2.7 Phone Security
There are a number of methods by which additional security can be implemented to ensure that an IP phone does not
adopt the identity of another.
·
Disable Auto-Create Extension
Following installation, disabling Auto-Create Extn Enabled in the IP Office Manager System | Gatekeeper tab stops
new IP devices from assigning themselves as new extensions.
·
Restrict the IP Address or MAC Address
Entering either of these values in the Extension's VoIP tab will restrict usage to that address or device. The MAC
address of an IP phone is printed on a label on the base of the phone.
· Set a User Login Code
If a user Login Code is set, then any other IP device trying to log on as that extension must also enter the correct
login code. If a login code is set, the user can use hot desk to log off and log on elsewhere.
