You can specify a customized codec preference list on a global-basis using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.
Out-of-Band DTMF and DTMF Method
The IP phones support out-of-band Dual-Tone Multifrequency (DTMF) mode as referenced in RFC2833. In the Aastra Web
UI, you can enable or disable this feature as required. The "out-of-band DTMF" is enabled by default. In out-of-band
mode, the DTMF audio is automatically clamped (muted) and DTMF digits are not sent in the RTP packets. You can con-
figure out-of-band DTMF on a global-basis using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.
An additional feature on the IP phone allows you to select the DTMF method that the phone uses to send DTMF digits
from the IP phone via INFO messages. You can set the DTMF method as Real-Time Transport Protocol (RTP), SIP INFO, or
both. You can configure the DTMF method on a global or per-line basis using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.
The matrix below details DTMF behavior when the out-of-band DTMF and DTMF method settings are configured in vari-
ous scenarios:
RTP Encryption
The IP Phones include support for Secure Real-time Transfer Protocol (SRTP), using Session Description Protocol Security
(SDES) key negotiation, for encryption and authentication of RTP/RTCP messages sent and received by the Aastra IP
phones on your network.
As administrator, you specify the global SRTP setting for all lines on the IP phone. You can choose among three levels of
SRTP encryption, as follows:
•
SRTP Disabled (default
): IP phone generates and receives non-secured RTP calls. If the IP phone gets called from
SRTP enabled phone, it ignores SRTP tries to answer the call using RTP. If the receiving phone has SRTP only enabled,
the call fails; however, if it has SRTP preferred enabled, it will accept RTP call.
•
SRTP Preferred
: IP phone generates RTP secured calls, and accepts both secured and non-secured RTP calls. If the
receiving phone is not SRTP enabled, it sends non-secured RTP calls instead.
•
SRTP Only
: IP phone generates and accepts RTP secured calls only; all other calls are rejected (fail).
You can override the global setting as necessary, configuring SRTP support on a per-line basis. This allows IP phone users
to have both secured and unsecured lines operating on the same phone.
