General
1. General
These release notes apply to version 2.2.2 of the SoundPoint IP SIP application.
This release is a patch release that replaces the 2.2.0 release as the latest generally
available (GA) release.
For more information, refer to the documents listed in Section 4.
1.1 Important Notes
• This software release does not include images for the SoundPoint IP 300 and 500
phone models. If deployments utilize a mix of IP 300 and IP 500 phones along with
newer models the steps detailed in technical bulletin 35311 must be followed. The
Knowledge Base for 35311).
• Support for encrypted media using SRTP is available in this release. Due to the
significant inter-operability needs when deploying SRTP, this feature is available
when the phones are used with particular call servers and network infra-structure
only. Please contact your solutions provider to establish whether they offer this
feature. Anyone wishing to use this feature for inter-operability testing should contact
Polycom to receive technical bulletin 25751 for details on how to enable this feature.

echo may occur on speaker phone when switching between handset and
speaker phone
• 35533: The phone’s web server shows the DST start and stop days as Monday
by default instead of Sunday

res.finder.minFree
This parameter is used to ensure that the
phone will not download resources which
could leave it with insufficient memory to
function correctly. A resource will not be
downloaded if the phone has less memory
free than res.finder.minFree [kBytes].
This parameter can have the values 1 to
2048. The recommended configuration file
value is 1200. If the parameter is left empty
the default is 800.

call.stickyAutoLineSeize
Can be 0 or 1.
Set to 1 to make the phone use "sticky"

5W
This “EM Power” flash parameter is accessible when the SIP application is running
under the Network Configuration menu. Note that no Expansion Modules can be
connected to the phone when the “EM Power” parameter is disabled. The default
setting for this parameter is Enabled (i.e. 12W power requirement). In order for the
correct CDP power requirements to be reported at boot time as well, bootROM
version 3.1.3 is required. See Tech Bulletin TB14052 for details on how to use this
feature.
• 14886: Changed power reported via CDP to platform-specific values
In order for these CDP power requirements to be reported at boot time as well,
bootROM version 3.1.3 is required.

Notes
3.1 Upgrading
This section lists the changes that should be made to configuration files when using the
centralized (boot server) provisioning model. For general guidelines, see the Updating and
Rebooting information in Section 4.3 of the Administrator Guide.
3.1.1 From Version 2.2.1 to 2.2.2
3.1.1.1 Mandatory Changes
• None.
3.1.1.2 Optional Changes
• TCP Keep-Alive message when using TLS
Configure the tcpIpApp.KeepAlive parameters as detailed in Section 2.1.4 if using
TLS and there is a risk of the TCP connection being improperly terminated.
• Read-only Contact Directory
If it is desired to centrally manage the phones directory, the user can be restricted
from making any changes. To enable this capability set dir.local.read-only = “1”
• Disable Presence (MyStat and Buddies) soft-keys when using the Presence
feature signalling
Some call servers use the phones ‘Presence’ feature for controlling BLF capability
but don’t implement the full suite of Presence options. To avoid giving the user
visibility to this setting, the idle soft-keys may be removed from the phone UI by
setting pres.idleSoftKeys=”0”
3.1.2 From Version 2.2.0 to 2.2.1
3.1.2.1 Mandatory Changes
• None.
3.1.2.2 Optional Changes
• None
3.1.3 From Version 2.1.2 to 2.2.0
3.1.3.1 Mandatory Changes
• New configuration file settings for audio
The entire “voice” section in the latest sip.cfg must be used to ensure good audio
quality.
• New configuration file settings for indicators
The entire “indicators” section in the latest sip.cfg must be used to ensure correct
icons on the display.

Release Notes - SIP Application
Notes
3.1.4 From Version 2.1.1 C to 2.1.2
3.1.4.1 Mandatory Changes
• Adding logging of version information for configuration files
In order for this new feature to work, the latest version of all configuration files must
be used.
3.1.4.2 Optional Changes
• Using different versions of configurable items in <Ethernet address>.cfg for
different phone models or platforms
Different phone models or platforms can be configured to use different application
files, configuration files, log file directory etc. See technical bulletin TB35361 for
details.
• Optimizing failover behavior for authentication signaling
Use the new parameters voIpProt.SIP.authOptimizedInFailover in sip.cfg and
reg.x.auth.optimizedInFailover in phone1.cfg to change the phone’s failover behavior
during authentication signaling if desired.
• Viewing message waiting indicators while still retaining one-touch voicemail
access when multiple lines are configured
If a phone has multiple lines with just one registration set to have
msg.mwi.x.callBackMode = “registration” and all others set to have
msg.mwi.x.callBackMode = “disabled” but it is desirable to be able to see message
waiting indicators for all lines and still retain one-touch voicemail access, set the new
parameter up.mwiVisible to 1 in sip.cfg.
3.1.5 From Version 2.1.1 to 2.1.1 C
3.1.5.1 Mandatory Changes
None.
3.1.5.2 Optional Changes
None.
3.1.6 From Version 2.1.0 to 2.1.1
3.1.6.1 Mandatory Changes
None.
3.1.6.2 Optional Changes
• Using URI from call’s contact header in refer-to header
Set the parameter voIpProt.SIP.useContactInReferTo to 1 in sip.cfg if the URI from
the initial call’s Contact header should be used in REFER’s refer-to header when
setting up a transfer. The previous and default behavior is to use the URI from the
initial call’s To header.
• Supporting G.729 Annex B SDP signalling per RFC 3555
If the new parameter voice.vad.signalAnnexB in sip.cfg is set to 1, a new attribute

