Cisco Unified IP Phone Security
The security features protect against several threats, including threats to the identity of the conference phone
and to data. These features establish and maintain secure communication streams between the conference
phone and the Cisco Unified Communications Manager server, and digitally sign files before they are delivered.
For more information about the security features, see Cisco Unified IP Conference Phone 8831 Security
Features and also consult the Cisco Unified Communications Manager Security Guide.
Set Up Locally Significant Certificate
You can initiate the installation of a Locally Significant Certificate (LSC) from the Security Configuration
menu on the conference phone. This menu also lets you update or remove an LSC.
To manually configure an LSC on the conference phone, perform these steps:
Before You Begin
Ensure that the appropriate Cisco Unified Communications Manager and the Certificate Authority Proxy
Function (CAPF) security configurations are complete:
•
The CTL file should have a CAPF certificate.
•
On Cisco Unified Communications Operating System Administration, verify that the CAPF certificate
has been installed.
•
The CAPF is running and configured.
For more information, see Cisco Unified Communications Manager Security Guide.
Procedure
Step 1
Obtain the CAPF authentication code that was set when the CAPF was configured.
Step 2
From the phone, choose Apps > Admin Settings > Security Configuration.
You can control access to the Administrator Settings Menu by using the Settings Access field in the
Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration Device Configuration window. For more
information, see the Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration Guide.
Note
Step 3
Scroll to LSC and press Update.
The conference phone prompts for an authentication string.
Step 4
Enter the authentication code and press Submit.
The conference phone begins to install, update, or remove the LSC, depending on how the CAPF was
configured. During the procedure, a notification message is displayed so that you can monitor progress.
The LSC install, update, or removal process can take a long time to complete. You can stop the process at
any time by pressing Exit.
You can verify that an LSC is installed on the conference phone by choosing Apps > Admin Settings >
Security Setup and ensuring that the LSC setting shows Installed.
