Proposed solution for LLDP-configured deskphones
About this task
For LLDP-configured deskphones, activate the switch the deskphone is connected to for LLDP.
This is currently only possible with Extreme switches. Activating the switch for LLDP enables
the switch to send appropriate IP addresses using Avaya/Extreme Proprietary HTTP and/or
HTTPS Server and/or Call Server TLVs.
Note:
The deskphone obtains the HTTP and or HTTPS Server and Call Server IP addresses from
LLDP only if the addresses were not configured through other means such as DHCP Server,
Script File, or statically.
Note:
Set the switch LLDP repeat timer to less than 30 seconds.

Secure Shell Support
Secure Shell (SSH) protocol is a tool that the Avaya Services organization can use to remotely
connect to IP deskphones to monitor, diagnose, or debug deskphone performance. Release
1.0 supports only the SSHv2 version. Because of the sensitive nature of remote access, you
can disable permission with the SSH_ALLOWED parameter. Even if permission is given, the
deskphone has several inbuilt security features.
You can configure the idle or inactivity time that will disable SSH with the SSH_IDLE_TIMEOUT
parameter.
