Quick start
This section describes the typical setup of an OpenScape Desk Phone CP endpoint in an envir-
onment using a DHCP server and the web interface. For different scenarios, cross-references to
28 Startup

the corresponding information of the administration sections are given.

Alternatively, the DLS (Deployment Service) administration tool can be used. Its Plug & Play func-
tionality allows to provide the phone with configuration data by assigning an existing data profile
to the phone’s MAC address or E.164 number. For further information, see the Deployment Service
Administration Manual.

Note Any settings made by a DHCP server are not configurable by other configuration
tools.

How to access the web interface (WBM)


Prerequisites

l The phone IP address or URL is required for accessing the phone web interface via a web
browser. By default, the phone will automatically search for a DHCP server on start-up
and try to obtain IP data and further configuration parameters from that central server.
l If no DHCP server is available in the IP network or if the DHCP parameter is disabled, the
IP address, subnet mask and default gateway /router must be defined manually.

Procedure

1. Access the local phone admin menu (see "Access via local phone" à page 29).
l If DHCP is enabled (default): In the admin menu, navigate to Network > IPv4 con-
figuration > IP address. The IP address is displayed.
l If DHCP is disabled or if no DHCP server is available in the IP Network, the IP
address, Subnet mask and default router or gateway must be defined (see "Basic
network configuration" à page 30).
2. Open a web browser and enter the IP address, e.g. https://192.168.1.15 or
https://myphone.phones.
(For configuring the phone DNS name, refer to "Terminal host name" à page 64).
3. If the browser displays a certificate notification, accept it.
4. Click the tab "Administrator settings".
5. Enter the admin password. The default password is “123456”.

The main page of the “Administrator settings” page is displayed. The left column contains the

Basic network configuration


For basic functionality, DHCP must provide the following parameters:

l IP Address: IP Address for the phone.


l Subnet Mask (option #1): Subnet mask of the phone.
l Default Route (option #3 "Router"): IP Address of the default gateway which is used for
connections beyond the subnet.
l DNS IP Addresses (option #6 "Domain Server"): IP Addresses of the primary and sec-
ondary DNS servers.

If no DHCP server is present, see "Manual configuration of the IP address " à page 59 for IP
address and subnet mask, and "Default router / gateway" à page 61 for the default route.
Startup 31

DHCP resilience
Prerequisites

It is possible to sustain Network connectivity in case of DHCP server failure. If “DHCP reuse” is
activated, the phone will keep its DHCP-based IP address even if the lease expires. To prevent
address conflicts, the phone will send ARP requests in 5 second intervals. Additionally, it will
send discovery messages periodically to obtain a new DHCP lease.

Procedure

1. Open Network > Wired settings.


2. Select the checkbox to enable DHCP lease reuse.

Date and time / SNTP


A SNTP (Simple Network Time Protocol) server provides the current date and time for Network
clients. The IP address of a SNTP server can be given by DHCP or can be configured manually
(see "Settings via SNTP" à page 91).

Consistent time for peer entities is required to allow secure interfaces to operate correctly. To
provide the correct time, it is required to give the time zone offset, i.e. the shift in hours to be
added to the UTC time provided by the SNTP server.

The following DHCP options are required:

l SNTP IP Address (option #42 "NTP Servers"): IP Address or hostname of the SNTP server
to be used by the phone.
l Time zone offset (option #2 "Time Offset"): Offset in seconds in relationship to the UTC
time provided by the SNTP server. For manual configuration of date and time see "Date
and time" à page 90.

Extended Network configuration


To have constant access to other subnets, you can enter a total of two more Network des-
tinations. For each further domain / subnet you wish to use, first the IP address for the
32 Startup

destination, and then that of the router must be given. The option’s name and code are as fol-
lows:

l Static Routing Table (Option #33): For manual configuration of specific/static routing,
see "Specific IP routing" à page 61.

Also the DNS domain wherein the phone is located can be specified by DHCP. The option’s
name and code are as follows:

l Domain Name (Option #15): For manual configuration of the DNS domain name, see
"DNS domain name" à page 63.

Vendor-specific VLAN discovery and DLS address


Note The VLAN ID can also be configured by LLDP-MED (see "Automatic VLAN dis-
covery using LLDP-MED" à page 52).

If a DLS (Deployment Service) server is in use, its IP address must be provided. It is recom-
mended to configure the DLS server address by DCHP, as this method enables full Plug & Play:
having received the DLS address from DHCP, the phone will contact the DLS during start-up.
Provided that the DLS is configured appropriately, it will send all necessary configuration data to
the phone. Additionally, this method is relevant to security, as it ensures the authenticity of the
DLS server.

l For manual configuration of the DLS server address see "Configuration & update service"
à page 65.
l For the configuration of vendor-specific settings by DHCP, there are two alternative meth-
ods:
n Using a vendor class (see "Using vendor class" à page 36)
n Using the DHCP option #43 (see "Using option #43 "Vendor Specific"" à page 34)
l For DMS follow the instructions in "Setting the DMS address via DHCP" à page 42.

VLAN discovery
If the phone is located in a VLAN (Virtual LAN), a VLAN ID must be assigned, see "VLAN" à page
51.

If the VLAN is provided by DHCP, VLAN Discovery must be set to "DHCP". The corresponding
DHCP option is vendor-specific, thus a specific procedure is necessary.

l For automatic configuration via LLDP-MED see "Automatic VLAN discovery using LLDP-
MED" à page 52.
l For automatic configuration via DHCP see "Automatic VLAN discovery using DHCP" à
page 52.
l For manual configuration see "Manual configuration of a VLAN ID" à page 54.

For information on how to use a vendor class, refer to "Using vendor class" à page 36
Startup 33

Automatic VLAN discovery using LLDP-MED

This is the default setting. The VLAN ID is configured by the network switch using LLDP-MED
(Link Layer Discovery Protocol-Media Endpoint Discovery). If the switch provides an appropriate
TLV (Type-Length-Value) element containing the VLAN ID, this VLAN ID is used. If no appropriate
TLV is received, DHCP is used for VLAN discovery.

Administration via WBM

1. Open Network > Wired settings.

1. Enable “Use LLDP-MED”.


2. Select “LLDP-MED” in the option “VLAN discovery”.

Using option #43 "Vendor Specific"

Alternatively, option #43 can be used for setting up the VLAN ID. Two tags are required:

l Tag 001: Vendor name


l Tag 002: VLAN ID

The Vendor name tag is coded as follows (the first line indicates the ASCII values, the second
line contains the hexadecimal values):

DLS server address


This setting only applies if a DLS / DMS server is in use.

It is recommended to configure the DLS / DMS server address by DCHP, as this method enables
full Plug & Play and ensures the authenticity of the DLS server.

l For manual configuration of the DLS server address see "Configuration & update service"
à page 65.
l For configuration of the DMS, see "Setting the DMS address via DHCP" à page 42.
l For the configuration of vendor-specific settings by DHCP, there are two alternative meth-
ods:
n the use of DHCP option #43
n the use of a vendor class

For information on how to use a vendor class, refer to "Using vendor class" à page 36

Setting up the DLS Server

1. In the Windows Start menu, select Start > Programs > Administrative Tools > DHCP.
2. Select the DHCP server and the scope.
3. Select "Configure Options" in the context menu using the right mouse button.
36 Startup

4. Enter the IP address and port number of the DLS server.

5. Click Apply.
6. Click OK.

Using vendor class


It is recommended to define a vendor class on the DHCP server, thus enabling server and phone
to exchange vendor-specific data exclusively. The data is disclosed from other clients. If not
done already, create a vendor class by the name of "OptiIpPhone".

The following steps are required for the configuration of the Windows DHCP server.

Setup using the Windows DHCP Server

1. In the Windows Start menu, select Start > Programs > Administrative Tools > DHCP.
2. In the DHCP console menu, right-click the required DHCP server and select Define Vendor
Classes... in the context menu.
Startup 37

3. Click Add.

4. Define a new vendor class with the name OptiIpPhone and enter a description of this
class.

5. Click OK. The new vendor class now appears in the list.
6. Close the window.

Add options to the new vendor class

Two options or tags is added to the vendor class. Two passes are needed:

l In the first pass, tag #1 with the required value "Siemens" is entered.
l In the second pass, the DLS address is entered as tag #3.

Note For DHCP servers on a Windows 2003 Server (pre-SP2): Windows 2003 Server con-


tains a bug that prevents you from using the DHCP console to create an option
with the ID 1 for a user-defined vendor class. Instead, this entry must be created
with the netsh tool in the command line (DOS shell).

