Firmware and Configuration Files  
Firmware and Configuration Files  
Description  
When the IP phone is initialized for the first time, DHCP is enabled by default.  
Depending on the type of configuration server setup you may have, the IP phone  
may download a firmware version and configuration files automatically, or you  
may need to download it manually.  
Note: Automatic download is dependant on your configuration server  
setup.  
The firmware consists of a single file called:  
<phone model>.st (for example, 55i.st) - This file contains information about  
the specific IP Phone model and contains the language packs to load to the  
phone.  
The configuration files consist of two files called:  
aastra.cfg - This file contains configuration information about the IP Phone.  
<MAC>.cfg (for example, 00085D1610DE.cfg) - This file contains  
configuration information about the IP Phone.  
The following table provides the files that the phone requests from the  
configuration server during bootup of the phone:

Firmware and Configuration Files  
Configuration File Precedence  
Aastra IP phones can accept two sources of configuration data:  
The server configuration most recently downloaded/cached from the  
configuration server files, aastra.cfg/<mac>.cfg (or the aastra.tuz/<mac>.tuz  
encrypted equivalents).  
Local configuration changes stored on the phone that were entered using  
either the IP phone UI or the Aastra Web UI  
In the event of conflicting values set by the different methods, values are applied  
in the following sequence:  
1. Default values hard-coded in the phone software  
2. Values downloaded from the configuration server  
3. Values stored locally on the phone  
The last values to be applied to the phone configuration are the values that take  
effect.  
For example, if a parameter’s value is set in the local configuration (via Aastra  
Web UI or IP phone UI) and the same value was also set differently in one of the  
<mac>.cfg/aastra.cfg files on the configuration server, the local configuration  
value is the value that takes effect because that is the last value applied to the  
configuration.

Copy the firmware file <phone model>.st to the root directory of the configuration server. The IP  
phone accepts the new firmware file only if it is different from the firmware currently loaded on the IP  
phone.  
Note: The <phone model> attribute is the IP phone model (i.e., 9143i.st, 9480i.st, 9480iCT.st, 51i.st,  
53i.st, 55i.st, 57i.st, 57iCT.st).

IP Phone Administrator Guide  
Configuration Methods  
Aastra Web UI  
An administrator can setup and configure the IP phone using the Aastra Web UI.  
The Aastra Web UI supports Internet Explorer and Gecko engine-based browsers  
like Firefox, Mozilla or Netscape.  
Note: An Administrator can enable or disable the Aastra Web UI for a  
single phone or all phones in a network. For more information about  
enabling/disabling the Aastra Web UI, see “Enabling/Disabling the  
Aastra Web UI” on page 2-16.  
HTTP/HTTPS Support  
The Aastra Web UI supports both Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) and  
Hypertext Transfer Protocol over Secure Socket Layer (HTTPS) client and server  
protocols.  
HTTP is the set of rules for transferring files (text, graphic images, sound,  
video, and other multimedia files) over the Internet. When you open your  
Web browser, you are indirectly making use of HTTP. HTTP is an  
application protocol that runs on top of the TCP/IP suite of protocols (the  
foundation protocols for the Internet).  
HTTPS is a Web protocol that encrypts and decrypts user page requests as well as  
the pages that are returned by the Web server. HTTPS uses Secure Socket Layer  
(SSL) or Transport Layer Security (TLS) as a sublayer under its regular HTTP  
application layering. SSL is a commonly-used protocol for managing the  
security of a message transmission on the Internet. It uses a 40-bit key size  
for the RC4 stream encryption algorithm, which is considered an adequate degree  
of encryption for commercial exchange. TLS is a protocol that ensures privacy  
between communicating applications and their users on the Internet. When a  
server and client communicate, TLS ensures that no third party may eavesdrop or  
tamper with any message. TLS is the successor to SSL.  
Note: HTTPS uses port 443 instead of HTTP port 80 in its interactions  
with the TCP/IP lower layer. Both the HTTP and HTTPS port numbers  
are configurable using the configuration files, the IP Phone UI, the Aastra  
Web UI and DHCP Option 66. For more information about configuring  
these ports, see Chapter 4, the section, “Configuring the Configuration  
Server Protocol” on page 4-104.

Configuration Interface Methods  
Configuration Methods  
HTTP/HTTPS Client and Server Support  
The Aastra IP phones allow for HTTP request processing and associated data  
transfers to perform over a secure connection (HTTPS). The IP phones support  
the following:  
Transfer of firmware images, configuration files, script files, and web page  
content over a secure connection.  
Web browser phone configuration over a secure connection.  
TLS 1.0or SSL 3.0 methods for both client and server  
HTTPS Client  
When an HTTPS client opens and closes its TCP socket, the SSL software  
respectively handshakes upon opening and disconnects upon closing from the  
HTTPS server. The main HTTPS client functions are:  
Downloading of configuration files and firmware images.  
Downloading of script files based on an “HTTPS://” URL supplied by a  
softkey definition.  
HTTPS Server  
The HTTPS server provides HTTP functionality over secure connections. It  
coexists with the HTTP server but has its own set of tasks. The main HTTPS  
server functions are:  
Delivery of web page content to a browser client over a secure connection.  
Execution of HTTP GET and POST requests received over a secure  
connection

IP Phone Administrator Guide  
Configuration Methods  
Non-Blocking HTTP Connections  
The IP Phones support a non-blocking HTTP connection feature. This feature  
allows the user to continue using the phone when there is a delay during an  
HTTP connection while the phone is waiting for the HTTP server to  
respond. This feature also allows a user to abort the connection and perform other  
operations on the phone (which will abort the HTTP connection automatically). A  
user can also abort the HTTP loading by pressing the GOODBYE key while the  
phone is displaying “Loading Page.......”.  
Note: This feature impacts only the HTTP calls triggered by a phone key  
(softkey or programmable key); the HTTP calls performed by action  
URIs are still blocking.  
Authentication Support for HTTP/HTTPS Download Methods for  
Broadsoft Client Management System (CMS)  
The IP Phones have authentication support per RFC 2617 when using HTTP or  
HTTPS as download protocols. If a 5i Series phone is challenged by an HTTP or  
HTTPS server when the server attempts to download the aastra.cfg file, the phone  
automatically sends "aastra" as the default Username and Password back to the  
server. For more information about this feature, see Chapter 5, the section,  
“Authentication Support for HTTP/HTTPS Download Methods, used with  
Broadsoft Client Management System (CMS)” on page 5-345.

Configuration Methods  
Using HTTPS via the Aastra Web UI  
HTTPS is enabled by default on the IP phones. When you open a browser window  
and enter an IP address or host name for a phone using HTTP, a server redirection  
occurs which automatically converts an HTTP connection to an HTTPS  
connection. After the redirection, a “Security Alert” certificate window displays  
alerting the user that information exchanged with the phone cannot be viewed or  
changed by others. Accepting the certificate then forwards you to the phone’s Web  
UI.  
Notes:  
1. The private key and certificate generate outside the phone and embed  
in the phone firmware for use by the HTTPS server during the SSL  
handshake.  
2. Using the configuration files, the IP phone UI, or the Aastra Web UI,  
you can configure the following regarding HTTPS:  
- Specify HTTPS security client method to use (TLS 1.0 or SSL 3.0)  
- Enable or disable HTTP to HTTPS server redirect function  
- HTTPS server blocking of XML HTTP POSTS to the phone  
Reference  
For more information on configuring the HTTPS protocol, see Chapter 4, the  
sections:  
“Configuring the Configuration Server Protocol” on page 4-104

XML HTTP POSTs HTTPS Server -  
Block XML HTTP  
https block http post xml Enables or disables the blocking of  
XML scripts from HTTP POSTs.  
POSTs  
Some client applications use HTTP  
POSTs to transfer XML scripts. The  
phones’s HTTP server accepts  
these POSTs even if server  
redirection is enabled, effectively  
bypassing the secure connection.  
When this parameter is enabled  
(blocking is enabled), receipt of an  
HTTP POST containing an XML  
parameter header results in the  
following response:  
“403 Forbidden”. This forces the  
client to direct the POSTs to the  
HTTPS server through use of the  
“https://” URL.

4, “HTTPS Client/Server  
Configuration” on page 4-36.

SIP Settings  
The following paragraphs describe the SIP parameters you can configure on the IP  
phone. SIP configuration consists of configuring:  
Basic SIP Authentication Settings  
Basic SIP Network Settings  
Advanced SIP settings  
RTP Settings  
Autodial Settings  
Notes:  
1.  
Specific parameters are configurable on a global and per-line basis.  
You can also configure specific parameters using the IP Phone UI, the  
Aastra Web UI, or the configuration files. If you have a proxy server or  
have a SIP registrar present at a different location than the PBX server,  
the SIP parameters may need to be changed.  
2.  
The IP phones allow you to define different SIP lines with the same  
account information (i.e., same user name) but with different registrar and  
proxy IP addresses. This feature works with Registration, Subscription,  
and Notify processing. This feature also works with the following types  
of calls: incoming, outgoing, Broadsoft Shared Call Appearance (SCA),  
Bridged Line Appearance (BLA), conference, transfer, blind transfer.

Send Line Number in  
REGISTER Message  
sip send line  
Adds an "Aastra-Line:" header to the SIP  
REGISTER messages sent from the phone to  
the call server, where the value is the line  
number that is being registered.  
For more information about this parameter,  
see Chapter 6, the section, “MAC Address/  
Line Number in REGISTER Messages” on  
page 6-5.  
Session Timer  
sip session timer  
The time, in seconds, that the IP phone uses  
to send periodic re-INVITE requests to keep a  
session alive. The proxy uses these re-INVITE  
requests to maintain the status' of the  
connected sessions. See RFC4028 for details.  
Default is 0.  
For more information, see Chapter 4,  
“Advanced SIP Settings (optional)” on  
page 4-80.  
Timer 1 and Timer 2  
sip T1 timer  
sip T2 timer  
These timers are SIP transaction layer timers  
defined in RFC 3261. Timer 1 is an estimate,  
in milliseconds, of the round-trip time (RTT).  
Timer 2 represents the amount of time, in  
milliseconds, a non-INVITE server transaction  
takes to respond to a request.  
For more information, see Chapter 4,  
“Advanced SIP Settings (optional)” on  
page 4-80.  
Transaction Timer  
sip transaction timer  
The amount of time, in milliseconds that the  
phone allows the callserver (registrar/proxy) to  
respond to SIP messages that it sends. If the  
phone does not receive a response in the  
amount of time designated for this parameter,  
the phone assumes the message has timed  
out.

Description  
Transport Protocol  
sip transport protocol  
The protocol that the Real-Time Transport  
Protocol (RTP) port on the IP phone uses to  
send out SIP signaling packets.  
Notes:  
1. If you set the value of this parameter to 4  
(TLS), the phone checks to see if the “sips  
persistent tls” is enabled. If it is enabled, the  
phone uses Persistent TLS on the connection.  
If “sips persistent tls” is disabled, then the  
phone uses TLS on the connection. If TLS is  
used, you must specify the Root and  
Intermediate Certificates, the Local Certificate,  
the Private Key, and the Trusted Certificates.  
2. If the phone uses Persistent TLS, you  
MUST specify the Trusted Certificates; the  
Root and Intermediate Certificates, the Local  
Certificate, and the Private Key are optional.  
For more information, see Chapter 4,  
“Advanced SIP Settings (optional)” on  
page 4-80.  
Local SIP UDP/TCP Port  
sip local port  
Specifies the local source port (UDP/TCP)  
from which the phone sends SIP messages.  
Notes:  
1. It is recommended that you avoid the  
conflict RTP port range in case of a UDP  
transport.  
2. By default, the IP phones use symmetric  
UDP signaling for outgoing UDP SIP  
messages. When symmetric UDP is enabled,  
the IP phone generates and listens for UDP  
messages using port 5060.If symmetric UDP  
signaling is disabled, the phone sends from  
random ports but it listens on the configured  
SIP local port.  
For more information, see Chapter 4, “SIP and  
TLS Source Ports for NAT Traversal” on  
page 4-33.

Firmware Update Features  
The IP phone uses a TFTP, FTP, HTTP, or HTTPS server (depending on the  
protocol configured on the IP phone) to download configuration files and  
firmware.  
You can download the firmware stored on the configuration server in one of three  
ways:  
Manual firmware update using the Aastra Web UI (TFTP only).  
Manual update of firmware and configuration files (by restarting the phone  
via the IP phone UI or the Aastra Web UI).  
Automatic update of firmware, configuration files, or both at a specific time  
in a 24-hour period (via the Aastra Web UI or configuration files)

TLS Support  
The IP Phones support a transport protocol called Transport Layer Security  
(TLS) and Persistent TLS. TLS is a protocol that ensures communication  
privacy between the SIP phones and the Internet. TLS ensures that no third party  
may eavesdrop or tamper with any message. An Administrator can configure the  
following parameters for TLS Support.  
Parameter

IP Phone UI  
Parameter in  
Aastra Web UI  
Parameters in  
Configuration Files  
Description  
N/A  
Transport Protocol sip transport protocol  
Specifies the protocol that the RTP port on the  
IP phone uses to send out SIP signaling  
packets. Default is USP.  
Notes:  
1. If you set the value of this parameter to 4  
(TLS), the phone checks to see if the “sips  
persistent tls” is enabled. If it is enabled, the  
phone uses Persistent TLS on the connection.  
If “sips persistent tls” is disabled, then the  
phone uses TLS on the connection. If TLS is  
used, you must specify the Root and  
Intermediate Certificates, the Local Certificate,  
2. If the phone uses Persistent TLS, you  
MUST specify the Trusted Certificates; the  
Root and Intermediate Certificates, the Local  
Certificate, and the Private Key are optional.  
For more information, see Chapter 6, the  
section, “Transport Layer Security (TLS)” on  
page 6-26.

Description  
N/A  
N/A  
sips persistent tls  
Enables or disables the use of Persistent  
Transport Layer Security (TLS).  
Persistent TLS sets up the connection to the  
server once and re-uses that connection for all  
calls from the phone. The setup connection for  
Persistent TLS is established during the  
registration of the phone. If the phones are set  
to use Persistent TLS, and a call is made from  
the phone, this call and all subsequent calls  
use the same authenticated connection. This  
significantly reduces the delay time when  
placing a call.  
Notes:  
1. Persistent TLS requires the outbound  
proxy server and outbound proxy port  
parameters be configured in either the  
configuration files or the Aastra Web UI  
(Advanced Settings->Global SIP->Basic SIP  
Network Settings). There can be only one  
persistent TLS connection created per phone.  
The phone establishes the TLS connection to  
the configured outbound proxy.  
Persistent TLS, you must also specify the  
Trusted Certificate file to use. The Root and  
Intermediate Certificates, Local Certificate,  
and Private Key files are optional.

802.1x Support  
The IP phones support the IEEE 802.1x Protocol. The 802.1x Protocol is a  
standard for passing Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) over a wired or  
wireless Local Area Network (LAN).  
The 802.1x Protocol on the IP phone facilitates media-level access control, and  
offers the capability to permit or deny network connectivity, control LAN access,  
and apply traffic policy, based on user or endpoint identity. This feature supports  
both the EAP-MD5 and EAP-TLS Protocols.  
Note: If configuring 802.1x using the IP Phone UI, the certificates  
and private keys must already be configured and stored on the phone.  
Use the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI to load certificates  
and private keys.

Configuring Network and Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) Features  
Overview  
Overview  
An administrator can configure the IP Phone Network and SIP options from the  
phone UI, from the Aastra Web UI, or the configuration files. Administrator level  
options are password protected in both the IP phone UI and the Aastra Web UI.  
Note: An administrator has the option of enabling and disabling the use  
of password protection in the IP phone UI. This is configurable using the  
Appendix A, the section “Password Settings” on page A-14.  
The procedures in this section include configuring from the IP phone UI and the  
Aastra Web UI. To configure the IP phones using the configuration files, see  
Appendix A, “Configuration Parameters.”  
To configure the phone using the IP phone UI, you must enter an administrator  
password. To configure the phone using the Aastra Web UI, you must enter an  
administrator username and password.  
Note: In the IP phone UI, the default password is "22222". In the  
password is "22222".

This section describes the basic network settings on the IP phone which include  
configuring for:  
DHCP  
IP Address (of phone)  
Subnet Mask (of phone)  
Gateway  
Primary DNS  
Secondary DNS  
LAN Port

Basic Network Settings  
DHCP  
The IP phone is capable of querying a DHCP server, allowing a network  
administrator a centralized and automated method of configuring various network  
parameters for the phone. If DHCP is enabled, the IP phone requests the following  
network information:  
Subnet Mask  
Gateway (i.e. router)  
Domain Name Server (DNS)  
Network Time Protocol Server  
IP Address  
TFTP Server  
TFTP Path  
FTP Server

The network administrator chooses which of these parameters (if any) are  
supplied to the IP phone by the DHCP server. The administrator must configure  
the phone manually to provide any required network parameters not supplied by  
the DHCP server.  
DHCP Options 60, 66, and 43 Server Configurations  
Option 66  
The IP Phones support download protocols according to RFC2131 and RFC1541  
(TFTP, FTP, HTTP,. HTTPS) to support DHCP option 66. Option 66 is part of the  
DHCP Offer message that the DHCP server generates to tell the phone which  
configuration server it should use to download new firmware and configuration  
files.  
For DHCP to automatically populate the IP address or domain name for the  
servers, your DHCP server must support Option 66. Option 66 is responsible for  
forwarding the server’s IP address or domain name to the phone automatically. If  
your DHCP server does not support Option 66, you must manually enter the IP  
address or domain name for your applicable configuration server into your IP  
phone configuration.  
Options 60 and 43  
The Aastra phones also support Option 60 and Option 43 as per RFC 2132.  
Option 60 (Vendor Class Identifier) provides the DHCP server with a unique  
identifier for each phone model. This enables a system administrator to send the  
phone a customized Server Configuration in option 43.

The System administrator can use the Vendor Class Identifier to send the phone a  
customized Server Configuration in option 43 (Vendor-Specific information).  
Note: If Aastra IP Phones receive the server configuration from both  
DHCP Option 66 and DHCP Option 43, then Option 43 takes precedence  
over Option 66.  
Using Option 43 to Customize the IP Phone  
A System Administrator can customize the IP Phone(s) in the network by entering  
a text string in the phone’s configuration files. The following is an Option 43  
example using Linux.  
On the startup of the phones, when the DHCP server receives the request with the  
information in this example, it allows the 57i phones to use FTP and the 57i CT  
phones to use TFTP from the same server.

Using Option 12 Hostname on the IP Phone  
If you set the phone to use DHCP Option 12, the phone automatically sends this  
option to the configuration server. This option specifies the hostname (name of the  
client). The name may or may not be qualified with the local domain name (based  
on RFC 2132). See RFC 1035 for character set restrictions.  
Notes:  
1.  
The hostname of [<model><MAC address>] automatically  
populates the field on initial startup of the phone. For example, for a 53i,  
the “Hostname” field is automatically populated as “53i00085D164435”,  
where the model number is “53i” and the MAC address is  
“00085D164435”.  
2.  
If the configuration server sends the hostname back to the phone in  
a DHCP Reply Packet, the hostname is ignored.  
An Administrator can change the “Hostname” for the DHCP Option 12 via the  
configuration files, the IP Phone UI, and the Aastra Web UI.

Using Option 77 User Class on the IP Phone  
DHCP Option 77 User Class is sent in DHCP request packets from the phone to  
the configuration server. This Option 77 defines specific User Class identifiers to  
convey information about a phone’s software configuration or about its user's  
preferences. For example, you can use the User Class option to configure all  
phones in the Accounting Department with different user preferences than the  
phones in the Marketing Department. A DHCP server uses the User Class option  
to choose the address pool for which it allocates an address from, and/or to select  
any other configuration option.  
Notes:  
1.  
If the User Class is not specified (left blank) in the DHCP request  
packet, the phone does not send the User Class DHCP Option 77.  
2.  
3.  
Multiple User Classes inside a DHCP Option 77 are not supported.  
DHCP Option 77 may affect the precedence of DHCP Options,  
dependent on the DHCP Server.

Using Options 159 and 160 on the IP Phone  
In addition to DHCP options 43 and 66 already supported on the IP Phones, the  
phones also support DHCP Options 159 and 160. The IP Phones use the following  
order of precedence when deriving the configuration server parameters: 43, 160,  
159, 66.  
In addition, an administrator can override this order of precedence by setting a  
configuration parameter called, dhcp config option override. You can set this  
parameter via the configuration files, IP Phone UI, or the Aastra Web UI. Setting  
this parameter results in the phone only using the chosen DHCP option and  
ignoring the other options.  
Warning: Administrators should review the updated IP phone DHCP  
option precedence order and configuration options to avoid potential  
impact to existing Aastra IP phone deployments.

Multiple DHCP Servers  
The IP Phones can receive messages from multiple DHCP servers.  
After the phone receives its first DHCP message, it listens for a specific time  
period, for more DHCP messages. If the first DHCP offer contains configuration  
server information (Options 43, 66, 159 or 160), then the phone times out and  
continues using the first DHCP offer, without listening for more DHCP offers. If  
the first DHCP message contains no configuration server information, the phone  
continues to listen for other DHCP messages. If the second DHCP message  
contains configuration server information and other conditions, the phone chooses  
the second DHCP message over the initial DHCP message.  
Note: If the DHCP Option Override parameter is enabled with a value  
(Option 43, Option 66, Option 159, or Option 160), the phone checks the  
override option setting before timing out.  
IMPORTANT NOTE  
Users currently using multiple DHCP servers on a single network could be  
affected by this feature.

Configuring LAN and PC Port Negotiation  
Ethernet is the computer networking technology for local area networks (LANs).  
You use the LAN Port to connect to a LAN using a twisted pair 10BASE-T cable  
to transmit 10BASE-T Ethernet. You use the PC Port to connect to the  
configuration server (your PC).  
There are two Ethernet ports on the rear of the IP phones: LAN Port and PC Port.  
Using the Aastra Web UI, you can select the type of transmission you want these  
ports to use to communicate over the LAN. The IP phones support each of the  
following methods of transmission:  
Auto-negotiation  
Half-duplex (10Mbps or 100 Mbps)  
Full-duplex (10Mbps or 100Mbps)  
Auto-negotiation  
Auto-negotiation is when two connected devices choose common transmission  
parameters. In the auto-negotiation process, the connected devices share their  
speed and duplex capabilities and connect at the highest common denominator  
(HCD). Auto-negotiation can be used by devices that are capable of different  
transmission rates (such as 10Mbit/sec and 100Mbit/sec), different duplex modes  
(half duplex and full duplex) and/or different standards at the same speed. You can  
set the LAN and PC Ports on the IP phones to auto-negotiate during transmission.  
Half-Duplex (10Mbps or 100Mbps)  
Half-duplex data transmission means that data can be transmitted in both  
directions on a signal carrier, but not at the same time. For example, on a LAN  
using a technology that has half-duplex transmission, one device can send data on  
the line and then immediately receive data on the line from the same direction in  
which data was just transmitted. Half-duplex transmission implies a bidirectional  
line (one that can carry data in both directions). On the IP phones, you can set the  
half-duplex transmission to transmit in 10Mbps or in 100Mbps.

