Configuring VPNremote Telephones with Cisco Adaptive
Security Appliance (ASA) 5510 using the Adaptive Security
Device Manager (ADSM)
The following document assumes that the user/installer is familiar with configuring both IP Office and VPN devices as well as with manually configuring IP Hard-phones. This document details how to create the VPN tunnels required. It is for reference purposes only. It does not provide details on how to configure any other aspect of either device.
Test Systems Software Versions and Basic Telephone Settings
IP Office Core Software 4.2.11 Cisco ASA Model 5510 7.2(4) Cisco Adaptive Security Device Manager (ADSM) 5.2(3)

where the telephone is most likely to be used and ensure that the Virtual IP Range selected will not conflict. For instance, many VPNremote Telephones may be installed at user’s homes. Typically a Home Router uses 192.168.0.x or 192.168.1.x as its internal network range; therefore it is recommended that this is not used as a Virtual IP Address Range.
2. Review the Sample 46vpnsetting.txt file for simplifying configuration settings on the IP Telephones
3. While the defaults for Encryption are set at 4500-4500 and these settings do work in most configurations, there may be instances where depending on what the VPN Router and the Home router supports, the user may need to either amend or disable this setting.
IP Office Configuration
Using IP Office Manager, Open the Configuration and select IP Routes. Add a New IP Route for the Virtual LAN Network to be used in the environment.
Networking Scenario:
Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) Configuration
1) From the Adaptive Security Device Manager (ADSM) home screen, select the
Encryption algorithms other than DES require the installation of an enhanced encryption license from Cisco.
3) Keep the default selection of Cisco VPN Client, Release 3.x or higher, or other
VPN Remote Product. Click Next to continue.
4) Select the Pre-shared Key Authentication Method. Enter your Pre-shared Key
and Tunnel Group Name to be used by the Avaya VPNremote Telephones. Click
5) The internal ASA user authentication database is used in this document. Select the Authenticate using the local user database and click Next to continue.
7) Click the New button to create a new IP Address pool. Enter the pool name and
the IP Address range to be assigned to VPNremote Telephones as the Virtual IP Address. This address range must not overlap with any addresses on the private enterprise network and must be routable within the enterprise network. Click OK and then click Next to continue.
9) Select the IKE security association parameters that you want to use from the drop down lists. Here 3DES, MD5 and 2 are used. Click Next to continue.
11) Accept the default Address Translation Exemption and Split Tunneling options and click Next to continue.
14) If the VPNremote Telephone extensions on the IP Office are configured to allow direct media path, then the following must be done. Navigate to Configuration >
VPNremote Telephone Configuration
Below are the parameters to be configured in the VPNremote telephones. Please refer to Technical Tip 205 – VPN Telephone Deployment Guide for IP Office on how to configure these parameters.