You can use the following command to configure the required option (without error message) so
that it also appears later in the DHCP console:

netsh dhcp server add optiondef 1


"Optipoint element 001" STRING 0
vendor=OptiIpPhone comment="Tag 001
for Optipoint"

The value SIEMENS for optiPoint Element 1 can then be re-assigned over the DHCP console.
38 Startup

This error was corrected in Windows 2003 Server SP2.

1. In the DHCP console menu, right-click the DHCP server in question and select Set Pre-
defined Options from the context menu.

2. In the dialogue, select the previously defined OptiIpPhone class and click on Add... to add
a new option.

3. Enter the following data for the new option:


l First Pass: Option 1
n Name: Free text, e. g. "OptiIpPhone element 01"
n Data type: "String"
n Code: "1"
n Description: Free text.
Startup 39

l Second Pass: Option 3


n Name: Free text, e. g. "OptiIpPhone element 03"
n Data type: "String"
n Code: "3"
n Description: Free text.

4. Enter the value for this option.


l First Pass: "Siemens"
l Second Pass: DLS address The DLS address has the following format:
PROTOCOL:://IP ADDRESS OF DLS SERVER:PORT NUMBER Example:
sdlp://192.168.3.30:18443

5. Click OK.
6. Repeat steps 2 to 5 for the second pass.
40 Startup

Defining the scope for the new vendor class

1. Select the DHCP server in question and the Scope and right-click Scope Options. Select
Configure Options... in the context menu.

2. Select the Advanced tab. Under Vendor class, select the class that you previously defined
(OptiIpPhone) and, under User class, select Default User Class.

3. Activate the options that you want to assign to the scope (in this example, 001 and 003).
4. The DHCP console shows the information that is transmitted for the corresponding work-
points. Information from the Standard vendor is transmitted to all clients, whereas inform-
ation from the OptiIpPhone vendor is transmitted only to the clients (workpoints) in this
vendor class.

Setup using a DHCP server on Unix/Linux

The following snippet from a DHCP configuration file (usually dhcpd.conf) shows how to set up
a configuration using a vendor class and the "vendor-encapsulated-options" option.

Setting the DMS address via DHCP


When an IP phone is booting, it first obtains an IP address via DHCP. The DHCP server can
provide the DMS address to the phone via Option #43 or Option #66.

Note The DMS address is mutually exclusive with a possibly provided DLS address. A
phone can either connect to a DLS or DMS server.

Using option #43


DHCP vendor specific option #43 can specify a voice VLAN ID and URL of a BroadSoft DMS
server. IP phones will recognize vendor specific options only, if vendor string (here: "Siemens")
matches correctly. All values are given in hexadecimal numbering format.

Example

Tag Length Content (Example)

01 07 5369656d656e73

Cloud deployment
This section describes how a phone progresses through the cloud deployment process from
factory start-up until the cloud service provider considers it to be ready for use by its user.

The phone determines that a cloud deployment process is to be used based on the IP settings it
receives from the DHCP at the customer site. The “Unify Redirect” server redirects the phone to
a DLS-WPI based management system operated by the cloud service provider. This man-
agement system completes the configuration of the phone with all the information required for it
to be usable and may also customize the phone for the cloud service provider's "house" style.

If zero touch deployment is available the phone is automatically connected to the management
system. However, if zero touch deployment is not possible, then a cloud deployment pin must be
entered at the phone. This PIN is a code that determines which cloud service provider is respons-
44 Startup

ible for the phone. The code is provided as part of a pin supplied from the cloud organization to
the user.

Process of cloud deployment


The following flow chart shows the way from a factory start-up until a user prepared OpenScape

Reducing deployment time with a deployment parameter


To reduce the installation time of a phone connected to a DLS, the administrator enters a deploy-
ment parameter and leaves the installation process to the DLS.

1. Press the key and connect the phone to the power supply or PoE.
2. When the phone displays the screen for entering the PIN, enter one of the following
numbers: 
l The e164-number of the phone that enables the DLS to recognise it.
l The deployment pin of the redirect server to identify the appropriate DLS that can
provide the correct plug & play data for installation.
l A security pin if the DLS needs to bootstrap the phone into secure mode com-
munication with the DLS.
3. Conclude input with . The installation proceeds.

Aborting cloud deployment process by user


The phone detects that a cloud deployment is required and starts the cloud deployment process.
The phone expects the input of the PIN by the user. At this point the user has the option to can-
cel the process. If the user confirms his decision, the deployment process is aborted.
Startup 47

Re-trigger cloud deployment


Cloud deployment may be restarted by triggering a factory reset:

l The DLS-WPI requests a restart to factory defaults of the phone.


l The phone restart then triggers the cloud deployment process.

Deployment errors
During deployment the display will always show deployment specific information. A persistent
warning displays the information that is shown in an idle screen error after deployment failed.

l It is shown to notify the phone User that deployment failed to complete as expected.
l It is a non-timed warning popup
l It is non-dismissible by user action
l It is shown over the idle screen only
l It is shown/re-shown whenever the idle screen is displayed or redisplayed to the user
l It is formatted as the warning icon followed by a warning text which ends in a code dis-

LAN settings

LAN port settings


The OpenScape Desk Phone CP phones provide an integrated switch that connects the LAN, the
phone and a PC port. By default, the switch will auto negotiate the transfer rate (10/100/1000
Mbps), autosensing, configurable, and duplex method (full or half duplex) with the equipment
connected. Optionally, the required transfer rate and duplex mode can be specified manually
using the LAN port speed parameter.

Note In the default configuration, the LAN port supports automatic detection of cable
configuration (pass through or crossover cable) and will reconfigure itself as
needed to connect to the network. If the phone is set up to manually configure the
switch port settings, the cable detection mechanism is disabled. In this case care
must be taken to use the correct cable type.

The PC Ethernet port (default setting: disabled) is controlled by the PC port mode parameter.

l If set to "Disabled", the PC port is inactive.


l If set to "Enabled", the PC port is active.
l If set to "Mirror", the data traffic at the LAN port is mirrored at the PC port. This setting is
for diagnostic purposes. If, for instance, a PC running Ethereal / Wireshark is connected
to the PC port, all network activities at the phone’s LAN port can be captured.

Note Do not use this connection for further phones!

Note Removing the power from the phone or a phone reset or reboot will result in the
temporary loss of the network connection to the PC port.

When PC port autoMDIX is enabled, the switch determines automatically whether a regular MDI
connector or a MDI-X (crossover) connector is needed, and configures the connector accord-
ingly.

VLAN
VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) is a technology that allows Network administrators to par-
tition one physical Network into a set of virtual networks (or broadcast domains).

Partitioning a physical Network into separate VLANs allows a Network administrator to build a
more robust Network infrastructure. A good example is a separation of the data and voice net-
works into data and voice VLANs. This isolates the two networks and helps shield the endpoints
within the voice Network from disturbances in the data Network and vice versa.

Note The implementation of a voice Network based on VLANs requires the Network
infrastructure (the switch fabric) to support VLANs.

l In a layer-1 VLAN, the ports of a VLAN aware switch are assigned to a VLAN statically.
The switch only forwards traffic to a particular port if that port is a member of the VLAN
that the traffic is allocated to. Any device connected to a VLAN assigned port is auto-
matically a member of this VLAN, without being a VLAN aware device itself. If two or
more Network clients are connected to one port, they cannot be assigned to different
VLANs. When a Network client is moving from one switch to another, the switches’ ports
have to be updated accordingly by hand.
l With a layer-2 VLAN, the assignment of VLANs to Network clients is realized by the MAC
addresses of the Network devices. In some environments, the mapping of VLANs and
MAC addresses can be stored and managed by a central database. Alternatively, the
VLAN ID, which defines the VLAN whereof the device is a member, can be assigned dir-
ectly to the device, e. g. by DHCP. The task of determining the VLAN for which an Ethernet
packet is destined is carried out by VLAN tags within each Ethernet frame. As the MAC
addresses are (more or less) wired to the devices, mobility does not require any admin-
istrator action, as opposed to layer 1 VLAN.

The phone must be configured as a VLAN aware endpoint if the phone itself is a member of the
voice VLAN, and the PC connected to the phone’s PC port is a member of the data VLAN.

There are 3 ways for configuring the VLAN ID:


52 Administration

l By LLDP-MED (with fallback to DHCP)


l By DHCP
l Manually

Automatic VLAN discovery using LLDP-MED


This is the default setting. The VLAN ID is configured by the network switch using LLDP-MED
(Link Layer Discovery Protocol-Media Endpoint Discovery). If the switch provides an appropriate
TLV (Type-Length-Value) element containing the VLAN ID, this VLAN ID is used. If no appropriate
TLV is received, DHCP is used for VLAN discovery.

Administration via WBM

1. Open Network > Wired settings.

2. Enable “Use LLDP-MED”.


3. Set “VLAN discovery” to “LLPD-MED”.
4. Select the “Time to live” (TTL) in seconds.
l Value range: 40…400 seconds
l Default: 120 seconds
5. Click Submit.