You can set advanced network settings on the IP phone such as, Network Address  
Translation (NAT), Nortel NAT, Network Time Protocol (NTP) Time Servers,  
Virtual LAN (VLAN), and Quality of Service (QoS), and Universal Plug and Play

Network Address Translation (NAT)  
The protocols used by all IP phones do not interoperate completely with Network  
Address Translation (NAT). For the IP Phones, specific configuration parameters  
allow the phone to operate while connected to a network device that enforces  
NAT. The following is a sample network using a NAT proxy and relevant IP  
phone configuration parameters.

Nortel Proxy/Registrar  
The phone at IP address 10.10.10.10 is configured to register with the proxy at  
63.251.195.10. Because it is a Nortel proxy, the configuration must additionally  
include the "sip nortel nat support" and "sip nortel nat timer" settings, telling the  
firmware to enhance the protocols with Nortel specific content.  
Note: This IP phone uses RTP port 3000 (the default value) since an RTP  
port was not explicitly configured.  
SBC or ALG proxy/registrar  
The phone at IP address 10.10.10.20 is configured to register with the proxy at  
63.251.195.20. Because the proxy/registrar has session border control (SBC) or  
application layer gateway (ALG) functionality, no additional IP phone  
configuration is required.  
Other proxy/registrars  
The phone at IP address 10.10.10.30 is configured to register with the proxy at  
63.251.195.30. Because this proxy/registrar is not a Nortel proxy and has no SBC  
or ALG functionality, the configuration must additionally include the "sip nat ip"  
and "sip nat port" settings that contain the public ip address of the NAT router and  
the port used for call signaling messages. This information is embedded in  
protocol messages to allow the proxy/registrar to reach the IP phone on the NAT  
router private network.  
NAT router configuration  
You must configure the NAT router to allow signaling or media packets  
containing the various UDP port values to flow between the private and public  
networks that are separated by the NAT router. In the sample network, the NAT  
router must not filter packets using ports 3000, 5060, 6060, 16420, and 16430.

Nortel Networks NAT  
Nortel Networks provides a proprietary solution to support connectivity to their  
proxies from phones placed behind devices (such as routers or firewalls) that use  
NAT. Nortel uses the SIP ping request/reply between the Nortel proxy and the  
phone in order to keep the connection through the router or firewall active. A SIP  
Nortel NAT timer is the interval, in seconds (default is 60), that the phone sends  
SIP ping requests to the Nortel proxy.  
When you use NAT in your network, a network device (usually a router) provides  
a “firewall” division between the public network (usually the Internet) and the  
private network, to which the IP Phones are connected. The firewall protects the  
network by translating port numbers within packets between the public and  
private networks. When using NAT, and an RTP packet arrives at the public side  
of the firewall, it is expected to have the NAT RTP port within the packet. If the  
packet contains the proper port number, the firewall changes the NAT RTP port  
number in the packet to the RTP port number that the phone recognizes, and then  
forwards it onto the private network. Often the router/firewall automatically  
discovers these various port numbers and other information concerning public and  
private sides of the network with the use of the Universal Plug and Play (UPnP)  
Protocol between the phone and the router/firewall.  
Configuring Nortel NAT (optional)  
You can configure Nortel NAT using the configuration files, the IP phone UI, or  
Configuration Files  
For specific parameters you can set in the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section, “Network  
Address Translation (NAT) Settings” on page A-27.

SIP and TLS Source Ports for NAT Traversal  
A System Administrator can configure the SIP and TLS source ports on the IP  
Phone. Previously, the IP phone used default values (5060 for UDP/TCP and 5061  
for TLS). The two new parameters for configuring the SIP and TLS source ports  
are:  
sip local port  
sip local tls port  
You can configure the SIP and TLS source ports using the configuration files or  
the Aastra Web UI. After configuring these parameters, you must reboot the  
phone.  
If NAT is disabled, the port number also shows in the VIA and Contact SIP  
headers.  
If you enable NAT, the phone uses the NAT port number (and NAT IP address) in  
the Via and Contact SIP headers of SIP messages, but still use the configured  
source port.  
Note: By default, the IP phones use symmetric UDP signaling for  
outgoing UDP SIP messages. When symmetric UDP is enabled, the IP  
phone generates and listens for UDP messages using port 5060.If  
symmetric UDP signaling is disabled, the phone sends from random  
ports but it listens on the configured SIP local port.

HTTPS Client/Server Configuration  
HTTPS is a Web protocol that encrypts and decrypts user page requests as well as  
the pages that are returned by the Web server. HTTPS uses Secure Socket Layer  
(SSL) or Transport Layer Security (TLS) as a sublayer under its regular HTTP  
application layering. SSL is a commonly-used protocol for managing the  
security of a message transmission on the Internet. It uses a 40-bit key size  
for the RC4 stream encryption algorithm, which is considered an adequate degree  
of encryption for commercial exchange. TLS is a protocol that ensures privacy  
between communicating applications and their users on the Internet. When a  
server and client communicate, TLS ensures that no third party may eavesdrop or  
tamper with any message. TLS is the successor to SSL.  
Note: HTTPS uses port 443 instead of HTTP port 80 in its interactions  
with the TCP/IP lower layer.  
When an HTTPS client opens and closes its TCP socket, the SSL software  
respectively handshakes upon opening and disconnects upon closing from the  
HTTPS server. The main HTTPS client functions are:  
Downloading of configuration files and firmware images.  
Downloading of script files based on an “HTTPS://” URL supplied by a  
softkey definition.

HTTPS Server Certificate Validation  
The HTTPS client on the IP Phones support validation of HTTPS certificates.  
This feature supports the following:  
Verisign, GeoTrust, and Thawte signed certificates  
User-provided certificates  
Checking of hostnames  
Checking of certificate expiration  
Ability to disable any or all of the validation steps  
Phone displays a message when a certificate is rejected (except on check-sync  
operations)  
All validation options are enabled by default.  
Certificate Management  
Aastra Provided Certificates  
The phones come with root certificates from Verisign, GeoTrust, and Thawte  
pre-loaded.  
User Provided Certificates  
The administrator has the option to upload their own certificates onto the phone.  
The phone downloads these certificates in a file of .PEM format during boot time  
after configuration downloads. The user-provided certificates are saved on the  
phone between firmware upgrades but are deleted during a factory default. The  
download of the User-provided certificates are based on a filename specified in  
the configuration parameter, https user certificates (Trusted Certificates  
Filename in the Aastra Web UI; User-provided certificates are not configurable  
via the IP Phone UI).  
Note: Certificates that are signed by providers other than Verisign,  
GeoTrust or Thwate do not verify on the phone by default. The user can  
overcome this by adding the root certificate of their certificate provider to  
the use-provided certificate .PEM file.

Certificate Validation  
Certificate validation is enabled by default. Validation occurs by checking that the  
certificates are well formed and signed by one of the certificates in the trusted  
certificate set. It then checks the expiration date on the certificate, and finally,  
compares the name in the certificate with the address for which it was connected.  
If any of these validation steps fail, the connection is rejected. Certificate  
validation is controlled by three parameters which you can configure via the  
configuration files, the IP Phone UI, or the Aastra Web UI:  
https validate certificates - Enables/disables validation  
https validate hostname - Enables/disables the checking of the certificate  
commonName against the server name.

Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) (for remote phones)  
UPnP is a standard that uses Internet protocols to enable devices to be plugged  
into a network and automatically know about each other. With UPnP, when a user  
plugs a device into the network, the device configures itself, acquires a TCP IP  
address, and uses a discovery protocol based on the Internet's HTTP or HTTPS  
URL to announce its presence on the network to other devices.  
This method of device discovery on a network is called “Universal Plug and Play”  
or UPnP. If you enable UPnP, and the phone is discovered on the network, port  
mappings are set up between the phone and the Internet Gateway Device (IGD).  
The phone controls the opening, closing, and polling of ports on the IGD. HTTP  
and SIP use a single port each. RTP/RTCP uses a range of ports.  
The UPnP manager performs its functions when you set the phone to remote  
mode. When you switch the phone back to local mode, the UPnP manager  
removes any open port mappings and shuts itself down. If you boot the phone in  
remote mode, the UPnP manager initializes after the phone obtains an IP address  
and before a SIP registration is sent out. If you want to manually configure your  
NAT, you must disable UPnP on the remote mode phone.  
Note: Enabling UPnP allows the IP phones to access the Internet even if  
a firewall has been set on the IGD. This allows the phone to send and  
receive SIP calls and XML pushes without interruption. UPnP does not  
work with multiple firewalls.  
You can enable UPnP on remote IP phones using the configuration files, the IP  
Phone UI, or the Aastra Web UI. Using the configuration files, you can enable  
UPnP using the following parameters:  
upnp manager  
upnp gateway  
sip nat rtp port  
The “upnp manager” parameter enables or disables UPnP. The “upnp gateway”  
parameter is the IP address or qualified domain name of the Internet gateway or  
router that stores the port mappings. In the event a phone using UPnP is rebooted,  
it will still have the previously set port mappings on the gateway. The “sip nat rtp  
port” parameter specifies the RTP port range on the gateway.

Virtual LAN (optional)  
Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) is a feature on the IP phone that allows for  
multiple logical Ethernet interfaces to send outgoing RTP packets over a single  
physical Ethernet as described in IEEE Std 802.3. On the IP phone, you configure  
a VLAN ID that associates with the physical Ethernet port.  
By configuring specific VLAN parameters, the IP phones have the capability of  
adding and removing tags, and processing the ID and priority information  
contained within the tag.  
Note: All latest VLAN functionality is backwards compatible with IP  
Phone Releases 1.3 and 1.3.1.  
VLAN on the IP phones is disabled by default. When you enable VLAN, the IP  
phone provides defaults for all VLAN parameters. If you choose to change these  
parameters, you can configure them using the configuration files, the IP Phone UI,  
or the Aastra Web UI.  
The following sections describe the VLAN features you can configure on the IP  
phones.  
Type of Service (ToS), Quality of Service (QoS), and DiffServ QoS  
ToS is an octet as a field in the standard IP header. It is used to classify the traffic  
of the different QoSs.  
QoS provides service differentiation between IP packets in the network. This  
service differentiation is noticeable during periods of network congestion (for  
example, in case of contention for resources) and results in different levels of  
network performance.  
Port 0 is the Ethernet LAN Port connected to the network. Port 1 is the Ethernet  
PC Port used for passthrough to a PC.  
Differentiated Service (DiffServ) QoS is class-based where some classes of traffic  
receive preferential handling over other traffic classes.  
The Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) value is stored in the first six bits  
of the ToS field. Each DSCP specifies a particular per-hop behavior that is  
applied to a packet.

"vlan id port 1" parameters.  
2. When the LAN Port (vlan id) and the PC Port (vlan id port 1)  
parameters have the same value, VLAN functionality is compatible with  
earlier IP phone software releases.  
If you set the PC Port (vlan id port 1) to 4095, all untagged packets are  
sent to this port. For configuring this feature via the Phone UI and the  
Aastra Web UI, see “Configuring VLAN (optional)” on page 4-56. For

DSCP Range/VLAN Priority Mapping  
DSCP bits in the ToS field of the IP header are set for RTP, RTCP, and SIP packets  
using either the default values or the values configured via the "tos sip", "tos rtp",  
and "tos rtcp" parameters.  
When the VLAN global configuration parameter, "tagging enabled" is set to 1,  
VLAN priority for IP packets is mapped to the DSCP value instead of a single  
priority for all packets. An administrator can also configure VLAN priority for  
non-IP packets using the "priority non-ip" parameter.  
Since the default DSCP settings for SIP, RTP, and RTCP are 26, 46, and 46  
respectively, this results in corresponding default VLAN priorities of 3 for SIP, 4  
for RTP, and 4 for RTCP (based on the settings in the table “DSCP Range/VLAN  
Priority” on page 4-52).  
You can change the default parameters by modifying just the DSCP values, just  
the VLAN priority values, or by modifying all values.  
The following table shows the DSCP range/VLAN priority mapping.

Configuring Network and Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) Features  
Network Settings  
RPORT  
The Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) operates over UDP and TCP. When used  
with UDP, responses to requests are returned to the source address from which the  
request came, and returned to the port written into the topmost “Via” header of the  
request. However, this behavior is not desirable when the client is behind a  
Network Address Translation (NAT) or firewall.  
A parameter created for the “Via” header called “Rport” in RFC 3581, allows a  
client to request that the server send the response back to the source IP address  
and the port from which the request came.  
When you enable “Rport, the phone always uses symmetric signaling (listens on  
the port used for sending requests).  
An Administrator can configure “Rport” using the configuration files or the  
Aastra Web UI.  
Configuring Rport Using the Configuration Files  
Use the following parameter to configure Rport on your phone.  
Configuration Files  
For specific parameters you can set in the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section, “Rport Setting” on

Global SIP Settings  
Global SIP Settings  
Description  
The IP phone uses the information in the Global Session Initiation Protocol (SIP)  
settings to register at the IP PBX.  
The IP phone configuration defines network and user account parameters that  
apply globally to all SIP lines. Since not all SIP lines are necessarily hosted using  
the same IP-PBX/server or user account, additional sets of per-line parameters  
can also be defined for network and user account.  
You configure and modify these parameters and associated values using the  
configuration files, the IP phone UI, or the Aastra Web UI. The Aastra Web UI  
and configuration file methods configure global and per-line SIP settings on the IP  
phone. The IP phone UI configures global SIP settings only.  
On the IP Phones, you can configure Basic and Advanced SIP Settings. The Basic  
SIP Settings include authentication and network settings. The Advanced SIP  
Settings include other features you can configure on the IP Phone.  
For more information about Basic SIP Settings (for authentication and network),  
see “Basic SIP Settings” on page 4-67.  
For more information bout Advanced SIP Settings, see “Advanced SIP Settings  
(optional)” on page 4-80.

Configuring Network and Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) Features  
Global SIP Settings  
Basic SIP Settings  
Specific parameters are configurable on a global and per-line basis. You can also  
configure specific parameters using the IP Phone UI, the Aastra Web UI, or the  
configuration files. If you have a proxy server or have a SIP registrar present at a  
different location than the PBX server, the SIP parameters may need to be  
changed.  
The IP phones allow you to define different SIP lines with the same account  
information (i.e., same user name) but with different registrar and proxy IP  
addresses. This feature works with Registration, Subscription, and Notify  
processing. This feature also works with the following types of calls: incomint,  
outgoing, Broadsoft Shared Call Appearance (SCA), Bridged Line Appearance  
(BLA), conference, transfer, blind transfer.  
The following tables identify the SIP global and per-line, authentication and

Configuring Network and Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) Features  
Global SIP Settings  
Note: The "sip vmail" and "sip lineN vmail" parameters are configurable  
using the configuration files only. To configure voicemail see Chapter 5,  
the section, Voicemail (9480i, 9480i CT, 55i, 57i, and 57i CT only)” on  
page 5-293.  
Specific sets of SIP parameters are inter-dependent with each other. To prevent  
conflicting parameter values from being applied, per-line values always take  
precedence over the corresponding set of global values.  
For example, if a parameter value is configured for one of the per-line sets, all  
parameters from that set are applied and all parameters from the corresponding  
global section are ignored, even if some of the parameters within the global set are  
not defined in the per-line set.  
SIP Precedence Example  
The following example shows the SIP proxy feature and example schema for  
storage and parsing of the SIP configuration parameters.  
The following SIP configuration is assumed:  
# SIP network block  
sip proxy ip: 10.30.11.154  
sip proxy port: 5060  
sip registrar ip: 10.44.122.37  
sip registrar port: 4020  
sip line3 proxy ip: siparator.vonage.com  
sip line3 proxy port: 0

IP Phone Administrator Guide  
Global SIP Settings  
Line3 specifies per-line values for proxy IP address and proxy port, so the phone  
uses those parameter values for SIP calls made on that line. However, because  
those parameters are part of the SIP network block, the phone does not apply any  
of the global SIP network block parameters. So even though the global parameters  
configure a SIP registrar, Line3 on the phone ignores all global network block  
parameters. Since line3 does not contain a per-line SIP registrar entry, the phone  
does not use a registrar for that line.  
Note: Global SIP parameters apply to all lines unless overridden by a  
per-line configuration.  
Per-line settings are configurable for lines 1 through 7.

Configuring Network and Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) Features  
Global SIP Settings  
Backup Proxy/Registrar Support  
The IP phones support a backup SIP proxy and backup SIP registrar feature. If  
the primary server is unavailable, the phone automatically switches to the backup  
server allowing the user's phone to remain in service.  
How it Works  
All SIP registration messages are sent to the primary registrar first. If the server is  
unavailable, then a new registration request is sent to the backup registrar. This  
also applies to registration renewal messages, which try the primary server before  
the backup.  
Similarly, any outgoing calls attempt to use the primary proxy first, then the  
backup if necessary. In addition, subscriptions for BLF, BLA, and explicit MWI  
can also use the backup proxy when the primary fails. Outgoing calls and the  
previously mentioned subscriptions behave the same as registrations, where the  
primary proxy is tried before the backup.  
You can configure the backup SIP proxy on a global or per-line basis via the  
configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.  
SIP Server (SRV) Lookup  
The SIP SRV Lookup feature allows you to configure the IP phone to perform a  
DNS server lookup on a SIP proxy, a SIP registrar, or a SIP outbound proxy.  
The IP phone performs an SRV lookup when the IP address of the server is FQDN  
and the corresponding port is 0.  
For example, if the phone is configured with sip proxy ip of "ana.aastra.com",  
and sip proxy port of "0", the SRV lookup may return multiple servers, based on  
the priorities if one is selected as primary and others are selected as secondary.  
However, if the IP address is an FQDN and the corresponding server port is  
non-zero, then the phone performs a DNS "A" Name Query to resolve the FQDN  
into dot notation form.  
If the IP address is a valid dot notation and the port is zero, then a default port  
5060 is used.

Configuring Network and Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) Features  
Global SIP Settings  
Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP) Settings  
Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP) is used as the bearer path for voice packets  
sent over the IP network. Information in the RTP header tells the receiver how to  
reconstruct the data and describes how the bit streams are packetized (i.e. which  
codec is in use). Real-time Transport Control Protocol (RTCP) allows endpoints  
to monitor packet delivery, detect and compensate for any packet loss in the  
network. Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) and H.323 both use RTP and RTCP for  
the media stream, with User Datagram Protocol (UDP) as the transport layer  
encapsulation protocol.  
Note: If RFC2833 relay of DTMF tones is configured, it is sent on the  
same port as the RTP voice packets. The phones support decoding and  
playing out DTMF tones sent in SIP INFO requests. The following  
DTMF tones are supported:  
• Support signals 0-9, #, *  
• Support durations up to 5 seconds  
You can set the following parameters for RTP on the IP Phones:

IP Phone Administrator Guide  
Global SIP Settings  
RTP Port  
RTP is described in RFC1889. The UDP port used for RTP streams is traditionally  
an even-numbered port, and the RTCP control is on the next port up. A phone call  
therefore uses one pair of ports for each media stream.  
The RTP port is assigned to the first line on the phone, and is then incremented for  
each subsequent line available within the phone to provided each line a unique  
RTP port for its own use.  
On the IP phone, the initial port used as the starting point for RTP/RTCP port  
allocation can be configured using "RTP Port Base". The default RTP base port  
on the IP phones is 3000.  
For example, if the RTP base port value is 5000, the first voice patch sends RTP  
on port 5000 and RTCP on port 5001. Additional calls would then use ports 5002,  
5003, etc.  
You can configure the RTP port on a global-basis only, using the configuration  
files, the IP Phone UI, or the Aastra Web UI.  
Basic Codecs (G.711 u-Law, G.711 a-Law, G.729)  
CODEC is an acronym for COmpress-DECompress. It consists of a set of  
instructions that together implement one or more algorithms. In the case of IP  
telephony, these algorithms are used to compress the sampled speech data, to  
decrease the content's file size and bit-rate (the amount of network bandwidth in  
kilobits per second) required to transfer the audio. With smaller file sizes and  
lower bit rates, the network equipment can store and stream digital media content  
over a network more easily.  
Aastra IP phones support the International Telecommunications Union (ITU)  
transmission standards for the following CODECs:  
Waveform CODECs: G.711 pulse code modulation (PCM) with a-Law or  
u-Law companding  
Parametric CODEC: G.729a conjugate structure - algebraic code excited  
linear prediction (CS_ACELP).

You can enable the IP phones to use a default "basic codec" set, which consists of  
the set of codecs and packet sizes shown above.  
Or you can instead configure a custom set of codecs and attributes instead of using  
the defaults.  
Note: The basic and custom codec parameters apply to all calls, and are  
configured on a global-basis only using the configuration files or the  
Aastra Web UI.  
Customized Codec Preference List  
You can also configure the IP phones to use preferred Codecs. To do this, you  
must enter the payload value (payload), the packetization time in milliseconds  
(ptime), and enable or disable silence suppression (silsupp).  
Payload is the codec type to be used. This represents the data format carried  
within the RTP packets to the end user at the destination. You can enter payload  
values for G.711 a-law, G.711 u-law, and G.729a.  
Ptime (packetization time) is a measurement of the duration of PCM data within  
each RTP packet sent to the destination, and hence defines how much network  
bandwidth is used for transfer of the RTP stream. You enter the ptime values for  
the customized Codec list in milliseconds. (See table below).

Global SIP Settings  
Silsupp is used to enable or disable silence suppression. Voice Activity Detection  
(VAD) on the IP phones is used to determine whether each individual packet  
contains useful speech data. Enabling silsupp results in decreased network  
bandwidth, by avoiding sending RTP packets for any frame where no voice  
energy was detected by the VAD.  
You must enter the values for this feature in list form as shown in the following  
example:  
payload=8;ptime=10;silsupp=on,payload=0;ptime=10;silsupp=off  
The valid values for creating a Codec preference list are as follows.

