proxy, the CTL file must contain the certificate that the security appliance creates for the Cisco UCMs.
To proxy calls on behalf of the Cisco IP Phone, the security appliance presents a certificate that the Cisco
UCM can verify, which is a Local Dynamic Certificate for the phone, issued by the certificate authority
on the security appliance.

TLS proxy is supported by the Cisco Unified CallManager Release 5.1 and later. You should be familiar
with the security features of the Cisco UCM. For background and detailed description of Cisco UCM
security, see the Cisco Unified CallManager document:

TLS proxy applies to the encryption layer and must be configured with an application layer protocol
inspection. You should be familiar with the inspection features on the ASA, especially Skinny and SIP
inspection.
