Chapter 31: Presence support for 1200
Series IP Deskphones
SIP 4.4 introduces support for the Presence feature for 1200 Series IP Deskphone users on Avaya
Aura
®
with Avaya Presence Server (PS).
The Presence feature is configured in SIP 4.4 with the following new configuration parameters:
• RPID_PRESENCE_ENABLE <YES/NO>
• PRES_SERVER_IP <IP address of Presence Server>
If the RPID_PRESENCE_ENABLE parameter is set to YES, RPID-based subscription and
notification messages, required for Avaya Presence Services, are sent.
PRES_SERVER_IP parameter defines the IP address of the Avaya Presence Server.
Important:
If RPID_PRESENCE_ENABLE is configured as YES:
• The IP Deskphone must be configured to use TLS for connection to the SIP proxy.
• USE_PUBLISH_FOR_PRESENCE must be set to YES.
• USE_DEFAULT_DEV_CERT must be set to YES to use the default device certificate for
the TLS connection to Avaya Aura to work with the contact list stored on Avaya Aura
Session Manager.
• ENABLE_SERVICE_PACKAGE must be set to PPM.
• In the phone’s Communication Profile, check Presence Profile and select the appropriate
Presence Server from the drop-down list.
Presence states
Presence dialog has been expanded to include the list of activities according to RFC4480.
The following activities are available when RPID_PRESENCE_ENABLE is set to YES:
