Using Device tabs to configure the security gateway

●The IP address. This IP address must be within the same subnet as the DHCP server. Avaya recommends that you use an IP address for the device that falls into the DHCP subnet, but not in the DHCP range.

4.Click Add, and then click OK.

To add an IP telephony device to the security gateway:

1.Click IP Telephony. The IP Telephony Settings dialog is displayed.

2.Enter the following information

●TFTP File Path Name. The TFTP file path name is used when the TFTP file path is other than the default path.

●Definity CLAN Port. The port number for the Definity server. The default port is 1719. The port range is 1 to 65535.

●Option 66. The standard DHCP option for TFTP server.

●IP Telephony Domain. This is the domain name that the IP telephone device is assigned.

! Important:

When symbolic host names are included in the TFTP server or CLAN lists, the IP telephone will append the IP Telephony Domain name (if entered) to the list entry in order to create a fully qualified domain name (FQDN). You can, however, enter host names using the FQDN form of <myhost>@<mydomain>.<toplevel domain>, in which case you should leave the IP Telephone Domain name field empty.

Also, be aware that the current version of IP telephone firmware will truncate the TFTP and CLAN lists to a maximum of 255 characters each. Thus, when using the FQDN form of host name entries, it would be possible to exceed that limitation very quickly.

●TFTP Server. This is the server on which the latest version of the IP telephone firmware is maintained for upgrade purposes. A maximum of five TFTP servers with IP addresses or symbolic host names can be configured on security gateways running VPNos 4.6 and higher.

●Definity CLAN List. The IP address of the Definity Clan server. A maximum of 20 CLAN IP addresses or symbolic host names can be configured on security gateways running VPNos 4.6 and higher.

3.Click OK, and then click Save.

Note:

When you configure an IP telephone, secure tunnels are created for TFTP and Definity Clan. However, if only VPN users are connected, the secure tunnels are created on demand. That is, the secure tunnels are created only when traffic exists on the associated tunnel.
