Cisco Unified IP Phone Release Notes for Firmware Release 8.5(3) (SCCP and SIP)
Revised: November 16, 2009
The information in this release note applies to the following Cisco Unified IP Phones—7975G, 7971G-GE, 7970G, 7965G, 7962G, 7961G/G-GE, 7945G, 7942G, 7941G/G-GE, 7931G, 7911G, and 7906G.
Use these release notes with a Cisco Unified IP Phone running SCCP or SIP firmware release 8.5(3).The following table lists the Cisco Unified Communications Manager release and protocol compatibility for the Cisco Unified IP Phones.
Note
SIP firmware release 8.5(3) is designed and tested to interoperate with Cisco call control, most notably Cisco Unified Communications Manager release 7.1. Although SIP firmware is IETF RFC 3261 compliant, it is not supported by Cisco TAC or Engineering for use with non-Cisco call control systems.

Secure SIP Failover for SRST
Firmware release 8.5(3) provides support for secure calls on a Cisco Unified IP Phone running the SIP protocol to remain secure once the call fails over to SRST from Cisco Unified Communications Manager. In addition, this feature enables the user to verify that the call is still secure by the lock icon that remains on the phone display.
The SRST supports RTP and SRTP media connections according to how the security settings are configured on the IP Phone.
The system administrator configures SRST on a Cisco router to allow endpoints using SIP to register to SRST using SIP/UDP, SIP/TCP, and SIP/TLS/TCP.
An example of a complete secure configuration for the SRST is shown below:
voice service voipsrtp fallbackallow-connections sip to h323allow-connections sip to sipsipurl sipssrtp negotiate ciscovoice register globalsecurity-policy securesip-uaregistrar ipv4:101.2.0.10 expires 3600xfer target dial-peercrypto signaling default trustpoint 3745-SRST strict-cipher
Note
An example of a complete device-default configuration for the SRST is shown below:
voice service voipsrtp fallbackallow-connections sip to h323allow-connections sip to sipsipurl sipsrtp negotiate ciscovoice register globaldefault security-policysip-uaregistrar ipv4:101.2.0.10 expires 3600xfer target dial-peercrypto signaling default trustpoint 3745-SRST
Beginning in firmware release 8.5(3), when an IP Phone endpoint using SIP is in a secure call that fails over to SRST from Unified CM, the user will continue to see the lock icon on the phone display, indicating the call remains secure. In previous releases, a SIP/TLS/TCP call that fails over to SRST will display the play arrow icon to indicate a non-secure call.
When IP Phones register to the SRST, if all segments of the call are SIP endpoints, all of the supplementary features are supported—conference, transfer, blind transfer, and call forward. If the segments of the call are both SIP and SCCP endpoints, only basic call is supported.
This feature is supported on the following IP Phones:
