VPN Profiles for Softphones

Tags softphone

Environment

Cisco IP Communicator or Cisco Jabber softphones on Ann Arbor campus

Issue

Audio issues with U-M-provided Cisco softphones

Resolution

Our best recommendation is for U-M softphone users to use UMVPN - All Traffic or UMVPN - Only U-M Traffic unless you have been given special access to one of these alternate profiles that are confirmed working with Jabber:

  • Temp-VoIP profile
  • UMHS SSL VPN
  • Special Developer
  • UMSOD (Dentistry) *pending setup

How to sign into a different VPN profile:

  1. Sign out of the soft phone client (Jabber or IP Communicator) completely
  2. Disconnect from the VPN
  3. Sign back into the UMVPN - All Traffic (*** Do not use any other VPN in the drop down)
  4. Relaunch the soft phone client (Jabber or IP Communicator)
  5. Call center users only: Relaunch Cisco Finesse