3.1.7 From Version 2.0.3 to 2.1.0
3.1.7.1 Mandatory Changes
• Using a Microsoft LCS Server
It may be required to set the new parameters voIpProt.server.x.lcs (in sip.cfg) and
reg.x.server.y.lcs (in phone1.cfg) if the phone registers to a Microsoft LCS server.
3.1.7.2 Optional Changes
• Using “inactive” stream mode attribute when a call is put on hold
The default behavior is for the “sendonly” stream mode attribute to be used when a
call is put on hold. This behavior can be changed to use the “inactive” attribute. In
order to configure this behavior, the parameter voIpProt.SIP.useSendonlyHold must
be set to 0.
• Digit map extension support
The digit map can be configured to remove, add or replace digits. For details see
Technical Bulletin 11572.
• Restricting transport to TCP
The transport used by the phone can be restricted to TCP. This means the phone
will not attempt to fail over to UDP if TCP fails. A new “TCPOnly” option has been
added to all parameters which control the transport used by the phone.
• Adding “sticky line seize” behavior for hot-dial (on-hook) dialing
If sticky behavior is desired for hot dialing this can be configured using the new
call.sticky.AutoLineSeize.onHookDialing parameter. Hot dialing sticky behavior can
be configured to be different than normal new call sticky behavior. “Stickiness” refers
to using the same line for a new call as the last-used line when a call has been put
on hold.

The master configuration file may contain the string “[MACADDRESS]”. This will be
replaced with the MAC address of the phone. For example, the file
000000000000.cfg may refer to [MACADDRESS]phone.cfg which will be replaced
with something like 0004f2100137phone.cfg. This can make provisioning more
efficient.
• Adding Nortel MCP NAT traversal
The new parameters voIpProt.SIP.pingInterval and reg.x.proxyRequire should be
configured if this feature is needed.

Notes
• Reducing the power requirements reported via CDP for a SoundPoint IP 601
A new flash parameter “EM Power” is available under the Network Configuration
menu of SoundPoint IP 601 phones. If this is set to “Enabled” the phone will report
power requirements of 12W which is sufficient to power three Expansion Modules. If
the parameter is set to “Disabled” the phone will report power requirements of 5W
and no Expansion Modules can be connected to the phone. By default this
parameter will be set to “Enabled” when the phone is upgraded to 1.6.5. BootROM
version 3.1.3 is required in order for the same power requirements to be reported at
boot time. Please refer to Tech Bulletin TB14052 for details on upgrade/downgrade
process with respect to this parameter.
3.1.16 From Version 1.6.3 to 1.6.4
3.1.16.1 Mandatory Changes
None.
3.1.16.2 Optional Changes
None.
3.1.17 From Version 1.6.2 to 1.6.3
3.1.17.1 Mandatory Changes
• Dialog event package draft backwards compatibility
If the old dialog event package draft behavior is desired (SDP is sent in dialog body),
set the new voIpProt.SIP.dialog.useSDP parameter in sip.cfg to 1.
3.1.17.2 Optional Changes
• Changing the destination of phone-specific override file uploads
Use the new CONTACTS_DIRECTORY and OVERRIDES_DIRECTORY fields in
000000000000.cfg.
• Preventing IP address caller ID display when PSTN caller is unknown
The “url-dialing” feature must be disabled in order for the IP address to be hidden.

