The system will try to set up calls using encryption.

Point to point calls: If the far end system supports encryption (AES or DES), the call will be encrypted. If not, the call will proceed without encryption.

MultiSite calls*: In order to have encrypted MultiSite calls, all sites must support encryption. The padlock symbol will indicate encryption mode (AES or DES). If there is a mix of AES and DES encryption, only the symbol for DES encryption (single padlock) will be displayed. The 'closed padlock'will only be displayed on each site when all links in the MultiSite conference are encrypted.

If the far end supports‘ encryption,’ the systems will initiate encryption after the call is

connected (an ‘ open padlock symbol’ will be displayed). When encryption has been established, a closed padlock symbol will be displayed.

On	The system will only send and receive encrypted data. The call will not be
	established if not all participants support encryption.
Off	The system will not send or receive encrypted data.

Technical encryption information like encryption algorithm and encryption check code can be found in the Call Status menu.

* Only available on systems with MultiSite option supported and installed.