Automatic VLAN discovery using DHCP


To automatically discover a VLAN ID using DHCP (except LLDP-MED), the phone must be con-
figured as “DHCP”. The DHCP server is configured to supply the Vendor Unique Option in the cor-
rect VLAN over DHCP format (see "Using option #43 "Vendor Specific"" à page 53).
Administration 53

If a phone configured for VLAN discovery by DHCP fails to discover its VLAN, it will proceed to
configure itself from the DHCP within the non-tagged LAN. Under these circumstances, network
routing may not be correct.

Administration via WBM

1. Open Network > Wired settings.

2. Deselect “Use LLDP-MED”.


3. Select “DHCP” in the VLAN discovery option.

Alternatively, option #43 can be used for setting up the VLAN ID. Two tags are required:

l Tag 001: Vendor name


l Tag 002: VLAN ID
l Tag 003: DLS IP address

Optionally, the DLS address can be given in an alternative way:

l Tag 004: DLS hostname

The Vendor name tag is coded as follows (the first line indicates the ASCII values, the second
line contains the hexadecimal values):
54 Administration

Code Length Vendor name

1 7 S i e m e n s

01 07 53 69 65 6D 65 6E 73

The following example shows a VLAN ID with the decimal value "10":

Code Length VLAN ID

2 4 0 0 1 0

02 04 00 00 00 0A

The DLS IP address tag consists of the protocol prefix "sdlp://", the IP address of the DLS server,
and the DLS port number, which is "18443" by default. The following example illustrates the syn-
tax:

Manual configuration of a VLAN ID


To configure VLAN manually, the phone must be provided with a VLAN ID between 1 and 4095.

Note If you misconfigure a phone to an incorrect VLAN, the phone will not connect to
the network. If in static IP mode, no server connections is possible.

IP Network parameters

Quality of Service (QoS)


The QoS technology based on layer-2 and the two QoS technologies Diffserv and TOS / IP Pre-
cedence based on layer-3 are allowing the VoIP application to request and receive predictable
service levels in terms of data throughput capacity (bandwidth), latency variations (jitter), and
delay.

Note Layer-2 and -3 QoS for voice and signaling transmission can be set via LLDP-MED
(see "Automatic VLAN discovery using LLDP-MED" à page 52). The value cannot
be changed by another interface.

Layer 2 / 802.1p
QoS on layer-2 is using 3 Bits in the 802.1q/p 4-Byte VLAN tag which must be added in the Eth-
ernet header.

The CoS (class of service) value can be set from 0 to 7. 7 is describing the highest priority and is
reserved for Network management. 5 is used for voice (RTP-streams) by default. 3 is used for
signaling by default.

Layer-3 / Diffserv
Diffserv assigns a class of service to an IP packet by adding an entry in the IP header.

Traffic flows are classified into 3 per-hop behavior groups:


Administration 57

l Default: Any traffic that does not meet the requirements of any of the other defined
classes is placed in the default per-hop behaviour group. Typically, the forwarding has
best-effort forwarding characteristics. The DSCP (Diffserv Codepoint) value for Default is
"0 0 0 0 0 0".
l Expedited Forwarding (EF referred to RFC 3246): Expedited Forwarding is used for voice
(RTP streams) by default. It effectively creates a special low-latency path in the Network.
The DSCP (Diffserv Codepoint) value for EF is "1 0 1 1 1 0".
l Assured Forwarding (AF referred to RFC 2597): Assured forwarding is used for signaling
messages by default (AF31). It is less stringent than EF in a multiple dropping system.
The AF values are containing two digits X and Y (AFXY), where X is describing the priority
class and Y the drop level.
Four classes X are reserved for AFXY: AF1Y (low priority), AF2Y, AF3Y and AF4Y (high pri-
ority).
Three drop levels Y are reserved for AFXY: AFX1 (low drop probability), AFX2 and AFX3
(High drop probability). In the case of low drop level, packets are buffered over an exten-
ded period in the case of high drop level, packets are promptly rejected if they cannot be
forwarded.

Use DHCP
If this parameter is set to "Yes" (default), the phone will search for a DHCP server on start-up and
try to obtain IP data and further configuration parameters from that central server.

Note The data obtained via DHCP cannot be changed with DHCP enabled. Also, when
DHCP is enabled, the data read from the server overwrites current values on the
phone

If no DHCP server is available in the IP network, deactivate this option. In this case, the IP
address, subnet mask, and default gateway / route must be defined manually.

Note The change will only have effect if you restart the phone. The phone is able to
maintain its IP connection even in case of DHCP server failure.

DHCP parameters

The following parameters can be obtained by DHCP:

l Basic Configuration
n IP Address
n Subnet Mask
l Optional Configuration
n Default Route (Routers option 3)
n IP Routing / Route 1 & 2 (Static Routes option 33), Classless static route option 121,

Configuration & update service


All items can be administered by management applications in both OpenScape and non
OpenScape networks. Among the most important features are:
66 Administration

l Security (e.g. PSS generation and distribution within an SRTP security domain)
l Mobility for OpenScape SIP phones
l Software deployment
l Plug & play support
l Error and activity logging.

OpenScape Deployment Service (DLS) address, i.e. the IP address or host name of the DLS
server, and default mode port, i.e. the port on which the DLS server is listening, are required to
enable proper communication between phone and DLS.

The mode (labeled “Mode” in the local phone administration menu) determines the security level
for the communication between the phone and the DLS. Mutual authentication establishes a
higher security level of the connection by mutually exchanging credentials between the DLS and
the phone. After this, the communication is encrypted, and a different port is used, thus ensuring
that the phone is unambiguously connected to the correct DLS server.

It is possible to operate the DLS server behind a firewall or NAT (Network Address Translation),
which prevents the DLS from sending “Contact-Me” messages directly to the phone:

l The DLS server requests the phone to contact it by sending a HTTP “Contact-Me” request
or by leaving a request at the DCMP poll server for the phone to check periodically.
l The phone always establishes the connection to the DLS server.

Only outbound connections from the phone are allowed. To overcome this restriction, a DLS
“Contact-Me” proxy (DCMP) can be deployed. The phone periodically polls the DCMP, which is
placed outside of the phone network, for pending contact requests from the DLS. If there are con-
tact requests, the phone will send a request to the DLS in order to obtain the update, just as with
a regular DLS connection.

Note The URI of the DCMP, as well as the polling interval, are configured by the DLS. For
this purpose, it is necessary that the phone establishes a first contact to the DLS,
e. g. by phone restart or local configuration change.

A security PIN can be provided which is used for decrypting data provided by the DLS during
bootstrap. For further information, refer to the DLS documentation.

Device management service (DMS)

The DMS is a configuration file based deployment service which can be used instead of a DLS.
The DMS address can be provided manually or via DHCP for a full plug & play installation (see
"Setting the DMS address via DHCP" à page 42).

The DMS is compatible to the Broadsoft DMS and the RingCentral provisioning server. A detailed
description can be found here: https://wiki.unify.com/wiki/Device_Management_System

SNMP
The Simple Network Management Protocol is used by network management systems for mon-
itoring network-attached devices for conditions that warrant administrative attention. An SNMP
manager surveys and, if needed, configures several SNMP elements, e.g. VoIP phones.

Note OpenScape Desk Phone CP phones support SNMPv1.

Trap categories

There are currently 3 trap categories that can be sent by the phones:

l Standard SNMP traps: OpenScape Desk Phone CP phones support the following types of
standard SNMP traps, as defined in RFC 1157:
n coldStart: sent if the phone does a full restart.
n warmStart: sent if only the phone software is restarted.
n linkUp: sent when IP connectivity is restored.
l QoS Related traps: These traps are designed specifically for receipt and interpretation by
the QDC collection system. The traps are common to SIP phones, HFA phones, Gateways,
etc.
l Traps specific to OpenScape Desk Phone CP phones. Currently, the following traps are
defined:
n TraceEventFatal: sent if severe trace events occur; aimed at expert users.
n TraceEventError: sent if severe trace events occur; aimed at expert users.

Setting up a WiFi connection


When a WiFi-enabled phone is set up for the first time using only Wi-Fi to establish a LAN con-
nection, a temporary Wi-Fi connection is used. The device is connected to a predefined WiFi with
the following configuration:

l SSID: AWS-INIT
l Security key: WPA-PSK / WPA2-PSK
l WPA-PSK passphrase: AWS-INIT

All other Network parameters are at their default settings:

l DHCP mode: On
l 11 protocol: 802.11b/g/n
l 11b/g/n channels: 1,6,11
l World mode regulatory domain: World mode (802.11d)

If the phone is not successfully connected to this Wi-Fi within ten seconds, it will try to connect
to an unsecured Network for ten seconds. If this also fails, it will continue to try these two altern-
atives for ten seconds each until one succeeds. This process can also be interrupted by con-
figuring the phone either through the local phone menu or through the DLS using prestaging. As
soon as one of the Networks A-D has a SSID filled in, probing of AWS-INIT will stop.

