5 IP Office R9.0 Detailed Description of Enhancements
5.1

Branch Consolidation and Centralization

IP Office R9.0 is the next release for Avaya B5800 Branch Gateway (B5800) and builds upon
Avaya’s IP Office award winning product to provide a cost-effective branch solution for Enterprise
customers. IP Office R9.0 integrates B5800 functionality such that it now has the ability to support the
deployment of the IP Office as an enterprise branch.
An IP Office enterprise branch deployment can be implemented using the IP Office R9.0 Standard
Mode (Essential, Preferred, or Advanced) system. The IP Office can be installed as an independent,
standalone branch, or be connected to the Avaya Aura® network and migrated to a Distributed,
Centralized, or Mixed enterprise branch to provide specific features and applications to meet the
needs of individual employees in each branch location.
In addition to centralized Avaya Aura® SIP endpoints, IP Office can concurrently support other IP
and TDM endpoints for a community of Centralized users and IP Office users in the same branch.
Ideal for enterprises with applications deployed in customer data centers or in the branch itself, an IP
Office branch can effectively deliver a range of communication tools without complex infrastructure
and administration.
Refer to the Branch Product Offer document for details on the branch related features delivered
within IP Office R9.0, the business benefits that customers will be able to realize from this release, a
description of the deployment architectures supported with corresponding call-flows, guidelines on
“best fit” and positioning of Avaya branch products and solutions, as well as a commercial overview
related to branch that includes specifics on training, licensing, material codes and ordering tools.
The IP Office R9.0 Branch Product Offer document will be posted alongside the IP Office Product
Update document on the SME Sales Portal on the IP Office R9.0 Sales Toolkit landing page.

Rich UC Collaboration

5.2.1

Mobile VoIP client (one-X Mobile Preferred)

The one-X Mobile Preferred mobility client launched with Release 8.0 delivered a rich and unique
Unified Communications (UC) experience on mobile devices for IP Office customers. This mobility
client worked in call-back telephony mode only i.e., when a user initiated a call from the mobility
client, the IP Office initiated a call to the caller’s mobile phone and then dialed the destination. This
mode offered cost savings to users in countries where incoming voice calls are free or for users who
have cheaper unlimited voice plan as compared with a data plan.
With Release 9.0, we are enhancing the mobility client to work in a Voice over IP (VoIP) mode. In the
VoIP mode, the mobility client can make calls over Wi-Fi/3G/4G data networks. The mobility client
using its underlying SIP stack will register with the IP Office over the data network and thus will
function as your office extension on the mobile device. The mobile user can use the mobility client to
perform all telephony features including mid-call features such as:
•
•
•
•
•
•

Incoming and Outgoing VoIP calls
Supervised/ Unsupervised Transfer
Hold / Unhold
Mute/ Unmute
Multiple simultaneous call sessions
DTMF

Users in countries where incoming calls are charged will see a significant cost savings in the VoIP
mode especially when on Wi-Fi networks.
The availability of both Call-back and VoIP modes on the mobility client will enable users to toggle
between the modes based on their network connections. This will empower end-users to make a
choice of the appropriate mode based on their voice/data plan as well as availability and quality of
the data connection (WiFi/3G/4G).
For example:
• The mobile user may choose the Call-back mode when he/she doesn’t have Wi-Fi access and
the 3G data connection is not providing good quality for voice.
• The mobile user may choose the VoIP mode when in office/home/mobile hotspots where Wi-Fi
data connection is available OR when the 3G/4G data connection is good.
One-X Mobile Preferred mobility client will support the VoIP mode on both iOS and Android devices.
The figures below show the one-X Mobile Preferred mobility client with VoIP mode for iOS and
Android devices:

Page 6 of 76

IP Office Release 9.0
Regional Applicability: All

The following mobile OS versions will be supported:
• iOS 5 and above
• Android 4 and above. Note that the VoIP mode has been tested and certified to work with
acceptable acoustic performance for the following devices only:
o Samsung Galaxy S3
o HTC One-S
o ‘Best effort’ VoIP support will be provided on other devices but may present problems
such as echo problems, voice disruption, Difficulty switching between handset, speaker
and Bluetooth, inability to change volume levels etc.
The VoIP mode will be available with the Power User profile. Users with Mobile Worker license can
avail of only the Call-back mode in the mobility client.
The following features are available only on the Android mobility client:
• Ring tone selection for the mobility client
• Selection of high-bandwidth or narrowband codecs based on the network connection (WiFi vs.
3G/4G)
• Mobility client can be configured to automatically use Bluetooth headset for controlling audio
(only) on VoIP calls when available
• Conference screen user experience enhancements
In addition to the VoIP mode, the following enhancements have been made to the call-back mode:
•
•
•
•
•
•

Ability to do call transfer (unsupervised) to another contact or arbitrary phone number.
Ability to Enable/disable mobile twinning (simultaneous ring)
Ability to Enable/disable DND (send all calls)
Call log information (incoming/outgoing/missed calls) is shown for both modes. Call log
information is combined with Voicemails in the Event history tab.
Call monitoring on the mobility client gives the user ability to see and interact with all calls the
user makes or receives through IP Office.
Addition of Dial Plan for the VoIP mode for both Android and iOS.

