Apart from the J129 (see J129), IP Office supports other J100 Series phones using an operating mode referred to as 'stimulus' mode. In that mode they support the full set of IP Office phone menus.
The J169/J179 SIP phones are supported from Release 11.0.
The J139 is supported from R11.0 SP1.
The J159 is supported from FP4 SP1.
The J189 is supported from R11.1 FP1.
They can largely be installed using the generic installation process. which provides the phones with the required J100Supgrade.txt and 46xxsettings.txt files.
The phones support "trust on first use" for HTTPS connections. The phones allow an initial connection to an HTTPS server without validating the full certificate chain as long as the server certificate name is valid. They then download and use that certificate for subsequent connections. This only applies to a new or defaulted phone on first connection.
Server Root Certificate installation for HTTPS firmware download:
If the phone is installed in a local network, it automatically downloads the IP Office system's root certificate using an unsecure HTTP connection. You must ensure that the IP Office system's root certificate(s) are installed in the system's certificate store ().
If the phone is installed in the remote network environment, the IP Office system's root certificate must to be pre-installed on the phone before it is connected in the remote network. Do this by connecting the phone to the IP Office system's local network and make sure that the phone's HTTP server setting points to the IP Office. During initial installation, the phone downloads the root certificate(s) from the system. Pre-staging is not a requirement if an Avaya Session Border Controller is not being used.
