Introduction

Sets that support both protocols, for example, the 4610SW, do not support each protocol simultaneously. Instead, a given telephone must be loaded with software that supports one protocol or the other.

Telephones with H.323 software work only with Avaya Communication Manager call servers. Telephones with SIP software are supported only in Avaya server environments.

Note:

Unless otherwise indicated, references in this document to the DEFINITY® servers also refer to MultiVantage™ media servers.

Intended Audience

This document is intended for personnel who install the 4600 Series IP Telephones.

! CAUTION:

Avaya does not support many of the products mentioned in this document. Take care to ensure that there is adequate technical support available for the servers involved, including, but not necessarily limited to, TFTP, DHCP, and SIP Registration servers. If the TFTP, DHCP, or other servers are not functioning correctly, the IP telephones might not be able to operate correctly.