Flare Experience for IP Office

Avaya Flare® Experience is Avaya’s next generation user interface that establishes a high
performance collaboration environment on iPad and Windows. IP Office Release 8.1 delivered Flare
Experience for IP Office with point-to-point audio, video and IM features. With Release 9.0, Flare
Experience will deliver multi-party audio conferencing features that will help customers improve their
productivity as well as collaborate quickly.
Avaya Flare Experience delivered with IP Office Release 9 offers the following features:
Multiparty Meet-me audio conferencing with moderator controls, roster of participants
With multi-party audio conferencing support in Flare Experience, when multiple users join a IP
Office Meet-me bridge using Flare Experience, there spotlight will show all the participants in
the audio conference. Each Meet-me conference will have two types of users – Moderator
and Participants – each having a separate list of controls to control the conference. The
Moderator is always marked such with a Moderator badge and has authority to control the
meet-me conference using the following features:
o Add participants using dial-pad or drag & drop
o Mute/UnMute all or a subset of participants
o Lock / UnLock the conference: Lock the conference so that no other participant can
enter the conference. Moderator retains the privilege to add/remove the participants
by dialing out. Moderator can Unlock the conference and participants should can join
the conference.
o Place conference in lecture mode.
o Enable/Disable Entry or Exit Tone: Configurable option to play Entry or Exit Tone
when a participant joins or leaves the conference. Default is enabled.
o Drop all or a subset of participants from the meet-me conference.
o End the meet-me conference
o Enable/Disable Continuation: Enabling conference continuation allows the Moderator
to continue the conference even after he/she drops out.
o Participant promotion: The Moderator can promote the Participant as Moderator.

session over another p2p audio session to start Ad hoc conference. All the sessions
present in Flare will be merged into a single call, which will result in single active
center spotlight with contact card having display name like “Conf 100”. “100” being the
conference ID. With ad-hoc conferencing the participant list is not displayed as in the
case of meet-me conference. Users can add new participants to an Ad hoc
conference by creating another P2P session with participant and merging the session
with existing conference session.
Authorization Code and Account Code support (Windows only) - Flare Experience allows
entering the authorization code and account code for outgoing calls. Authorization code
should be entered first and then the account code if both codes are set for the user.
Hold timeout reminder- Support for hold timeout reminder has been added in Flare
Experience. The hold timeout controls how long calls remain on hold before reminding the
user who placed the call on hold. The reminder is in the form of an incoming call.
Interoperability with the Avaya Session Border Controller for Enterprise (covered in Section
5.2.4) allows Flare Experience client on Window and iPad to be used by Remote Workers and
register with IP Office without requiring a VPN connection.
Desktop Integration and Presence/IM Enhancements

Presence/IM enhancements
Presence and IM are table-stakes to any Unified Communications and Collaboration offering. IP
Office R9.0 makes the offering more scalable and more usable. Support for XMPP groups provides
the ability to aggregate users into logical groups (Sales, Marketing, Direct Reports etc.). XMPP
groups will help both IP Office Administrators and the End users in the following ways:
1. Better scaling and reduced network traffic
2. Group Communications (group chat, distributing voice messages to a group, inviting a group to
conference etc.)
3. Reducing the roster-size and providing ease of directory navigation
One-X Portal and Desktop Integration enhancements
With IP Office Release R8.0, we introduced Desktop Integration such as the Avaya IP Office Plug-in
for Microsoft Outlook and the Avaya IP Office Plug-in for Salesforce.com as part of our UC portfolio.
These integrations have helped us deliver on the promise of pervasive UC. With Release 9.0, we are
significantly enhancing the Avaya IP Office Plugin for Microsoft Outlook, filling in critical gaps that will
help users increase their productivity.
The Avaya IP Office Plugin for Microsoft is enhanced with the following features:
• Instant Messaging support
o Outlook Plugin provides Instant Messaging features such as send/receive IMs,
escalate IM to call, save/email IM conversations, IM notifications, support for multiple
IM conversations
• Enhanced directory
o Directory has been enhanced to show contact cards with details, support for avatars
and status messages as well as recent communications.
o Making changes (adds/removes) to the directory has been optimized and enhanced
(multiple contacts can be deleted at the same time)
o Users have the ability to create, update or delete a one-X Portal user group from the
plugin
• Click-to-dial from email body

5.3.2

Server Edition Virtualization Support

With R9.0, Server Edition software now fully supports virtualization with VMware with both vSphere
4.x and 5.x environments. Please refer to Virtualization section for further details.
5.3.3

Server Edition Management Enhancements

R9.0 brings in the new Web Based Management support to manage the entire multi-site Server
Edition solution. There are various features that are added in R9.0 and the Web Based Management
will continue to be enhanced in the subsequent releases. Below is an overview of the enhancements
for R9.0. Please refer to the Web Manager Evolution section for additional details on the
implementation including screen shots.
-

-

Consolidated management platform for mid-market multi-site solution (primary, secondary,
expansion, application servers). The R8.1 server management portal (Web Control) has been
enhanced and integrated into Web Management.
Simplified Linux distribution, server and ignition options
Single URL management; no need to point to different servers
Single, one-time log-in for IP Office management including VM Pro and one-X Portal
Simplified task flow, intuitive menu structure and enhanced graphical design
Improved, solution wide back-up, restore, upgrades and user management
User management for User configuration, moves, adds and changes, import/export

5.4 Server Edition Resiliency Enhancements
R9.0 continues to support various resiliency enhancements throughout the solution. Following are the
key resiliency enhancements this release.
Media Connection Preservation
With this enhancement, the R9.0 Server Edition software can now preserve the RTP stream of active
calls during network or call server outages where possible; the calls do not get re-routed.
Key Features
1. Supported on H.323 and SIP trunks including SCN trunks between Server Edition
Systems.
2. Supported on 96x1 H.323 phones for full media connection preservation.
3. Call can continue as long as media can flow but other call features like hold or transfer will
not be available.
Configuration Options
1. At System Level: default “enabled” but “disabled” on upgrade.

IP Office Release 9.0
Regional Applicability: All

2. Per SIP trunk: default disabled.
PSTN fall back
This feature allows to route calls over PSTN when VoIP trunks fail or busy. It provides a mechanism
to route H.323/SCN trunk calls via PSTN on busy or out of service by creating an ARS entry titled
‘**NET**’
1. For each ‘far-end’ user a single entry with PSTN number.
2. Can include hunt groups.
Caveats:
1.
2.
3.
4.