Out-of-Band DTMF  
The IP phones support out-of-band Dual-Tone Multifrequency (DTMF) mode  
according to RFC2833. In the Aastra Web UI, you can enable or disable this  
feature as required. The "out-of-band DTMF" is enabled by default.  
In out-of-band mode, the DTMF audio is automatically clamped (muted) and  
DTMF digits are not sent in the RTP packets.  
You can configure out-of-band DTMF on a global-basis using the configuration  
files or the Aastra Web UI.

Configuring Network and Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) Features  
Global SIP Settings  
DTMF Method  
A feature on the IP phone allows you to select the DTMF method that the phone  
uses to send DTMF digits from the IP phone via INFO messages. You can set the  
DTMF method as Real-Time Transport Protocol (RTP), SIP info, or both.  
You can configure the DTMF method on a global or per-line basis using the  
configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.  
RTP Encryption  
The IP Phones include support for Secure Real-time Transfer Protocol (SRTP),  
using Session Description Protocol Security (SDES) key negotiation, for  
encryption and authentication of RTP/RTCP messages sent and received by the  
Aastra IP phones on your network.  
As administrator, you specify the global SRTP setting for all lines on the IP  
phone. You can choose among three levels of SRTP encryption, as follows:  
SRTP Disabled (default): IP phone generates and receives nonsecured RTP  
calls. If the IP phone gets called from SRTP enabled phone, it ignores SRTP  
tries to answer the call using RTP. If the receiving phone has SRTP only  
enabled, the call fails; however, if it has SRTP preferred enabled, it will accept  
RTP call.  
SRTP Preferred: IP phone generates RTP secured calls, and accepts both  
secured and non-secured RTP calls. If the receiving phone is not SRTP  
enabled, it sends non-secured RTP calls instead.  
SRTP Only: IP phone generates and accepts RTP secured calls only; all other  
calls are rejected (fail).  
You can override the global setting as necessary, configuring SRTP support on a  
per-line basis. This allows IP phone users to have both secured and unsecured  
lines operating on the same phone.

IP Phone Administrator Guide  
Global SIP Settings  
If an SRTP enabled IP phone initiates a call, and the receiving phone is also SRTP  
enabled, the IP Phone UI displays a “lock” icon, indicating that the call is secure.  
If the receiving phone does not support SRTP, the IP phone will send unsecured  
RTP messages instead of SRTP encrypted messages. However in this case, the IP  
Phone UI does not display the lock icon - indicating a non-secure call.  
Note: If you enable SRTP, then you should also enable Transport Layer  
Security (TLS). This prevents capture of the key used for SRTP  
encryption. To enable TLC, set the Transport Protocol parameter  
(located on the Global SIP Settings menu) to TLS.  
You can configure SRTP on a global or per-line basis using the configuration files  
or the Aastra Web UI.  
Silence Suppression  
In IP telephony, silence on a line (lack of voice) uses up bandwidth when sending  
voice over a packet-switched system. Silence suppression is encoding that starts  
and stops the times of silence in order to eliminate that wasted bandwidth.  
Silence suppression is enabled by default on the IP phones. The phone negotiates  
whether or not to use silence suppression. Disabling this feature forces the phone  
to ignore any negotiated value.  
You can configure silence suppression on a global-basis using the configuration  
files or the Aastra Web UI.

Enter an RTP Port Base in the RTP Port field. Default is 3000.  
The RTP Port indicates the port through which the RTP packets are sent. This value must specify the  
beginning of the RTP port range on the gateway or router. The RTP port is used for sending DTMF  
tones and for the audio stream. Your network administrator may close some ports for security  
reasons. You may want to use this parameter to send RTP data using a different port.  
Note: The phones support decoding and playing out DTMF tones sent in SIP INFO requests. The  
following DTMF tones are supported:  
Support signals 0-9, #, *  
Support durations up to 5 seconds

Configuring Network and Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) Features  
Global SIP Settings  
Autodial Settings  
The IP phones include a feature called “Autodial”. When you configure Autodial  
on an IP phone, the phone automatically dials a preconfigured number whenever  
it is off-hook. Depending on the configuration you specify, the Autodial functions  
as either a “hotline”, or as a “warmline,” as follows:  
Hotline (default): The IP phone immediately dials a preconfigured number  
when you lift the handset.  
Warmline: The IP phone waits for a specified amount of time after you lift  
the handset before dialing a preconfigured number. If you do not dial a  
number within the time allotted, then the IP phone begins to dial the number.  
By default, the Autodial feature functions as a hotline. If you want Autodial to  
function as a warmline, you can use the Autodial “time-out” parameter to specify  
the length of time (in seconds) the IP phone waits before dialing a preconfigured  
number.  
As administrator, you configure Autodial globally, or on a per-line basis, for an IP  
phone. The line setting overrides the global setting. For example, you can disable  
Autodial on a specific line simply by setting the line’s autodial number parameter  
to empty (blank).  
Note: IMPORTANT INFORMATION before configuring Autodial on  
your IP phone:  
Any speeddial numbers that you configure on an IP phone are not  
affected by autodial settings.  
If you configure autodial on your IP phone, any lines that function as  
hotlines do not accept conference calls, transferred calls, and/or  
intercom calls.

Administrator Passwords  
An administrator can change the administrator passwords on the phone using the  
configuration files only.  
An administrator can also assign a password for using the Options key on the IP  
phone. You turn this feature on and off by entering the "options password  
enabled" parameter followed by a valid value in the configuration files. Valid  
values are 0 (false; Options key not password protected), or 1 (true; Options key  
password protected). If this parameter is set to 1, a user has to enter a password at  
the IP phone UI. If the password is entered correctly, the user is allowed to gain  
access to the Options Menu and no more password prompts display for other  
password protected screens. If the user fails to enter the correct password in three  
attempts, access to the Options Menu is denied and the IP phone returns to the idle  
screen.  
Procedure  
Use the following procedure to change the administrator password.  
Configuration Files  
For specific parameters you can set in the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section, “Password  
Settings” on page A-14.

Defining an Emergency Dial Plan  
Public telephone networks in countries around the world have a single emergency  
telephone number (emergency services number), that allows a caller to contact  
local emergency services for assistance when required. The emergency telephone  
number may differ from country to country. It is typically a three-digit number so  
that it can be easily remembered and dialed quickly. Some countries have a  
different emergency number for each of the different emergency services.  
You can specify the digits to dial on the IP phone for contacting emergency  
services. Once you specify the emergency number(s) on the phone, you can dial  
those numbers directly on the dial pad when required and the phone automatically  
dials to those emergency services.  
Note: Contact your local phone service provider for available emergency  
numbers in your area.  
The following table describes the default emergency numbers on the IP phones.  
Emergency Number  
Description  
911  
999  
112  
A United States emergency number  
A United Kingdom emergency number  
An international emergency telephone  
number for GSM mobile phone networks.  
In all European Union countries it is also the  
emergency telephone number for both  
mobile and fixed-line telephones.  
110  
A police and/or fire emergency number in  
Asia, Europe, Middle East, and South  
America.  
You can set the emergency dial plan via the configuration files or the Aastra Web  
UI.

Daylight Savings Time (DST) Information  
The Aastra IP Phones incorporate the federally mandated DST observance  
change. This change became affective starting in 2007.  
The US has made a change to its daylight savings time observance starting in  
2007. The Energy Policy Act of 2005 mandates that DST will now begin at 2:00  
A.M. on the second Sunday in March and revert to Standard time on the first  
Sunday in November.  
Note: In previous years, the DST began on the first Sunday of April and  
ended on the first Sunday of October.  
The changes to daylight savings time applies to the U.S. and Canada, but may  
impact other countries outside North America.

Locking IP Phone Keys  
The IP phones allow you to lock or unlock programmable keys, softkeys, hard  
keys, cordless handset keys, and expansion keys (for expansion modules). When  
key locking is enabled, the phone uses the server settings and ignores any  
previous local configuration. A user cannot override the configuration of a locked  
key.  
You can lock and unlock keys using the configuration files, the IP Phone UI, or  
the Aastra Web UI. When viewing the locked key via the Aastra Web UI, the key  
is grayed out (disabled) and cannot be changed. Locking is dynamic for XML  
pushes.  
You use the following “locking” parameters in the configuration files to lock the

Operational Features  
If a System Administrator unlocks the SAVE and DELETE keys, these keys can  
be configured with the same functions that are available for the other  
programmable keys. Only the System Administrator can unlock these keys.  
The Save key allows you to save entries to the Directory and perform a Save-To  
from the Callers List. It also allows you to save speeddial information to a  
programmable key. You can also use the Save key while using specific XML  
applications.  
The Delete key allows you to remove entries from the Directory List and Callers  
List. (Must enter the Directory or Callers list and select an entry, then press twice  
to delete entry).  
By default, the Save and Delete keys are locked so that a user can use them for  
saving and deleting only. An Administrator can unlock these keys using the  
configuration files, allowing the keys to be programmed with other functions if  
required. An Administrator can use the following parameters in the configuration  
file to lock and unlock the Save and Delete keys:  
• prgkey1 locked  
• prgkey2 locked  
The value of "0" unlocks the keys, and the value of "1" locks the keys. The default  
is "1" (lock).  
The following is an example of unlocking the Save and Delete keys using the  
configuration files:  
Example:  
• prgkey1 locked: 0  
• prgkey2 locked: 0  
Once the Save and Delete keys are unlocked, a User can change the function of  
the keys using the Aastra Web UI. An Administrator can change the function of  
the keys using the Aastra Web UI or the configuration files.

Local Dial Plan  
A dial plan describes the number and pattern of digits that a user dials to reach a  
particular telephone number. Access codes, area codes, specialized codes, and  
combinations of the number of digits dialed are all part of a dial plan. For  
instance, the North American Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) uses a  
10-digit dial plan that includes a 3-digit area code and a 7-digit telephone number.  
Most PBXs support variable length dial plans that use 3 to 11 digits. Dial plans  
must comply with the telephone networks to which they connect. Only totally  
private voice networks that are not linked to the PSTN or to other PBXs can use  
any dial plan.  
The IP phones have local dial plan capacity. You configure the SIP Local Dial  
Plan using the Aastra Web UI or the configuration files.  
The IP phone SIP local dial plan available symbols are as follows:  
Symbol  
Description  
0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9  
;
Digit symbol  
Allows a secondary dial tone to be audible before dialing a  
number.  
X
Match any digit symbol (wildcard)  
Other keypad symbol  
*, #, .  
|
Expression inclusive OR  
+
[]  
-
0 or more of the preceding digit symbol or [] expression  
Symbol inclusive OR  
Used only with [], represent a range of acceptable symbols;  
For example, [2-8]  
;
Used when a secondary dial tone is required on the phone.  
(For example, “9;xxxxxx”, when a user has to dial “9” to get  
and outside line and needs a secondary dial one presented  
Dial Plan Example  
An example of a SIP Local Dial Plan is:  
[01]XXX|[2-8]XXXX|91XXXXXX

Operational Features  
The dial plan in the above example can accept any 4-digit dial strings that begin  
with a '0' or '1', any 5-digit dial strings that begin with a '2' up to '8', any 12-digit  
dial strings that begin with '91', any non-empty digit string that ends with a '.' or  
any 2-digit code that begins with a '*'.  
Prefix Dialing  
The IP phones support a prefix dialing feature for outgoing calls.  
You can manually dial a number or dial a number from a list. The phone  
automatically maps the pre-configured prepended digit in the configuration, to the  
outgoing number. When a match is found, the prepended digits are added to the  
beginning of the dial string and the call is dialed.  
Note: The prepend digits are also added if the dialing times-out on a  
partial match.  
You can enable this feature by adding a prepend digit(s) to the end of the Local  
Dial Plan parameter string in the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI at  
Basic Settings->Preferences->General.  
For example, if you add a prepend map of “[2-9]XXXXXXXXX,91”, the IP  
phone adds the digits “91” to any 10-digit number beginning with any digit from 2  
to 9 that is dialed out. Other examples of prepend mappings are:  
1X+#,9 (Prepends 9 to any digit string beginning with “1” and terminated  
with “#”.)  
6XXX,579 (Prepends “579” to any 4-digit string starting with “6”.)  
[4-6]XXXXXX,78 (Prepends “78” to any 7-digit string starting with “4”, “5”, or “6”.)  
Note: You can configure a local dial plan via the configuration files or  
the Aastra Web UI.  
Example  
If you enter the following dial string for a local dial plan:  
sip dial plan: 1+#,9

Configuring Operational Features  
Operational Features  
where “9” is the prepended digit, and you dial the following number:  
15551212  
the IP phone automatically adds the “9” digit to the beginning of the dialed  
number before the number is forwarded as 915551212.  
Note: You can configure a local dial plan via the configuration files or  
the Aastra Web UI.  
SIP Dial Plan Terminator  
The IP phone allows you to enable or disable the use of the “dial plan terminator”.  
When you configure the phone’s dial plan to use a dial plan terminator or timeout  
(such as the pound symbol (#)) the phone waits 4 or 5 seconds after you pick up  
the handset or after you finish dialing the numbers on the keypad before making  
the call.  
You can enable or disable the dial plan terminator using Aastra Web UI or the  
configuration files.  
Digit Timeout  
The IP phone allows you to configure a “Digit Timeout” feature on the IP phone.  
The Digit Timeout is the time, in seconds, between consecutive key presses on the  
IP phone’s keypad. The default for this parameter is 4 seconds. If you press a key  
on the phone and wait 4 seconds before pressing the next key, the key times out  
and cancels the digit selection. You must press consecutive keys before the  
timeout occurs.

Operational Features  
Secondary Dial Tone  
The IP phones now support a feature that allows the user to dial a predefined dial  
string, obtain a dial tone, and continue dialing. A User or Administrator can  
configure this using the existing Dial Plan feature on the phone.  
You can enter a new character string in the dial plan that allows you to configure  
the secondary dial tone. The character string is of the form ".;." , where the period  
indicates an arbitrary number of digits and the semicolon indicates that the phone  
is to present a dial tone after the previous dialed digit. For example, in the string:  
"9;xxxxx"  
the user dials “9” to get the outside line, listens for the dial tone, and continues to  
dial the applicable number. The “;” tells the phone to present a second dial tone  
after the previously dialed digit. “The “xxxxx” in the example tells the phone that  
a phone number is dialed after the secondary dial tone is audible.  
You can enter the Secondary Dial Tone string in the Dial Plan using the  
configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.  
You use the following parameter in the configuration files to configure a  
secondary dial tone:  
sip dial plan

sip dial plan: “9;5551313”

Park Calls/Pick Up Parked Calls  
The IP phones (including the 57i CT handset) have a park and pickup call feature  
that allows you to park a call and pickup a call when required. There are two ways  
a user or administrator can configure this feature:  
Using a static configuration (globally configures park and pickup)  
Using a programmable configuration  
Note: The IP phones accept both methods of configuration. However, to  
avoid redundancy, Aastra Telecom recommends you configure either a  
static configuration or a programmable configuration.  
The IP phones support the Park/Pickup feature on the Asterisk, BroadWorks,  
Sylantro, and ININ PBX servers.  
The following paragraph describes the park and pickup static configuration on the  
IP phones.  
Reference  
For information on configuring the park and pickup programmable configuration  
(using a key), see “Park/Pick Up Key” on page 5-219.  
Park/Pickup Static Configuration (9480i, 9480i CT, 55i, 57i, 57i CT only)  
Using the static method of configuring park and pickup configures these features  
on a global basis for all IP phones connected in the network. You can use the  
configuration files or the Aastra Web UI to configure a park/pickup static  
configuration.  
In the configuration files, you use the following parameters to statically configure  
park/pickup:

Display DTMF Digits  
A feature on the IP phones allows users and administrators to enable or disable  
DTMF (dual-tone multi-frequency) digits to display to the IP phone when using  
the keypad to dial, or when dialing from a softkey or programmable key.  
DTMF is the signal sent from the phone to the network that you generate when  
you press the phone’s touch keys. This is also known as “touchtone” dialing. Each  
key you press on your phone generates two tones of specific frequencies. One  
tone is generated from a high-frequency group of tones and the other from a low  
frequency group.  
If you enable the Display DTMF Digits parameter, the digits you are dialing from  
the keypad or from a softkey or programmable key display to the IP phone’s LCD  
display. This parameter is disabled by default (no digits display when dialing).

Call Waiting/Call Waiting Tone  
A call waiting feature notifies the user currently on the phone, of a new incoming  
call. You can disable this call waiting feature, so that the new incoming call is  
automatically rejected by the phone with a busy message. A User or  
Administrator can configure this feature.  
If you disable call waiting on the phone, and the user is on a call, any further  
incoming calls will receive busy unless “Call Forward Busy” or “Call Forward No  
Answer and Busy” is configured on the phone. It will then forward the call  
according to the rule configured. The phone can only:  
transfer the currently active call  
or  
accept transferred calls if there is no active calls.  
If call waiting is disabled:  
on the 57i CT bases, and the handset is currently on a call, all additional  
incoming calls are rejected on the handset.  
intercom calls are treated as regular incoming calls and are rejected.  
pre-dialing with live dial pad disabled still accepts incoming calls.

Incoming Call Interrupts Dialing  
You can configure whether or not an incoming call interrupts an outgoing call that  
is dialing. The “Incoming Call Interrupts Dialing” (Web UI) parameter or  
“incoming call cancels dialing” (in config file) parameter controls this feature.  
How it Works  
When you enable this parameter (1 = enable), an incoming call interrupts the  
outgoing call during dialing and allows the phone to ring for the user to answer the  
incoming call.  
When you disable this parameter (0 = disable), which is the default, the phone  
does not interrupt the outgoing call during dialing and the number you were  
dialing continues to display in the LCD. The phones sends the incoming call to a  
free line on the phone (or sends busy signal if all remaining lines are busy) and the  
LED for that line blinks. You have a choice to ignore the incoming call, or answer  
the incoming call on another line, via the Ignore and Answer softkeys that  
display. If you choose to answer the incoming call, you can answer the call, finish  
the call, and then hang up. You can still go back to the original outgoing call and  
finish dialing out.  
Notes:  
1.  
On a 9143i, 51i, and 53i, you must use the down arrow key to  
ignore the call. To answer the call you must press the line key where the  
call is coming in.  
2.  
For all models, if you disable this parameter (0=disable), and the  
phone receives an incoming call while you are dialing an outgoing call,  
you can pick up the call and perform transfer or conference as required.  
3.  
This feature works only if the User selects a line for which to dial  
out. It is recommended that the Administrator always keeps Live Dialpad  
ON in order for the User to have to select a line before dialing out.

Operational Features  
Transfer/Conference Call Behavior  
If you are dialing the phone to transfer or conference a call, and your phone  
receives an incoming call, your dialing is never interrupted (regardless of whether  
the “Incoming Call Interrupts Dialing” is enabled or disabled). For Transfer and  
Conference, the incoming calls always go to an available line (other than the one  
you are using for dialing) and the incoming call’s line LED blinks. The LCD still  
displays your dialing screen.  
Intercom Behavior  
If “Incoming Call Interrupts Dialing” (Web UI) or “incoming call cancels  
dialing” (config file) is enabled and you are dialing an outgoing Intercom call, the  
enabled interrupt setting takes precedence over an enabled “Allow Barge In”  
setting. The incoming call interrupts your dialing on an outgoing intercom call.  
On an incoming intercom call, the enabled “Allow Barge In” and  
Auto-Answer” occurs while you are dialing to transfer or conference the call.  
However, the incoming call goes to an available idle line, and the LED blinks  
while you are dialing the second half of the conference or transfer.  
If “Incoming Call Interrupts Dialing” (Web UI) or “incoming call cancels  
dialing” (config file) is disabled, an incoming intercom goes to an available idle  
line and the LED blinks for that line. The phone answers the call under all  
conditions.  
Configuring Incoming Call Interrupts Dialing  
Use the following procedures to configure how the IP phone handles incoming  
calls that interrupt outgoing dialing.  
Configuration Files  
For specific parameters you can set in the configuration files for enabling/disabling how the IP phones  
handle incoming calls that interrupt outgoing dialing, see Appendix A, the section, “Incoming Call Interrupts  
Dialing Setting” on page A-138.

Switch Focus to Ringing Line  
An Administrator or User can control the behavior of the phone when it receives  
an incoming call when it is already in a connected call. By default, the phone  
switches focus to the ringing line to enable the user to see who is calling them.  
You can turn off this functionality so that the phone now stays focused on the  
connected call. You can do this using the “switch focus to ringing line”  
parameter in the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.  
Note: If you configure the BLF/Xfer key(s) and/or Speeddial/Xfer  
key(s) on the phone, you can enable or disable the switching of the  
user interface focus to ringing line while the phone is in the connected  
state.

Preferred Line and Preferred Line Timeout  
An Administrator or User can define a preferred line as well as a preferred  
timeout. If a preferred line is selected, after a call ends (incoming or outgoing),  
the display switches back to the preferred line. Next time you go off-hook, you  
pickup on the preferred line. You can specify the number of seconds it takes for  
the phone to switch back to the preferred line using the “preferred timeout”  
parameter.  
An Administrator can configure the “preferred line” and the “preferred

Goodbye Key Cancels Incoming Call  
You can configure the Goodbye key to drop active calls or ignore incoming calls  
using the “goodbye cancels incoming call” parameter. This parameter controls  
the behavior of the goodbye key when the phone is on an active call and a second  
call is presented to the phone.  
How it Works  
When you enable this parameter (1 = enable in the configuration files), which is  
the default, the Goodbye key rejects the incoming call. When you disable this  
parameter (0 = disable in the configuration files), the Goodbye key hangs up the  
active call.  
For the 9480i, 9480i CT, 55i, 57i, and 57i CT:  
If you enable this parameter, and the phone receives another call when an active  
call is already present, the phone displays softkey 1 as “answer” and softkey 2 as  
ignore”. You can press the required softkey as applicable.  
For the 9143i, 51i, 53i:  
If you enable this parameter, and the phone receives another call when an active  
call is already present, the “ignore” option only displays in the LCD window. The  
phone ignores the incoming call. If you press the DOWN arrow key, the phone  
answers the incoming call.  
You can set this parameter using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.

