Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Asterisk and Avaya IP phones

The company I work for has deployed an Avaya IP phone system.  They have deployed the Avaya 4602 and 4620 IP telephones.  They might be sending me one of these phones for use in my home office.

Question: Can I make this IP telephone register and work with my Asterisk server?  I don't know if it is a SIP phone?  I searched thru the Avaya site, but can't find whether it’s a SIP phone or not.  Thought maybe someone on this list would know.

Question: Would I be able to register my Asterisk server or an individual SIP phone (Cisco 7960 or Polycom IP600) with the Avaya server these 46xx IP telephones use?  I don't know what model of the Avaya server the company has purchased, so I have limited info here.

Thanks in advance,

These phones are H.323 phones from what I remember of the documentation, so they are compatible in a VERY general sense.  However, I'm sure that there are alot of proprietary things that the phone does that would have to be sniffed out in order to make it fully compatible if that is even possible.  I wouldn't expect any help from Avaya either. :)