Only dial or transfer supported.
No specific indication in SMDR.
Voicemail leave or collect not supported.
Cannot differentiate between busy and out of service.

Local Failover hunt groups
This feature helps maintain hunt group processing for all local users until the connection is reestablished. Also the local hunt group processing will not persist over restarts.
Primary Failover Controls
For R9.0 a new DSS button and SSA feature that indicates the failure status as seen from the
Secondary. Pressing the button will force the voicemail and hunt group processing to the Secondary.
1. No effect on anything other than the Secondary
2. Must have a failure condition. Will not work if Secondary can see Primary
VM Pro Resiliency Enhancements
The need to have a second set of VM Pro licenses on the Secondary server has been eliminated.
Please see licensing improvements section for more details.
5.5 Music on Hold (MoH) support
Music on Hold delivers the following capabilities for Sever Edition and virtualized IP Office.
1. Support for alternate music sources on Linux Primary, Secondary and Expansion systems.
Server sources include locally stored single WAV file (default), local single directory of .WAV
files (playlist). Server Edition (not including virtualized IP Office) also supports local input via a
USB audio sound device and supports centralized delivery (to all nodes) from Primary, with
ability of any node to selectively opt out of centrally delivered MoH in favour of locally defined
MoH. When in resilient mode, Secondary and Expansion Linux servers will revert to a default
tone as the MoH source. Support continuous playing of .WAV files with option to define a
playlist or play same file continuously.
2. Maintain the existing start/stop play option available for Linux and virtualized systems.
5.6

Soft-Console Enhancements for Server Edition

With R9.0, Soft-Console now better fits the needs of a multi-site Server Edition deployment. With
R9.0, Soft Console now can be attached to any node (not just the Primary node). But this also means
that the licensing of Soft Console is no longer centralized and is now node-based.

4. Configuration of forwarding DND etc. of remote users.
5. Set Remote hunt groups In/Out of service.
6. Call Tagging.
Note: Aggregated Hunt group pickup recall queues are not supported.
5.7

Linux Contact Store Support

A Linux based version of this application has been added to the Server Edition platform. The
functionality of this application is unchanged from the user perspective. The software is delivered as
a Linux RPM file in the regular IP Office Service Edition image and also is included in the ISO file for
the Linux version of the IP Office Application Server, which adds this software to the already existing
Voice Mail Pro and one-X server images. Contact Recorder for IP Office runs on an application
server separate from the Server Edition Primary and/or Secondary servers that host the Voicemail
Pro application. Contact Recorder for IP Office Server Edition should not be installed when loading a
Primary or Secondary server.
We have also changed the name of the software from Contact Store for IP Office (CSIPO) to Avaya
Contact Recorder for IP Office (ACRIPO). This name change is reflected in the management screens
and documentation.
5.8

Server Edition Security Enhancements

R9.0 brings in several security enhancements for Server Edition.
5.8.1

Single Sign-On (SSO)

R9.0 extends the Single Sign On (SSO) feature to Voicemail Pro, one-X Portal and Web
Management. To achieve this, new Server Edition installs (but not upgrades) activate a ‘referred
authentication’ feature. This feature refers all login requests to the local IP Office, using its security
settings. Web Manager, by the use of its ‘Synchronise Security Database’ feature, ensures the same
user accounts are on all systems, including the Application Server.

5.8.2

Username/Password support

R9.0 brings in username/password support to login (rather than login code) to sign in to the various
IP Office clients (Softphone, one-X Portal, one-X Mobile, Flare etc.). R9 introduces the ability to set a
system-wide user password policy, and the ability for a user to manage their password. Users can
change their password from one-X Portal.
Key Features
1. User passwords can still be set in Manager:
a. Complexity violations are shown as errors

IP Office Release 9.0
Regional Applicability: All

b. Configuration can still be saved, except for system locale France2
2. User password policy is set in the security settings
3. One-X Portal provides the mechanism to change passwords (even if they are not licensed
one-X Portal users)

5.8.3

SIP – TLS

R9.0 brings in Secure SIP support for trunks and extensions
1. Configured in manager – the IP Office SIP registrar can accept TLS registrations, SIP trunks
can be configured for SIP-TLS.
2. Optional separate telephony identity certificate (and checks) used by IP Office.
3. A ‘Strict SIPS’ setting on System|Telephony|Telephony prevents conversion from SIP-TLS to
SIP by IP Office
5.8.4 Identify Certificates
R9.0 Server Edition extends the capability to securely distribute the IP Office identity certificate. Now
you can have a single certificate for the Server Edition supported on the Linux Server.
IP Office identity certificate can be copied to:
1. One-X Portal web server
2. Web Management web server
3. WCP web server
5.8.5

TLS/SRTP for Remote Clients via Avaya Session Border Controller for Enterprise
(ASBCE)

IPO R9.0 provides support for the Avaya Session Border Controller for Enterprise. This appliance supports
remote user endpoints to register to the IP Office via the back-to-back user agent of the SBC. This allows for
the following clients to utilize SRTP for encryption of the data stream and TLS to support call control and
signalling.

2.
3.
4.

See Section 5.2.4 for more detail on the Avaya SBCE support.

5.9

Server Edition Licensing Enhancements

5.9.1

VM Pro Licensing Changes for Resiliency support

This feature eliminates the need to have a second set of VM Pro Ports on the Secondary (Resilient)
Linux Server in order to support Voicemail resiliency. Now all varieties of VM Pro licenses can be
administered on the Primary alone and are applied to the secondary as well. All features of VM Pro
will now become active on the secondary during failover without the need for a second set of
licenses. The grace period is still applicable when the Primary is not available.