Wi-Fi discovery requires that the DHCP server is configured to return a valid DLS IP address as
part of the DHCP response sent to the phone. The DLS IP address is sent using DHCP Option 43
(vendor specific data).
74 Administration

Once the phone has acquired a DLS address, it will open up a secure connection to DLS for down-
loading configuration parameters using the WPI protocol. Any certificates needed for Wi-Fi
authentication or SIP/TLS will also be downloaded as a part of this process. If a DLS address is
specified in the downloaded configuration, that DM is used subsequently. If not, the DLS dis-
covery procedure is used for each time the phone is started. The downloaded configuration
should also contain a new Network configuration, which will cause the phone to disconnect from
the AWS-INIT SSID.

HFA gateway settings


To connect the OpenScape Desk Phone CP phone to the OpenScape system, the data described
in the following are required.

The Gateway address is the IP address of the communication platform or HFA server.

The Gateway port is the port used by the HFA server for signaling messages. Usually, the default
value "4060" is correct.

The Subscriber number is used as the internal extension number of the phone. It can be 1 to 24
characters long.

To log on to the HFA server, a subscriber password must be provided. A new subscriber pass-
word can be entered by the administrator.

The System type is provided by the system the phone is connected to and therefore read-only.

Administration via WBM

1. Open System > Gateway.

2. Select the system tape and provide the following information:


l IP address: IP or DNS address of the communication platform or HFA server.
l Subscriber number: The phone extension.
l Password: Password for logging on to the HFA server.
Administration 79

3. Click Submit.
4. Open Network > Port number configuration.

Optionally, a Gateway ID can be provided. The Gateway ID refers to the PBX / Gateway / Gate-
keeper to which the phone is connected. The value is the same as the "Globid" parameter in the
OpenScape 4000 or "H.323 ID" in the OpenScape Business.

Redundancy
This section controls the switching between main HFA server and standby HFA server.

Administration via WBM

1. Open System > Redundancy.

l When “Small remote side redundancy” is activated, the phone switches to the standby
HFA server if the connection to the main server is lost. By default, this is disabled.
l When “Auto switch back” is activated, the phone will switch back to the main server as
soon as the connection is re-established. By default, this is disabled.
l “Retry count main” sets the number of trials to establish a connection to the main server
before the phone switches over to the standby server. The default is 1.
l The “Timeout main” determines the time interval between the last try to get a con­nection
to the main server and the establishing of a connection to the standby server. The default
is 30.
l “Retry Count Standby” sets the number of trials to establish a connection to the standby
server before the phone switches back to the main server. The default is 3.
l “Timeout Standby” sets the timeout between two "Retry count standby". The default is 30.
l “Timeout main” sets the timeout between two "Retry count main". The default is 30.
l “TC test retry” determines the count of how many successful TC tests the main system
needs to answer before the phone switches back with Auto switchback enabled. The
default is 3.
l “TC Test Expiry” determines how long the Previous connection needs to timeout to actu-
ally trigger any further SRSR activities.
How much time to wait from one unsuccessful retry count main sequence until the next
happens and in which interval the phone will send itself a TC test message (in idle mode).
The default is 30.
Lowering this value will significantly increase Network load but the phone might detect
failures faster but at an increased risk of false positive detections due to short time Net-
work outage.
After a change of the timing values the SRSR need to be deactivated and re-activated
again to take effect.

LIN
The Location Identification Number (LIN) is a number code that provides detailed geographic
information about the phone, including the office room. On issuing an emergency call using the
E.911 emergency number (see "Emergency number" à page 83), this code is transferred to an
ALI (Automatic Location Information) system in the public Network. When the ALI has looked up
the location data in its database, it transmits the data along with the call to the PSAP. The emer-
gency operator is presented with the location data in readable form, so he can dispatch help as
appropriate.

l The security log upload may be accomplished in two ways:


n If "Automatic archive to DLS" is enabled, if the security log reaches the threshold %
for unachieved entries, the phone will initiate an upload.
n If "Automatic archive to DLS" is NOT enabled and the security log reaches the
threshold % for unachieved entries, the phone only sets the "archive-me" flag, it does
not initiate the archive.
It is up to the DLS to recognize the flag and initiate an upload.

Date and time


If the DHCP server in the Network provides the IP address of the SNTP server, no manual con-
figuration is necessary. If not, you have to set the SNTP IP address parameter manually.

For correct display of the current time, the Timezone offset must be set appropriately. This is the
time offset from UTC (Universal Time Coordinated). If, for instance, the phone is located in
Munich, Germany, the offset is +1 (or simply 1); if it is located in Los Angeles, USA, the offset is -
8. For countries or areas with half-our time zones, like South Australia or India, non-integer val-
ues can be used, for example 10.5 for South Australia (UTC +10:30).

If the phone is located in a country with DST (Daylight Saving Time), you can choose whether
DST is toggled manually or automatically.

l For manual toggling, disable “Auto time change” and enable or disable “Daylight saving”;
the change is in effect immediately.
l For automatic toggling, enable “Auto time change”. Daylight saving is controlled by the
DST zone / time zone parameter. This parameter determines when DST starts or ends,
and must be set according to the location of the phone.
Administration 91

The difference (minutes) parameter defines how many minutes the clock is put forward for DST.
In Germany, for instance, the value is +60.

Note The Difference (minutes) must be specified both for manual and automatic DST
toggling.

Dialing

Canonical dialing configuration


Call numbers taken from a directory application, LDAP for instance, are mostly expressed in
canonical format. Moreover, call numbers entered or imported (e.g. from Outlook) into the local
phone book are automatically converted and stored in canonical format, thereby adding "+", local
country code, local national code, and local enterprise number as prefixes.

Example

The user enters the extension "1234", the local country code is "49", the local national code is
"89", and the local enterprise number is "722". The resulting number in canonical format is
"+49897221234".

Note To enable the number conversion, all parameters not marked as optional must be
provided, and the canonical lookup settings must be configured (see "Canonical
dialing look-up" à page 161).
Changes to these parameters can impact the phone's ability to match calls to con-
tacts.

Administration via WBM

For generating an appropriate dial string, a conversion from canonical format may be required.
The following parameters determine the local settings of the phone, like Local country code or
local national code, and define rules for converting from canonical format to the format required
by the PBX.
Administration 93

1. Open Local functions > Locality > Canonical dial settings.

l Local country code: E.164 country code, e.g. "49" for Germany, "44" for United King-
dom
n Maximum length: 5
l National prefix digit: prefix for national connections, e.g. "0" in Germany and United
Kingdom
n Maximum length: 5
l Local national code: local area code or city code, e.g. "89" for Munich, "20" for Lon-
don
n Maximum length: 6
l Minimal local number length: minimum number of digits in a local PSTN number,
e.g. 3335333 = 7 digits
l Local enterprise node: number of the company/PBX wherein the phone is residing
n Maximum length: 10 (optional)
l PSTN access code: access code used for dialing out from a PBX to a PSTN
n Maximum length: 10 (optional)
l International access code: international prefix used to dial to another country, e.g.
"00" in Germany and United Kingdom.
n Maximum length: 5
l Operator codes: List of extension numbers for a connection to the operator. The
numbers entered here are not converted to canonical format
n Maximum length: 50 (optional)
l Emergency numbers: List of emergency numbers to be used for the phone. If there
are more than one numbers, they must be separated by commas. The numbers
entered here are not converted to canonical format.
n Maximum length: 50 (optional)
94 Administration

l Initial extension digits: List of initial digits of all possible extensions in the local
enterprise network. When a call number could not be matched as a public network
number, the phone checks if it is part of the local enterprise network. This is done
by comparing the first digit of the call number to the value(s) given here. If it
matches, the call number is recognized as a local enterprise number and pro-
cessed accordingly.
For instance, the extensions 3000-5999 are configured in the OpenScape Desk
Phone, each number will start with 3, 4, or 5. Therefore, the digits to be entered are
3, 4, 5.
l Expect dial number: Indicates when PSTN access code and national prefix digit is
retained and not converted into the international access code
2. Open Local functions > Locality > Canonical dial.

l Internal numbers

Note To enable the phone to discern internal numbers from external numbers, it
is crucial that a canonical lookup table is provided ("Canonical dialing look-
up" à page 161).

