Transport Layer Security (TLS) Settings

To configure TLS, you must enter the “sip transport protocol” parameter with a value of “4

(TLS). See the “sip transport protocol” description on

page A-104

.

Also enter the following parameters in the configuration files to configure TLS:

Parameter
sips persistent tls

Configuration Files

aastra.cfg, <model>.cfg, <mac>.cfg

Description

Enables or disables the use of Persistent Transport Layer Security (TLS).

Persistent TLS sets up the connection to the server once and re-uses that
connection for all calls from the phone. The setup connection for
Persistent TLS is established during the registration of the phone. If the
phones are set to use Persistent TLS, and a call is made from the phone,
this call and all subsequent calls use the same authenticated connection.
This significantly reduces the delay time when placing a call.

Notes:
1.

Persistent TLS requires the outbound proxy server and outbound

proxy port parameters be configured in either the configuration files or the
Aastra Web UI (Advanced Settings->Global SIP->Basic SIP Network
Settings

). There can be only one persistent TLS connection created per

phone. The phone establishes the TLS connection to the configured
outbound proxy.
2.

If you configure the phone to use Persistent TLS, you must also

specify the Trusted Certificate file to use. The Root and Intermediate
Certificates, Local Certificate, and Private Key files are optional.