5.9.2

Upgrade Licenses

In order to upgrade R8.1 Server Edition system to R9.0, an upgrade license SKU can be installed.
Key Features

1. One upgrade license count per node (equal number of Server Edition licenses and Upgrade
licenses).
2. All upgrade licenses installed on Primary server and managed centrally.
3. If insufficient licenses are present, any unlicensed node can still be managed but cannot
make calls (as per IP500 V2).
4. Application Server does not require any upgrade (or edition) license
5.10 Server Edition Multi-site Telephony Features.
Following are the SCN (multi-site) specific telephony features supported with R9.0.
1. Network-wide Park/Unpark slots (and park/page)
2. Network-wide Follow me
3. Remote Relay on/off
4. Remote hunt group night service (also used for SSL VPN link control)
5. Note: User (internal) Twinning still per-node
5.11 Other Server Edition Enhancements
In R8.1 IP Office for Linux was commercialized as an underlying product enabler for Server Edition.
In 9.0 it continues this role and inherently becomes the enabler for virtualized IP Office. The aim for
IP Office for Linux is that, as an all-IP solution it matches all relevant capabilities of IP500 V2 and
extends this for Linux where appropriate. IPO R9.0 furthers this aim with items mentioned below and
addressed already in the complementary sections on Server Edition and Virtualization.
5.12 Consolidation of Linux Images
To simplify the availability of IP Office Linux software to Partners, the IP Office and Applications
Server Linux images are combined as a single image. Distinction for what is implemented in any
specific case is determined as part of the ignition process that a Partner goes through when
deploying the software. This consolidation is applicable to both virtualized and non-virtualized
images.
Several IP Office for Linux operational enhancements have been implemented to improve
maintenance and diagnosis capabilities. These capabilities are part of Avaya’s continued emphasis
on product and service quality and should assist in reducing resolution times with any IP Office for
Linux problems reported to Avaya
5.13 USB Install for Linux
This new capability provides an alternative to DVDs for installing and upgrading IPO for Linux
systems. NOTE: This is not applicable on virtualized IP Office systems.
5.14 Virtualization
IP Office R9.0 introduces a virtualized version of IP Office. This software allows IP Office to coreside on customer provided hardware alongside other customer applications; instead of needing
dedicated hardware. This provides customers with a means of better utilizing their computing
resources, as well as adding flexibility in how they manage their hardware environment and
applications.

Key customer value:
• Co-exist on customer provided server hardware with other Avaya or 3rd party applications
•

Efficient use of customer hardware resources

•

Optimized data center footprint requiring less power and less cooling (Green)

•

Lower TCO; higher flexibility

5.14.1 Platform Requirements for Virtualization
IP Office virtualization is supported on VMware as the virtualization software. Minimum software and
hardware platform requirements must be met:
• VMware vSphere 4.x or vSphere 5.x software
• VMware vSphere client software for management (basic client to manage the vSphere ESXi
software and virtualized instances running on a single host server)
• vCenter management software is NOT required for IP Office, however may be useful,
particularly where customers have a multi-host server environment
• Host hardware supporting VMware vSphere AND supporting IP Office minimum resource
requirements for the desired configuration (CPU, memory) to meet the customer’s
configuration (see below for more details)
• VMware ESXi generally requires:
o Intel-based CPUs from the Xeon family with 2 GHz clock speed or better
o 6 GB or more memory - depends on number of supported users (See below for more
details)
o VMware hardware requirements:
http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=
1003661
Note: The site describes what hardware is required to run vSphere ESXi. The requirements to
support IP Office are incremental. See tables below.

o

VMware hardware compatibility:
http://www.vmware.com/resources/compatibility/search.php

•

The VMware vSphere software and applicable hardware must be sourced directly by the
partner/customer; it is not sourced from Avaya.

5.14.2 Virtualization Packaging
IP Office R9.0 provides a virtualized equivalent of the IP Office Server Edition and Applications
Server. These are packaged in a single OVA format ready for installation on vSphere supported host
hardware from a PC. The OVA is available as a download from Avaya, or from an orderable DVD.
Once deployed on the vSphere host, it can be ignited as one of: Primary, Secondary, Expansion, or
Applications Server (VM Pro and one-X Portal).

Regional Applicability: All

5.14.3 Licensing for Virtualization
For virtualized IP Office there is a unique Server Edition license introduced (See the section on new
material codes). This new material code is equivalent to the Server Edition license for non-virtualized
deployments. It is required for each of: Primary, Secondary and Expansion system deployed –
whether these are deployed on the same host server or not. All other licenses are common between
IP Office Server Edition and virtualized IP Office.
Migration of licenses from an existing non-virtualized Server Edition to a virtualized Server Edition
can be done as a free-of-charge license swap; assuming the customer has an IP Office Support
Service (IPOSS) contract in place. This license swap is handled through Avaya’s distributors and the
ADI tool. It requires the existing and new System Identification (System ID) codes to be provided.
5.14.4 Feature Support with Virtualization
As with IP Office Server Edition, the virtual IP Office can support up to 1500 users across a Primary
and Secondary, and up to 30 Expansion systems. If desired these systems can be deployed as a
mix of virtualized and non-virtualized IP Office systems.
Features between the virtualized and non-virtualized software are the same with a few exceptions.
The first exception is installation. In the case of virtualized IP Office the ability to install and upgrade
software from as USB is not supported. Similarly, Music On Hold sourced via a USB sound device is
not supported on virtualized IP Office. All other enhancements to Server Edition are supported on
the virtualized IP Office software.
System Identification (System ID) is determined using a different algorithm for the virtualized IP
Office software. In this case, the System ID is affected by: IP Address of Lan1/Lan2, Hostname and
Time zone. If after applying licenses any of these parameters are changed then the System ID will
change and new licenses will be required. It is recommended that on initial installation these
parameters are confirmed prior to requesting licenses.
VMware offers capabilities that can be useful in some circumstances. For example, vMotion allows
the IP Office software to be seamlessly moved from one hardware host to another, which can assist
in managing multiple servers. VMware vCenter is required. The Performance tab in the vSphere

