Information About the Cisco Phone Proxy
The Cisco Phone Proxy on the ASA bridges IP telephony between the corporate IP telephony network
and the Internet in a secure manner by forcing data from remote phones on an untrusted network to be
encrypted.

Telecommuters can connect their IP phones to the corporate IP telephony network over the Internet
securely via the phone proxy without the need to connect over a VPN tunnel as illustrated by
