Configuring the Phone Proxy
Task Flow for Configuring the Phone Proxy in a Mixed-mode Cisco UCM
Cluster
Note For mixed-mode clusters, the phone proxy does not support the Cisco Unified Call Manager using TFTP
to send encrypted configuration files to IP phones through the ASA.
Follow these tasks to configure the phone proxy in a Non-secure Cisco UCM Cluster:
Step 1 Create trustpoints and generate certificates for each entity in the network (Cisco UCM, Cisco UCM and
TFTP, TFTP server, CAPF) that the IP phone must trust. The certificates are used in creating the CTL
file. See Creating Trustpoints and Generating Certificates, page 1-18.
Note Before you create the trustpoints and generate certificates, you must have imported the required
certificates, which are stored on the Cisco UCM. See Certificates from the Cisco UCM, page 1-7
and Importing Certificates from the Cisco UCM, page 1-15
Step 2 Create the CTL file for the phone proxy. See Creating the CTL File, page 1-19.
Note When the phone proxy is being configured to run in mixed-mode clusters, you have the
following option to use an existing CTL file to install the trustpoints. See Using an Existing CTL
File, page 1-20.
Step 3 Create the TLS proxy instance. See Creating the TLS Proxy for a Mixed-mode Cisco UCM Cluster,
page 1-21.
Step 4 Create the media termination instance for the phone proxy. See Creating the Media Termination
Instance, page 1-23.
Step 5 Create the phone proxy instance. See Creating the Phone Proxy Instance, page 1-24.