client offers resource monitoring, and with the VMware vCenter software deployed additional history
of the resource monitoring is possible. Finally, the Snapshot feature allows saving and recovering IP
Office configurations from VMware. To make use of Snapshot the application VM must be turned off.
5.14.5 Hardware Resource Management
VMware vSphere facilitates the sharing of hardware resources between applications. Memory, CPU
capacity and input/output capacity are the primary resources being shared and each require
configuration per application. The two key parameters needing to be configured for each application
running on vSphere are: Reserved and Allocated. Reserved resources are dedicated to the
application while Allocated resources are shared. Essentially, this can be interpreted as Reserved
representing a minimum resource level requirement and Allocated representing a higher resource
level that is required from time to time.
Each table below provides a guideline for Allocating and Reserving hardware resources for the IP
Office software. This is based on several deployment characteristics including: how system is ignited
(Primary/Secondary, Expansion, etc.) and how the system is used (number of users, with/without
one-X Portal etc.). These Allocated and Reserved values are meant to serve as a guide and may
have to be adjusted upwards or downwards based on the specifics of the solution. VMWare vSphere
Client can be used to monitor actual resource usage over a period of time and can assist in tailoring
resources for optimal use. In addition, IP Office provides alarms (warning and critical) for CPU,
memory and I/O to indicate when usage levels reach a high level compared to what is reserved.
Resource Configuration Steps:
1. Consult the relevant table below depending on the role of the OVA.
2. Determine the use case that most closely matches the customer deployment.
3. Set the resource values of the OVA in vSphere to the values from the table.
4. Monitor and optimize over time.
Note: The tables below will be finalized by GA of IP Office R9.0; some adjustments may occur. It is
recommended that post-GA the IP Office Virtual Machine Deployment document is referenced for the
current and detailed view.

Storage and Input/Output:
The minimum storage requirement in all cases is 100GB of hard drive space. For network
connectivity, two Ethernet ports available for application traffic are recommended. Network traffic I/O
and storage I/O will vary depending on customer and solution. A typical scenario might have for
example network traffic I/O reaching 60MB/s of network traffic and storage I/O reaching 45MB/s.
These should represent small overhead on CPU capacity and will create alarms warning when
utilization exceeds levels defined in the software. Alarms on resource levels are meant to be a guide
for identifying potential problems.
5.15 IP Office Anywhere Demo Software
IP Office Anywhere demonstration software is being enhanced with R9.0 to allow for the
demonstration software to be configured as an SME standalone demo system or as a multi-node
Server Edition demo system. The IP Office Anywhere R9.0 demonstration software will be available
for download coincident with IPO R9.0 General Availability.
5.16 Web Manager Evolution
IP Office Web Manager was initially launched with IP Office R8.0 to support the Basic Edition.
In R8.1 Web Manager’s use was expanded to include the Automated On-Boarding functionality
required to support the introduction of the IP Office Support Services (IPOSS) offering. A
complementary Web Control Portal was also introduced in R8.1 to support the multi-site
administration for solutions running Server Edition solution.
The next step, in Avaya’s plan to further evolve the IP Office Web Manager into a single,
comprehensive management tool for IP Office, is available in R9.0. IP Office R9.0 delivers the
following Web Manager innovations:

5.17 SIP Trunks
Service Providers continue to broaden their SIP trunk offerings and SME customers are increasingly
evaluating and adopting SIP trunks. IP Office R9.0 continues to respond to these market trends, with
several new SIP trunk capabilities, designed to simplify and address a wider set of implementation
scenarios. The IP Office architecture brings the benefits of Session Initiated Protocol (SIP) to the
enterprise customer through SIP Service Providers. To help enable the SIP Service Provider, Avaya
operates a comprehensive SIP Compliance Testing Program referred to as GSSCP. This program
will validate the operation of the IP Office solution, with the Service Provider’s SIP trunk offering.
For more information about Avaya’s SIP Compliance Testing Program (GSSCP), please refer to the
following link:
https://enterpriseportal.avaya.com/ptlWeb/bp/so/CS201172610238111040
New SIP Trunk Capabilities
Direct Media on IP Office 500v2 Platform
Direct media allows all IP endpoints to send RTP directly to each other rather than having all
media flowing through the IP Office. This reduces network and VCM utilization for more
optimized implementations.
SIP Trunks Alarm Enhancements
This enhancement enables IP Office to generate an SNMP Trap when there are no free
channels available to handle a call on a SIP Trunk. It allows external applications to monitor
the performance of an IP Office, and determine whether it is sufficiently provisioned
Fax Enhancements for Super G3
IP Office R9.0 enables SIP Trunks to detect tones generated by Super G3 fax machines and
configure the DSP channel with the appropriate codec and ECAN settings. This is applicable
for Service Providers that support higher data rate fax machines. Fax enhancements for
Super G3 are only available on the IP Office 500 and 500v2, not on the Linux servers.
SIP Response Mapping to ISDN (Q.850) Cause Values
For SIP calls this feature sends and receives Reason headers with Q850 content. This
header is included in specific SIP response messages as specified in RFC3398. The Q850
content includes an ISDN cause value and text.
RFC2833 Default Payload Configuration Option
It is now possible to configure the default RFC2833 payload to be used when initiating SIP
calls. The enhancement addresses the situation where some devices and networks cannot
negotiate the dynamic payload type for RFC2833, and insist on a value different from the IP
Office default of 101.
Session Refresh Enhancements
IP Office will now have the ability to initiate the use of SIP Session Timers on SIP/SM Trunks,
whether the other end , supports it or not. SIP Calls between IP Office endpoints, can now
make use of this mechanism to detect the loss of SIP sessions caused by failure in the
network path or remote endpoint, freeing up resources appropriately

