Cisco ASA 5500 Series Configuration Guide using the CLI
Chapter48 Configuring the Cisco Phone Proxy
Configuring the Phone Proxy
Prerequisites
If you are using domain names for your Cisco UCM and TFTP server, you must configure DNS lookup
on the ASA. Add an entry for each of the outside interfaces on the ASA into your DNS server, if such
entries are not already present. Each ASA outside IP address should have a DNS entry associated with
it for lookups. These DNS entries must also be enabled for Reverse Lookup.
Enable DNS lookups on your ASA with the dns domain-lookup interface_name command (where the
interface_name specifies the interface that has a route to your DNS server). Additionally, define your
DNS server IP address on the ASA; for example: dns name-server 10.2.3.4 (IP address of your DNS
server).
Note You can enter the dns domain-lookup command multiple times to enable DNS lookup on
multiple interfaces. If you enter multiple commands, the ASA tries each interface in the order it
appears in the configuration until it receives a response.
See the command reference for information about the dns domain-lookup command.
What to Do Next
Once you have configured the CTL file for the phone proxy, create the TLS proxy instance. See Creating
the TLS Proxy Instance for a Non-secure Cisco UCM Cluster, page 48-20 to add the TLS proxy when
configuring the phone proxy in a non-secure mode or see Creating the TLS Proxy for a Mixed-mode
Cisco UCM Cluster, page48-21 if the phone proxy is running in a mixed-mode cluster.
Command Purpose
Step1 hostname(config)# ctl-file ctl_name
Example:
ctl-file myctl
Creates the CTL file instance.
Step2 hostname(config-ctl-file)# record-entry tftp
trustpoint trustpoint_name address TFTP_IP_address
Example:
record-entry cucm-tftp trustpoint cucm_tftp_server
address 10.10.0.26
Creates the record entry for the TFTP server.
Note Use the global or mapped IP address of the
TFTP server or Cisco UCM if NAT is
configured.
Step3 hostname(config-ctl-file)# record-entry cucm
trustpoint trustpoint_name address IP_address
Example:
record-entry cucm trustpoint cucm_server address
10.10.0.26
Creates the record entry for the each Cisco UCM
(primary and secondary).
Note Use the global or mapped IP address of the
Cisco UCM.
Step4 hostname(config-ctl-file)# record-entry capf
trustpoint trust_point address
Example:
record-entry capf trustpoint capf address 10.10.0.26
Creates the record entry for CAPF.
Note You only enter this command when LSC
provisioning is required or you have LSC
enabled IP phones.
Step5 hostname(config-ctl-file)# no shutdown Creates the CTL file.
When the file is created, it creates an internal
trustpoint used by the phone proxy to sign the TFTP
files. The trustpoint is named
_internal_PP_ctl-instance_filename.
Step6 hostname(config)# copy running-configuration
startup-configuration
Saves the certificate configuration to Flash memory.
