Providing Telecommunications Security

Telecommunications security (of voice, data, and/or video communications) is the prevention of any type of intrusion to (that is, either unauthorized or malicious access to or use of) your company's telecommunications equipment by some party.

Your company's "telecommunications equipment" includes both this Avaya product and any other voi ce/ data/video equipment that could be accessed via this Avaya product (that is, "networked equipment").

An "outside party" is anyone who is not a corporate employee, agent, subcontractor, or is not working on your company's behalf. Whereas, a "malicious party" is anyone (including someone who may be otherwise authorized) who accesses your telecommunications equipment with either malicious or mischievous intent.

Such intrusions may be either to/through synchronous (time-multiplexed and/or circuit-based), or asynchronous (char acter-, message-, or packet-based) equipment, or interf ac es fo r reasons of:

• Utilization (of capabilities special to the accessed equipment)

• Theft (such as, of intellectual property, financial assets, or toll facility access)

• Eavesdropping (privacy invasions to humans)

• Mischief (troubling, but apparently innocuous, tampering)

• Harm (such as harmful tampering, data loss or alteration, regardless of motive or intent)

Be aware that there may be a risk of unauthorized int rus io ns ass ocia te d with your system and/or its networked equipment. Also realize that, if such an intrusion should occur, it could result in a vari ety of losses to your company (including but not limited to, human/data privacy, intellectual property, material assets, financial resources, labor costs, and/or legal costs).

Responsibility for Your Company’s Telecommunications Security

The final responsibility for securing both this system and its networked equipment rests with you - Avaya’ s customer system administrator, your telecommunications peers, and your managers. Base the fulfillment of your responsibility on acquired knowledge and resources fr om a variety of sources including but not limited to:

• Installation documents

• System administration documents

• Security documents

• Hardware-/software-based security tools

• Shared information between you and your peers

• Telecommunications security experts

To prevent intrusions to your telecommunications equipment, you and your peers should carefully program and configure:

• Your Avaya-provided telecommunications s ystems and their interfaces

• Your Avaya-provided software applications, as well as their underlying hardware/software platforms and interfaces

• Any other equipment networked to your Avay a products

RTCP Monitoring

RTCP is an IP protocol that is used to monitor the quality of RTP packets. Quality is measured in terms of delay, jitter, and packet loss.

If RTCP monitoring is enabled, the VoIP engines send RTCP packets to the RTCP monitor. You must configure an IP address for the RTCP monitor, and determine intervals at which the RTCP data is checked.

The following table lists the RTCP monitoring fields and their descriptions.