n "Local enterprise form": Default value. Any extension number is dialed in its simplest
form. For an extension on the local enterprise node, the node ID is omitted. If the
extension is on a different enterprise node, then the appropriate node ID is prefixed to
the extension number. Numbers that do not correspond to an enterprise node exten-
sion are treated as external numbers.
n "Always add node": Numbers that correspond to an enterprise node extension are
always prefixed with the node ID, even those on the local node. Numbers that do not
correspond to an enterprise node extension are treated as external numbers.
n "Use external numbers": All numbers are dialed using the external number form.
l External numbers
n "Local public form": Default value. All external numbers are dialed in their simplest
form. Thus a number in the local public network region does not have the region code
prefix. Numbers in the same country but not in the local region are dialed as national
numbers. Numbers for a different country are dialed using the international format.
n "National public form": All numbers within the current country are dialed as national
numbers, thus even local numbers will have a region code prefix (as dialing from a
mobile). Numbers for a different country are dialed using the international format.
n "International form": All numbers are dialed using their full international number
format.
l External access code
n "Not required": The access code to allow a public network number to be dialed is not
required.
Administration 95

n "For external numbers": Default value. All public network numbers is prefixed with the
access code that allows a number a call to be routed outside the enterprise network.
However, international numbers that use the + prefix will not be given access code.
l International gateway code:
n "Use national code": Default value. All international formatted numbers is dialed expli-
citly by using the access code for the international gateway to replace the "+" prefix.
n "Leave as +": All international formatted numbers is prefixed with "+".

Canonical dial look-up


The parameters given here are important for establishing outgoing calls and for recognizing
incoming calls.

In the local phone book, and, mostly, in LDAP directories, numbers are stored in canonical
format. In order to generate an appropriate dial string according to the settings in Internal num-
bers and External numbers, internal numbers must be discerned from external numbers(see
"Canonical dialing configuration" à page 92). The canonical look-up table provides patterns
which allow for operation.

Furthermore, these patterns enable the phone to identify callers from different local or inter-
national telephone networks by looking up the caller’s number in the phone book. As incoming
numbers are not always in canonical format, their composition must be analyzed first. For this
96 Administration

purpose, an incoming number is matched against one or more patterns consisting of country
codes, national codes, and enterprise nodes. Then, the result of this operation is matched
against the entries in the local phone book.

Note To make sure that canonical dial look-up works properly, at least the following
parameters of the phone must be provided:

l Local country code


l Local area code
l Local enterprise code

You can view and edit the first five entries via the WBM. The Local code 1…5 parameters define
up to 5 different local enterprise nodes, whilst International code 1…5 define up to 5 international
codes, that is, fully qualified E.164 call numbers for use in a PSTN. The whole list of entries are
not visible on the phone but can be seen and handled using the DLS.

Administration via WBM

1. Open Locality > Canonical dial lookup.

l Local code 1…5: Local enterprise code for the node / PBX the phone is connected to.
n Example: "7007" for Unify office in Munich.
l International code 1…5: Sequence of "+", local country code, local area code, and local
enterprise node corresponding to one or more phone book entries.
n Example: "+49897007" for Unify office in Munich.

Distinctive ringing
The HFA server may provide information indicating a specific type of call within an incoming
call. The phone can use this information to choose a ring tone according to the call type. A list of
different ring types is maintained in the phone.

Any ringer sound may either be

l OpenScape specified tones


l Audio file (selected from the pool of ringer files on the phone)
l Constructed (from melody and tone sequence settings)

The ringer sounds are system controlled by default.

Note Once distinctive ringing is configured locally a system control of the ringer para-
meters is not possible. If system control of the ringer is desired the ringer mode
must be set to "OpenScape".

Even though the ringers are configured locally the behaviour of the ringers should be the same
as system controlled ones. In particular, cyclic ringers shall be played endlessly until the switch
commands to stop playing (and therefore repeated if necessary), whereas single shot ringers
should play for just a short period - the intention being to alert the phone user to a new state of
the phone but not to hinder the ongoing conversation. This short period is defined to be 3 sec­
onds. It should be possible to interrupt the playing of the cyclic ringer to play the single shot
ringer and after timeout the cyclic ringing should resume. This behaviour is independent of
whether low or high quality ringer files are played or whether the ringer is pattern generated.

The value in Octet 12 in the CorNet AU_RINGER_START message is used as an index into ringers
configured on the phone. The indexed entry indicates the ringing to be used for the call.
98 Administration

In any cases if a distinctive ring is requested then the associated ring type is used instead of the
default ringer. The ringing is played immediately when requested. If distinctive ringing is not
requested or cannot be matched to a ringer then, the tone specified in the CorNet ringer mes-
sage by the OpenScape system will be used to construct the ring tone.

Distinctive ringer naming

There is no configuration necessary to set the names. CorNet specifies the ringer types and enu-
merations. Please be aware that the naming refers to the call type as sent in the CorNet mes-
sage, not to be confused with a feature or a call scenario. The mapping of call type to fe­ture or
call scenario occurs in the system and this may be configurable. It is up to the administrator to
configure such that the user hears the required ring tones for the various features or call scen-
arios. Also note that only the set of call types actually implemented by the system should be
offered for configuration of the ringers.

Currently OpenScape Business only implements a subset of those in CorNet. It is assumed that
this set is relatively stable.

Ringer setting and preview

The configuration of distinctive ringers overlaps considerably with the general ringer con-
figuration feature and the ability to preview (manually and automatically) what a ringer sounds
like.

Administration via WBM

1. Open Ringer > Local ringers.

2. Select the ringer sound, pattern melody and sequence for each name.
l Ringer sound: "Pattern" or the name of the selected ring tone file. Sets the dis-
tinctive ring­er to use the currently set pattern (melody and sequence). This is the
pattern that will be used if the configured ring tone file cannot be played for any
reason.
n Value range: "Pattern", "<audio file>"
n Default: "Pattern".
l Pattern melody: Selects the melody pattern that will be used if Ringer sound is set
to "Pattern".
n Value range: "1"... "8"
n Default: "2".
Administration 99

l Pattern sequence: Determines the length for the melody pattern, and the interval
between the repetitions of the pattern.
n Value range: "1": 1 sec ON, 4 sec OFF "2": 1 sec ON, 2 sec OFF "3": 0.7 sec ON,
0.7 sec OFF, 0.7 sec ON, 3 sec OFF
n Default: "2".

Free programmable keys


The key programming can be accessed via the local phone and via DLS / DMS.

l The OpenScape Desk Phone CP710 comes with 12 free programmable keys with LED
(red / green / amber), all of which can be programmed on two separate levels. The 6 first
programmable keys are permanently displayed on the left panel. The 6 last pro-
grammable keys are available in “Favorites”. The number of programmable keys can be
increased by attaching one or more OpenScape key modules to the phone, with up to four
KM710 providing 12 FPKs each or up to four KM410 providing 16 FPKs each.
l The OpenScape Desk Phone CP410 phone provides 16 free programmable keys (FPKs)
when a key module is not plugged in, which can be associated with special phone func-
tions. These are called „Phone keys“. Alternatively, the OpenScape Desk Phone CP410
can have up to four key modules KM410 providing 16 FPKs each, or up to four KM710
providing 12 FPKs each.
l The OpenScape Desk Phone CP210 phone provides four free programmable keys (FPKs).
This is called „Phone keys“.
l The OpenScape Desk Phone CP110 phone provides three free programmable keys
(FPKs). These are called „Phone keys“.

Enabling "Long Press" for FPKs


Note The long press feature is enhanced for the CP210.

Prerequisites

At the phone, the configuration menu for a specific programmable key is called by a long press
on the related key. However, the other methods for key programming remain enabled.

New software images, hold music, picture clips for phone book entries, LDAP templates, com-
pany logos, screen Saver images, and ring tones can be uploaded to the phone via DLS (Deploy-
ment Service) or WBM (Web Based Management).

Note For all user data, which includes files as well as phone book content, the following
amounts of storage place are available:

l OpenScape Desk Phone CP710:100MB

Linux file name issues


In Linux based file systems, the null character and the path separator "/" are prohibited. Other
characters may have an adverse effect during the creation or deletion of the particular file in the
Linux operating system.

Prevent invalid file names

Saving a file with an invalid file name on the phone could lead to operational or security issues.
To protect against this the phone will ensure that the file name for the file to be saved does not
contain non-allowed characters. The solution is to replace invalid characters in the names of
files to be downloaded onto the phone with a dummy character.
102 Administration

The set of allowed characters are:

l 0 to 9
l a to z
l A to Z
l "-" (hyphen)
l "_" (underscore)

A space character is explicitly not allowed in a Linux file name. Any non-allowed characters are
replaced with an "_" (underscore) character. The file name must not start with a "-" (hyphen) char-
acter.

This should cover any download mechanism:

l WBM download of user files (such as ringers)


l WBM download of binds
l FTP or HTTPS download of files to the phone

When a file is downloaded to the phone, sanity checks are carried out to ensure there are no
operational or security impacts on the phone.

