Adding an IP Telephone
The 4600-series IP Telephones are physical sets that connect to Avaya Communication Manager via
TCP/IP.
CAUTION:
An Avaya IP endpoint can dial emergency calls (for example, 911 calls in the U.S.). It only
reaches the local emergency service in the Public Safety Answering Point area where the
telephone system has local trunks. Please be advised that an Avaya IP endpoint cannot dial
to and connect with local emergency service when dialing from remote locations that do
not have local trunks. You should not use an Avaya IP endpoint to dial emergency
numbers for emergency services when dialing from remote locations. Avaya Inc. is not
responsible or liable for any damages resulting from misplaced emergency calls made
from an Avaya endpoint. Your use of this product indicates that you have read this
advisory and agree to use an alternative telephone to dial all emergency calls from remote
locations.
