IP Conference phone on IP Office
by DougR on Nov.10, 2009, under Avaya, IP Office, Polycom, Technology
For several releases users have been looking for an alternative to the Analog speaker phone option in Conference Room solutions. Until now there was no official support for any IP or Digital phones on IP Office. The best option was an analog phone and a page of instructions. With the introduction of R5 of IP Office, SIP endpoints are now supported. With SIP endpoints a plethora of options open up for integration, including new Conference Room phones. SIP is a loose standard and many devices may have at minimum a partial support. Using this concept we reach the multi-line IP conference phone.

IP Office SIP application notes
by DougR on Jul.02, 2008, under Avaya, Best Practices, IP Office
Avaya IP Office 4.1+ has enabled SIP trunking. Every SIP provider is a little different. The Avaya Interoperability Labs has tested several providers and written Application Notes for these providers. The list is by no means an endorsement, but can be a valuable resource. The next best resource for setting up SIP trunking is System Monitor with the SIP filters enabled. These filters give detailed information on the SIP communication and can help determine the source of most any problem. Links to the known Application notes after the jump.
