrypted and
trusted) in Cisco Unified Communications Manager, it
can be given a protected status. Afterward, the protected
phone can be configured to play an indication tone at the
beginning of a call:
•
Protected Device: To change the status of a secure
phone to protected, check the
“
Protected Device
”
check box in Cisco Unified Communications
Manager Administration
(Device
>
Phone
>
Phone
Configuration)
.
•
Play Secure Indication Tone: To enable the protected
phone to play a secure or nonsecure indication tone,
set the
“
Play Secure Indication Tone
”
to True. (The
default is False.) You set this option in Cisco
Unified Communications Manager Administration
(System
>
Service Parameters)
. Select the server
and then the Cisco CallManager service. In the
Service Parameter Configuration window, select the
option in the Feature - Secure Tone area. (The
default is False.)
Only protected phones hear these secure or nonsecure
indication tones. (Nonprotected phones never hear tones.)
If the overall call status changes during the call, the
indication tone changes accordingly. At that time, the
protected phone plays the appropriate tone.
A protected phone plays a tone or not under these
circumstances:
•
When the option to play the tone is enabled Play
Secure Indication Tone option is enabled (True):
◦
When end-to-end secure media is established
and the call status is secure, the phone plays
the secure indication tone (three long beeps
with pauses).
◦
When end-to-end nonsecure media is
established and the call status is nonsecure,
the phone plays the nonsecure indication tone
(six short beeps with brief pauses).
•
If the Play Secure Indication Tone option is disabled,
no tone plays.