3.2 Outstanding Issues
The following issues will be fixed in a subsequent release.
Note: Polycom has switched to a different issue tracking system which has caused the
reference numbers in these release notes to be different to earlier versions. When the
issues are addressed the numbers in this release note can be used to track in which
version the issue is addressed.
• 24398: No Layer 2 QoS support for signaling protocol (TCP)
Workaround: The default QOS parameters will still be used for TCP signaling
packets, and these may be specified in the sip.cfg configuration file. Layer3 QoS
settings are supported.
• 24805: Cannot answer an incoming call while directory is being saved
Workaround: None.
• 26615: Subnet mask forces all packets through gateway when not using DHCP
and when using the wrong subnet mask for the network class in use, for
example using 192.168.X.X addresses with a 255.255.0.0 subnet mask
Workaround: Use the correct subnet mask.
• 26920: Centralized conference fails due to RTP port being slow to open in
some cases
Workaround: None.
• 27469: Local Conferencing on IP4000 phones is disabled if G.729 is in the
Codec preference list
Workaround: Disable G.729 as a Codec option on the phone by setting
voice.codecPref.IP_4000.G729AB=””
• 28508: Phone crashes after receiving high call rate (4 unanswered calls every
18 seconds)
Workaround: Reduce the incoming call rate.
• 29344: HTTP Digest Authentication does not work on IIS
Workaround: Use a different form of authentication, a different protocol or a different
server
• 29946: Log files are not uploaded if an Apache 2.0.X boot server requires
authentication
Workaround: Turn off authentication or use version 1.3.3X of the Apache server.
• 30086: Boot servers running explicit FTPS are not supported
Workaround: Use implicit FTPS or HTTPS.
• 30371: Pattern generator for tones does not work well for the case of a single
repeating chord
Workaround: Start the pattern with a short period of silence then the desired initial
chord. Loop back to the desired initial chord instead of the initial silence.
• 30903: Packet Loss statistics ‘jump’ if calls are transferred.
Workaround: If using the packet loss statistics for troubleshooting purposes make a
note of the Packet Loss value after the transfer and apply a correction based on this
to subsequent calculations.

Notes
• 32476: IP601 does not work correctly when Presence feature is enabled with
LCS server without using Roaming Buddies
Workaround: Enable roaming buddies by setting roaming_buddies.reg to the LCS
registration number.
• 32611: BLA line can not place and hold more than 10 calls
Workaround: For BLA lines ensure that call.callsPerLineKey is set to 10 or lower.
• 32816: Phone crashes on subsequent call if using NTLM and received transfer
from non-NTLM phone
Workaround: Ensure that all phones involved in a transfer use NTLM, or do not use
NTLM authentication
• 32994: SoundPoint IP 650 phone may have an incomplete display with only
shades of grey after booting up
Workaround: Cycle power to the phone to make it boot again
• 33063: Active FTP mode is not supported for phone provisioning
Workaround: Configure the ftp server for Passive FTP operation.
• 33445: LCS Presence and dialing from Buddy Lists does not work across
‘Federations’
Workaround: To dial contacts across federations program a speed dial with the SIP
URI of the contact. There is no workaround for watching ‘Federated Buddy’ status
from the phone.
• 33593: Shared line does not show remote active for the second incoming call if
callsPerLineKey parameter is set to 1
Workaround: Set callsPerLineKey parameter to a value greater than 1.
• 34454: If microbrowser is enabled and refreshes are too frequent and pages
contain large images, the phone may crash
Workaround: Do not refresh microbrowser too frequently in configuration settings or
by rapidly pressing the Refresh softkey. Design the pages so that the content is
within reasonable limits.
• 34743: A phone may freeze when it receives a check-sync if the resources on
the phone are heavily used by downloaded wave files or large or complex
microbrowser pages
Workaround: Reduce the RAM disk size configured in sip.cfg (this will reduce the
amount of space available for downloaded wave files and other resources) by setting
ramdisk.nBlocks to 3072. Design web pages used by the microbrowser carefully.
• 36969: SoundStation IP 4000 phone does not display Japanese language
properly.
Workaround: None.
• 37391: The Phone may fail to boot if the contact directory contains improper
XML syntax.
Workaround: Ensure that the contact directory is in a proper XML format.
• 37449: The phone may re-boot when the user tries to end a local conference if
the call server does not respond to the REFER message.
Workaround: Ensure that the server is configured to respond to the REFER that
ends the conference.

• 37391: Brief audio ‘noise’ due to SRTP encryption key change..
Workaround: To minimize the frequency of occurrence configure the
sec.srtp.key.lifetime as long as possible.
•
37437: When SRTP is used with both Authentication and Encryption enabled
on SoundPoint IP 301, 501, 600 and 601 platforms, and three-way conferencing
is enabled the phone will re-boot when a local conference is attempted.
Workaround: Disable local conferencing by setting sec.srtp.leg.allowLocalConf="0"
(this is the default setting) or disable SRTP Authentication. See Technical Bulletin
25751 for details.
•
38279: If a 403 response is received by the phone when attempting to
complete a call transfer in the proceeding state the phone may re-boot.
Workaround: Set allowTransferOnProceeding=”0” which prevents a transfer from
occurring during the proceeding state.
•
•
39419: Maximum Backlight Intensity setting has very little effect on
SoundPoint IP 560 phones.
Workaround: None.
39490: In some call scenarios the phone may not display the SRTP secure line
icon even though the call is encrypted.
Workaround: None.
Note: The phone does not ever indicate that a call is encrypted when it is not.
39630: Using SoundPoint IP 330/320 phone with LCS2005; Blocking a roaming
buddy from the Privacy list also prevents the user from viewing the 'Blocked'
buddy's status
•
Workaround: Do not block user’s from viewing your status if you wish to view their’s
