New and Changed Features
The following sections describe the features that are new or have changed in this release.
IPv6 Support
The Cisco IP Phones support IPv6 addressing. A valid IPv6 address is 128 bits in length that includes the subnet prefix. The subnet prefix length is a decimal value from 1-128. IPv6 has support for NTP and SIP. IPv6 addresses must be in one of the following formats:
Eight sets of four hexadecimal digits separated by colons, where the left-most digits represent the highest-order bits. Any leading or trailing zeros in each group may be omitted. An example of an IPv6 address is 2009:10:74:10:6969:ad71:93c5:2fca.
Compressed format to collapse a single run of consecutive zero groups into a single group represented by a double colon. Note that this can only be done once in an address. An example of compressed format IPv6 address is fe80::21b:54ff:feb0:4f91.
Phone features that do not support IPv6 are:
Group Paging
TR069
LDAP
STUN

Configuration Report to Provisioning Server
You can configure the phone to report its current configuration to the server. After you configure, the server issues a SIP NOTIFY message to the phone to report the configuration. You can configure this feature from the phone web page.

Distinctive Ringtone
You can set a distinctive ringtone for an extension. Distinctive ringtone allows the phone to avoid playing default ringtone always and enables the receiver to identify the type of the incoming call on the extension. Distinctive ringtone depends on the SIP Alert-Info message that the server sends to the phone. When the phone receives a correct SIP Alert-INFO message, it plays the specified ringtone. Otherwise, the phone plays the default ringtone.
