3.3.2 802.1x
The IP phone currently supports two 802.1x authentication methods: Extensible Authentication
Protocol-Message Digest Algorithm 5 (EAP-MD5) and Extensible Authentication ProtocolTransport Layer Security (EAP-TLS).
802.1x is a port-based network access control protocol defined by IEEE. This protocol
implements access authentication and control for devices attempting to connect to an enterprise's
internal network. Devices (for example, IP phones) are granted access to internal network
resources only after being authenticated.
NOTE

To ensure network access security, it is recommended that you enable the 802.1x function. If EAP-MD5 is used,
obtain the 802.1x user name and password from the network administrator beforehand.

EAP-MD5 Authentication Process

Figure 3-1 EAP-MD5 Authentication Process

The authentication steps are as follows:


Step 1 The IP phone initiates an 802.1x authentication request to the switch.
Step 2 The switch asks the IP phone to provide its user name.
Step 3 The IP phone sends its user name to the switch.
Step 4 The switch forwards the user name to the RADIUS sever.
Step 5 After identity authentication, the RADIUS server sends an EAP-MD5 authentication request to
the switch.
Step 6 The switch forwards the EAP-MD5 authentication request to the IP phone.
Step 7 The IP phone sends MD5 digest to the switch and then to the RADIUS server.
Step 8 If authentication is successful, the switch opens all ports and the IP phone can then access
network resources.
Step 9 If authentication fails, an authentication failure message is displayed on the IP phone, and the
IP phone cannot access network resources.

Step 6 The switch forwards the EAP-TLS authentication request to the IP phone.
Step 7 The IP phone and the RADIUS server implement TLS handshake negotiations.
Step 8 If authentication is successful, the switch opens all ports and the IP phone can then access
network resources.
Step 9 Optional: If authentication fails, the IP phone obtains the eSight server IP address from the
DHCP server and then connects to the eSight server to download a new certificate.
Step 10 Optional: After the new certificate is downloaded, the IP phone automatically restarts and
initiates authentication again (starting from Step 1)
----End

EAP-TLS Certificate Update Process


The EAP-TLS certificate is stored on the eSight server. The IP phone can connect to the eSight
server to download the EAP-TLS certificate. Figure 3-3 illustrates the EAP-TLS certificate
update process.
Figure 3-3 EAP-TLS Certificate Update Process

The certificate update steps are as follows:


Step 1 The eSight server applies for a certificate based on the IP phone's serial number (SN) that has
been imported.
Step 2 The IP phone initiates an EAP-TLS authentication request to the RADIUS server.
Step 3 The RADIUS server returns a authentication failure message to the switch and then to the IP
phone.
Step 4 The switch adds the IP phone to the Guest VLAN.

4.1.1 Creating an IP Phone Subnet
Before connecting IP phones to the eSight and using the configuration and management
functions provided by the eSight, create subnets for IP phones. If TR-069 parameters are
correctly set on an IP phone, the eSight can automatically add the IP phone to the corresponding
IP phone subnet.

Prerequisites
You have the right to operate the Resource menu.

Context
l

You can create lower-level subnets in a subnet.

To ensure management performance, do not create subnets of more than 10 levels and
control the number of devices in a subnet within 500.

If the IP address of an IP phone belongs to the IP address segments of multiple subnets, the
eSight adds the IP phone to the subnet with the smallest IP address segment that covers the
IP phone's IP address.

Once the IP address of an IP phone changes, the eSight automatically moves the IP phone
to the matching subnet.

Procedure
Step 1 Choose Resource > Add Resource > Add Subnet from the main menu.
Step 2 Click IP Phone Subnet.
The Creating an IP phone subnet page is displayed.

added to the corresponding subnets.

Batch import: In the template provided by eSight, add the IP address, physical SN, and
access gateway of each IP phone to connect to eSight and import information from the
template to eSight. For details, see 4.1.5.3 Adding IP Phone Devices in Batches. This
method is slightly time-consuming.

Manual addition: Manually add each IP phone to eSight. This method takes more time and
is recommended only for the commissioning onsite.

4.1.5.1 Setting Parameters for Connecting to eSight


This section describes how to set parameters for connecting eSpace 8950s to eSight for unified
management.

Prerequisites
l

All eSpace 8950s have been connected to the network, and have their IP addresses obtained
or configured.

eSight has been deployed, and the user name and password for eSight login have been
obtained.
For details about how to deploy eSight, see the eSight Product Documentation.

