Indication Tone

 

and trusted) in Unified CM, it can be given a

 

 

 

“protected” status. After that if desired, the

 

 

 

protected phone can be configured to play an

 

 

 

indication tone at the beginning of a call:

 

 

 

Protected Device—To change the status of a

 

 

 

secure phone to protected, check the

 

 

 

“Protected Device” check box in Cisco

 

 

 

Unified Communications Manager

 

 

 

Administration > Device > Phone > Phone

 

 

 

Configuration.

 

 

 

Play Secure Indication Tone—To enable the

 

 

 

protected phone to play a secure or nonsecure

 

 

 

indication tone, set the “Play Secure

 

 

 

Indication Tone” to True. (The default is

 

 

 

False.) You set this option in Cisco Unified

 

 

 

Communications Manager Administration >

 

 

 

System > Service Parameters. Select the server

 

 

 

and then the Unified CM service. In the

 

 

 

Service Parameter Configuration window,

 

 

 

select the option in the Feature - Secure Tone

 

 

 

area. (The default is False.)

 

 

 

Only protected phones hear these secure or

 

 

 

nonsecure indication tones. (Nonprotected phones

 

 

 

never hear tones.) If the overall call status changes

 

 

 

during the call, the indication tone

 

 

 

changes accordingly. At that time, the protected

 

 

 

phone plays the appropriate tone.

 

 

 

A protected phone plays a tone or not under these

 

 

 

circumstances:

 

 

 

When the option to play the tone is enabled

 

 

 

Play Secure Indication Tone option is enabled

 

 

 

(True):

 

 

 

W1hen end-to-end secure media is

 

 

 

established and the call status is secure,

 

 

 

the phone plays the secure indication tone

 

 

 

(three long beeps with pauses).

 

 

 

When end-to-end nonsecure media is

 

 

 

established and the call status is

 

 

 

nonsecure, the phone plays the nonsecure

 

 

 

indication tone (six short beeps with brief

 

 

 

pauses).

 

 

 

If the Play Secure Indication Tone option is

 

 

 

disabled, no tone is played.