WBM checks the file name and file extension entered in any FTP / HTTPS file transfer panel only
contains valid characters and that the file extensions (file type) are valid.

l If a file path character or file extension is detected in the file name then an error is dis-
played and the file transfer is not allowed.

FTP / HTTPS server


There are no specific requirements regarding the FTP server for transferring files to the
OpenScape Desk Phone. Any FTP server providing standard functionality will do.

Common FTP / HTTPS settings (defaults)


For each one of the various file types, e.g. phone application, or logos, specific FTP / HTTPS
access data can be defined. If some or all file types have the parameters “Download method”,
“FTP Server”, “FTP Server port”, “FTP Account”, “FTP Username”, “FTP path”, and “HTTPS base
URL” in common, they can be specified here. These settings is used for a specific file type if its
Use defaults parameter is set to "Yes".

Note If “Use defaults” is activated for a specific file type, any specific settings for this
file type are overridden by the defaults.

Additional log messages are issued for the following phone application download conditions:

l Update has been allowed due to override flag being set


l Whole part number is not recognized
Administration 103

l Block 4 of part number is not recognized


l Downloaded software does not have a hardware level included

Phone application
The firmware for the phone can be updated by downloading a new software file to the phone.

If an incorrect software image is being attempted to be loaded onto the phone, the phone will
reject the request and return to normal operation without reboot. As part of this security mech-
anism, new software binds are identified by a "Supported Hardware Level" information built into
the header.

Prerequisite

The phone knows its own hardware level (from the part number and / or by a dynamical check of
its hardware level).

When a new software bind is downloaded to the phone, the following verification is performed:

l If new software bind has hardware level header included (in the bind header): Hardware
level of new bind is compared with phone’s hardware level.
n If compatible (or if Override is set): Proceed with update
n If NOT compatible: Abandon update and return to original application
l If new software bind does NOT have hardware level header included (in the bind header):
Software version of new bind is compared with minimum known supported SW level.
n If compatible (or if Override is set): Proceed with update
n If NOT compatible: Abandon update and return to original application

Note Do not disconnect the phone from the LAN or power unit during software update.
An active update process is indicated by blinking LEDs and / or in the display.

Note This feature is available for OpenScape Desk Phones CP410 and CP710.

If applicable, picture clips should be deployed using the Deployment Service (DLS). Alternatively,
the download can be triggered from the web interface or from the local phone menu (see "FTP /
HTTPS access data" à page 108).

Upload picture clips via LDAP


The LDAP template identifies if avatars are available for LDAP entries and how they are
accessed by the phone.

The LDAP directory must contain avatar pictures in JPEG / JIFF format (plain or base 64
encoded) or a URL that points to a web-server that can provide a picture for the contact.

Example: Plain JPEG picture attributes are "jpegPhoto" or "thumbnailPhoto". URL attribute can be
"photoURL".

For best display the square format is recommended.

Maximum picture size is 100 kB. The phone shows an avatar in two sizes:
110 Administration

l 32x32 px for conversation list and contact details (header)


l 64x64 px for conversation and call screens

If another size provided, the phone will automatically resize the picture to needed dimensions.

Until a JPEG image is available a default avatar is used for the LDAP contact.

The LDAP must be configured and a suitable LDAP template must be available on the phone.
The LDAP template must support a 13th attribute to allow access to a contact's picture (see
"Create an LDAP template" à page 164).

If the configured address of the web server (Avatar server) is not empty, the attribute content is
treated as the variable part of the URL to access the picture from a WEB server — see Con-
figuration via DLS and WBM in this chapter. The phone then constructs a full path to the picture
file on the web server, i.e. adds the attribute value to the Avatar server field value. The photoURL
atribute may be a direct URL which ends up with "filename.jpg". The address can include a HTTP
address or a HTTPS address. HTTPS is assumed by default.

If configured address of the web server (Avatar server) is empty, the attribute value is treated as
a LDAP DN and the LDAP server is asked for the content of the attribute. The content must be
plain JPEG or base64 encoded.

Example

Avatar server value is „https://my.image.server.com/internal“ . The photoURL atribute is „employ-


ee1.jpg“. Phone will sent http request for https://my.image.server.com/internal/employee1.jpg.

If the picture cannot be displayed (wrong format, download error, etc.) then a default avatar con-
tinues to be shown.

Send request via HTTP / HTTPS


With this function, the phone can send a specific HTTP or HTTPS request to a server. The func-
tion is available at any time, irrespective of registration and call state. Possible uses are HTTP-
controlled features on the system, or functions on a web server that can only be triggered by
HTTP / HTTPS request, e.g. login or logout for flexible working hours.

l The protocol parameter defines whether HTTP or HTTPS is used for sending the URL to
the server.
l The web server address is the IP address or DNS name of the remote server to which the
URL is sent.
l The port is the target port at the server to which the URL is sent.
l The path is the server-side path to the desired function, i.e. the part of the URL that fol-
lows the IP address or DNS name (example: web page/checkin.html).
Administration 123

l In the parameters field, one or more key/value pairs in the format "key=value" can be
added to the request, separated by an ampersand (&).

Example

phonenumber=3338&action=huntGroupLogon

The question mark is automatically added between the path and the parameters. If a question
mark has been entered at the start of the parameters, it is stripped off automatically.

The method parameter determines the HTTP method used, which can be either GET or POST. If
GET is selected, the additional parameters and the user id and password (web server user ID and
web server password) are part of the URL. If POST is selected, these data form the body of the
message.

If the web server requires user authentication, the parameters ”Web server user ID” and “Web
server password” can be used. If not null, the values are appended between the server­side path
(Path) and the additional parameters (Parameter).

Settings of the corporate directory

LDAP
The Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) enables access to a directory server via an
LDAP client. Various personal information is stored there, e.g. the name, organization, and con-
tact data of persons working in an organization. When the LDAP client has found a person’s
data, e. g. by looking up the surname, the user can call this person directly using the displayed
number.

On an OpenScape Desk Phone CP410 or CP710, the use of the LDAP directory is integrated into
the conversations concept.

Example

If a call cannot be mapped to a contact on the phone, the phone can be configured to look up the
call contact details from the LDAP directory. In addition, a search for a contact will cover both
contacts on the phone and the LDAP directory. The LDAP template maps the LDAP fields to
those of the contacts on the phone.

On an OpenScape Desk Phone CP110 or CP210, the LDAP directory can be accessed using the
entry Directories > Corporate directory.

The entry is displayed only when a LDAP server is configured.

Note The OpenScape Desk Phone CP phones support LDAPv3.

For connecting the phone LDAP client to an LDAP server, the required access data must be con-
figured. The parameter “Server” address specifies the IP address of the LDAP server. The para-
meter “Transport” defines whether the phone must continue to use an unencrypted TCP
connection to the LDAP server, or to use an encrypted TLS connection to a separate LDAPS port
on the LDAP server, or to use an encrypted TLS connection to a separate LDAPS port on the
LDAP server. Depending on the setting of “Transport” the secure port (for TLS) or the server port
(for TCP) are defined. If the authentication is not set to "Anonymous", the user must authenticate
himself with the server by providing a user name and a corresponding password. The user name
and password are defined by the administrator. The user name is the string in the LDAP bind
request, e. g. "C=GB,O=SIEMENS COMM,OU=COM,L=NTH,CN=BAYLIS MICHAEL". The internal
structure will depend on the specific corporate directory.

For a guide on setting up LDAP on an OpenScape Desk Phone, refer to "How to set up the “Cor-
porate directory” (LDAP)" à page 164.
126 Administration

On an OpenScape Desk Phone CP110 or CP210, an explicit search field for LDAP requests is sup-
ported. The search string is submitted to the LDAP server as soon as OK is pressed or when the
search trigger timeout expires.

On an OpenScape Desk Phone CP410 or CP710, the search of the LDAP directory is integrated in
the conversations search function. The LDAP template allows for a 'nickname' field which allows
a search of any text in the field.

