Providing Users with Feature Information
If you are a system administrator, you are likely the primary source of information
for Cisco Unified IP Phone users in your network or company. To ensure that you
distribute the most current feature and procedural information, familiarize
yourself with Cisco Unified IP Phone documentation. Make sure to visit the
Cisco Unified IP Phone web site:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/phones/ps379/tsd_products_support_
series_home.html
From this site, you can access various user guides, including wallet cards.
In addition to providing users with documentation, it is important to inform them
about available Cisco Unified IP Phone features—including features specific to
your company or network—and about how to access and customize those
features, if appropriate.
For a summary of some of the key information that phone users need their system
administrators to provide, see
Appendix A, “Providing Information to Users Via
a Website.”
Understanding Security Features for Cisco Unified IP
Phones
Implementing security in the Cisco Unified Communications Manager system
prevents identity theft of the phone and Cisco Unified Communications Manager
server, prevents data tampering, and prevents call signaling and media stream
tampering.
To alleviate these threats, the Cisco Unified IP telephony network establishes and
maintains authenticated and encrypted communication streams between a phone
and the server, digitally signs files before they are transferred to a phone, and
encrypts media streams and call signaling between Cisco Unified IP phones.