UPnP Mapping Lines (for remote phones)  
Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) is a standard that uses Internet protocols to  
enable devices to be plugged into a network and automatically know about each  
other. With UPnP, when a user plugs a device into the network, the device  
configures itself, acquires a TCP IP address, and uses a discovery protocol based  
on the Internet's HTTP or HTTPS URL to announce its presence on the network  
to other devices.  
This method of device discovery on a network is called “Universal Plug and Play”  
or UPnP. If you enable UPnP, and the phone is discovered on the network, port  
mappings are set up between the phone and the Internet Gateway Device (IGD) in  
your network. The phone controls the opening, closing, and polling of ports on the  
IGD. HTTP and SIP use a single port each. RTP/RTCP uses a range of ports.  
You can enable the UPnP mappings to specific lines on your phone. You set this  
Mapping Lines.  
Note: UPnP must be enabled on your remote phone before you can  
configure the UPnP mapping lines. For information on enabling/disabling  
UPnP see Chapter 4, the section, “Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) (for  
remote phones)” on page 4-46.  
Configuring UPnP Mapping Lines  
Use the following procedures to configure UPnP mapping on specific lines on the  
IP phone.

For specific parameters you can set in the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section, “UPnP Settings”  
on page A-35.

Call Forward Mode  
Call Forward (CFWD) on the IP phone allows incoming calls to be forwarded to  
another destination. The phone sends the SIP message to the SIP proxy, which  
then forwards the call to the assigned destination.  
An Administrator or User can configure CFWD on the phone-side by setting a  
mode for the phone to use (Account, Phone, or Custom). Once the mode is set,  
you can use the IP Phone UI to use the CFWD feature at Options->Call Forward  
or by pressing a configured Call Forward softkey/programmable key/extension  
module key.  
The following describes the behavior for each CFWD mode.  
Account mode - The account mode allows you to configure CFWD on a per  
account basis. Pressing a configured CFWD key applies to the account in  
focus.  
Phone mode - The Phone mode allows you to set the same CFWD  
configuration for all accounts (All, Busy, and/or No Answer). When you  
configure the initial account, the phone applies the configuration to all other  
accounts. (In the Aastra Web UI, only the account you configured is enabled.  
All other accounts are grayed out but set to the same configuration.) Using the  
Aastra Web UI, if you make changes to that initial account, the changes apply  
to all accounts on the phone.

Link Layer Discovery Protocol for Media Endpoint Devices (LLDP-MED)  
and Emergency Location Identification Number (ELIN)  
The IP Phones support Link Layer Discovery Protocol for Media Endpoint  
Devices (LLDP-MED). LLDP-MED is designed to allow for things such as:  
Auto-discovery of LAN policies (such as VLAN, Layer 2 Priority and  
Diffserv settings) leading to "plug and play" networking.  
Extended and automated power management of Power over Ethernet  
endpoints.  
Inventory management, allowing network administrators to track their  
network devices, and determine their characteristics (manufacturer, software  
and hardware versions, serial / asset number).  
On the IP Phones, LLDP-MED performs the following:  
Supports the MAC/PHY configuration (e.g. speed rate/duplex mode).  
Supports VLAN info from the network policy; this takes precedence over  
manual settings.  
Allows you to enable/disable LLDP-MED if required.  
Allows you to configure time interval between successive LLDP Data Unit  
(LLDPDU) frames.  
Allows LLDP packets to be received from the LAN port.  
Allows the phone to use the location information, Explicit Congestion  
Notification (ECN) Emergency Location Identification Number (ELIN), sent  
by the switch, as a caller ID for making emergency calls.  
Note: If the phone receives location information in ECN ELIN format  
(10 to 25 numeric string), the phone replaces the caller ID SIP header  
with the ECN ELIN value and the SIP URI does not change. The phone  
determines if this is an emergency number by checking the emergency  
dial plan configured on the phone.

Operational Features  
Incoming/Outgoing Intercom with Auto-Answer and Barge In  
The Intercom feature allows you to press the configured Intercom button on the IP  
phone and then enter the number you want to call to initiate an intercom call.  
Intercom calls can be controlled either locally (phone-side) or by the SIP server  
(server-side).  
You can configure incoming and outgoing intercom calls on all phone models. A  
User can configure incoming intercom calls only.  
Outgoing Intercom Calls  
On outgoing intercom calls, an available unused line is found when the Icom  
button is pressed. Since this line has no configuration, the phone applies an  
existing configuration ("Outgoing Intercom Settings", Line, default is Line 1) to  
this line in preparation for placing the intercom call. For example, an outgoing  
intercom call can use the configuration of line 1 but places the actual intercom call  
using line 9. Only an Administrator can configure outgoing intercom calls.  
A phone-side Intercom call indicates the phone is responsible for telling the  
recipient that an intercom call is being placed, while a server-side intercom call  
means the SIP server is responsible for informing the recipient. Server-side calls  
require additional configuration of a prefix code. After pressing the Icom button  
and entering the number to call, the phone automatically adds the prefix to the  
called number and sends the outgoing call via the server.  
For outgoing intercom calls, an administrator can configure the following  
parameters:

Configuring Operational Features  
Operational Features  
Incoming Intercom Calls  
You can configure how the phone handles incoming intercom calls. You can  
receive incoming intercom calls whether or not there are active calls on the phone.  
The way the phone handles the call depends on the incoming intercom call  
configuration. The following paragraphs describe the configuration parameters for  
incoming intercom calls.  
Microphone Mute  
You can mute or unmute the microphone on the IP phone for intercom calls made  
by the originating caller. If you want to mute the intercom call, you enable this  
feature. If you want to unmute (or hear the intercom call), you disable this feature.  
Auto-Answer/Play Warning Tone  
The auto-answer feature on the IP phone allows you to enable or disable  
automatic answering for an Intercom call. If “Auto-Answer” is enabled, the phone  
automatically answers an incoming intercom call. If “Play Warning Tone” is also  
enabled, the phone plays a tone to alert the user before answering the intercom  
call. If “Auto-Answer” is disabled, the phone rejects the incoming intercom call  
and sends a busy signal to the caller.  
“Delay” before Auto-Answer  
The IP Phones include support for the "delay" parameter (in the Alert-Info header,  
used in conjunction with info=alert-autoanswer) in order to facilitate auto-answer  
functionality. When present, the value of the "delay" parameter specifies the  
length of time in seconds an IP phone rings before a call is auto-answered. If this  
value of the "delay" parameter set to 0 (delay=0), then an incoming call is  
immediately auto-answered. The absence of the parameter is considered as ring  
forever.  
In order for the delay functionality to operate, you must first enable Auto-Answer  
on the IP Phone.

Allow Barge In  
You can configure whether or not the IP phone allows an incoming intercom call  
to interrupt an active call. The “sip intercom allow barge in” parameter controls  
this feature. When you enable the sip intercom allow barge in parameter  
(1 = enable in the configuration files), which is the default value, an incoming  
intercom call takes precedence over any active call, by placing the active call on  
hold and automatically answering the intercom call. When you disable this  
parameter (0 = disable in the configuration files), and there is an active call, the  
phone treats an incoming intercom call like a normal call and plays the call  
warning tone. You can set this parameter using the configuration files or the  
Aastra Web UI.  
For incoming intercom calls, an administrator or user can configure the following  
parameters:  
Configuration File Parameters

Group Paging RTP Settings  
An Administrator or User can configure a specific key (softkey, programmable  
key, or expansion module key) on the phone that allows you to send/receive a  
Real Time Transport Protocol (RTP) stream to/from pre-configured multicast  
address(es) without involving SIP signaling. This is called Group Paging on the IP  
phones. You can specify up to 5 listening multicast addresses.  
An Administrator can use the following parameters in the configuration files to set  
Group Paging RTP Settings:  
paging addr list  
softkeyN type, topsoftkeyN type, prgkeyN type, or expmodX keyN type  
sofkeyN label  
softkeyN value, topsoftkeyN value, prgkeyN value, or expmodX keyN  
value  
An Administrator or User can use the following parameters in the Aastra Web UI  
to set Group Paging RTP Settings:  
Paging Listen Addresses (Path: Basic Settings->Preferences->Group  
Paging RTP Settings)  
<Paging> Key (Operation->Softkeys and XML, Programmable Keys, or  
Expansion Module Keys)  
Note: The Group Paging RTP Settings are dependant upon the setting for  
the “Allow Barge In” parameter.

IP Phone Administrator Guide  
Operational Features  
How it works  
After pressing a configured “Paging” key on the phone, the Phone sends RTP to a  
preconfigured multicast address(es) (IP port). Any phone in the local network  
then listens for RTP on the preconfigured multicast address(es) (IP port). For both  
sending and receiving of the multicast RTP there is no sip signaling involved. The  
Phone displays the multicast RTP sent/received address(es) to the user.  
Note: Multicast RTP is one way only - from sender to the receiver (i.e.  
from sender to the multicast address(es) (receiver)).  
The phone uses a preconfigured G711 uLaw CODEC for multicast RTP.  
For Paging Systems, the phone only plays RTP traffic; users have the ability to  
drop a rogue page. The recipient can drop the incoming page if required. The  
recipient can also set Do Not Disturb (DND) to ignore any incoming pages.  
Note: For outgoing RTP multicasts, all other existing calls on the phone  
are put on hold.  
For incoming RTP multicasts, the ringing display is dependant on the “Allow  
Barge-In” parameter. If this parameter is disabled, and there is not other call  
on the phone, then the paging is automatically played via the preferred  
audio device (see the model-specific IP Phone User Guide for setting  
Audio Mode on the phone).  
If there is an existing call on the phone, the call initially displays in the ringing  
state. The user has the option to accept/ignore the call. If the “Allow Barge-In”  
parameter is enabled, the RTP multicast call barges in, and any existing calls are  
put on hold.  
If an RTP multicast session already exists on the phone, and the phone receives  
another incoming RTP multicast session, the priority is given to the first multicast  
session and the second multicast session is ignored. The behavior for the  
incoming calls in this case is also based on the setting for the “Allow Barge-in”  
parameter. The incoming call is handled as if there were an existing call already  
on the phone.

Priority Alerting  
Priority alerting on the IP phones is a feature that allows incoming calls to trigger  
pre-defined ringing or call waiting alert tones.  
You can enable or disable priority alerting on the IP phone for the Asterisk,  
Broadworks, and Sylantro servers using the configuration files and the Aastra  
Web UI. Configuration of priority alerting is on a global-basis only.  
How Priority Alerting Works  
When the IP phone detects an incoming call, the phone firmware inspects the  
INVITE request in the IP packet for an "Alert-Info" header.  
If it contains an "Alert-Info" header, the firmware strips out the URL and keyword  
parameter and maps it to the appropriate Bellcore tone.  
If there is no keyword parameter in the "Alert-Info" header, or the INVITE  
message contains no "Alert-Info" header, then the IP phone firmware uses the  
Bellcore standard ring tone.  
Asterisk/Broadworks Servers  
The ring tone keywords that can display in the "Alert-Info" header for an Asterisk

Directed Call Pickup (BLF or XML Call Interception)  
Directed call pickup is a feature on the phones that allows a user to intercept a call  
on a ringing phone which is part of the same interception group. You can use the  
Directed call pickup feature on the phone in two ways:  
With the existing BLF feature on Asterisk, a user can dial “*76” followed by  
the extension to pick up a ringing call on another phone. (For more  
information about BLF, see “Busy Lamp Field (BLF)” on page -161  
Using XML, a user can intercept a call by selecting an extension from a list  
and then pressing a “Pickup” softkey/programmable key. To use the Directed  
call pickup feature from an XML application, you must list all ringing  
extensions using the AastraIPPhoneTextMenu XML object in an XML  
script. This allows the user to select the ringing extension from a text menu  
without having to dial. The following illustration shows an example of how  
this feature displays to the LCD from an XML application.:

IP Phone Administrator Guide  
Operational Features  
BLF and XML softkeys/programmable keys monitor the states of an extension.  
The extension states can be one of three states: "busy", "ringing" and "idle". If the  
monitored extension is in the "ringing" state with an incoming call, and "Directed  
call pickup" is enabled, pressing the BLF or XML key can pick up the incoming  
call on the monitored extension.  
Note: The Asterisk and Epygi Quadro 4x/16x IP PBX servers support  
this feature. For details about Asterisk support, contact Aastra Technical  
Support.  
Directed Call Pickup Prefix (optional)  
The optional “directed call pickup prefix” allows you to enter a specific prefix  
string (depending on what is available on your server), that the phone  
automatically dials when dialing the Directed Call Pickup number. For example,  
for Broadsoft servers, you can enter a value of *98 for the “directed call pickup  
prefix”. When the phone performs the Directed Call Pickup after pressing a BLF  
or BLF/List softkey, the phone prepends the *98 value to the designated extension  
of the BLF or BLF/List softkey when dialing out.  
How this feature works when Directed Call Pickup is enabled with BLF or  
BLF/List  
1. Phone A monitors Phone B via BLF/List.  
2. Phone C calls Phone B; Phone B rings.  
3. If you press the BLF/List softkey on Phone A, it picks up the ringing line on  
Phone B.  
4. Phone C connects to Phone A.  
How this feature works when Directed Call Pickup is disabled with BLF or  
BLF/List  
1. Phone A monitors Phone B via BLF/List.  
2. Phone C calls Phone B; Phone B rings.  
3. If you press the BLF/List softkey on Phone A, it performs a speeddial to  
Phone B.  
4. Phone C and Phone A are ringing Phone B on separate lines (if available).

Notes:  
1. The default method for the phone to use is Directed Call Pickup over  
BLF if the server provides applicable information. If the Directed Call  
Pickup over BLF information is missing in the messages to the server, the  
Directed Call Pickup by Prefix method is used if a value for the prefix  
code exists in the configuration.  
2. You can define only one prefix at a time for the entire BLF/List.  
3. The phone that picks up displays the prefix code + the extension  
number (for example, *981234 where prefix key = *98, extension =  
1234).  
You can enable/disable “Directed Call Pickup” using the configuration files or the  
Aastra Web UI.  
Note: The “Directed Call Pickup” feature is disabled by default.

In the configuration files, you use the following parameters to enable and disable  
operational states:  
• softkeyN states  
You can enter multiple values (idle, connected, incoming, outgoing, busy) for  
the "softkeyN state" parameter. For example:

Feature Key Programming Guidelines  
The following are guidelines to use when programming the feature keys on the  
handset:  
All handsets paired with the same Base Station have the same programmed  
functions since the web interface applies the functions to all the handsets  
paired with that base.  
A newly registered handset or handset that was out-of-range during the  
programming needs to perform an "off-hook and on-hook" sequence in order  
for the newly programmed function to be broadcasted to the affected  
handsets. Simply press the v key from the idle state to go off-hook. Then,  
press the y key to go back on-hook.  
Duplicate functions can exist in the feature key as there is no filtering or  
duplicate checking done on the handset or the base.  
If no line keys are programmed for the feature key, the handset is restricted to  
intercom calls only.  
If all 12 programmable functions have been programmed to "None", the user  
is presented with a List empty message when the feature key is pressed.  
List empty  
Use web page to  
configure  
For security reasons, the user has 180 seconds (3 minutes) to complete the  
programming. Otherwise, the phone displays the following error:  
** Error **: Session expired, Please reload page.  
For security reasons, the user must submit the page from the same browser  
that was used to load the page. If the user tries to submit the page from any  
other IP address, the following error displays:

number and then pause to let you enter the remaining phone number. You can use  
this feature for numbers that contain long prefixes. For example, if you had the  
following speeddial configuration in the configuration files:  
softkey2 type: speeddial  
softkey2 label: Europe Office  
softkey2 value: 1234567+  
softkey2 line: 2  
after you press softkey2 on the phone, it dials the prefix number automatically and  
pauses for you to enter the remaining number using the keypad on the phone.  
You can configure the speeddial prefix using the configuration files or the Aastra

Operational Features  
Busy Lamp Field (BLF)  
The BLF feature on the IP phones allows a specific extension to be monitored for  
state changes. BLF monitors the status (busy or idle) of extensions on the IP  
phone.  
Note: The BLF setting is applicable to the Asterisk server only.  
Example  
A Supervisor configures BLFs on his phone for monitoring the status of a  
worker’s phone use (busy or idle). When the worker picks up his phone to make a  
call, a busy indicator on the Supervisor’s phone shows that the worker’s phone is  
in use and busy.  
BLF Setting (For use with Asterisk)  
On the 9480i, 9480i CT, 55i, 57i, and 57i CT, the busy and idle indicators show on  
the IP phone screen display next to the softkey or programmable key configured  
for BLF functionality. When the monitored user is idle, an icon with the handset  
on-hook shows next to the BLF softkey or programmable key. When the  
monitored user is on an active call, a small telephone icon is shown with the  
handset off-hook.  
On the 9143i, 51i, and 53i, the LED lights next to each BLF programmable key  
illuminate steady to indicate the monitored line is off-hook or unregistered. The  
LED goes off when the line is idle.  
Note: You can configure a maximum of 50 BLFs on the 536M and 560M  
Expansion Modules.  
You can configure a BLF key on the IP Phones using the configuration files or the  
Aastra Web UI.

Operational Features  
BLF\List Setting  
(For use with the BroadSoft Broadworks Rel 13 or higher platform only)  
The BLF\List feature on the IP phones is specifically designed to support the  
BroadSoft Broadworks Rel 13 Busy Lamp Field feature. This feature allows the  
IP phone to subscribe to a list of monitored users defined through the BroadWorks  
web portal.  
In addition to monitoring the idle and busy state, the BLF\List feature also  
supports the ringing state. When the monitored user is idle, there is a small  
telephone icon shown with the handset on-hook. When the monitored user is in  
ringing state, there is a small bell icon shown. When the monitored user is on an  
active call then a small telephone icon is shown with the handset off-hook.  
On the 9143i and 53i phone, the LED lights next to each BLF programmable key  
illuminate steady to indicate the monitored line is off-hook or unregistered. The  
LED goes off when the is idle. When the monitored extension is ringing, the LED  
flashes.  
Note: The Broadworks BLF feature is not the same as the Broadworks  
Shared Call Appearance (SCA) feature and does not permit call control  
over the monitored extension.  
You can configure a BLF/List key on the IP Phones using the configuration files  
or the Aastra Web UI. You can also specify a BLF list URI that the phone uses to  
access the required BLF list. You can specify a BLF List URI using the “list uri”  
parameter in the configuration files or the BLF List URI field in the Aastra Web  
UI at the path Operation->Softkeys/Programmable Keys/Expansion Module  
Keys->Services->BLF List URI. For more information about the “list uri”  
parameter, see Appendix A, the section, “BLF List URI Settings” on page A-218.  
Example  
A receptionist has a 57i running Broadsoft firmware that subscribes to a list of  
extensions from the BroadWorks Application Server. Each monitored extension  
in the list shows up individually on the 57i screen next to a softkey button. The  
softkey icons on the screen change depending on the state of the extensions.

Operational Features  
BLF/Xfer and Speeddial/Xfer Keys  
The IP Phones have a transfer (Xfer) enhancement feature you can use with the  
BLF and Speeddial keys - BLF/Xfer and Speeddial/Xfer.  
The BLF key allows one or more extensions to be monitored, and once there is  
any state change with those extensions, the key shows the status of the monitored  
lines. The Xfer key allows a call to be transferred to other recipients blindly or  
consultatively.  
The Speeddial key allows a number to be dialed quickly by pressing one key  
configured for speeddialing. After answering a call, the recipient can transfer the  
call to an extension by:  
1. Pressing Xfer key  
2. Entering the number of the extension or pressing speeddial or BLF key.  
3. Pressing Xfer key again  
The BLF and Speeddial transfer enhancement feature provides a simpler way of  
transferring calls using the keys called BLF/Xfer and Speeddial/Xfer. The BLF/  
Xfer key combines the BLF and Xfer key's functionality together allowing the  
user to transfer calls or use BLF with one key. Similarly, the Speeddial/Xfer key  
combines the Speeddial key and Xfer key's functionality together allowing the  
user to press one key to speeddial and transfer calls.  
Note: It is recommended that you enable the “switch focus to  
ringing” parameter when using the BLF and Speeddial transfer key  
feature. For more information about this parameter, see “Switch Focus  
to Ringing Line” on page 5-75.

Operational Features  
Automatic Call Distribution (ACD) (for Sylantro Servers)  
The IP phones support an Automatic Call Distribution (ACD) feature for Sylantro  
servers. The ACD feature allows the Sylantro server to distribute calls from a  
queue to registered IP phone users (agents).  
To use the ACD feature on an IP phone, the administrator must first configure an  
an ACD softkey or programmable key. When an IP phone user wants to subscribe  
to a queue (in order to receive incoming calls), the user presses the ACD key. The  
IP phone UI prompts the user to specify the following information:  
User ID: the phone number(s) used to login into the queue.  
Password: the password used to login to the queue.  
Available/unavailable: Shows the current status of the IP phone. Specifies if  
the IP phone user is available/unavailable to receive a call from the queue.  
This parameter is set to “unavailable” by default.  
When the IP phone user is ready to receive calls from the server, the user logs into  
a queue. Depending on the server configuration, the IP phone is either in an  
“unavailable” or “available” state. If the phone is set to “available” then the server  
begins to distribute calls to this phone immediately. If the phone is set to  
unavailable, then server waits until the IP phone user manually changes the phone  
status to “available” (using the IP phone UI) before distributing calls.  
Whenever the IP phone user answers a call, or misses a call, the server  
automatically changes the phone’s status to unavailable. The server updates it  
The IP phone will remain in this state until:  
— the IP phone user makes himself “available” again.  
— the ACD auto-availability timer expires. This occurs only if the  
administrator has configured an ACD auto-availability timer as described  
in “ACD Auto-Available Timer” on page 5-177.  
The IP phone user can also choose to manually change the phone status to  
unavailable, using the IP Phone UI.  
Note: It is recommended you configure no more than a single ACD  
softkey or programmable key per IP phone.

distributed calls on your IP phone. To login to a phone queue, your system  
administrator must preconfigure an ACD softkey or programmable key on your  
Aastra IP phone.  
For models 9480i, 9480i CT, 55i, 57i, 57i CT, the ACD softkey is labeled  
according to your network requirements. Check with your administrator to verify  
the label assigned to the ACD softkey on your IP phone. The label usually  
describes which phone queue you are accessing when you press the ACD softkey.  
For example, suppose the administrator wants to configure an ACD softkey to  
allow an IP phone user to log into the Customer Support phone queue. The  
administrator assigns the label “Support” to the softkey, so it is easily  
recognizable to the IP phone user. When the IP phone user wants to subscribe to  
the Customer Support queue, the user presses the Support key and can log in.  
Once logged in to the queue, you can make himself “available” or “unavailable”  
to take calls by pressing the Available/Unavailable key on the phone UI. The  
server monitors your IP phone status. When you set the IP phone to “available,”  
the server begins distributing calls to your phone. When you set the IP phone to  
“unavailable,” the server temporarily stops distributing calls to your phone.  
The icon that appears next to the ACD softkey or programmable key on the IP  
Phone UI reflects your current status. In the example shown below, the  
shows the current status of this IP phone user as “logged off.”