Context
l

If a DHCP server has been deployed, eSpace 8950 obtains the Application Control Server
(ACS) IP address (carried in the Option 246 field) and its own IP address from the DHCP
server. eSpace 8950 then resolves the ACS server address to obtain the eSight IP address.
According to the eSight server IP address, eSpace 8950 automatically sends a request for
connecting to eSight. Once eSpace 8950 is connected to eSight, its information is displayed
on the eSight management portal.

If no DHCP server is available, you need to specify a static IP address for eSpace 8950 on
its LCD screen first. For details, see 3.3.4 Configuring the Phone IP Address.

If a DNS server has been deployed, eSpace 8950 obtains the DNS server address and its
own IP address from the DHCP server, and sends a request to the DNS server for resolving
the enterprise domain name (for example, ucems.company.com) into the eSight IP address.
According to the eSight IP address, eSpace 8950 automatically sends a request for
connecting to eSight. Once eSpace 8950 is connected to eSight, its information is displayed
on the eSight management portal.

If neither a DHCP server nor the DNS server is available, you need to manually set the
ACS IP address to the eSight IP address for eSpace 8950.

Connecting to eSight Using DHCP


eSpace 8950 is able to resolve the value of acs.address carried in the DHCP Option 246 field
to obtain the eSight IP address.

details about the setting, see 8.2.3 Setting Option 246 Parameters.

If a switch is used as the DHCP server, set the DHCP server's Option 246 field to
acs.address=http://ACS server IP address:Port number/tr069/services/acs, for example,
acs.address=http://192.168.1.37:8089/tr069/services/acs.

Connecting to eSight Using DNS


If a DNS server has been deployed, add the default domain name ucems.company.com to the
DNS server and map ucems.company.com to the eSight IP address. For details about how to
add a DNS domain name, see 8.4 Setting Up the AD and DNS Servers.
If you have added the domain name, right-click the domain name and choose Properties from
the shortcut menu, as shown in Figure 4-5. In the window that is displayed, set the IP address
of the domain name to the eSight IP address.
Figure 4-5 Modifying domain name settings on the DNS server

NOTE

If you want to change the default domain name ucems.company.com to your enterprise domain name, for
example, uc.com, enter uc.com (company is a variable, which is the name of your company) in the Option 15
field of the DHCP server. The IP phone then automatically changes the domain name from the factory default
(ucems.company.com) to ucems.uc.com and changes the ACS address from the factory default (https://
ucems.company.com/tr069/services/acs) to https://ucems.uc.com /tr069/services/acs.

Connecting to eSight in Manual Mode


For eSpace 8950, the factory default of the ACS address is https://ucems.company.com:8444/
tr069/services/acs. In manual connection mode, replace ucems.company.com with the eSight
IP address according to the data plan.

4 Selecting a Configuration Method

Context
After being connected to the DHCP server and powered on, eSpace 8950 sends a request to the
DHCP server for an IP address. In response, the DHCP server returns an IP address, together
with the URL of the UPF file (containing the addresses of the configuration file and the file
server) carried in the Option 246 parameter. eSpace 8950 then obtains the configuration file
from the file server to update its configuration. If the UPF file also specifies other files (for
example, firmware version file) to update, eSpace eSpace 8950 also obtains these files for
configuration update.

Procedure
Step 1 Modify the configuration file.
In the configuration file, set related parameters (see Table 4-4 for detailed parameter
descriptions) based on the actual network environment. For details about the other parameters,
see eSpace 8950 IP Phone Configuration File Parameter Description.

----End

Result
Log in to an IP phone using the configured account and dial *125. If you can hear the
announcement telling you the number of this IP phone, the IP phone is successfully configured.

4.2.2 Verification
After eSpace 8950s are configured in batches using DHCP Option 246, verify the configuration
result.
It is recommended that you conduct call tests on some eSpace 8950s. Specifically, access the
phone web page and check whether the displayed configuration information is the same as that
in the configuration file. If the configuration information is different, the configurations of some
eSpace 8950s fail. The possible cause is that the server cannot handle all the requests sent
simultaneously from eSpace 8950s. In this case, restart eSpace 8950s that encounter the
configuration failure and configure them again.

5.2 LDAP Directory


This section describes how to configure an LDAP directory.