IP Office Release 9.0
Regional Applicability: All

Direct Early Media Support plus UPDATE with SDP (see Note 1)
Early Media includes audio (e.g. ring back, remote tones or announcements) heard before the
far end answers. Early Media is considered to be Direct when the media is sent directly from
one IP endpoint to the other rather than being anchored by the IP Office. In some call
scenarios (e.g. blind transfer) a SIP UPDATE must be sent to the far end to inform it of a new
destination for the media stream. Using Direct Early Media can reduce network bandwidth
consumption and VCM utilization on the IP Office network.
P-Early-Media Header for Remote/Local Progress Tones (see Note 1)
The P-Early-Media Header is used by some SIP trunk providers when there may be multiple
early media sources. SIP calls may be forked, resulting in multiple early sessions to be
established, but it is not clear to the originating party which session should take precedence.
This feature allows the network to indicate which early media to play to the caller.
SIP Trunks Empty INVITE support (see note 1)
IP Office can now allow incoming SIP trunk calls to the IP Office without SDP in the INVITE.
These (slow starts) were formerly rejected with a 503 Service Unavailable response. The
Offer/Answer model allows for an INVITE with no SDP, but then the OFFER must present in
the 200 OK, and the answer is then provided in the ACK. The Offer/Answer model allows for
an INVITE with no SDP, but then the OFFER must present in the 200 OK, and the answer is
then provided in the ACK.
Note 1: Supported only on the France2 locale.

5.18 Automated On-Boarding and SSL/VPN Related Enhancements
IP Office R8.1included the successful introduction of the new IP Office Support Services
maintenance offer. To support the offer, Automated On-Boarding and SSL/VPN functionality was
introduced in the R8.1 product.
IP Office R9.0 builds upon the initial introduction by expanding the IP Office elements that can use
the Automated On-Boarding and SSL/VPN connection, providing release over release updates to the
inventory file to represent new hardware elements and additional material codes required to support
the evolution of the IPOSS offering.
Key enhancements include:
• SSL/VPN manual configuration for Basic Edition through Web Manager so as to facilitate the
use of SSL/VPN by Business Partners who are establishing their own SSL/VPN
infrastructure. In R8.1 manually configuring SSL/VPN was limited to using IP Office Manager
and therefore one could not configure SSL/VPN tunnels to systems running Basic Edition.
•

SSL/VPN Automated On-Boarding for the external Linux applications server used with IP
Office. In R8.1 these servers required manual registration which added an extra step when
completing the processes associated with establishing an IPOSS contract.

•

Expanded use of the Network Address and Port Translation (NAPT) feature, introduced in
R8.1 FP1, to work with the Linux servers thereby completing the solution coverage. With
NAPT support, the SSL/VPN tunnel can be enabled to remotely access LAN devices on the
private side of the IP Office 500v2 or the Linux servers. An SSL/VPN tunnel configured to the

IP Office can now be used to remotely manage devices such as the IP Office Unified
Communication Module (UCM), the IP Office external UC applications server running
Preferred Edition or Advanced Edition, the Avaya Session Border Controller for Enterprise
(ASBCE) and other LAN devices.
•

Updates to the automated the inventory file created as part of the Automated On-Boarding to
include new hardware material codes introduced in this release. This ensures the most
accurate installed base information can be extracted from the IP Office.

5.19 Other IP Office Support Enhancements
IP Office software, in service date, for warranty and support tracking:
The IP Office will retain a service date for software that can be retrieved using a web services call.
This service date will be the following format
X.0.0.0 YYYY-MM-DD
For example
9.0.0.0 2013-07-01
-

This date is set the first time the software is executed and then only overwritten if a higher
release is executed than what is stored. If the date is not set then it will only be set on first
call. If it is not set an error will be returned.
The date is the current date set of the system.
It is set for each release that requires a software upgrade license

It is not set if the release value is a lower value. This prevents systems from downgrading and the
reinstalling the new software to reset the date
The service date will be stored in the flash on the IP Office v1/v2 system and therefore relates to the
date the unit was loaded with the software.
The in service date will be store in a new field in flash memory. The service date will only apply
starting in IPO R9.0, the service date will not be erased if a system is downgraded.
The service date will be displayed by the Web Management client.

System Monitor (SysMon) Enhancements:
There are a number of valuable enhancements to System Monitor delivered in R9.0 which will further
improve the diagnostic capabilities of the IP Office solution. These include:
• Activating System Monitor: All nodes in an IP Office R9.0 Server Edition solution are able to
send their SysMonitor messages to the syslog server running in the Primary server. This can
be activated or deactivated in Manager as required.
• Configurating System Monitor Filters: The syslog filter options are configured by using
SysMonitor. By default only Print, Error, Resource and Licensing events are filtered. The
filters / trace options in SysMonitor allow the selection of various desired filters to be sent to
syslog.
• Decoding Data: The encoded SysMonitor syslog messages are only readable by the
SysMonitor application. Open the SysMonitor application within Web Manager on the primary
server and ensure that text logging is enabled (enabled by default in R9.0). Open the log files
to be decoded and decoded messages are displayed.
• Other System Monitor Enhancements: SysMonitor logging to file is enabled by default. Log
files are rolled over according to settings. Filter labels are also more descriptive with
Verbose/Standard/Terse options for SIP events, media events and VoIP events.
Alarm Filtering:
• Alarm filtering is now available based on severity to complement the current filtering by
component.