ACD Subscription Period  
On the IP phones, you can set the time period, in seconds, that the IP phone  
resubscribes the ACD subscription service after a software/firmware upgrade or  
after a reboot of the IP phone.  
In the configuration files, you enter the following parameter with a valid value to  
set the ACD subscription period:  
sip acd subscription period: <value in seconds>  
The minimum value for this 120 seconds (2 minutes).  
The default is 3600 (1 hour).  
Setting this parameter to a value lower than 3600 allows the configured ACD  
feature to become active more quickly after a software/firmware upgrade or after  
a reboot of the IP phone. If you enter a value lower than 120 for this parameter,  
the default value (3600) will be used by the IP phone.  
You can configure this feature using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.

Directed Call Pickup/Group Call Pickup (for Sylantro Servers)  
Aastra IP phones and any attached Expansion Modules support the Directed Call  
Pickup (DCP) and Group Call Pickup (GCP) features.  
The Directed Call Pickup/Group Call Pickup feature allows you to intercept - or  
pickup - a call on a monitored extension. An Administrator or User can configure  
this feature using the Aastra Web UI to create a DCP or GCP softkey on the IP  
phone. When you configure a DCP softkey, you specify the extension that you  
want to monitor. Then, when the monitored extension receives a call, you press  
the DCP softkey to “pickup” (intercept) it. If the monitored extension receives  
multiple incoming calls simultaneously, the IP Phone UI displays a list of  
incoming calls. You select a call from this list, and are connected to the call.  
When you configure a GCP softkey, you specify the ring group that you want to  
monitor for incoming calls. For example, suppose an Operator configures a GCP  
softkey to monitor incoming calls for a specific ring group (extensions  
2200-2210). When an incoming call is received on any of these extensions, the  
Operator presses the GCP softkey and is connected to the call. If multiple  
incoming calls are received simultaneously, the Operator does the following  
actions:  
Presses the GCP softkey. The Operator Phone UI displays the current list of  
incoming calls (see below).  
Selects an extension to “pickup” first.  
Presses the Pickup softkey. The Operator is connected to the incoming call.

Operational Features  
Bridged Line Appearance (BLA)  
A SIP bridge line appearance (BLA) on the IP phones allows multiple devices to  
share a single directory address (DA).  
For example, people working at a technical support department could be located  
in different places. If their desktop phones are configured for BLA DA, when  
customer calls come in, all the phones with the BLA DA would ring but the call  
can only be answered by one of them.  
Once the call is answered, the rest of the phones reflect the status of the call. If the  
call was put on "hold" by the original recipient, any one from the group can pick  
up the call.  
Note: This feature is dependent on the IP telephony system to which the  
IP phone is registered and according to draft-anil-sipping-bla-02.txt.  
You can apply BLA on the IP phones as follows:  
As a single BLA group - One BLA DA is shared among multiple phones.  
Only one phone at a time can pick up an incoming call or initiate an outgoing  
call on the BLA DA. All phones reflect the usage of the BLA DA. If the call is  
put on "hold", any one from the group can pick up the "held" call.  
As a multiple BLA group - On one single phone, multiple BLA DA can be  
associated with different line appearances. Every BLA DA is independent  
from each other and follows the same rules as "a single BLA group".  
As multiple instances of a BLA DA - A "x-line-id" parameter was defined in  
draft-anil-sipping-bla-02.txt to present the incoming call to or place an  
outgoing call on the specified line appearance instance. The parameter is  
carried in "Alert-Info" header field over the request-URI (INVITE e.g.) or in  
the NOTIFY messages to report the status of a dialog.  
BLA DA can be configured on a global basis or on a per-line basis on the IP  
phones using the Aastra Web UI or the configuration files.

When configuring the BLA feature on a per-line basis for a Sylantro server, the  
value set for the "sip lineN bla number" parameter shall be the same value set for  
the "sip lineN user name" parameter for all the phones in the group. For example,  
if sip lineN user name is 1010, you would configure BLA on a per-line basis for  
the Sylantro server as follows:  
sip line 1 mode: 3  
sip line1 user name: 1010 (# for all the phones)

For ININ Server  
When configuring the BLA feature on an ININ server, the value set for the sip  
lineN bla number parameter shall be the same value set for the sip lineN user  
name parameter without the incremented digit added to the phone #. For example,  
if the sip lineN user name for the first phone is 10101, and the sip lineN user name  
for the second phone is 10102, etc., you would configure BLA on a per-line basis  
for the ININ server as follows:  
(# for phone 1 with appearance of phone 3)  
sip line1 mode: 3  
sip line1 user name: 10101 sip line1 bla number: 1010  
(# for phone 2 with appearance of phone 3)  
sip line1 mode: 3  
sip line1 user name: 10102  
sip line1 bla number: 1010  
(# for phone 3)  
sip line1 mode: 3  
sip line1 user name: 1010  
sip line1 bla number: 1010  
Note: The original phone number which has the bridged line appearance  
on other phones, will have the "sip lineN user name" parameter the same  
as the "sip lineN bla number" (1010 in the above example on Phone 3).  
Use the following procedures to configure BLA on the IP phone.

Using a BLA Line on the IP Phone  
If you have either a global or per-line BLA configuration, and you want to share a  
call on the line with a BLA group, you need to press the Hold button before  
sharing the call with the group.  
For example, if line 1 is configured for BLA, and you pick up a call on line 1, you  
must press the Hold button to share the call with the BLA group.  
If you pick up a call on line 1 configured for BLA, and another call comes in on  
line 2, you can pick up line 2 without putting line 1 on hold. The line 1 call will  
be on hold automatically; however it is on hold locally only. The line 1 call  
cannot be shared with the BLA group.  
Note: The Hold button must be pressed for a call on a BLA line to be  
shared with the BLA group.

BLA Support for Third Party Registration  
BLA allows an Address Of Record (AOR) to be assigned onto different line  
appearances for a group of SIP user agents (IP phones). When a call is made to  
this BLA number, the call is offered to all user agents that have mapping to this  
BLA. To support this, the IP phones need to support third party registration for the  
BLA along with the registration for its own primary appearance number. If the IP  
phone has the primary appearance as a BLA, then there is no need for third party  
registration.  
When configuring the BLA feature on a per-line basis for third party registration  
and subscription, the third party name must be configured using the “sip lineN bla  
number” parameter. For third party registration to work effectively, one of the  
lines should register as generic with its own username.  
For example, Bob has Alice’s appearance on his phone. Bob’s configuration is as  
follows:  
#line 1 Bob  
sip line1 auth name:4082272203  
sip line1 password:  
sip line1 mode: 0

Park/Pick Up Key  
The IP phones (including the 57i CT and 9480i CT handsets) have a park and  
pickup call feature that allows you to park a call and pickup a call when required.  
There are two ways a user or administrator can configure this feature:  
Using a static configuration (globally configures park and pickup)  
Using a programmable configuration (using a key)  
Note: The IP phones accept both methods of configuration. However, to  
avoid redundancy, Aastra Telecom recommends you configure either a  
static configuration or a programmable configuration.  
The IP phones support the Park/Pickup feature on the Asterisk, BroadWorks,  
Sylantro, and ININ PBX servers.  
The following paragraph describes the configuration of a park and pickup key on  
the IP phone. For information about configuring the park and pickup static  
configuration method see “Park Calls/Pick Up Parked Calls” on page 5-55.  
Park/Pickup Programmable Configuration (using a key)  
The programmable method of configuration creates park and pickup keys  
(softkeys, programmable keys, expansion module keys) that you can configure on  
the IP phones.  
For the 9480i, 9480i CT, 55i, 57i, and 57i CT you can set a key as "Park" or  
"Pickup" and then:  
specify a customized label to display on the Phone UI  
specify a value  
specify which line to use  
specify the state of the park and/or pickup keys  
For the 9143i and 53i, you can set a programmable key as "Park" or "Pickup" and  
then:  
specify a value  
specify a line to use

Operational Features  
On 9480i/9480i CT and 57i/57i CT  
On the IP phone UI, the Park/Pickup feature displays the following:  
When a call comes in, and you pickup the handset, the custom label that you  
configured for the Park softkey displays on the Phone UI.  
After the call is parked, the label that you configured for the Pickup softkey  
displays on other phones in the network. You can then press the "Pickup"  
softkey, followed by the applicable value to pickup the call on another phone  
in your network.  
On the Model CTs, the customized labels apply to the base unit only. On the  
Model CT handsets, pressing Ï displays the default labels of "Park" and  
"Pickup".  
Note: On the 9480i/9480i CT and 57i/57i CT, the old softkey labeled  
"Pickup" has been renamed to "Answer". This softkey uses the old  
functionality - when you pickup the handset, you see a softkey labeled  
"Answer". You can then press this key to pick up an incoming call. Do  
no confuse this feature with the new Park/Pickup configuration feature.  
On 9143i and 53i  
When a call comes in, and you pickup the handset, you can press the  
applicable "Park" programmable key to park the call.  
After the call is parked, you can press the "Pickup" programmable key,  
followed by the applicable value to pickup the call.  
You can configure a Park and Pickup key configuration using the configuration  
files or the Aastra Web UI.

Configuring a Park/Pickup Key Using Aastra Web UI  
On the 57i/57i CT and 9480i/9480i CT, you configure a Park and/or Pickup key at  
Operation->Softkeys and XML. You enter a key label, and value for a specific  
line on the phone. The default state of the Park configuration is "connected". The  
default state of the Pickup configuration is "idle, outgoing".  
The 57i CT and 9480i CT handsets use the park/pickup configuration enabled at  
Operation->Handset Keys in the Aastra Web UI. If Park or Pickup are enabled  
on more than one line on the base unit, the 57i CT and 9480i CT handset uses the  
first programmable configuration.  
For example, if line 1 and line 6 are configured for park, the 57i CT and 9480i CT  
handset uses the configuration set for line 1 to park a call.  
On the 53i and 9143i, you configure a Park and/or Pickup key at  
Operation->Programmable Keys, and then enter the appropriate value and line.

While on a live call, press the "Park" softkey.  
Perform the following for your specific server:  
For Asterisk Server:  
- Server announces the  
extension number where the call  
has been parked. Once the call is  
parked, press the y  
key  
to complete parking.  
For BroadWorks Server:  
- After you hear the greeting from  
the CallPark server, enter the  
extension where you want to  
park the call.  
For Sylantro Server:  
- Enter the extension number  
where you want to park the call,  
followed by "#" key.  
For ININ Server:  
- Enter the extension number  
where you want to park the call,  
followed by "#" key.  
If the call is parked successfully, the response is either a greeting voice confirming that the call was  
parked, or a hang up occurs. The parked call party will get music on hold.

Operational Features  
Last Call Return (lcr) (Sylantro Servers)  
Last call return (lcr) allows an administrator or user to configure a "last call  
return" function on a softkey or programmable key. This feature is for  
Sylantro servers only.  
You can configure the “lcr” softkey feature via the configuration files or the  
Aastra Web UI.  
How it works  
If you configure "lcr" on a softkey or programmable key, and a call comes  
into your phone, after you are finished with the call and hangup, you can  
press the key configured for “lcr” and the phone dials the last call you received.  
When you configure an “lcr” softkey, the label “LCR” displays next to that  
softkey on the IP phone. When the Sylantro server detects an “lcr” request, it  
translates this request and routes the call to the last caller.  
Configuring Last Call Return  
Configuration Files  
For specific last call return (lcr) parameters you can set in the configuration files, see Appendix A, the  
section, “Softkey/Programmable Key/Feature Key/Expansion Module Key Parameters” on page A-184.

IP Phone Administrator Guide  
Operational Features  
Call Forwarding  
Call Forward (CFWD) on the IP phone allows incoming calls to be forwarded to  
another destination. The phone sends the SIP message to the SIP proxy, which  
then forwards the call to the assigned destination.  
An Administrator or User can configure CFWD on the phone-side by setting a  
mode for the phone to use (Account, Phone, or Custom). Once the mode is set,  
you can use the IP Phone UI to use the CFWD feature at Options->Call Forward  
or by pressing a configured Call Forward softkey/programmable key/extension  
module key.  
The following describes the behavior for each CFWD mode.  
Account mode - The account mode allows you to configure CFWD on a per  
account basis. Pressing a configured CFWD key applies to the account in  
focus.  
Phone mode - The Phone mode allows you to set the same CFWD  
configuration for all accounts (All, Busy, and/or No Answer). When you  
configure the initial account, the phone applies the configuration to all other  
accounts. (In the Aastra Web UI, only the account you configured is enabled.  
All other accounts are grayed out but set to the same configuration.) Using the  
Aastra Web UI, if you make changes to that initial account, the changes apply  
to all accounts on the phone.  
Custom mode - The Custom mode allows you to configure CFWD for a  
specific account or all accounts. You can configure a specific mode (All,  
Busy, and/or No Answer) for each account independently or all accounts. On  
the 9143i, 51i and 53i phones, you can set all accounts to ALL On or ALL  
Off. On the 9480i, 9480i CT, 55i, 57i, and 57i CT, you can set all accounts to  
All On, All Off, or copy the configuration for the account in focus to all other  
accounts using a CopytoAll softkey.  
Note: If there is only one account configured on the phone, then the  
mode setting is ignored and the phone behaves as if the mode was set  
to “Phone”.  
You can enable different call forwarding rules/modes independently (for example,  
you can set different phone numbers for Busy, All, and NoAns modes and then  
turn them on/off individually).

Important Notes  
In the configuration files, the “call forward key mode” parameter in the  
section, “Configuring Call Forwarding” on page 5-236 is in addition to the  
previous call forward parameter (call forward disabled). You can still use the  
previous call forwarding parameter if desired in the configuration files.  
In the IP Phone UI, you can access the Call Forwarding features at the path  
Options->Call Forward or by pressing a configured CFWD key.  
If you make changes to the configuration for CFWD via the IP Phone UI,  
you must refresh the Aastra Web UI screen to see the changes.

For each account, enable CFWD state by placing a check mark in one or more of the following  
State” fields:  
All

No Answer  
The “All” option forwards all incoming calls for this account to the specified phone number regardless  
of the state of the phone. The phone can be in the Busy or No Answer states, or can be in the idle  
state. The phone still forwards all calls to the specified number.  
The “Busy” option call forwards incoming calls only if the account is in the busy state. The calls are  
forwarded to the specified phone number.  
The “No Answer” option call forwards incoming calls only if the account rings but is not answered in  
the defined number of rings. The call gets forwarded to the specified number.  
Note: You can use the “Busy” and “No Answer” states together using different forwarding phone  
numbers. If these states are enabled for an account (the “All” state is disabled), and the phone is in  
the busy state when a call comes in, the phone can forward the call to the specified phone number  
(for example, voicemail). If there is no answer on the phone after the specified number of rings, the  
phone can forward the call to a different specified number, such as a cell phone number.

For each account, in the “Number” field, enter the phone number for which you want the incoming  
calls to forward to if the phone is in the specified state.  
If using the “Account” mode or “Custom” mode, you can enter different phone numbers for each  
account.  
Notes:  
1. If you selected “Account” mode in step 4, you can enable/disable each account or all accounts  
as applicable. You can enter different phone number for each enabled state.  
If you selected “Custom” mode, you can enable/disable each account or all accounts as applicable.  
You can enter different phone numbers for each enabled state.  
If you selected “Phone” mode, all accounts are set to the same CFWD configuration (All, Busy, and/  
or No Answer) as Account 1 on the phone. (In the Aastra Web UI, only Account 1 is enabled. All  
other accounts are grayed out but use the same configuration as Account 1.)  
Using the Aastra Web UI, if you make changes to Account 1, the changes apply to all accounts on  
the phone. Using the IP Phone UI, if you make changes to any other account other then Account 1,  
the changes also apply to all accounts on the phone. When enabling a CFWD state, you must specify  
a phone number for the phone to CFWD to. The number you specify applies to all accounts of the  
same mode.  
2. Number and name of accounts that display to this screen are dependant on the number and  
name of accounts configured on the phone. In the screen in step 6, Screenname1 is configured on  
Line 1, Screenname2 is configured on Line 2, and Screenname3 is configured on Line 3. The name  
for the account is dependant on the name specified for the “Screen Name” parameter at the path  
Advanced Settings->LineN. If you do not specify a value for the “Screen Name” parameter, the  
account name is based on the “Phone Number” parameter at the path Advanced Settings->LineN.  
If neither the “Screen Name” nor the “Phone Number” parameters are specified, the account name  
shows “1”, “2”, “3”, etc. only.

For the No Answer state, in the “No. Rings” field, enter the number of times that the account rings

In the Directory List a user or administrator can store a maximum of 7 numbers  
associated with a unique name. You can apply pre-defined labels to the entry  
which include, Office, Home, Cell, and Pager, or create your own labels. Labels  
can be up to 14 characters in length.  
You can also sort multiple numbers according to preference and perform a  
quick-search feature that allows you to enter the first letter that corresponds to a  
name in the Directory to find specific line items. The phone displays the first  
name with this letter.The quick-search feature in the Directory List works only  
when the Directory is first accessed.  
Reference  
For more detailed information about the Directory Key on your IP phone, and the  
Directory List, see your model-specific User Guide.  
Administrator/User Functions for Directory List  
You can perform the following pertaining to the Directory List:  
You can enable and disable access to the Directory List using the  
configuration files. When disabled, the Directory List does not display on the  
IP phone UI and the Directory List softkey is ignored when pressed. This is an  
administrator function only.  
If the Directory List is enabled, you can view, add, change, and delete entries  
to/from the Directory List using the IP phone UI. You can also directly dial a  
number from the Directory List. This is an administrator and user function.  
A public and private softkey can be used when at a line item in the Directory  
List. The Private key toggles a number in the Directory List to private. The  
Public key allows a number in the Directory List to be sent to the handsets. A  
57i CT accepts a maximum of 50 entries with the public attribute. This is an  
administrator and user function.  
You can download the Directory List to your PC via the Aastra Web UI. The  
phone stores the directorylist.csv file to your PC in comma-separated value  
(CSV) format. This is an administrator and user function.

The IP phone recognizes the following characters in a Directory List:  
Character  
’#’  
Description  
Pound character; any characters appearing after  
the # on a line are treated as a comment  
’,’  
Comma character; used to separate the name,  
URI number, line, and mode fields within each  
directory entry.  
’"’  
Quotation mark; when pound and comma  
characters are found between quotes in a name  
field or URI number field, they are treated as  
regular characters.  
A valid directory entry has a name, a URI number, and optional line number, and  
an optional mode attribute, all separated by commas. If a line number is not  
present, the entry is assigned to line 1. If a mode attribute (public or private) is not  
present, the entry is assigned to "Private".  
The following directory entries are considered valid:  
# our company's directory

Server to IP Phone Download Behavior  
The software that reads directory files from the server, loads the file’s contents  
into the phone's NVRAM when the phone is booting. Directory entries in the  
NVRAM that originate from a server directory file are 'owned' by the server.  
During the boot process both directory files are read, combined into a single list,  
and any duplicate entries are deleted from the list. Any entries in this list that are  
not already in the phone's NVRAM are added to the NVRAM and flagged as  
being owned by the server.  
Likewise, any entries in the NVRAM that are owned by the server, but are no  
longer in one of the server's directory files, are removed from the NVRAM.  
Entries made from the IP phone UI are never touched.

The following table indicates the maximum characters for each line and field in  
the Directory List.

XML Customized Services  
Extensible Markup Language (XML) is a markup language much like HTML.  
HTML was designed to display data and to focus on how data looks. XML was  
designed to describe data and to focus on what data is.  
The following are characteristics of XML:  
XML tags are not predefined. You must define your own tags.  
XML uses a Document Type Definition (DTD) or an XML Schema to  
describe the data.  
XML with a DTD or XML Schema is designed to be self-descriptive  
XML is a W3C Standard Recommendation  
Creating Customized XML Services on the IP Phones  
The XML application for the IP phones allows users to create custom services  
they can use via the phone’s keyboard and display. These services include things  
like weather and traffic reports, contact information, company info, stock quotes,  
or custom call scripts.  
The IP phone XML application supports the following proprietary objects that  
allow for the customization of the IP phone’s display.  
XML Object

Enabling/Disabling a Beep for Status Message Displays  
You can enable or disable a BEEP option using the Status Message object  
(AastraIPPhoneStatus), the configuration files, or the Aastra Web UI.  
Note: For enabling/disabling a status message beep using the Status  
Message object, see Appendix G, Creating and Managing XML  
Applications.”  
When the phone receives a status message, the BEEP notifies the user that the  
message is displaying.  
You can use the following to enable/disable a status message beep:  
AastraIPPhoneStatus object (via XML object; see Appendix G)  
xml beep notification (via configuration files)  
XML Beep Support (via the Aastra Web UI)  
Enabling the beep is an indication to the phone to sound a beep when it receives  
an AastraIPPhoneStatus object. If you disable the beep, or no  
AastraIPPhoneStatus object appears in the status message, then the default  
behavior is no beep is heard when the object arrives to the phone.  
The value set in the configuration files and Aastra Web UI override the attribute  
you specify for the AastraIPPhoneStatus object.  
For example, if the AastraIPPhoneStatus object has the attribute of Beep=”yes”,  
and you uncheck (disable) the “XML Beep Support” in the Aastra Web UI, the  
phone does not beep when it receives an AastraIPPhoneStatus object.  
Setting the BEEP option in the configuration files and the Aastra Web UI applies  
to the phone immediately.

Scroll Delay Option for Status Messages  
The IP phones support a scroll delay option that allows you to set the time delay,  
in seconds, between the scrolling of each status message on the phone. The default  
time is 5 seconds for each message to display before scrolling to the next message.  
You can configure this option via the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.  
You can use the following to set the scroll delay for status messages:  
xml status scroll delay (via the configuration files)  
Status Scroll Delay (seconds) (via the Aastra Web UI)  
Changes apply to the phone immediately.  
Reference  
For more information about configuring status scroll delay, see “Status Scroll  
Delay” on page 5-70.  
XML Configuration Push from the Server  
The IP phones provide an XML feature that allows you to make configuration  
changes to the phone that take affect immediately, without having to reboot the  
phone. This feature involves creating XML scripts that push the changed  
configuration parameter(s) from the server to the IP phones.  
You can use the AastraIPPhoneConfiguration object in the XML scripts to  
change configuration parameters or configure new parameters. However, since the  
IP phone does not save new parameters created in XML scripts to the local.cfg  
file, when the phone reboots, it does not save the new parameters on the phone. In  
order for the phone to apply new configuration parameters, you have to enter the  
parameters via the user interfaces (Telephone User Interface, Web User Interface,  
or configuration files), or reapply the new parameters using the XML scripts after  
every boot.  
Specific configuration parameters are dynamic on the phone when pushed from  
XML scripts on the server. See Appendix G, Creating and Managing XML  
Applications” for more information about XML configuration scripts and  
dynamic configuration parameters.

