IP Office can be made a very secure product, however only a certain number of features are active by default or on upgrade from previous releases. This is in order to ease the initial installation but will not help protect the system without following the suggestions listed in this document, other Avaya security publications and the relevant IP Office installation/Administration manuals. It is therefore necessary to check and implement the configuration options listed here.

Additional setting may be necessary to further secure the individual deployment. Avaya is presenting this information for guidance only; the customer is responsible for ensuring their system is secure.