Administration via WBM

1. Open Local functions > Directory Settings.

l LDAP Server address: IP address or host name of the LDAP server


l Transport: defines transport mode, whether LDAP interface uses TCP and is unencrypted,
or uses TLS and is encrypted
n Value range: "TCP", "TLS"
n Default: "TCP"
l Secure Port: defines the port of the appropriate TLS interface on LDAP server when Trans-
port is set to TLS
n Default: "636"
l LDAP Server port: port on which the LDAP server is listening for requests, when Transport
is set to TCP
n Default: 389
l Authentication: authentication method used for connecting to the LDAP server
n Value range: "Anonymous", "Simple"
n Default: "Anonymous"
l User name: user name used for authentication with the LDAP server in the LDAP bind
request
l Password: password used for authentication with the LDAP server
l Contact details update: The update source for call party names can be set as one or more
of the following: Directory, Signaling or Local.
l Avatar server: HTTP or HTTPS address, where the pictures are located. The complete
HTTP or HTTPS address is built from "Avatar server" + "Avatar". "Avatar" is the attribute
name from the LDAP template field "Avatar". The specified LDAP attribute must contain
Administration 127

the file name of the picture contained in the URL specified in "Avatar Server".
Example: "Avatar Server" = "https://mypicture.server/picturepath" ("Avatar" = pic-
turename).
When the phone does an LDAP lookup for user A, the field “Picturename” returns pic-
turename = UserA.jpg. The phone will look for the picture at: https://myp-
icture.server/picturepath/UserA.jpg.

Note This option is only available for the OpenScape Desk Phone CP410 and CP710
phones. Not applicable for Broadsoft.

It is possible to update the source used to obtain call party names from one place.

l Existing contact names are updated for new calls (if one or more sources are specified
and matched)
l Existing contact names are not updated (if the local source is used, i.e. no sources set)

Source of the contact details


When an update source has been specified, the phone will try to match the call party number
signaled for a call to an entry in the update source(s). If more than one source is specified then
they is used in the following order:

l LDAP
l Signalling
128 Administration

Picture via LDAP


Note This option is only available for the OpenScape Desk Phone CP410 and CP710
phones.

To display centrally stored contact data the OpenScape Desk Phone CP410 / CP710 will request
and retrieve the data from a server.

The OpenScape Desk Phone CP410 / CP710 requests the look-up for all numbers for which the
local phone book does not have a picture. In case the phone book contains names for the num-
ber but without picture the name and picture from the directory server are displayed. If there is
no entry for the number in the directory server the name from the local phone book is displayed,
so the directory server data overrides the local phone book.

Currently two different mechanisms for storage of the picture shall be supported, both requiring
a directory server for central storage:
Administration 129

l Direct retrieval of pictures stored within the LDAP directory (preferred mechanism)
l Indirect (two step) retrieval in case the directory server contains a reference (URL) to the
picture instead. In this case the picture is retrieved from another server via HTTP using
the URL.

Note The phones will only accept pictures encoded in jpg and max. 50 kB size.

Canonical dial settings


For contact data retrieval from the directory server, upon arrival of a call, the remote telephone
number is converted according to the canonical dial settings (see also "Canonical dialing set-
tings" à page 161). The format of the resulting number should match the format the numbers
are stored in the directory server. It is recommended to convert the numbers to fully qualified
format, i.e. adding country and area code to the subscriber number. This way it is ensured that
the number used for look-up is unique.

Codec preferences
If “Silence suppression” is activated, the transmission of data packets is suppressed on no con-
versation, that is, if the user is silent.

The OpenScape Desk Phone CP phone provides the codecs

l G.722
l G.711
l G.729

When a connection is established between two endpoints, the phones negotiate the codec to be
used. The result of the negotiation is based on the general availability and ranking assigned to
each codec. The administrator can allow or disallow a codec as well as assign a ranking number
to it.

The Packet size, i. e. length in milliseconds, of the RTP packets for speech data, can be set to
10 ms, 20 ms, 30 ms, 40 ms, 60 ms or to automatic detection.

HPT interface (for service staff)


For special diagnosis and maintenance tasks, the service staff may employ the HPT tool, which
is able to control and observe OpenScape Desk Phone CP110 / CP210 / CP410 phones
remotely.

There are 2 types of HPT sessions, control session and observation session.

l A control session allows for activating phone functions remotely. When a control session
is established, the following changes will occur:
n The display shows a message indicating that remote service is active.
n Handset, microphone, speaker, headset, and microphone are disabled.
l An observation session allows for supervising events on the phone, like, for instance,
pressing a key, incoming calls or navigating in the menus. Before an observation session
is started, the user is prompted for allowing the observation. During an observation ses-
sion, the phone operates normally, including loudspeaker, microphone and ringer. Thus,
the local user can demonstrate an error towards the service staff that is connected via
HPT.

The session data is written to a log file on the phone. It can be downloaded from the Diagnostics
> Fault trace configuration menu (see "Fault trace configuration" à page 142).

Fault trace configuration


Error tracing and logging can be configured separately for all components, i. e. the services and
applications running on the OpenScape Desk Phone CP. The resulting files can be viewed in the
WBM web pages over the download links.

Note The absolute maximum file size is 6,290,000 bytes. However, on OpenScape Desk
Phone CP phones, a maximum size not greater than 1,000,000 bytes is recom-
mended due to the amount of available memory.

Administration via WBM

1. Open Diagnostics > Fault trace configuration.

l The “File size (bytes)” parameter sets the maximum file size. When it is reached, the data
is saved as old file, and a new file is generated. From then on, the trace data is written to
Administration 143

the new file. When the maximum file size is reached again, the data is saved as old file
once more, thereby overwriting the previous old file. The default value is “1048576”.
l The “Trace timeout (minutes)” determines when to stop tracing. When the timeout is
reached, the trace settings for all components are set to OFF, but ERROR and STATUS
messages are still written to the trace file infinitely. When the trace file has reached its
maximum size, the data is saved, and a new file is created (for more information, see File
size (bytes) above). If the value is 0, the trace data is written without time limit.
l If “Automatic clear before start” is enabled, the existing trace file is deleted on clicking
Submit, and a new, empty trace file is generated. By default, it is unchecked.

Log files

You can read the log files by clicking on the appropriate hyperlinks (the hyperlinks work only if
the file in question has been created). The following logs can be viewed:

l Download trace file: The trace data according to the settings specified for the services.
l Download old trace file: The trace file is stored in permanent memory. When the file has
reached its size limit, it is saved as old trace file, and the current exception file is emptied
for future messages. The old trace file can be viewed here.
l Download saved trace file: Normally, the trace file is saved only in the phone RAM. When
the phone restarts in a controlled manner, the trace file is saved in permanent memory.
l Download syslog file: Messages from the phone’s operating system, including error and
exception messages.
l Download old syslog file: Old messages from the phone’s operating system.

stream received. A silence suppression activation object is defined as a period of silence
when no encoded voice signals were transmitted by the sender.
l Count of good packets: Total amount of good packets.
l Maximum jitter: Maximum jitter (in ms) found during the report interval.
l Maximum inter-arrival jitter: Maximum of the interarrival jitter values (in ms). The interar-
rival jitter is the smoothed absolute value of the jitter measurements. It is calculated con-
tinuously. For details about the calulation, see RFC 3550.

contents.
l Periods of lost packets: Number of observation intervals in which the threshold for lost
packets was exceeded.
Administration 155

l Consecutive packet loss (CPL): List of sequences consecutive packets that were all lost,
grouped according to the amount of packets per sequence. The first number in the list
counts single lost packets, the second number counts sequences of two lost packets, and
so on. The last number counts sequences of more than 10 lost packets.
l Periods of consecutive lost packets: Number of observation intervals in which the
threshold for consecutive lost packets was exceeded.

values are reset to 0 after an interval without packet loss.
l Periods of consecutive good packets: Number of intervals in which the count of lost pack-
ets went below the threshold.
l Count of jitter buffer overruns: Number of packets rejected because the jitter buffer was
full.
l Count of jitter buffer under-runs: Increased by one whenever the decoder requests new
information on decoding and finds an empty jitter buffer.
l Codec change on the fly: The value is 1, if there has been a codec or SSRC change during
the observation period, and 0, if there has been no change.
l Periods with at least one threshold exceeded: Number of observation intervals with at
least one threshold exceedance. If there is no data, the value is 255. The threshold values
included are:
n maximum jitter;
n lost packets;
n consecutive lost packets;

Memory status information


The processes currently running on the phone operating system as well as their CPU and
memory usage can be monitored here. 100 processes are monitored on the web page. For fur-
ther information, refer to the manual of the "top" command for Unix / Linux systems, or to related
documentation.

The amount of free memory is checked on a regular basis in order to prevent problems caused
by low memory. This check determines whether a recovery is necessary.
Administration 157

Administration via WBM

1. Open Diagnostics > Miscellaneous > Memory information.

l When “Disable reboot” is checked, no reboot will take place when a memory problem has
been found. However, recovery requires a reboot. The recovery process is triggered when
the available main memory (RAM) falls below a given threshold value. As memory con-
sumption is assumed to be higher during working hours, two thresholds are configurable.
l The High Threshold (MBs) parameter defines the threshold for off-time:
n For OpenScape Desk Phone CP110/210, the default value is 10 MB.
n For OpenScape Desk Phone CP410/710, it is 30 MB.
l With Low Threshold (MBs), the threshold for off-time is defined:
n For OpenScape Desk Phone CP110/210, the default value is 8 MB.
n For OpenScape Desk Phone CP410/710, it is 20 MB.

l The beginning and end of the working hours are defined in 24 hours format with Working
Hour Start (Default: 5) and Working Hour End (Default: 24).

