Secure and nonsecure call indication tone
When a phone is configured as secure (encrypted and trusted) in Unified Communications Manager, it can
be given a "protected" status. After that, if desired, the protected phone can be configured to play an indication
tone at the beginning of a call:
• Protected Device: To change the status of a secure phone to protected, check the "Protected Device"
• Play Secure Indication Tone: To enable the protected phone to play a secure or nonsecure indication
Only protected phones hear these secure or nonsecure indication tones. Nonprotected phones never hear tones.
If the overall call status changes during the call, the indication tone changes accordingly. At that time, the
protected phone plays the appropriate tone.
A protected phone plays a tone or not under these circumstances:
• When the option to play the tone is enabled, Play Secure Indication Tone option is enabled (True):
If the Play Secure Indication Tone option is disabled, no tone plays.