Configuring the Phone to use XML  
You can configure the phone to request the XML objects you create by  
configuring specific parameters via the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.  
Users can access XML applications via softkeys configured on the IP phones.  
The phone performs an HTTP GET on the URI configured in the Aastra Web UI  
or configuration files.  
You configure the following parameters for object requests:  
xml application URI  
xml application title  
The xml application URI is the application you are loading into the IP phone.  
The xml application title is the name of the XML application that displays on the  
Services menu in the IP Phone UI (as option #4).  
XML Get Timeout  
The IP phone has a parameter called, “xml get timeout” that allows you to  
specify a timeout value, in seconds, that the phone waits for the far side to return a  
GET connection but never returns a response, it blocks the phone until it is  
rebooted. If you enter a value greater than 0 for this parameter, the phone times  
out and will not be blocked.  
For more information about configuring this parameter, see Appendix A, the  
section, “XML Settings” on page A-127.

XML Push Requests  
In addition to initiating a request to an XML application from a softkey, an HTTP  
server can push an XML object to the phone via HTTP Post. When the phone sees  
a PUSH request containing an XML object, it tries to authenticate the request. It  
does so by checking the IP address or host name of the requesting host against a  
list of trusted hosts (or domain names) configured via the Aastra Web UI  
called xml application post list). If the request is authenticated, the XML object  
is handled by the IP phone accordingly, and displays the information to the screen.  
Note: The HTTP Post must contain HTTP packets that have an "xml"  
line in the message body. For more information about adding "xml" lines  
in HTTP packets, see Appendix G, Creating and Managing XML  
Applications.”.  
Example Configuration of XML Application  
The following example shows the parameters you enter in the configuration files  
to configure an XML application:  
xml application URI: http://172.16.96.63/aastra/internet.php  
xml application title: Aastra Telecom  
xml application post list: 10.50.10.53, dhcp10-53.ana.aastra.com

XML Action URIs  
The IP phones have a feature that allows an administrator to specify a uniform  
resource identifier (URI) that triggers a GET when certain events occur. The IP  
phone events that support this feature are:  
Startup  
Successful registration  
Incoming call  
Offhook  
Onhook  
Disconnected (For more information, see “Action URI Disconnected” on  
page -316.)  
XML SIP Notify (For more information, see “XML SIP Notify Events” on  
page 5-319.)  
Note: The Action URI feature on the IP Phones prevent the phone from  
hanging if the Action URIs should fail. Also, the phones have support for  
transparent, non-blocking, XML post execute item URIs. For more  
information about the XML execute items, see Appendix G, Creating  
and Managing XML Applications”.  
The following table identifies the configurable action URI parameters in the  
configuration files and the Aastra Web UI. This table also identifies the variables  
that apply to specific parameters.

How it works  
When a startup, successful registration, incoming call, outgoing call,  
offhook, or onhook call event occurs on the phone, the phone checks to see if  
the event has an action URI configured. If the phones finds a URI configured, any  
variables configured (in the form $$VARIABLENAME$$) are replaced with the  
value of the appropriate variable. After all of the variables are bound, the phone  
executes a GET on the URI. The Action URI binds all variables and is not  
dependant on the state of the phone.  
For example, if you enter the following string for the action uri outgoing  
parameter:  
action uri outgoing: http://10.50.10.140/  
outgoing.pl?number=$$REMOTENUMBER$$  
and you dial out the number 5551212, the phone executes a GET on:  
http://10.50.10.140/outgoing.pl?number=5551212  
Note: If the phone can’t find the Action URI you specify, it returns a  
“NULL” response. For example,  
http://10.50.10.140/outgoing.pl?number=  
You can configure this feature via the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.  
Configuring XML Action URIs  
Use the following procedures to configure XML Action URIs using the  
configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.

Action URI Disconnected  
The phones have a parameter, “action uri disconnected” that allow a disconnect  
event to occur when the phone transitions from any active state (outgoing,  
incoming, connected, or calling) to an idle state. This parameter can use the  
variable “$$LINESTATE$$”.  
Note: The $$LINESTATE$$ variable is optional and not required when  
enabling the “action uri disconnected” parameter.  
If the Administrator enables this feature (by specifying a disconnect URI),  
when a call is disconnected, the phone checks to see if the event has a  
Disconnect URI configured. If the phones finds a configured URI with a  
$$LINESTATE$$ variable, it replaces the $$LINESTATE$$ variable with the  
appropriate line state of the current active line. After all of the variables are  
bound, the phone executes a GET on the URI. The following table lists the

Operational Features  
The Action URI Disconnect feature allows an Administrator to determine the  
reason for the disconnect if required.  
Note: If you enable the Action URI Disconnect feature by specifying a  
URI, the URI is called when any disconnect event occurs including an  
intercom call or a conference setup.  
Example  
If you enter the following string on Phone A for the “action uri disconnected”  
parameter:  
action uri disconnected: http://fargo.ana.aastra.com/  
disconnected.xml?state=$$LINESTATE$$  
and then Phone A calls Phone B, Phone B answers and then hangs up, Phone A  
executes a GET on:  
http://fargo.ana.aastra.com/disconnected.xml?state=CONNECTED  
which is what the remote server receives.  
Note: If the phone can’t find the Action URI you specify, it returns a  
“NULL” response. For example,  
http://fargo.ana.aastra.com/disconnected.xml?state=  
An Administrator can enable the disconnect feature using the configuration files  
or the Aastra Web UI.

XML SIP Notify Events  
In order for an XML push to bypass the NAT/firewall, the phone supports a  
proprietary SIP NOTIFY event (aastra-xml) with or without XML content. An  
Administrator can enable/disable the SIP NOTIFY event using a specific  
parameter in the configuration files (sip xml notify event) or the Aastra Web UI  
(XML SIP Notify).  
If XML content is provided in the SIP NOTIFY, it is processed directly by the  
phone as it is done for an XML PUSH.  
If the content is empty in the SIP NOTIFY, the phone automatically triggers a new  
pre-configured action uri (action uri xml sip notify).  
Example of a SIP NOTIFY with XML Content  
NOTIFY sip:[email protected]:5060 SIP/2.0  
Via: SIP/2.0/UDP 10.30.100.103:5060;branch=z9hG4bK7bbc1fac;rport  
From: <sip:[email protected]:5060>;tag=81be2861f3  
To: Jacky200 <sip:[email protected]:5060>  
Contact: <sip:[email protected]>  
Call-ID: 59638f5d95c9d301  
CSeq: 4 NOTIFY  
Max-Forwards: 70  
Event: aastra-xml  
Content-Type: application/xml  
Content-Length: 115  
<AastraIPPhoneExecute><ExecuteItem URI="http://10.30.100.39/XMLtests/  
SampleTextScreen.xml"/></AastraIPPhoneExecute>  
When the phone receives the SIP NOTIFY, the XML content is processed as any  
XML object. In the above example, the phone calls http://10.30.100.39/XMLtests/  
SampleTextScreen.xml after reception of the SIP NOTIFY.  
Note: The phone supports all the current XML objects with all  
the existing limitations. For example if an  
AastraIPPhoneExecute is used, the embedded URI(s) can not be  
HTTPS based.

On the phone side, a System Administrator can enable or disable this SIP  
NOTIFY feature using the configuration files or the phone Web UI.  
Also to ensure that the SIP NOTIFY is coming from a trusted source, it is  
recommended that you enable the Whitelist feature (Whitelist Proxy parameter)  
on the IP phone. If enabled, and the phone receives a SIP NOTIFY from a server  
that is NOT on the whitelist, the phone rejects the message.

XML Softkey URI  
In addition to specifying variables for the Action URIs, you can also specify  
variables in the XML softkey URIs that are bound when the key is pressed. These  
variables are the same as those used in the Action URIs.  
When an administrator enters an XML softkey URI either via the Aastra Web UI  
or the configuration files, they can specify the following variables:  
$$SIPUSERNAME$$  
$$SIPAUTHNAME$$  
$$PROXYURL$$  
$$LINESTATE$$  
$$LOCALIP$$  
$$REMOTENUMBER$$  
$$DISPLAYNAME$$  
$$SIPUSERNAME$$  
$$CALLDURATION$$  
$$CALLDIRECTION$$  
Note: For a description of each variable in the above list, see  
Variable Descriptions” on page 5-311.  
When the softkey is pressed, if the phone finds a URI configured with variables  
(in the form $$VARIABLENAME$$), they are replaced with the value of the  
appropriate variable. After all of the variables are bound, the softkey executes a  
GET on the URI.  
Example  
For example, if the administrator specifies an XML softkey with the value:  
http://10.50.10.140/script.pl?name=$$SIPUSERNAME$$  
This softkey executes a GET on:  
http://10.50.10.140/script.pl?name=42512  
assuming that the sip username of the specific line is 42512.

called, “xml.myaastra.com”. You can assign the WebApps key to any softkey,  
programmable key, or expansion module key on the phone.  
On the 9480i, 9480i CT, 55i, 57i, and 57i CT phones, the WebApps softkey  
displays on softkey 1 on the idle screen by default. You can also access Web Apps  
from the Services menu on these phones.  
On the 9143i and 53i, you can access WebApps from the Services menu, or from a  
configured programmable key. By default, WebApps displays in the Services  
menu.  
On the 51i phone, you can access WebApps from the Services menu only.  
Note: The WebApps key is not applicable to the CT handsets.

XML Key Redirection  
The IP phones allow the redirecting of phone-based hard keys to XML scripts.  
This allows the server to provide the phone with Redial, Transfer (Xfer),  
Conference (Conf), and Intercom (Icom) key features, and the Voicemail option  
feature, rather then accessing them from the phone-side. This feature allows you  
to access the redirected keys and voicemail option from the server using the IP  
Phone’s Services Menu. By default, the server-side keys function the same as the  
phone-side key features.  
The following table identifies the phone states that apply to each key  
redirection.

Conference (Conf)  
Transfer (Xfer)

Notes:  
1. If XML key redirection is enabled on the 51i., the Xfer and Conf  
menu items perform redirection.  
2. Key remapping takes precedence over redirecting.  
3. Disabling the redial, conference, or transfer features on the phone  
also disables the redirection of these keys.  
The following URI configuration parameters control the redirection of the keys  
and the voicemail option:  
redial script  
xfer script  
conf script  
icom script  
voicemail script  
An Administrator can configure the XML key, redirection URI parameters using  
the configuration files only.

Options Key Redirection  
(for Options Menu on all phones and Services Menu on 51i)  
The IP phones allow the redirecting of the Options Key (Options Menu on all  
phones and Services Menu on the 51i) to an XML script. This allows the server to  
provide the phone with available options, rather then accessing them from the  
phone-side. You access the Options Key XML script by pressing the Options Key.  
You can still access the Options Menu from the phone-side by pressing and  
holding the Options key to display the phone-side Options Menu.  
The following URI configuration parameter controls the redirection of the  
Options Key:  
options script  
IMPORTANT NOTES  
If no Options URI script is configured, the local Options Menu on the phone  
displays as normal.  
If you configure password access to the Options Menu, this password is  
required when accessing the local Option Menu, but is not required for the  
Options Key redirection feature.  
Pressing the Options Menu for redirection from the server does not interfere  
with normal operations of the phone (for example, pressing the options menu  
when on a call does not affect the call).  
If the phone is locked, you must unlock the phone before accessing the  
Options Menu redirect feature. After pressing the Options Key, the phone  
displays a screen that allows you to unlock the phone before continuing.

Operational Features  
XML Applications and Off-Hook Interaction  
A feature on the IP phone allows you to specify whether the phone is prevented  
from going into the off-hook/dialing state when the handset is off-hook and the  
call ends.  
By default, the phone behaves as follows:  
You are in a call using the handset and the phone displays an XML application.  
The far-end terminates the call, and a new XML application gets pushed/pulled  
onto the display. Since the handset is off-hook and in idle mode, the "offhook idle  
timer" starts. When this timer expires, the phone applies dial tone and moves to  
the off-hook/dialing state, which then destroys the XML application that was  
being displayed.  
With the “off-hook interaction” feature you can set an “auto offhook” parameter  
that determines whether or not the phone is prevented from entering the off-hook/  
dialing state, if the handset is off-hook and the call ends.  
An Administrator can enable (allow phone to enter the off-hook dialing state) or  
disable (prevent the phone from entering the off-hook dialing state) using the  
auto offhook” parameter in the configuration files only.  
Configuring the Off-Hook Interaction Feature  
Use the following procedure to configure the XML application and off-hook  
interaction feature.  
Configuration Files  
For the specific parameter you can set in the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section, “Off-Hook and  
XML Application Interaction Setting” on page A-228.  
XML URI for Key Press Simulation  
The Phones provide a feature that allow an XML Developer or Administrator to  
define XML Key URIs that can send key press events to the phone, just as if the  
physical hard key, softkey, or programmable key were pressed on the phone.  
For more information about this feature, see Appendix G, the section, “XML URI  
for Key Press Simulation” on page G-60.

XML Override for a Locked Phone  
The IP phones have a feature that allows a locked phone to be overridden when an  
XML application is sent to the phone. This feature also allows you to still use any  
softkeys/programmable key/Extension Module Keys applicable to the XML  
application even though the phone is locked. However, any keys NOT associated  
with the XML application cannot be used when the phone is locked.  
Also, XML Get Requests override the locked feature on the phone so that any  
softkey pressed by the user that initiates a Get Request continues to get sent.  
To allow the overriding of the locked phone for XML applications, the System  
Administrator must enter the following parameter in the configuration files:  
xml lock override  
Configuring XML Override for a Locked Phone using the  
Configuration Files  
For the specific parameter you can set in the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section, “XML Override  
for a Locked Phone Setting” on page A-229.  
Note: A System Administrator can also lock and unlock a remote phone  
using the “lock” and “unlock” commands with the  
AastraIPPhoneExecute object in an XML application. For more  
information about this feature, see Appendix G, the section, “Using the  
Lock and Unlock Commands” on page G-46.

Operational Features  
Centralized Conferencing (for Sylantro and Broadsoft Servers)  
The IP phones include support for centralized conferencing (Ad-Hoc  
conferencing) for Sylantro and Broadsoft servers. This feature provides  
centralized conferencing on the SIP server (versus localized, on the phone) and  
allows IP phone users to do these tasks:  
Conference two active calls together into a conference call.  
When on an active conference call, invite another party into the call.  
Create simultaneous conference calls on the same IP phone (Sylantro servers  
only). For example, the IP phone user at extension 2005 could create these  
two conferences, and put one conference on hold while conversing with the  
other party:  
— Line 1: conference together extensions 2005, 2010, and 2020.  
— Line 2: conference together extensions 2005, 2011 and 2021.  
When an IP phone user is connected to multiple conference calls, some  
outbound proxies have maximum call “hold” time set from 30-90 seconds.  
After this time, the call that is on hold is disconnected.  
Disconnect from an active conference call while allowing the other callers to  
remain connected.  
Ability to create N-way conference.  
Join two active calls together into a conference call.  
Incoming or outgoing active call can join any of the existing conferences.  
If the administrator does not configure centralized conferencing, then the IP  
phone uses localized conferencing by default.  
Note: When you configure centralized conferencing globally for an IP  
Phone, the global settings apply to all lines. Although, for the global  
setting to work on soft lines, the user must configure the lines with the  
applicable phone number.  
An Administrator can configure centralized conferencing on a global or per-line  
basis using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.

Authentication Support for HTTP/HTTPS Download Methods, used  
with Broadsoft Client Management System (CMS)  
The IP phones support HTTP/HTTPS digest authentication as defined in  
RFC 2617. (The HTTP client supports digest authentication; the HTTP server  
does not; the HTTP server supports basic authentication). This feature allows the  
phones to interoperate with Broadsoft’s CMS phone configuration tool.  
Using the configuration files, you can enable/disable the following parameter to  
display a LOG IN softkey which allows the HTTP/HTTPS server to perform  
digest authentication:  
http digest force login - specifies whether or not to display the LOG IN  
softkey on the IP Phone UI screen. Valid values are 0 (disabled) or 1  
(enabled). Default is 0 (disabled).  
If the “http digest force login” parameter is set to 1 (enabled), after the phone  
boots, the LOG IN softkey displays on the phone’s LCD. If the user presses this  
softkey, a username/password screen displays, allowing the user to enter the  
configured username and password that is sent to the HTTP/HTTPS server for  
digest authentication by the server. By default, username is “aastra” and  
password is “aastra”. You can enter the username and password in two ways:  
Using the configuration files, you can change the default values for the  
following parameters:  
http digest username - specifies the username to use for HTTP/HTTPS  
digest authentication.  
http digest password - specifies the password to use for HTTP/HTTPS  
digest authentication.  
By enabling the “http digest force login” parameter (setting to 1) - the phone  
displays the LOG IN key so the user can enter the default username/password  
via the IP Phone UI.

Feature  
Description  
Transport Layer Security (TLS)  
Allows you to enable or disable the use of Persistent  
Transport Layer Security (TLS).  
Persistent TLS sets up the connection to the server once  
and re-uses that connection for all calls from the phone. The  
setup connection for Persistent TLS is established during the  
registration of the phone. If the phones are set to use  
Persistent TLS, and a call is made from the phone, this call  
and all subsequent calls use the same authenticated  
connection. This significantly reduces the delay time when  
placing a call.  
802.1x Support  
Allows you to enable or disable the 802.1x Protocol support  
on the IP Phones.  
Symmetric UDP Signaling  
Allows you to enable or disable the phone to use port 5060  
to send SIP UDP messages.  
Removing UserAgent and Server SIP  
Headers  
Allows you to enable or disable the addition of the  
User-Agent and Server SIP headers in the SIP stack.  
Multi-Stage Digit Collection (Billing Codes)  
Support (for Sylantro Servers)  
IP Phones support Sylantro Server features, like mandatory  
and optional billing codes that require the application server  
to notify the phone to collect more digits before completing  
the call. The IP phone is able to collect digits in two stages to  
support the billing code feature.  
Configurable DNS Queries  
Allows you to specify the Domain Name Service (DNS)  
query method to use when the phone performs a DNS  
lookup.  
Ignore Out of Sequence Errors  
Allows you to configure the phone to ignore CSeq number  
errors on all SIP dialogs on the phone.

MAC Address/Line Number in REGISTER Messages  
The IP phones can send the MAC address and line number in the REGISTER  
packets making it easier for the call server when a user configures the phones via  
the Aastra Web UI or the IP Phone UI. The following two configurable headers  
send this information to the call server:  
Aastra-Mac: <mac address>  
Aastra-Line: <line number>  
The MAC address is sent in uppercase hex numbers, for example,  
00085D03C792. The line number is a number between 1 and 9.  
The following parameters allow you to enable/disable the sending of MAC  
address and line number to the call server:  
sip send mac  
sip send line  
These parameters are disabled by default. The parameters are configurable via the  
configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.

SIP Message Sequence for Blind Transfer  
The SIP message sequence for Blind Transfer avoids the transfer target having  
two simultaneous calls. Prior to release 1.4, a CANCEL message was sent to the  
transfer target (if it was in a ringing state) after sending a REFER to the transferee  
to complete the transfer. In the 1.4 and later releases, the CANCEL is now sent  
before the REFER message.  
The following parameter allows the system administrator to force the phone to use  
the Blind Transfer method available in software versions prior to 1.4:  
sip cancel after blind transfer  
This parameter is configurable via the configuration files only.

Auto-discovery Using mDNS  
The IP phones can perform an auto-discovery of all servers on a network using  
mDNS. When the IP phone discovers a TFTP server, it is automatically  
configured by that TFTP server.  
An unconfigured phone (phone right out of the box) added to a network, attempts  
to auto-discover a configuration server on the network without any end-user  
intervention. When it receives DHCP option 66 (TFTP server), it automatically  
gets configured by the TFTP server.  
An already configured phone (either previously configured by auto-discovery or  
manually configured) added to a network, uses its predefined configuration to  
boot up.  
Notes:  
1. Configuration parameters received via DHCP do not constitute  
configuration information, with the exception of a TFTP server.  
Therefore, you can plug a phone into a DHCP environment, still use the  
auto-discovery process, and still allow the use of the TFTP server  
parameter to set the configuration server.  
2. DHCP option 66 (TFTP server details) overrides the mDNS phase of  
the auto-discovery. Therefore, the DHCP option takes priority and the  
remaining process of auto-discovery continues.  
3. As the phone performs auto-discovery, all servers in the network  
(including the TFTP server), display in the phone window. However, only  
the server configured for TFTP automatically configures the phone.

either the base unit or the handset, any other attempt to make an active call is put  
on hold. Also, when this feature is disabled, more than one call can negotiate

Missed Call Summary Subscription  
The “Missed Call Summary Subscription” feature allows missed calls that have  
been redirected by the server, to be incremented in the missed calls indicator on  
the phone it was initially directed to. This feature is called the Missed Call  
Summary Subscription and can be set with a timer that allows the phone to use the  
feature for a period of time before the timer expires. For this feature to work, you  
must configure voicemail on the phone that the call was initially directed to.  
For example, phones A, B, and C are connected to the server. You configure the  
server to direct calls coming into phone B (which has voicemail configured) to be  
forwarded to phone C. When phone A calls phone B, the server forwards the call  
to phone C. With this feature, phone B receives notification from the server that  
the call was forwarded and the missed calls indicator is incremented on phone B.

As-Feature-Event Subscription  
The IP phones support server-side Do Not Disturb (DND), Call Forward  
(CFWD), and Automatic Call Distribution (ACD) feature events.This feature is  
called “as-feature-event” and works with the DND, CFWD, and ACD keys.  
Notes:  
1. The 51i supports server-side DND and CFWD only.  
2. The DND, CFWD, and ACD server-side feature is not applicable to  
the CT handset.  
This feature is configurable using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.  
How it Works on the Phone UI  
When you enable the “as-feature-event” on the phone, AND you activate a DND,  
CFWD, and/or ACD key, pressing the key performs as follows:  
If the key is configured for an account on the phone, the server applies DND,  
CFWD or ACD to that account. (For information about CFWD and DND  
account configuration, see Chapter 3, the section, “Account Configuration”  
on page 3-34).  
If the key is “custom” configured, a screen displays on the phone allowing the  
user to choose the account to apply DND or CFWD. (For information about  
CFWD and DND custom configuration, see Chapter 3, the section, “Account  
Configuration” on page 3-34).  
A solid “Message Waiting Indicator” (MWI) indicates if one line/account has  
DND or CFWD enabled, and the LED next to the DND/CFWD key is ON. A  
status displays on the LCD that indicates the status of the line in focus (for  
example, the status of CFWD could be “Call Forward Busy” (CFWDB) or  
“Call Forward No Answer” (CFWDNA).  
Note: If the ACD key is configured on the phone, and the  
“as-feature-event” is not enabled, the phones uses the ACD icons and  
LED behavior from a Sylantro server instead.