Regional Applicability: All

5.25 IP Office Customer Call Reporter (CCR)
The IP Office Customer Call Reporter (CCR) is a call center reporting application for use with Avaya
IP Office systems focused on the SME market (not supported on IP Office Server Edition). CCR can
report on both individual call center 'agents' and on the queues (hunt groups) of which those agents
are members. CCR is accessed through a web browser using a name and password to login. Those
login details determine whether the CCR web client runs in agent, supervisor, administrator or
wallboard mode. Capacity of CCR is up to 150 Agents and/or 30 Supervisors and 1 Administrator.
For IP Office Release 9.0, CCR introduces new wallboard enhancements, a number of report
enhancements and a new custom reports wizard to energize the small to medium enterprise with
extensible contact intelligence.
Enhancements to reports include:
Lost Calls

Custom Reports Wizard

Answered Calls

Overflow Answered

Overflow - Lost

Incoming - External

analog/POTs extensions in Basic Edition
• Simplified Manager, Web Manager and TUI allows programming ALS and Line appearance
options
• Any analog extension may dial 9 against intercom dial tone to access next available line in
ALS list
5.37 Call Admission Control (CAC)

Call Admission Control (CAC) allows improved management of VoIP calls to match the network
bandwidth available. By controlling the number of allowed calls from/to specific locations the quality
of VoIP for a given network deployment can be more deterministic.

5.37.1 Key Concepts:
The concept of Location has been created to assist in managing CAC (as well as enhancing
emergency information). Locations apply to both single site and multi-site deployments. They are
associated with one or more physical sites and are identified by an IP address and name - each
Location can be identified by its subnet address and mask. Locations may or may not have an IP
Office deployed – in many cases the Location may have only phones deployed.
Choice of Location naming can be done to better assist easy identification for ongoing management.
IP Office, IP extensions, DECT, PSTN gateways and SIP trunks/SBC/Proxy are each placed in a
Location. These Locations may be IP Office managed or unmanaged. IP Phones may be set to
“Auto” where the location is calculated from the registering IP address.
To support CAC, each Location can have an explicit maxima defined for number of calls made
external to that Location. These include maxima for: on-net, off-net and total calls (off-net is defined
as calls to an unmanaged location via a SIP trunk). Once the maxima specified for a given location is
reached the status is defined by IP Office as Congested. The Congestion is cleared once the
congested parameter falls below the defined level.
Note 1: CAC management of number of allowed VoIP calls does not affect emergency
calling. Emergency calls are always allowed.
Note 2: Established calls are never torn down to achieve CAC limits.
Note 3: A phone on a remote site that parks a call will always be allowed to retrieve it. This
parked call will remain accounted: location limits include parked calls
Example CAC Configuration:

IP Office Release 9.0
Regional Applicability: All

For Server Edition, Location configuration done “solution-wide” - all IP Office Server systems
deployed as part of a Server Edition solution share the same location configuration. This is enforced
by the Server Edition manager.
5.37.2 Congestion Behavior:
CAC works by comparing the configured maxima and then allowing/disallowing a new call based on
tracking the number of current on-net, off-net and total calls for that Location. In the case of a
Primary or Headquarters Location, any calls passing through that are anchored will increment the
count at Headquarters; if the call is direct it is not. Example, a call from a remote site (RS-x) made
via a SIP line at Headquarters to a SIP service provider will be counted unless the media is going
directly from RS-x to the SIP line.
Once congestion is determined one of several behaviours will occur depending on the circumstances
(incoming/outgoing, voicemail configured/unconfigured for extension, etc.)
• Calls from extensions to public trunks through ARS will queue (WAITING-FOR-LINE), either
with or without comfort tones depending upon whether congestion is exceeded by playing the
comfort tone.
• Calls from extensions to public trunks which do not route through ARS will receive Fast-busy
tone (for a limited duration) and display “Congestion”.
• Idle phones at a congested location will display “Emergency/Local calls only”
• Alternative routing to a local PSTN gateway will follow ARS priority escalation rules. (It can be
configured to follow the PSTN alternative immediately, or wait a period before escalation.)
• Incoming calls from SIP trunk registered to HQ to RSx require both the congestion parameter
for HQ Location and for RSx Location to not be exceeded.
• SIP trunk calls that are not allowed to RSx can go to HQ voicemail if Headquarter limit is not
exceeded (this is a configurable option)
• SIP trunk calls that would exceed congestion and have no other targets (example: voicemail,
it will be declined with cause=486 or cause = 503 (configurable option)
5.38 911 Enhancements
Release 9 replaces the legacy E911 feature with new functionality to handle the routing and
notification of Emergency call based on new Location configuration objects. Support for legacy E911
add-ons is removed from IP Office R9.0.
•

•

Dial Emergency Call Routing: On matching a Dial Emergency short code, the system will
initially try to find the best matching Locations which contains an ARS to determine which line
to use. In priority order this will be: Location exactly matching Extensions location; System
location. If neither locations resolve an ARS record, then the fallback is provided by line
group ID and the Dial Emergency short code (as in previous releases).
Emergency Call System Alarms: Emergency Calls is a system event that can be added into
the Systems Events configuration.

number, Trunk SCN/Tandem
• Location Name

6 Entitlement Period
Effective April 19, 2012, the IP Office entitlement policy was updated and all prior entitlements to an
IP Office upgrade are superseded. Prior to this date, the IP Office system could be upgraded to the
latest release of IP Office software during a 90 day Entitlement period and the customer could move
to the latest release without purchasing an upgrade license. However, all customers must now
purchase an upgrade license to upgrade to R8.1 or later.

7 Upgrading
Customers using Release 8.0 and earlier will need to purchase an upgrade to get to Release 9.0.
Effective with Release 8.1, IP Office Support Services contracted customers are entitled to no charge
IPO software updates/upgrades. For R8.1 customers that are not contracted with IP Office Support
Services, an upgrade will need to be purchased to get to R9.0.
Corrective content is available during the 90 day warranty period. Post warranty access to corrective
content (including Service Packs and Minor (aka Dot) Releases) is an entitlement of an IPOSS
Agreement. Without an IPOSS agreement, post warranty corrective content is not available to the
channel partner. Please note that access to service packs or updates without a customer agreement
in place would be a violation of Avaya’s End User Licensing Agreement.

