It's not SIP, currently, well over a year ago Avaya demonstrated SIP functionality in both the phones and in their Multivantage PBX software. This has not been released, apparently due to lack of business demand... I've tried making one work as is with asterisk and a number of other h323 products, however, I've not yet had any success... Avaya seem to have really filled these with lots of proprietary hacks... > 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?

You could possibly get an h323 trunk between the * and the Avaya PBX, but, I have not tried this yet so this too may not work... Also, something worth mentioning, the number of IP trunks you can have is limited by the number the Avaya PBX is licenced to use... If your company is not currently using trunks, there may not be any trunks available to use... Not a lot of good news there, but I hope it's helpful to you...
