</div>One thing that frustrates people about Polycom is the very limited list<br>
of root CAs they support - it was probably OK when they first started<br>
doing SSL, but things have changed a lot now<br>
<br>
The latest phones (e.g. IP321) have more memory than those they replace<br>
(e.g. IP320) and so they should be able to handle a larger list of built<br>
in root CAs (which Polycom can distribute through the firmware update).<br>
 The obvious ones that are missing are the budget CAs:<br>
<br>
- CaCert.org (all certs are free)<br>
- <a href="http://startssl.com" target="_blank">startssl.com</a>  (which has some \
                free certs)<br>
- GoDaddy<br>
<br>
These budget CAs are now supported by the various Linux distributions<br>
and Android phones, so they are clearly above a certain threshold of<br>
stability<br>
<br>
Polycom phones should also be able to handle 4096 bit certs with the<br>
extra memory, but that appears to need remediation in the firmware (I<br>
tried installing a custom 4096 bit cert and it didn&#39;t accept it)<br>
<br>
If anyone is registered with Polycom as a reseller, they can quote these<br>
issue numbers:<br>
<br>
EXT-3192 GoDaddy root CA cert<br>