Regional Applicability: All

For Scopia 8.0, the video solution has been broken into small and medium deployment scenarios.
The small solution using Scopia 8.0 firmware will be ready for 8.1 FP1. The medium solution has

FP1 – SP5 and 9.0. This variant of the XT5000 platform is integrated to IP Office and must register to
the IP Office as an Avaya SIP endpoint for the Video Server component to function (MCU). Release

used with the Radvision Elite MCUs.
IP Office R9.0 will support:
• Video Collaboration Solution for IP Office
o XT5000 Video Server for IP Office with 3.2 Firmware (must register with IPO for MCU
to function)

10 Demo Kits
10.1 Power Demo Kit
The IP Office Power Demo kit provides a fully licensed and functional IP Office system for use in
demonstrations at a substantially reduced cost. For added simplicity, there is a custom configuration
file created specifically for the Power Demo system. There is also an option to purchase a custommade case to protect the system and make it easier to bring to your customer.
The Power Demo kit is being updated with R9.0 to include the V2 version of the ATM4/Combo card
and reflect new license codes being introduced with R9.0. Only the license codes are changing, the
Power Demo licenses included in the kit are unchanged from previous versions of the Power Demo.
To upgrade an existing IP Office Power Demo system to R9.0, complete Appendix B of the IPO
Power Demo Product Update to secure the upgrade license. The IPO Power Demo Product Update
document can be found on the Avaya Sales Portal for SME under “Selling Tools”. Due to lag times
with stocking and testing, the R9.0 IPO Power Kits demo kits will be available on October 23, 2013.
10.2 Anywhere Demo
The Anywhere Demo is a downloadable software package, which provides a fully functional IP Office
system or Server Edition system that runs on a laptop, allowing a sales person or SE to conduct an
IP Office demo virtually anywhere. The software is pre-configured for added simplicity, but it also
allows customization of settings when a more specialized demo is required. The system is designed
to work with just a PoE switch and IP Phones.

11.2 IP Office System SD cards

Avaya. Avaya will not supply SD cards directly to reseller Partners. Partners are required to order
SD card media from their respective Avaya Authorized Distributors.

Page 58 of 76

IP Office Release 9.0
Regional Applicability: All

System SD cards supplied by Avaya contain all the system software required for the IP500 V2,
including expansion module and phone firmware binaries. An update to the latest IP Office software
release may be required to have the latest software on the SD card for the installation. This can be
done in IP Office Manager. Please check for the latest available software on
http://support.avaya.com/.
The only thing that makes an IP500v2 a R9.0 vs. a R8.1 system are the files on the SD card, which
can be updated. Upon GA, although we update the software load being burned on SD cards, these
updates take some time to get through the distribution chain as distributors and partner inventories
get replenished with the new software load. The material code of the SD card doesn’t change.
Partners can continue selling R8.1. When they do the initial installation they can install whatever
release they are standardized on. The process we have for IP Office affords them the flexibility not to
be tied to the date when we introduce a new release.
Standard installation practice is to always load the latest version of software available on Avaya
support of whatever release one wishes to use on the system. This is recommended since from the
time we shipped the SD card we may have released a Service Pack on R8.1 so the partner would
always be prudent load the latest version.
This approach of being able to treat the SD card as a generic entity, providing the flexibility to install
whatever release is required, makes it easier. Partners need not worry about changing material
codes, about managing stock of different SD cards, about holding off an order until the GA date
because they want to ensure that they receive the new release, etc.
The following System SD cards are available and are independent of a particular release of IP Office.

14 List of New and Updated IP Office R9.0 Material Codes
All pricing of IP Office Release 9.0 material codes will be sent to distribution partners through the
normal Price List Administration Tool (PLAT) procedure.
Note that all IP Office license material codes are being updated to R9.0 versions to allow for better
tracking of software license deployment by both Avaya and our Business Partners. Updated
license descriptions make it easier to select the correct software when provisioning new systems.
Also note that R9.0 introduces a new set of Product Licensing and Delivery System (PLDS) codes for
IP Office deployed in the Branch, aligned with the traditional Avaya PLDS Enterprise license model.
A complete list of the current R8.1 (and earlier) license codes, new IPO R9.0 ADI license codes and
IPO R9.0 PLDS license codes are included in Appendix B.
While PLDS codes are available to support IP Office deployed as a branch, IP Office R9.0 will
continue to support the ADI (traditional SME license model) and as a hybrid solution where both ADI
and PLDS licenses can exist on a single system. Not all licenses have both ADI and PLDS variants –
only where applicable to both models.
IP Office Release 8.1 will remain available for sale, with existing codes and pricing, until the next
major IP Office software release, currently planned for the second half of calendar 2014. Release 8.1
codes and pricing will remain available in Avaya commercial tools as long as the release is available
for sale.

15 GRIP requests delivered in IP Office Release 9.0
The Global Requirements Integration Process, otherwise known as GRIP, was introduced at Avaya
as a mechanism to capture the voice of Avaya’s customers, partners, and employees to accelerate
innovation which ultimately helps Avaya become a more responsive solution provider. GRIP is a
partnership between Sales, Services, Product Management and Development groups so that Avaya
can design, develop and deliver what our customers and the marketplace demands. GRIP is the only
formal process at Avaya, where our customer and partner feature / function requests are
documented in one location via the centralized GRIP tool and driven through an automated workflow
process.
GRIP requests are often entered by Avaya associates on behalf of the business partner or customer
or can be entered directly by the business partner. Entering a GRIP feature request ensures that the
request is handled according to the defined GRIP workflow, ultimately resulting in a decision by the
Avaya business unit responsible for the specific product.
To arrive at a decision on a GRIP request, the responsible Avaya business unit will assess the merits
of the request in conjunction with the broader Avaya roadmap planning process. GRIP’s that are
approved for implementation are done so at the sole discretion of the Avaya business unit after
reviewing the information provided in the GRIP. Submitting a GRIP should not in any way be
interpreted as an indication or an expectation that the feature request will be accepted for
implementation. Only a subset of submitted GRIPs is approved for implementation. The number of
