NOTE
This feature can also be configured from the User tab, under Supplementary
Services.
Users can enter *18 to Secure Next Call—Uses encrypted media for the next
outbound call (on this call appearance only). This star code is redundant if all
outbound calls are secure by default.
The phone can be configured for secure provisioning using the factory-installed
security certificate. To determine if the Client Certificate is installed on the phone:
•
SPA50XG: Press the Setup button and select Product Info. Scroll to Client
Cert.
•
SPA525G: Press the Setup button and select Status. Select Product
Information. Scroll to Certificate.
•
WIP310: Log in to the web administration interface. In the Info tab, under
Product Information, certificate information is listed in the Client Certificate
field.
Secure Call Indication Tone
This tone is played when a call has been successfully switched to secure mode. It
should be played only for a short while (less than 30 seconds) and at a reduced
level (less than -19 dBm), so it does not interfere with the conversation. You can
configure it on the
Regional
web page under
Call Progress Tones
.
Defaults to 397@-19,507@-19;15(0/2/0,.2/.1/1,.1/2.1/2)
Ensuring Voice Quality
Voice quality perceived by the subscribers of the IP Telephony service should be
indistinguishable from that of the PSTN. Cisco IP phones support several codecs.