When memory shortage has occurred, information about the incident is written to a log file
which can be viewed via the “Download memory info” file link.

If there has been a previous case of memory shortage, the corresponding log file can be viewed
via “Download memory info” file.

Core dump

Administration via WBM

1. Open Diagnostics > Miscellaneous > Core Dump.

l If “Enable core dump” is enabled, a core dump is initiated in case of a severe error. The
core dump is saved to a file. By default, this function is active.
l If “Delete core dump” is activated, the current core dump file is deleted when clicking Sub-
mit.
n By default, this feature is not enabled.
l If one or more core dump file exist, hyperlinks for downloading are created automatically.

Remote tracing — syslog


All trace messages created by the components of the phone software can be sent to a remote
server using the syslog protocol. This is helpful especially for long-term observations with a
greater number of phones.

Administration via WBM

1. Open Diagnostics > Remote trace.

l To enable remote tracing, “Remote trace status” must be enabled. Furthermore, the IP
address of the server receiving the syslog messages must be entered as remote server,
and the corresponding server port must be given in remote port.
l With version V2, the user notification parameter controls whether the user is notified
about the remote tracing or not. If “Use notification” is enabled, a blinking icon will inform
the user when remote tracing is active, i.e. when “Remote trace status” is enabled.

How to set up the “Corporate directory” (LDAP)


The “Corporate directory” function is based on an LDAP client that can be connected to the com-
pany’s LDAP service. A variety of LDAP servers can be used, for instance Microsoft Active Dir-
ectory, OpenLDAP, or Apache Directory Server.

Prerequisites
l An LDAP server is present and accessible to the phone’s network. The standard server
port for LDAP is 389, the standard transport for LDAP is TCP.
l Query access to the LDAP server must be provided. Unless anonymous access is used, a
user name and password must be provided. It might be feasible to use a single login and
password for all OpenScape Desk Phone CP phones.

Create an LDAP template


The task of an LDAP template is to map the phone’s contact fields to LDAP attributes that can
be delivered by the server. In the LDAP template, the fields are represented by hard-coded
names: ATTRIB01, ATTRIB02, and so on. These field names are assigned to LDAP attributes,
as appropriate.

The following examples show the relations between GUI field names, the attribute labels used in
the template, and exemplary mappings to LDAP attributes.

Note In an LDAP template for OpenScape Desk Phone CP, the entries must be sorted
according to the sequential number of the template labels, as shown in the
example underneath.
Examples and how-tos 165

Administration via WBM

1. Open Local functions > LDAP template.

2. Enter the field names and specify the usage type “read-only”).

l
"Nickname" does not correspond to a contact field but instead relates to a special
attribute that may be defined for LDAP entries. The attribute represents a free
format field which may be searched for sub-strings. It is only used for search
actions by the phone, not number lookups. If the Nickname attribute is defined in
the LDAP template, a phone search action will look for the search string as a sub-
string in this field and will ignore the other field attributes.

LLDP-Med example
The following example illustrates the mode of operation of LLDP-MED. To evoke a reaction from
LLDP-MED, the LAN switch has been set to auto-negotiation, whereas the phone’s LAN port is
set to 100 Mbit/s, hence a fixed value (see "LAN port settings" à page 49). This configuration
error is discovered by LLDP-MED. The following screenshots from the phone local menu show
the error messages.

The WBM provides a list of the LLDP-MED TLV messages rather than the more limited LLDP-
MED operation menu in local settings. The TLV list is comprehensive whereas the local settings
indicate problems with the TLVs.

Note Note the status of MAC_Phy config.

When MAC_Phy config is selected, the details are displayed.


Examples and how-tos 171

1. Log in as administrator on the local phone’s admin menu.


2. In the Admin menu, open Network > LLDP-MED Operation.
3. Press OK.
4. In the LLDP-MED operation submenu, navigate to MAC_Phy config.
5. Note the status displayed.
6. Select the MAC_Phy config submenu by pressing OK.
7. Navigate to the parameters displayed by using the navigation keys. The following status
is displayed for the MAC_Phy config parameters:
l AutoSet enabled = Incompatible
l MAU = Incompatible

When configuring a SNTP server via DHCP, it is crucial to consider the IP address or hostname of the server and the required time zone offset. The SNTP IP address must be specified using DHCP option #42, while the time zone offset is configured with option #2. Correct configuration ensures synchronized time across network devices .

Canonical dialing settings play a critical role in supporting international communication by ensuring numbers are parsed and formatted according to international standards. This involves adding necessary country and area codes, which standardizes call setup and enhances interoperability across diverse telecommunication networks .

When DHCP lease reuse is activated, the phone maintains its DHCP-assigned IP address despite the lease expiration, which enhances network stability during DHCP server outages. This is achieved by the phone periodically sending ARP requests to prevent address conflicts and discovery messages to obtain a new lease .

Storing contacts and pictures using LDAP for phones involves configuring the LDAP server to interface with the phone for accessing and updating contact details securely and efficiently. LDAP allows phones to access a directory server for retrieving contact information and pictures either directly from LDAP attributes like "jpegPhoto" or indirectly via URLs stored in "photoURL" attributes . This setup supports retrieval and display of contact avatars in specified formats (32x32 px and 64x64 px) and can update contact information dynamically based on LDAP entries . Security is maintained through options like encrypted TLS connections and authentication requirements, while the configuration of LDAP templates is necessary to map server attributes to phone contact fields for seamless integration .

The LLDP-MED protocol offers several advantages for VLAN discovery over DHCP-based methods. Firstly, LLDP-MED provides automatic VLAN configuration through the network switch, using LLDP-MED TLV elements to convey VLAN IDs directly to devices, reducing manual provisioning and configuration errors . Unlike DHCP, which requires the configuration of vendor-specific options, LLDP-MED directly communicates VLAN information as part of its network advertisement capabilities, making the process simpler and less error-prone . It also allows for the consistent exchange of other network policies and Quality of Service (QoS) parameters, supporting more integrated network management . Additionally, LLDP-MED can operate over existing network infrastructure without the need for DHCP server configurations, providing a more flexible and dynamic approach to VLAN management .

Configuring vendor-specific settings via DHCP is advantageous because it allows for full Plug & Play functionality while ensuring security and authenticity of network components like DLS servers. DHCP automatically provides essential configuration data to devices during start-up, reducing manual configuration errors and ensuring network settings such as IP addresses, VLAN IDs, and necessary security protocols are consistently applied across devices . Furthermore, using DHCP for network setup can simplify the management of changes across multiple devices by centralizing configuration tasks on a server, rather than requiring individual device configuration .

Converting phone numbers to a fully qualified E.164 format in LDAP directories ensures that the numbers are globally unique and consistent, providing a standardized dialing format that can be used across different geographic locations and networks. This standardization simplifies call routing and recognition of numbers, especially in systems that integrate with various telecommunications networks. Additionally, using E.164 format allows the LDAP directory to store numbers in a consistent format that matches international dialing requirements, facilitating easier integration and interoperability with external systems and ensuring accurate lookup and retrieval of contact information .

The canonical dial look-up feature ensures that incoming call numbers are accurately matched to directory entries by converting them into a fully qualified format. This process includes adding country and area codes to the subscriber number, making sure that each number is unique and can be reliably looked up in the directory server . This standardized format facilitates the recognition of incoming calls and the correct display of contact details sourced from centralized directories like LDAP, allowing proper handling of incoming calls without confusion caused by different number formats . Additionally, this capability is crucial for phones to consistently identify callers from various local and international networks, by accurately analyzing and matching incoming numbers against predefined patterns ."}

The Deployment Service (DLS) server enhances network security for phones by enforcing that connections from the phone to the DLS server are outbound only, thereby preventing unauthorized inbound connections from reaching the phone. Furthermore, the DLS server can configure a "Contact-Me" proxy (DCMP) that allows the phone to periodically check for updates without direct inbound requests from the server, adding another layer of security by leveraging controlled outbound communication . Additionally, mutual authentication can be configured which ensures that both the DLS server and the phone exchange credentials to verify each other's identity before securing communication, thereby preventing man-in-the-middle attacks . A security PIN can also be utilized for decrypting data during initial communication set-up, ensuring secure data exchange during the bootstrap phase .

If a phone is configured to an incorrect VLAN, it may not be able to connect to the network . Additionally, if the phone is set in static IP mode within an incorrect VLAN, it may prevent server connections . This misconfiguration can lead to improper network routing and a failure in establishing essential communications, impacting the phone's operational capabilities .
