The security features protect against several threats, including threats to the identity of the phone and to data. These features establish and maintain authenticated communication streams between the phone and the Cisco Unified Communications Manager server, and digitally sign files before they are delivered.

For more information about the security features, see the “Understanding Security Features for Cisco Unified IP Phones” section on page 1-10. Also, refer to Cisco Unified Communications Manager Security Guide.

•The CTL file or ITL 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.