Blacklist Duration  
The Blacklist Duration feature helps to reduce unnecessary delays during proxy/  
registrar server failures, caused by the IP phone repeatedly sending SIP messages  
to a failed server. If you enable this feature, then whenever the IP phone sends a  
SIP message to a server, and does not get a response, the phone automatically  
adds the server to the blacklist. The IP phone avoids sending messages to any  
servers on the blacklist. If all servers are on the blacklist, then the IP phone  
attempts to send the message to the first server on the list.  
You can specify how long failed servers remain on the blacklist in the IP phone’s  
configuration file or in the Aastra Web UI. The default setting is 300 seconds. If  
you set the duration to 0 seconds, then you disable the blacklist feature.

IP Phone Administrator Guide  
Advanced Operational Features  
Transport Layer Security (TLS)  
The IP Phones support a transport protocol called Transport Layer Security  
(TLS) and Persistent TLS. TLS is a protocol that ensures communication  
privacy between the SIP phones and the Internet. TLS ensures that no third party  
may eavesdrop or tamper with any message.  
TLS is composed of two layers: the TLS Record Protocol and the TLS handshake  
protocol. The TLS Record Protocol provides connection security with some  
encryption method such as the Data Encryption Standard (DES). The TLS  
Handshake Protocol allows the server and client to authenticate each other and to  
negotiate an encryption algorithm and cryptographic keys before data is  
exchanged. TLS requires the use of the following security certificate files to  
perform TLS handshake:  
Root and Intermediate Certificates  
Local Certificate  
Private Key  
Trusted Certificate  
When the phones use TLS to authenticate with the server, each individual call  
must setup a new TLS connection. This can take more time when placing each  
call. Thus, the IP phones also have a feature that allows you to setup the  
connection to the server once and re-use that one connection for all calls from the  
phone. It is called Persistent TLS. The setup connection for Persistent TLS is  
established during the registration of the phone. If the phones are set to use  
Persistent TLS, and a call is made from the phone, this call and all subsequent  
calls use the same authenticated connection. This significantly reduces the delay  
time when placing a call.

Advanced Operational Features  
Notes:  
1. Persistent TLS requires the outbound proxy server and outbound  
proxy port parameters be configured in either the configuration files or  
the Aastra Web UI (Advanced Settings->Global SIP->Basic SIP Network  
Settings). There can be only one persistent TLS connection created per  
phone. The phone establishes the TLS connection to the configured  
outbound proxy.  
2.  
If you configure the phone to use Persistent TLS, you must also  
specify the Trusted Certificate file to use. The Root and Intermediate  
Certificates, Local Certificate, and Private Key files are optional.  
On the IP phones, an Administrator can configure TLS and Persistent TLS on a  
global-basis only, using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.  
SIP Asserted Identity (for Sylantro Servers)  
The IP Phones support a private extension to the SIP, Asserted Identity (SAI)  
within Trusted Networks (as defined in RFC 3325), inside the User Agent Server  
(UA) in the Aastra IP phones.  
Note: The phones support PAI header in the UPDATE message,  
according to draft-ietf-sipping-update-pai-00. This feature is always  
enabled.  
If an UPDATE is received with a PAI header from a trusted source, the  
phone updates the display with this information. The phone ignores any  
PAI received from untrusted entities  
This feature allows a network of trusted SIP servers to assert the identity of  
authenticated users, and verify that phone messages originate from a Trusted  
Identity. Upon receiving a message from a caller in the Trust Network, the IP  
phone reads the contents of the P-Asserted-Identity (PAI) header field and  
displays it on the phone UI. This field contains a more accurate description of the  
caller identity (extension/phone number) than is contained in the SIP message.

Advanced Operational Features  
When an IP phone receives an incoming call, the IP phone does the following  
actions:  
Checks to see if the incoming call is from a registered proxy server.  
If the call is forwarded via a registered proxy server, then the message has  
already been verified and authenticated by the server. The caller is part of the  
Trust Network. The IP phone UI displays the caller information contained in  
the PAI header.  
If the call is not forwarded via a registered proxy server - and therefore is not  
a “Trusted Entity” - the IP phone UI does not display any trust information  
contained in the PAI header.  
Configuring TLS Using the Configuration Files  
You use the following parameters to configure TLS in the configuration files:  
• sip transport protocol  
• sips persistent tls  
• sips root and intermediate certificates  
• sips local certificate  
• sips private key  
Configuration Files  
For the specific parameters you can set in the configuration files for setting TLS, see Appendix A, the  
section, “Transport Layer Security (TLS) Settings” on page A-100.

Configuring TLS Using the Aastra Web UI  
To configure TLS using the Aastra Web UI, you must enable TLS or Persistent  
TLS first. Then you must define the TLS certificate file names that you want the  
phone to use. Use the following procedure to configure TLS using the Aastra Web  
UI.  
Aastra Web UI

In the "Transport Protocol" field, select TLS or Persistent TLS.  
Note: If configuring Persistent TLS, you must go to Advanced Settings->Global SIP->Basic Network  
Settings and configure the “Outbound Proxy Server” and “Outbound Proxy Port” parameters.

Enter the certificate file names and the private key file name in the appropriate fields.  
The Root and Intermediate Certificate files contain one root certificate and zero or more intermediate  
certificates which must be placed in order of certificate signing with root certificate being the first in  
the file. If the local certificate is signed by some well known certificate authority, then that authority  
provides the user with the Root and Intermediate Certificate files (most likely just CA root certificate).  
The Trusted Certificate files define a list of trusted certificates. The phone’s trusted list must contain  
the CA root certificates for all the servers it is connecting to. For example, if the phone is connecting  
to server A which has a certificate signed by CA1, and server B which has a certificate signed by  
CA2, the phone must have CA1 root certificate and CS2 root certificate in its Trusted Certificate file.  
Notes:  
1. If configuring TLS, you must specify the files for Root and Intermediate Certificates, the Local  
Certificate, the Private Key, and the Trusted Certificates in order for the phone to receive calls.  
2. If configuring Persistent TLS, you must specify the Trusted Certificates (which contains the trusted  
certificate list). All other certificates and the Private Key are optional.  
3. The certificate files and Private Key file names must use the format “.pem”.  
4. To create custom certificate files and private key files to use on your IP phone, contact Aastra

802.1x Support  
The IP phones support the IEEE 802.1x protocol. The 802.1x protocol is a  
standard for passing Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) over a wired or  
wireless Local Area Network (LAN).  
The 802.1x protocol on the IP phone facilitates media-level access control, and  
offers the capability to permit or deny network connectivity, control LAN access,  
and apply traffic policy, based on user or endpoint identity. This feature supports  
both the EAP-MD5 and EAP-TLS protocols.  
If 802.1x on the phone is enabled, the following screen displays during startup of  
the phone.  
>> 10%  
802.1x Authenticating....  
If the 802.1x failed to authenticate with the server, the phone continues it's normal  
startup process using DHCP. However, the network port on the phone may or may  
not be disabled, depending on the switch configuration.  
Certificates and Private Key Information  
If the certificates and private key are NOT stored in the phone:  
— the phone connects to an open unauthenticated VLAN and the certificates  
are downloaded.  
or  
— the phone connects using EAP-MD5 to a restricted VLAN and the  
certificates are downloaded.

If the certificates and private key ARE stored in the phone, the phone uses  
them during the authentication process.  
If the phone uses EAP-TLS for successful authentication, after the phone  
reboots, it downloads the latest certificates and private key files to the phone.  
The private key uses AES-128 to encrypt the private key file.  
Switch Supplicant Mode - The switch supports the following 2 modes:  
Single supplicant - This mode enables the port once any machine  
connected to this port is authenticated. For security reasons, the IP phone  
has the option to disable the pass-through port.  
Multiple supplicants - Using this mode, the switch can support multiple  
clients connected to same port. The switch distinguishes between the  
clients based on their MAC address.  
Factory default and recovery mode deletes all certificates and private keys,  
and sets the EAP type to disabled.  
You can configure the 802.1x feature on the IP phone using the configuration  
files, the IP Phone UI, or the Aastra Web UI.  
Note: If configuring 802.1x using the IP Phone UI, the certificates  
and private keys must already be configured and stored on the phone.  
Use the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI to load certificates  
and private keys.

for UDP messages using port 5060.  
You can manually disable symmetric UDP signaling using the IP phone’s  
configuration file. When you disable symmetric UDP signaling, then the IP phone  
chooses a random source port for UDP messages.  
The IP phone also chooses a random source port for UDP messages if you

Multi-Stage Digit Collection (Billing Codes) Support (for Sylantro  
Servers)  
The IP Phones support Multi-Stage Digit Collection (billing codes) for Sylantro  
Servers. Sylantro Server features, like mandatory and optional billing codes,  
requires that the application server notify the phone to collect more digits before  
completing the call. The IP phone is able to collect digits in two stages to support  
the billing code feature.  
Aastra IP Phone users are prompted to enter the correct billing code when they  
dial these numbers:  
External numbers.  
Eternal numbers dialed using a Speeddial key.  
Billing Codes Implementation Notes  
Note the following implementation information:  
IP phone users may enter a 2-9 digit billing code. Billing codes may not start  
with either 0 (Operator) or 9 (external calls).  
When using Sylantro Click-to-Call, IP phone users select a billing code from  
a pull-down menu.  
When placing a call, a secondary dial tone alerts IP phone users to enter the  
billing code. The IP phone UI also displays a “Enter Billing Code” message.  
If an IP phone user redials a number, they do not have to re-enter the billing  
code. The billing code information is maintained and processed accordingly.  
If an IP phone user enters an invalid billing code, the call fails.  
Mandatory versus Optional Billing Codes  
This release of the Aastra IP phones supports two types of billing codes:  
Mandatory and Optional. The Sylantro server configuration determines which  
type of billing code is used on the IP phones.  
Mandatory billing codes: Calls are not connected until the user enters a valid  
billing code. The user dials the phone number. When prompted for billing  
codes, user dials the billing code.

For example, suppose the IP phone user is using billing code 300, and dialing  
the external number 617-238-5500. The IP user then enters the number using  
the following format:  
6172385000#300  
Using mandatory billing codes, if the user is configuring a Speeddial number,  
then they enter the number using the following format:  
<phonenumber>%23<billingcode>  
To use this format with the default dial plan terminator (#), the # sign required  
by Sylantro as a delimiter should be represented as an escaped character by  
using the sequence %23. The speed dial format for an external number that  
includes a mandatory billing code becomes:  
<phonenumber>%23<billing code>  
Optional billing codes: The user dials an optional billing code by dialing  
*50, followed by the billing code digits. When prompted for additional digits,  
user enters the phone number.  
For example, suppose the IP phone user is using billing code 500, and dialing  
the external number 617-238-5000. The IP user then enters the number using  
the following format:  
*50500#6172385000  
If the user is dialing configuring a Speeddial number, then they enter the  
number using the following format:

Configurable DNS Queries  
The domain name system (DNS) is the way that Internet domain names are  
located and translated into Internet Protocol addresses. A domain name is a  
meaningful and easy-to-remember identifier for an Internet address.  
The lists of domain names and IP addresses are distributed throughout the Internet  
in a hierarchy of authority within a database of records. There is usually a DNS  
server within close proximity to your geographic location that maps the domain  
names in your Internet requests or forwards them to other servers in the Internet.  
The IP Phones support three methods of DNS lookups allowing it to adapt to  
various deployment environments: eNone, eSRV, and eNAPTR&SRV. (See the  
following table for a description of each method). When the IP Phone accesses the  
Internet, it sends out a DNS query to the proxy to lookup the IP address and the  
port, and then waits for a response from the proxy.  
You can configure the phone to use any one of these methods by entering the  
applicable value in the configuration files:.  
Configuration DNS Server  
Description  
File Value  
Method Used  
0
A only  
The phone sends “A” (Host IP Address) lookup for the IP address  
and uses the default port number of 5060.  
1
2
SRV & A  
The phone sends “SRV” (Service Location Record) lookup to get  
the port number. Most often, the IP address is included in the  
response from the DNS server to avoid extra queries. If there is no  
IP address returned in the response, the phone sends out the “A”  
DNS lookup to find the IP address.  
NAPTR & SRV & A First, the phone sends "NAPTR" (Naming Authority Pointer) lookup  
to get the “SRV” pointer and service type (such as "aastra.com  
SIP+2DT .... _sip.tcp.aastra.net", which means the service prefers  
to use TCP and "_sip.tcp.aastra.net" for the SRV query instead of  
the default "_sip._tcp.aastra.com"). If the NAPTR record is  
returned empty then the default value is used, so in the same case,  
the phone will use "_sip._udp.aastra.com" for the next step lookup.  
Next, the phone does SRV lookup to get the IP address and port  
number. If there is no IP address in the SRV response then it  
sends out and “A” lookup to get it.

IP Phone Administrator Guide  
Advanced Operational Features  
Ignore Out of Sequence Errors  
An Administrator can configure the phone via the “sip accept out of order  
requests” parameter to ignore CSeq number errors on all SIP dialogs on the  
phone. When this parameter is enabled, the phone no longer verifies that the  
sequence numbers increase for each message within a dialog, and does not report  
a "CSeq Out of Order" error if they do not increase.  
Note: As the default Asterisk configuration does not fully track dialogs  
through a reboot, it is recommended that this parameter be enabled when  
using the BLF feature with an Asterisk server. If you do not enable this  
feature, then rebooting the Asterisk server may cause BLF to stop  
working. With this parameter enabled, the BLF key starts working again  
when the phone re-subscribes, which by default, are one hour apart.  
An Administrator can enable/disable this feature using the configuration files  
only.  
Enabling/Disabling “Out of Order SIP Requests”  
Use the following procedure to enable/disable “out of order SIP requests”.  
Configuration Files  
For the specific parameter you can set in the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section, “Ignore Out of  
Order SIP Requests” on page A-232.

IP Phone Administrator Guide  
Encrypted Files on the IP Phone  
Encrypted Files on the IP Phone  
An encryption feature for the IP phone allows Service Providers the capability of  
storing encrypted files on their server to protect against unauthorized access and  
tampering of sensitive information (i.e., user accounts, login passwords,  
registration information). Service Providers also have the capability of locking a  
phone to use a specific server-provided configuration only.  
Configuration File Encryption Method  
Only a System Administrator can encrypt the configurations files for an IP Phone.  
System Administrators use a password distribution scheme to manually  
pre-configure or automatically configure the phones to use the encrypted  
configuration with a unique key.  
From a Microsoft Windows command line, the System Administrator uses an  
Aastra-supplied encryption tool called "anacrypt.exe" to encrypt the <MAC>.tuz  
file.  
Note: Aastra also supplies encryption tools to support Linux platforms  
(anacrypt.linux) and Solaris platforms (anacrypt.sunos) if required.  
This tool processes the plain text <mac>.cfg and aastra.cfg files and creates  
triple-DES encrypted versions called <mac>.tuz and aastra.tuz. Encryption is  
performed using a secret password that is chosen by the administrator.  
The encryption tool is also used to create an additional encrypted tag file called  
security.tuz, which controls the decryption process on the IP phones. If  
security.tuz is present on the TFTP/FTP/HTTP server, the IP phones download it  
and use it locally to decrypt the configuration information from the aastra.tuz and  
<mac>.tuz files. Because only the encrypted versions of the configuration files  
need to be stored on the server, no plain-text configuration or passwords are sent  
across the network, thereby ensuring security of the configuration data.

Encrypted Files on the IP Phone  
Encrypted Files on the IP Phone  
To make changes to the configuration files, the System Administrator must save  
the original files.  
Note: If the use of encrypted configuration files is enabled (via  
security.tuz or pre-provisioned on the IP phone) the aastra.cfg and  
<mac>.cfg files are ignored, and only the encrypted equivalent files  
aastra.tuz and <mac>.tuz are read.  
The security feature described above prevents unauthorized parties from reading  
or writing the contents of the <MAC>.tuz file. It also provides the following:  
Prevents users from using the <MAC>.tuz file that does not match the user’s  
phone MAC address.  
Renders the <MAC>.tuz file invalid if the user renames the file.  
Works with IP phone releases prior to Release 2.2.  
Provides compatibility between the previous encryption routine and the new  
decryption routine.

Usage:  
anacrypt {infile.cfg|-d <dir>} [-p password] [-m] [-i] [-v] [-h]  
Anacrypt Switch  
Description  
{infile.cfg | -d <dir>} Specifies that all .cfg files in <dir> should be encrypted  
[-p password]  
-m  
Specifies password used to generate keys  
Generate MAC.tuz files that are phone specific. This switch generates files that are  
only usable for phones with firmware version 2.2.0 and above.  
-i  
Generate security.tuz file  
-v  
Specifies the version of encryption that the anacrypt tool uses. Use version 1 encryption  
(i.e., -v1) to generate firmware that is readable by all model phones. Without the -v1  
switch, the anacrypt tool generates files that are only readable by phones with  
firmware 2.2.0 and above.  
-h  
Display program help text  
Note: Incorrect password produces garbage. For site-specific keyfile  
security.cfg the plaintext must match password.

Vendor Configuration File Encryption  
Some vendors can have specific methods to encrypt files on their configuration  
servers. For each phone, the configuration server can generate a random hex string  
(encryption key) that is used to encrypt the phone’s MAC-specific configuration  
file.  
The encryption key is placed in a plain text MAC-specific configuration file that  
the server downloads to the phone. After the phone receives the file, it updates the  
encryption key.  
This method of encryption does not affect the implementation of the Aastra  
method of file encryption.  
Note: The aastra.cfg file is not encrypted with this feature.  
You can set the phone-specific encryption key using the configuration files only.  
For more information about configuration file encryption, contact Aastra  
Technical Support.

IP Phone Administrator Guide  
Upgrading the Firmware  
Upgrading the Firmware  
The IP phone uses a TFTP, FTP, or HTTP server (depending on the protocol  
configured on the IP phone) to download configuration files and firmware.  
The configuration server should be ready and be able to accept connections. For  
information on setting up the configuration server, see Chapter 1, the section,  
“Configuration Server Requirement” on page 1-35.  
You can download the firmware stored on the configuration server in one of three  
ways:  
Manual firmware update using the Aastra Web UI (TFTP only).  
Manual update of firmware and configuration files (by restarting the phone  
via the IP phone UI or the Aastra Web UI).  
Automatic update of firmware, configuration files, or both at a specific time  
in a 24-hour period (via the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI).  
Manual Firmware Update (TFTP only)  
Use the following procedure to activate a firmware download using TFTP.  
Warning: Do not reset or turn off the phone until the download is  
complete.  
Note: This procedure allows you to download the <phone model.st> file  
from a TFTP server even if your phone is configured to use HTTP or FTP.

Upgrading the Firmware  
Automatic Update (auto-resync)  
The auto-resync feature on the IP phones allows an administrator to enable the  
phone to be updated automatically once a day at a specific time in a 24-hour  
period if the files on the server have changed. This feature works with TFTP, FTP,  
and HTTP servers. An administrator can enable this feature using the Aastra Web  
UI or using the configuration files (aastra.cfg and <mac>.cfg).  
Note: The automatic update feature works with both encrypted and plain  
text configuration files.  
When configuring via the Aastra Web UI, the administrator sets the following  
parameters:  
Mode Time  
The Mode parameter determines the type of update that the IP phone performs:  
configuration file only, firmware only, or both.  
The Time parameter sets the period of time for which the IP phone is  
automatically updated.  
When configuring via the configuration files, the following parameters must be  
set:  
auto-resync mode  
auto-resync time

Upgrading the Firmware  
Upgrading the Firmware  
Configuring Automatic Update  
Use the following procedures to configure automatic update of the IP phone  
firmware, configuration files, or both.  
Notes:  
1. If a user is accessing the Aastra Web UI, they are not informed of an  
auto-reboot.  
2. Any changes made using the Aastra Web UI or the IP phone UI are  
not overwritten by an auto-resync update. Auto-resync affects the  
configuration files only. However, the settings in the Aastra Web UI take  
precedence over the IP phone UI and the configuration files.  
3. If the IP phone is in use (not idle) at the time of the resync check, the  
reboot occurs when the phone becomes idle.  
4. The resync time is based on the local time of the IP phone.  
5. Auto-Resync adds up to 15 minutes random time to the configured  
time. For example, if the auto resync time parameter is set to 02:00, the  
event takes place any time between 02:00 and 02:15. This prevents  
several phones from accessing the server at the exact same time.  
Configuration Files  
For specific parameters you can set in the configuration files for automatic update, see Appendix A, the  
section, “Configuration Server Settings” on page A-17.

WatchDog Task Feature  
The IP Phones include a troubleshooting feature called the “WatchDog” task that  
monitors the status of the phones and provides the ability to get stack traces from  
the last time the phone failed. When the phone detects a failure (i.e., a crash), it  
automatically reboots. You can view a WatchDog crash file using the Aastra Web  
UI at the path, Advanced Settings->Troubleshooting. You can enable/disable the  
WatchDog task using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.  
Enabling/Disabling WatchDog  
Use the following procedure to enable/disable the WatchDog.

Troubleshooting Solutions  
Description  
This section describes solutions to some most common problems that can occur  
while using the IP phones.  
Why does my phone display “Application missing”?  
If you have experienced networking issues while the phone was downloading the  
application from the TFTP server, it is possible that the phone can no longer  
retrieve the required firmware file. In the event that the phone is no longer able to  
communicate with the TFTP server in its attempt to re-download the firmware and  
the phone cannot locate the application locally, the message "Application  
missing" displays.  
The phone also displays the following: “Recovery web-client at: <IP Address>”.  
The IP Address displayed is the IP address of the phone. If the phone is unable to  
receive an IP from the DHCP server or has lost its record of its static IP, the phone  
auto-assigns itself the default IP 192.168.0.50.  
To recover the firmware for your phone in this circumstance, please perform the  
following:  
1. Launch your web browser on your computer.  
Note: Your computer needs to be on the same network as your IP Phone.  
2. In the URL, type: “http://<IP Address>” (where IP Address is the IP Address  
displayed on the phone). Your browser launches the Aastra IP Phone  
Firmware Recovery page.  
3. Call Customer Support and request a <phone model>.st file.  
4. Copy the file to your TFTP server.  
5. Enter the <phone model>.st file that is ready for download.  
6. Enter the IP address or qualified domain name of the TFTP server.  
7. Press the Download Firmware button.

