Implementing Port Security for the Avaya Scopia

XT
Series
The Avaya Scopia
®
XT Series provides video technology for room conferencing, including support
for dual stream 1080p video, high quality data sharing, high quality full band audio and a high-
capacity embedded MCU (selected models).
To enable an external XT Series endpoint to communicate with Scopia
®
Solution components within
the organization's network, you need to open firewall ports between the external XT Series endpoint
and the organization. This section details the ports used for the Avaya Scopia
®
XT Series and the
relevant configuration procedures:

Opening Ports for the XT Series
You can deploy Avaya Scopia
®
XT Series endpoints either inside or outside the enterprise network.
When Scopia
®
Solution components are located inside the network, and one or more XT Series
endpoints are outside the network, you must open ports in the firewall to enable the endpoint's
functionality.
Since the location of the XT Series is not fixed, the ports' source and destination differ depending on
your XT Series topology. There are two main deployment topologies for the XT Series, each with
optional additional components:
• XT Series as an endpoint (standard topology)
• XT Series with Scopia
®
XT Desktop (Avaya Scopia
®
XT Series SMB Edition)
Typically, XT Series endpoints connect to a conference managed by Scopia
®
Management, and
hosted on the Scopia
®
Elite MCU. XT Series endpoints may be both within and outside the
enterprise. See
Figure 15: Standard topology for Avaya Scopia
