• Not all service providers support the entry of a SIP address to initiate a call; for example,
jim@companya.com. Some service providers require that you enter a Directory Number
(DN) to initiate a call; for example, 555-5555. Contact your system administrator to
determine whether your call server supports SIP address dialing.
Security features
Before you can use your IP Deskphone, an ID and password must be assigned to your IP
Deskphone. This security measure ensures that, after you log off, calls cannot be made from your IP
Deskphone and features such as Address Book, Instant Message logs, and Call Outbox are
inaccessible. Your ID and password also prevent unauthorized access to your user profile.
Secure connection
Call security is identified by the presence of a security icon (padlock) that is displayed on the IP
Deskphone screen.
After the IP Deskphone is registered with the SIP Proxy, you can view the security icon when:
• the IP Deskphone is idle
• you are on an active call
The following figure is an example of a secure connection when the IP Deskphone is idle. The
security icon is visible on the IP Deskphone screen.
