Task Flow for Configuring the Phone Proxy in a Non-secure Cisco UCM Cluster
Follow these tasks to configure the phone proxy in a Non-secure Cisco UCM Cluster:
Step1 Create trustpoints and generate certificates for each entity in the network (Cisco UCM, Cisco UCM and
TFTP, TFTP server, CAPF) that the IP phone must trust. The certificates are used in creating the CTL
file. See Creating Trustpoints and Generating Certificates, page48-17.
Note Before you create the trustpoints and generate certificates, you must have imported the required
certificates, which are stored on the Cisco UCM. See Certificates from the Cisco UCM,
page 48-7 and Importing Certificates from the Cisco UCM, page48-15
Step2 Create the CTL file for the phone proxy. See Creating the CTL File, page48-18.
Step3 Create the TLS proxy instance. See Creating the TLS Proxy Instance for a Non-secure Cisco UCM
Cluster, page 48-20.
Step4 Create the media termination instance for the phone proxy. See Creating the Media Termination
Instance, page 48-22.
Step5 Create the phone proxy instance. See Creating the Phone Proxy Instance, page 48-23.
Step6 Enable the phone proxy y with SIP and Skinny inspection. See Enabling the Phone Proxy with SIP and
Skinny Inspection, page48-25.
Importing Certificates from the Cisco UCM
For the TLS proxy used by the phone proxy to complete the TLS handshake successfully, it needs to
verify the certificates from the IP phone (and the Cisco UCM if doing TLS with Cisco UCM). To validate
the IP phone certificate, we need the CA Manufacturer certificate which is stored on the Cisco UCM.
Follow these steps to import the CA Manufacturer certificate to the ASA.
Step1 Go to the Cisco UCM Operating System Administration web page.
Step2 Choose Security > Certificate Management.
Note Earlier versions of Cisco UCM have a different UI and way to locate the certificates. For
example, in Cisco UCM version 4.x, certificates are located in the directory C:\Program
Files\Cisco\Certificates. See your Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CallManager)
documentation for information about locating certificates.
