Server requirements
Issue 1 May 2011 31
HTTP/HTTPS server
Administer the HTTP or HTTPS file server as described in HTTP Generic Setup on page 70.
Network Time Protocol (NTP) server
SIP IP deskphones require NTP server support to set the time and date, used in system log
time stamps and other time/date functions. The NTP server is typically needed by one or more
servers within the enterprise. Administration of the NTP server is beyond the scope of this
document.
Presence server
The deskphone determines the type of primary proxy server during dynamic feature set
discovery and sets the PRIMARY_PROXY_ENVIRONMENT parameter accordingly. When the
PRIMARY_PROXY_ENVIRONMENT is set to 2 (indicating a Session Manager environment),
the deskphone supports the Avaya Aura
®
Presence server. When the
PRIMARY_PROXY_ENVIRONMENT is set to 1 (indicating an SES environment), the
deskphone supports any presence server.
For Session Manager environments
Presence Server versions 6.0 and 6.1 are supported. The following standards and guidelines
dictate how presence is handled:
●
Using the following SIP/SIMPLE RFCs:
- RFC 3863 Presence Information Data Format,
- RFC 4479 A Data Model for Presence, and
- RFC 4480 RPID: Rich Presence Extensions to the Presence Information Data Format
(PIDF).