Prerequisites
An LDAP server is available. An AD server running the Windows Server 2008 operating system
is used as the LDAP server in this section. For details about how to install and configure an AD
server, see 8.5 Editing the Microsoft AD2008 User.

Context
Based on X.500, LDAP is an application protocol for accessing and maintaining distributed
directory information services through the TCP/IP protocol stack. It allows users to quickly
obtain static data about people or resources.
LDAP is applicable to storage of data that needs to be obtained in different locations but does
not change frequently. According to its applicable data type, LDAP is a good choice for storing
the enterprise organizational structure and the phone numbers of enterprise employees.
eSpace 8950 supports the following LDAP directory functions:
l

Searching for a contact: On the corporate directory screen, enter your search terms and
press the Search softkey, eSpace 8950 will search for matching contacts from the LDAP
server and display the contact information. Then, you can select a contact and place a call
or save the contact to your local contact list.
NOTE

In the search results returned by the LDAP server, if the home number, office number, mobile number,
and soft client of a contact are all empty, eSpace 8950 does not display that contact.

Search for the calling party' information: After receiving a call, eSpace 8950 searches the
local contact list for the calling number. If no records are found, eSpace eSpace 8950
searches the LDAP server for the contact and displays the search result on its LCD screen.

Searching for user dialed numbers: On the predial or dial screen, each time you press a
number key, eSpace 8950 searches the contact list for that number. If records are found,
eSpace 8950 displays them on its LCD screen. If no records are found, eSpace 8950 searches
the LDAP server when the dial time expires and displays the search result on its LCD screen.
NOTE

LDAP is an industry universal protocol for accessing online directory services. Data is transmitted in plaintext.
Ensure that the LDAP function is used in a secure network to guard against the risk of information leakage.

Configuration Methods
You can configure an LDAP directory using three different methods, as listed in Table 5-3.

5.4 Emergency Call


This section describes how to configure the emergency call service. The IP phone allows users
to make emergency calls even if it is locked or unregistered.

Context
The administrator configures the physical location information on the BMP. Terminals report
their current locations to the server when they are logged in. The location information helps the
emergency contact center to locate the terminals when emergency calls are made. This is called
the LBS.

NOTICE
The location information is configured by the administrator on the BMP, and it is not
automatically collected by certain programs on the terminals. In addition, the location
information indicates physical locations within the enterprise and does not belong to personal
privacy. When configuring the location information, the administrator needs to comply with
local laws and regulations.

Prerequisites
l

The emergency call service has been configured on the SIP server.
For details about how to configure the emergency call service on a SIP server, see the
product documentation of the gateway that serves as the SIP server.

You have obtained and configured the SIP server address for the IP phone.

Configuration Methods
You can configure the emergency call service using three different methods, as listed in Table
5-9.

5.6 Service Rights Management


This section describes how to manage phone service rights.

Prerequisites
Related service rights have enabled on the SIP server. For details about how to configure service
rights on the SIP server, see the eSpace UC Product Documentation or eSpace UC V200R002C00
Product Documentation.
NOTE

For details about how to obtain related documents, see 3.1 Obtaining Reference Documents.

Context
Before using a service, enable the service rights for the IP phone by following the two steps
below:
1.

Set Authorized.
In the configuration file, the parameter corresponding to Authorized is ServiceRight with
two options:
l 0: disables a service right.
l 1: enables a service right.

2.

5.7 Advanced Secretary Service


This section describes how to configure the advanced secretary service in a network
environment. In a UC2.0 network environment, the AA server automatically pushes parameter
and settings related to the advanced secretary service to the IP phone, with no need for you to
manually configure the service.

Prerequisites
l

You have set Manager Service to Yes on the manager's phone and Secretary Service to
Yes on the secretary's phone.

The manager's phone account and the secretary's phone account have been bound to the
advanced secretary service on the SIP server. For details, see the product documentation
of the gateway that serves as the SIP server.

Context
In the advanced secretary service, a manager's phone line is bound to the phone line of the
secretary. By default, when the manager's phone has an incoming call, the manager's phone and
the secretary's phone both ring, and the secretary can decide whether to forward the call to the
manager after answering the call.

Scenario
This service has various application scenarios. The following figures depict the line button
configurations in four typical scenarios:

NOTE

l When configuring the advanced secretary service, ensure that the private line and shared line are
assigned different accounts. Otherwise, the advanced secretary service will be not available.
l It is not recommended to assign the barge-in service rights to secretaries. Otherwise, secretaries may
affect the manager's normal calls.
l The figure depiction assumes that Line shared mode is set to Single, which indicates that the phones
of different secretaries bound to the same number of the manager use different phone lines with the
manager. If Line shared mode has been set to All, the phones of all secretaries bound to the same
number of the manager will share the same phone line with the manager. This indicates that shared
lines 1 and 2 in Figure 5-2, Figure 5-3, and Figure 5-4 will become the same phone line of manager
A and that shared lines 3 and 4 in Figure 5-4 will become the same phone line of manager B.

Administrator Guide

5 Service Configuration

NOTICE
If you use the eSight file server that runs the Windows operating system as the extension mobility
server, install the server in the root directory. Otherwise, the extension mobility service is
unavailable.

Context
After a user logs in to an IP phone and modifies user configurations, extension mobility
automatically synchronizes the modified user configurations to the corresponding file on the
server. When the user successfully logs in to another IP phone using the same account, this IP
phone automatically obtains the latest user configurations from the server.
l

Use the main account (namely, the phone's first account) for remote login.

The user configurations include the contacts, contact groups, call history, conference
records, programmable buttons, server addresses, and services to which the user has
subscribed. (When contacts on the IP phone are synchronized from the server, the local
contacts saved on the IP phone are deleted.)

If the current login account is a roaming account (which is an account logged in to another
phone for extension mobility), the IP phone automatically logs out of this account and
returns to the login screen when a specific period (configured by your system administrator)
expires. In the UC2.0 network environment, if the phone has registered an account before
the roaming account is logged in, the phone is automatically logged in using the registered
account after the roaming account is logged out.

The IP phone can automatically upload the modified configurations to the server
periodically.

Scenario
Users can use this service when they have moved to and worked temporarily at another location
within the company network.

Configuration Methods
You can configure the extension mobility service using four different methods, as listed in Table
5-21.

8.1 Preparing a UPF File


This section describes the method and example of how to prepare a UPF file.

Prerequisites
You have obtained:
l

Hardware version number of the IP phone to upgrade

Address of the HTTP server where the files for the IP phone to upgrade are stored

Target version number

UPF template (which is delivered with the version release)

For information about the preceding three items, see 3.2 Required Data.

Context
l

A UPF file defines the scope of the IP phones to upgrade and the upgrade policies.

Before an upgrade, an IP phone obtains the UPF file from the preconfigured upgrade file
server. For eSpace 8950, the UPF file name has been configured before factory delivery
and is in format of UPF-Product model.xml. Ensure that the name of the UPF file on the
upgrade file server is the same as the factory default, for example, UPFeSpace8950.xml.
NOTE

The UPF file must be encoded using UTF-8.

Procedure
Step 1 Obtain the UPF template, as shown in Figure 8-1.
Step 2 Modify the parameters (see Table 8-1 for detailed parameter descriptions) in the UPF template
depending on your needs.

8.2 Setting Up the DHCP Server


8.2.1 Setting Up the DHCP Server (IPv4) in the Windows Server
2008
Context
The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) lets a device, known as a DHCP server,
allocate dynamic IP addresses to the other devices functioning as DHCP clients. To use DHCP,
a DHCP server must be deployed.
When a DHCP client sends a request for a dynamic IP address, the DHCP server provides an
available IP address and subnet mask for the DHCP client from the preserved IP address set.
The DHCP has two port numbers, that is, port 67 for the DHCP server and port 68 for the DHCP
client. This means that the DHCP client selects only port 68, rather than a temporary port that
is not used.
The two ports are selected because a response from the DHCP server can be broadcast. Figure
8-2 shows the process for an IP phone to obtain the IP address through DHCP.

Click the new zone to view the detailed resource records of the new zone. Each zone has two
records: Start of Authority (SOA) and Name Server (NS). The SOA determines the account in
use, while the NS determines the server.
When the DNS server is configured, create Type A records in the new zone.
A Type A record provides the mapping between a standard host name and an IP address. The
Name parameter indicates the host name and the Value parameter indicates the mapped IP
address. For example, {relay1.bar.foo.com, 10.37.93.126, A} is a Type A record. The procedure
for creating a Type A record is as follows:
1.

Right-click uc.com, choose New host, set the server name and IP address, and click Add
Host, as shown in Figure 8-31.
Figure 8-31 New host window

2.

Repeat the preceding step to add more Type A records to set server IP address in the new
DNS zone.