IP Phone Administrator Guide  
Troubleshooting Solutions  
Please ensure that the TFTP server is running and accessible on the network. If the  
firmware file is correctly located on the running TFTP server, the phone will  
locate the file and reload the application onto the phone.  
Why does my phone display the “No Service” message?  
The phone displays the “No Service” message if the SIP settings have not been set  
up correctly.  
The Registrar server could be set to 0.0.0.0. A global value of 0.0.0.0 disables  
registration. However, the phone is still active and you can dial using  
username@ip address of the phone. The phone displays "No Service".  
If the Registrar IP address is set to 0.0.0.0 for a per-line basis (i.e, line 1, line 2,  
etc.), then the register request is not sent, the "No Service" message does not  
display, and the message waiting indicator (MWI) does not come on.  
Check that the "Registrar Server" IP address in the Aastra Web UI at Advanced  
Settings->Global SIP is correct. Check the "sip registrar ip" parameter in the  
configuration files is correct.  
Why does my phone display "Bad Encrypted Config"?  
The IP phone displays "Bad Encrypted Config" because encrypted configuration  
files are enabled but the decryption process has failed. Specific cases where  
decryption fails are:  
Reason:  
The site-specific password in security.tuz does not match the password used to  
encrypt the <mac>.tuz or aastra.tuz files.  
Fix:  
Encrypt the .cfg files to .tuz using the correct password, or replace the security.tuz  
with the correct encrypted file.

Troubleshooting  
Troubleshooting Solutions  
Reason:  
Neither of the <mac>.tuz and aastra.tuz files are present on the configuration  
server (TFTP/FTP/HTTP).  
Fix:  
Create the encrypted files using anacrypt.exe and copy them to the configuration  
server.  
Reason:  
The encrypted <mac>.tuz or aastra.tuz file is encrypted using a different version  
of anacrypt.exe than the phone firmware.  
Fix:  
Run "anacrypt.exe -v" and confirm that the correct version is reported, compared  
to the phone firmware version.  
Why is my phone not receiving the TFTP IP address from the DHCP  
Server?  
For DHCP to automatically populate the IP address or qualified domain name for  
the TFTP server, your DHCP server must support Option 66. Option 66 is  
responsible for forwarding the TFTP server IP address or domain name to the  
phone automatically. If your DHCP server does not support Option 66, you must  
manually enter the IP address or qualified domain name for the TFTP server into  
your IP phone configuration.  
For procedures on configuring the TFTP server using the IP phone UI and the  
Aastra Web UI, see Chapter 4, the section, “Configuring the Configuration Server  
Protocol” on page 4-104.  
For specific protocol parameters you can set in the configuration files, see  
Appendix A, the section, “Configuration Server Settings” on page A-17.

Setting Parameters in Configuration Files  
Setting Parameters in Configuration Files  
You can set specific configuration parameters in the configuration files for  
configuring you IP phone. The aastra.cfg and <mac>.cfg files are stored on the  
server. The aastra.cfg file stores global IP phone configuration settings. The  
<mac>.cfg file stores configuration settings specific to the IP phone with that  
MAC address. When you restart the IP phone, these files are downloaded to the  
phone.  
If you make changes to the phone configuration, the changes are stored in a local  
configuration on the phone (not on the server).  
Configuration changes made to the <mac>.cfg file override the configuration  
settings in the aastra.cfg file.  
Note: Configuration parameters that you enter in the configuration files

Notes:  
1. It is recommended that you avoid the conflict RTP port range in case  
of a UDP transport.  
2. By default, the IP phones use symmetric UDP signaling for outgoing  
UDP SIP messages. When symmetric UDP is enabled, the IP phone  
generates and listens for UDP messages using port 5060.If symmetric  
UDP signaling is disabled, the phone sends from random ports but it  
listens on the configured SIP local port.

For Sylantro Server:  
When configuring the BLA feature on a Sylantro server, the value set for  
the sip lineN bla number parameter shall be the same value set for the  
sip lineN user name parameter for all the phones in the group. For  
example, if sip lineN user name is 1010, you would configure BLA on a  
per-line basis for the Sylantro server as follows:  
sip line1 user name: 1010(# for all the phones)  
sip line1 bla number: 1010  
For ININ Server:  
When configuring the BLA feature on an ININ server, the value set for the  
sip lineN bla number parameter shall be the same value set for the sip  
lineN user name parameter without the incremented digit added to the  
phone #. For example, if the sip lineN user name for the first phone is  
10101, and the sip lineN user name for the second phone is 10102, etc.  
you would configure BLA on a per-line basis for the ININ server as  
follows:

which the IP phone uses to send REGISTER requests if the primary  
registrar is unavailable.  
A global value of 0.0.0.0 disables backup registration. However, the  
phone is still active and you can dial using username@ip address of the  
phone.  
If the backup registrar IP address is set to 0.0.0.0 for a per-line basis (i.e,  
line 1, line 2, etc.), then the backup register request is not sent, the "No  
Service" message does not display, and the message waiting indicator  
(MWI) does not come on.

Transport Layer Security (TLS) Settings  
To configure TLS, you must enter the “sip transport protocol” parameter with a  
value of “4” (TLS). See the “sip transport protocol” description on page A-92.  
Also enter the following parameters in the configuration files to configure TLS:  
Parameter –  
Configuration Files  
aastra.cfg, <mac>.cfg  
sips persistent tls  
Description  
Enables or disables the use of Persistent Transport Layer Security (TLS).  
Persistent TLS sets up the connection to the server once and re-uses that  
connection for all calls from the phone. The setup connection for  
Persistent TLS is established during the registration of the phone. If the  
phones are set to use Persistent TLS, and a call is made from the phone,  
this call and all subsequent calls use the same authenticated connection.  
This significantly reduces the delay time when placing a call.  
Notes:  
1. Persistent TLS requires the outbound proxy server and outbound  
proxy port parameters be configured in either the configuration files or the  
Aastra Web UI (Advanced Settings->Global SIP->Basic SIP Network  
Settings). There can be only one persistent TLS connection created per  
phone. The phone establishes the TLS connection to the configured  
outbound proxy.  
2. If you configure the phone to use Persistent TLS, you must also  
specify the Trusted Certificate file to use. The Root and Intermediate  
Certificates, Local Certificate, and Private Key files are optional.

Description  
Allows you to specify the SIP Root and Intermediate Certificate files to use  
when the phone uses the TLS transport protocol to setup a call.  
The Root and Intermediate Certificate files contain one root certificate and  
zero or more intermediate certificates which must be placed in order of  
certificate signing with root certificate being the first in the file. If the local  
certificate is signed by some well known certificate authority, then that  
authority provides the user with the Root and Intermediate Certificate files  
(most likely just CA root certificate).  
This parameter is required when configuring TLS (optional for Persistent  
TLS.)  
Note: The certificate files must use the format “.pem”. To create custom  
certificate files to use on your IP phone, contact Aastra Technical Support.

Incoming Call Interrupts Dialing Setting  
Parameter –  
incoming call cancels dialing  
Aastra Web UI:  
Configuration Files  
Basic Settings->Preferences->General  
aastra.cfg, <mac>.cfg  
Incoming Call Interrupts  
Dialing  
(in Web UI)  
Description  
Enables or disables how the phone handles incoming calls while the  
phone is dialing out.  
When you enable this parameter (1 = true), an incoming call interrupts the  
outgoing call during dialing and allows the phone to ring for the user to  
answer the incoming call.  
When you disable this parameter (0 = disable), which is the default, the  
phone does not interrupt the outgoing call during dialing and the number  
you were dialling continues to display in the LCD. The phones sends the  
incoming call to a free line on the phone (or sends busy signal if all  
remaining lines are busy) and the LED for that line blinks. You have a  
choice to ignore the incoming call, or answer the incoming call on another  
line, via the Ignore and Answer softkeys that display. If you choose to  
answer the incoming call, you can answer the call, finish the call, and then  
hang up. You can still go back to the original outgoing call and finish  
dialing out.  
Notes:  
1. On a 9143i, 51i, and 53i, you must use the up and down arrow keys to  
ignore or answer the call.  
2. On all phone models, if you disable this parameter (0=disable), and the  
phone receives an incoming call while you are dialing an outgoing call,  
you can pick up the call and perform transfer or conference as required.  
After enabling or disabling this feature, it takes affect on the phone  
immediately.

Operational, Basic, and Advanced Parameters  
Description (Cont’d)  
Transfer/Conference Call Behavior  
If you are dialing the phone to transfer or conference a call, and your  
phone receives an incoming call, your dialing is never interrupted  
(regardless of whether the “Incoming Call Interrupts Dialing” is enabled or  
disabled). For Transfer and Conference, the incoming calls always go to  
an available line (other than the one you are using for dialing) and the  
incoming call’s line LED blinks. The LCD still displays your dialing screen.  
Intercom Behavior  
If “Incoming Call Interrupts Dialing” (or incoming call cancels dialing  
in config files) is enabled and you are dialing an outgoing Intercom call,  
the enabled interrupt setting takes precedence over an enabled “Allow  
Barge In” setting. The incoming call interrupts your dialing on an outgoing  
intercom call. On an incoming intercom call, the enabled “Allow Barge  
In” and “Auto-Answer” occurs while you are dialing to transfer or  
conference the call. However, the incoming call goes to an available idle  
line, and the LED blinks while you are dialing the second half of the  
conference or transfer.  
If “Incoming Call Interrupts Dialing” (or incoming call cancels dialing  
in config files) is disabled, an incoming intercom goes to an available idle  
line and the LED blinks for that line. The phone answers the call under all  
conditions.  
Format

Range  
0 (disable)

Call Waiting  
(in Web UI)  
Description  
Allows you to enable or disable Call Waiting on the IP phone.  
If you enable call waiting (default), the user has the option of accepting a  
second call while currently on the first call. If you disable call waiting, and  
a user is currently on a call, a second incoming call is automatically  
rejected by the phone with a busy message.  
If you disable call waiting on the phone, and the user is on a call, any  
further incoming calls will receive busy unless “Call Forward Busy” or “Call  
Forward No Answer and Busy” is configured on the phone. It will then  
forward the call according to the rule configured. The phone can only:  
-transfer the currently active call  
or  
accept transferred calls if there is no active calls.  
If call waiting is disabled:  
on the 57i CT base, and the handset is currently on a call, all additional  
incoming calls are rejected on the handset.  
intercom calls are treated as regular incoming calls and are rejected.  
pre-dialing with live dial pad disabled still accepts incoming calls.  
the “Incoming Call Cancels Dialing” parameter is ignored because the  
incoming call is automatically rejected.  
the Missed Calls List does not get updated with details of calls.  
the Blind Transfer feature on the phone may not work if two calls are  
made to the phone at one time.

Directed Call Pickup by Prefix  
(in Web UI)  
Description  
Allows you to enter a specific prefix string (depending on what is  
available on your server), that the phone automatically dials when  
dialing the Directed Call Pickup number.  
For example, for Broadsoft servers, you can enter a value of *98 for the  
directed call pickup prefix”. When the phone performs the Directed  
Call Pickup after pressing a BLF or BLF/List softkey, the phone  
prepends the *98 value to the designated extension of the BLF or BLF/  
List softkey when dialing out.  
Notes:  
1. The default method for the phone to use is Directed Call Pickup over  
BLF if the server provides applicable information. If the Directed Call  
Pickup over BLF information is missing in the messages to the server,  
the Directed Call Pickup by Prefix method is used if a value for the prefix  
code exists in the configuration.  
2. You can define only one prefix at a time for the entire BLF/List.  
3. The phone that picks up displays the prefix code + the extension  
number (for example, *981234 where prefix key = *98, extension =  
1234).  
4. Symbol characters are allowed (for example “*”).

configure a softkey to speeddial a specific number by pressing that  
softkey. Optionally, you can also configure a speeddial key to dial  
prefix numbers. With this option, the prefix numbers automatically dial  
when you press the softkey, and the phone waits for you to enter the  
remaining numbers to dial out.  
Note: When there is an active call, the speeddial keys send DTMF  
digits through the active voice path. To dial out, you have to first put  
the active call on hold and then press the speeddial key.

Advanced Operational Parameters  
DNS Query Setting  
Parameter–  
Configuration Files aastra.cfg, <mac>.cfg  
sip dns query type  
Description  
Specifies the Domain Name Service (DNS) query method to use when the  
phone performs a DNS lookup.  
Format  
Integer  
1
Default Value  
Range  
0
A only - The phone sends “A” (Host IP Address) lookup for the IP  
address and uses the default port number of 5060.  
1
SRV & A - The phone sends “SRV” (Service Location Record) lookup  
to get the port number. Most often, the IP address is included in the  
response from the DNS server to avoid extra queries. If there is no IP  
address returned in the response, the phone sends out the “A” DNS  
lookup to find the IP address.  
2
NAPTR & SRV & A - First, the phone sends "NAPTR" (Naming  
Authority Pointer) lookup to get the “SRV” pointer and service type  
(such as "aastra.com SIP+2DT .... _sip.tcp.aastra.net", which means  
the service prefers to use TCP and "_sip.tcp.aastra.net" for the SRV  
query instead of the default "_sip._tcp.aastra.com"). If the NAPTR  
record is returned empty then the default value is used, so in the same  
case, the phone will use "_sip._udp.aastra.com" for the next step  
lookup.  
Next, the phone does SRV lookup to get the IP address and port  
number. If there is no IP address in the SRV response then it sends out  
and “A” lookup to get it.  
Note: On the phone side, if you configure the phone with a Fully- Qualified  
Domain Name (FQDN) proxy and specified port, the phone always sends “A  
only” lookups to find the Host IP Address of the proxy.

TFTP Server Set-up  
There are a number of TFTP servers available. PumpKIN is one of such  
TFTP servers. Use the keywords “pumpkin TFTP server” on Google and  
you should get the web site where you can download the software  
from. Installing PumpKIN is straightforward. To configure the directory  
from where you would be serving the files, click on the Options button  
on PumpKIN’s main window as shown in the following figure.  
It is important to select the “Give all files” radio button under the “Read Request  
Behavior” category. This makes the files to be served without any manual  
intervention when requested.

If you want to prevent users from writing files to the directory select  
the “Deny all requests” in the “Write Request Behavior” category. Click  
the OK button after you have entered all the required information. All the  
firmware files should be in the file system root directory. Currently we  
do not support downloads from files present in sub-directories. Consult  
PumpKIN’s documentation if you need more information on how to set-up the  
TFTP server.

IP Phone at the Asterisk IP PBX  
The following configuration illustrates how to create a user with an extension to  
make and receive calls using the Asterisk as the PBX. This configuration is  
defined in the sip.conf file present along with the other configuration files that are  
created when Asterisk is installed. Usually, the configuration files can be found at  
the /etc/asterisk directory.  
;This is used in the “extensions.conf” file to identify this  
;physical phone when issuing Dial commands.  
[phone1]  
;The type to use for the 57i is “friend”.  
;”Peer” is used when the Asterisk is contacting a proxy,  
;”user” is used for phones that can only make calls  
;and “friend” acts as both a peer and a user.  
type=friend

;able to use it. In this example' sip' is used. You can use  
;whatever you like, but make sure they are the same, you will  
;need to make an entry in your extensions.conf file (which we  
;will get to later)  
context=sip  
callerid="Phone 1" <1234>  
After this is defined in the “sip.conf” file, some information has to be entered in  
the “extensions.conf” file present in the same directory as the “sip.conf” file. The  
following definition in the file under the [sip]section/context completes defining  
the extension for the 57i phone.  
Table 1:  
exten -> 1234,1,Dial(SIP/phone1,20)  
This definition completes configuring the 57i phone at the IP PBX system.  
To verify whether the extension has been successfully registered at the IP PBX  
system, enter the Asterisk console and reload Asterisk. Use the command “sip  
show peers” at the console. This will display the extensions that are registered at  
the IP PBX system.

This completes the basic set-up for the 57i phone with 1234 extension at  
the Asterisk IP PBX system. Refer to Asterisk documentation for set-up on  
extended or advanced features such as voice mail and call forwarding, etc.

Sample Configuration Files  
This section consists of the sample configuration files necessary to configure the  
IP phones. The general format is similar to configuration files used by several  
Unix-based programs. Any text following a number sign (#) on a line is  
considered to be a comment, unless the # is contained within  
double-quotes. Currently, Boolean fields use 0 for false and 1 for true.

# The general format used here is similar to configuration files  
# used by several UNIX-based programs. Any text following a number  
# sign (#) is considered to be a comment, unless the number sign is  
# contained within double-quotes ("#") where it is considered to be

Sample Configuration Files  
# The Aastra 57i, 57iCT, and 53i phones will download 2  
# configuration files from the TFTP server while restarting, the  
# "aastra.cfg" file and the "<mac>.cfg" file. These two configuration  
# files can be used to configure all of the settings of the phone with  
# the exception of assigning a static IP address to a phone and line  
# settings, which should only be set in the "<mac>.cfg" file.  
#
# The "aastra.cfg" file configures the settings server wide, while  
# the "<mac>.cfg" file configures only the phone with the MAC address  
# for which the file is named (for example, "00085d0304f4.cfg"). The  
# settings in the "aastra.cfg" file will be overridden by settings  
# which also appear in the "<mac>.cfg" file.

# Notes:  
#
# DHCP is normally set from the Options list on the phone or

#
# If DHCP is disabled, the following network settings will  
# have to be configured manually either through the configuration  
# files, the Options List in the phone, or the Web Client: IP  
# Address (of the phone), Subnet Mask, Gateway, DNS, and TFTP

# specific ("<mac>.cfg"). Each prgkey needs to be numbered from  
# 1 - 7, for example "prgkey2 type:  
# speeddial". Programmable keys can be set up as speeddials or as  
# additional call/line appearances or as feature keys and have a  
# type, value and line associated with it as seen here in the  
# default programmable settings.

Creating an XML Application  
Creating Custom Softkeys  
Developers can link arbitrary URIs to softkeys in the XML screens and can  
invoke softkey behavior to each XML screen type (Text Menu, Text Screen, User  
Input, Directory). A developer can define up to six softkeys before the closing tag  
of any object on the 9480i/9480i CT and 57i/57i CT.  
The following softkey functionality is available to the developer for the purpose  
of reordering or preserving the default functionality of the XML screens. The  
"Dial" function is available to screens that allow input. The dial string for the  
"Dial" function is taken from the menu items URI on the Menu Screen, and from  
the editor field input on the Input Screen.

IP Phone Administrator Guide  
Creating an XML Application  
Text Menu Object (Menu Screens)  
The Text Menu object allows application developers to create a numerical list of  
menu items on the IP phones. The go-to line support, arrow indicator, and scroll  
key support are built into these objects, along with the "Select" and "Done" soft  
keys. You can also turn off automatic numbering of menu items using the  
style=”none" attribute or use bullets for lists instead of numbers using the  
style=”bullet”.  
The Text Menu object allows users to navigate the application, by linking HTTP  
requests to menu items.  
Implementation  
The following is how you would implement the Text Menu object.  
Note: For all available parameters you can use for the Text Menu object,  
and for an explanation of each parameter, see Aastra Telecom’s  
"XML Developer’s Guide".  
Softkeys:  
1=Select  
6=Done

Text Wrap for XML TextMenu Items  
The AastraIPPhoneTextMenu object supports text wrapping on two lines for its  
items. This is done using a new attribute called "wrapList". This attribute allows  
you to specify the text wrapping to an additional line rather than truncating and  
dropping the text.  
Note: If the menu item begins with more than one large word (with no  
spaces or hyphens), the first full word displays on the first line truncated  
and the next full word displays on the next line.  
The example below illustrates the IP Phone text wrapping prior to Release 2.2,  
and the new text wrapping in Release 2.2 and later.

Creating an XML Application  
Text Screen Object (Text Screens)  
You use the AastraIPPhoneTextScreen object to display text to the LCD screen  
on the IP Phone. The screen text wraps appropriately and can scroll to display a  
message longer then four lines.  
After implementing this object, text displays to the LCD on the IP phone.  
A user can scroll through the screens as required. If you use the  
destroyOnExit” attribute in the XML script, when the user exits the  
XML screeens, the screens are destroyed. You can also allow specific text  
screens to redisplay for redirection to a new page by using the  
doneAction” attribute and specifying the new page to go to in the XML  
script.  
Notes:  
1. You can use the “destroyOnExit” attribute with any XML object as  
required.  
2. You can use the “doneAction” attribute with the  
AastraIPPhoneTextScreen and AastraIPPhoneFormattedTextScreen  
objects only.  
3. For all available parameters you can use for the Text Screen object, and  
for an explanation of each parameter, see Aastra Telecom’s  
"XML Developers Guide".  
Implementation  
The following is how you would implement the Text Screen object.  
Softkey:  
6=Done  
XML Description:

Creating an XML Application  
XML Support for Answer and Ignore Softkeys  
When the IP phone receives an XML application (either via a post or an incoming  
action URI) while a call is coming into the phone, the user can either answer or  
ignore the call with new softkeys that display (9480i, 9480i CT, 55i, 57i, and 57i  
CT), or press the left and right arrow keys (9143i and 53i), without canceling the  
XML application.  
For a 9480i, 9480i CT, 55i, 57i, and 57i CT, an Administrator can use the  
Answer” and “Ignore” attributes in an XML script to implement this feature.  
For a 9143i and 53i, an Administrator can use the “allowAnswer” attribute with  
the AastraIPPhoneTextScreen XML object. Valid values for the “allowAnswer”  
attribute are “yes” or “no” (default).  
For 9480i, 9480i CT, 55i, 57i, and 57i CT:  
The Answer and Ignore softkeys display on the LCD when the phone has an  
incoming call at the same time it receives an XML application.  
XML applications are destroyed if the phone receives a call after the XML  
has been rendered.  
When the Answer softkey displays, you can press it to answer the incoming call  
without disturbing the current XML application. When you answer the call, the  
softkey disappears from the LCD. Pressing the Ignore softkey ignores the  
incoming call without disturbing the current XML application.

Text Screen Format Object (for Text Screens)  
The AastraIPPhoneFormattedTextScreen object allows you to specify a format  
for the text that displays in the LCD window on the phone. Using this object, you  
can specify the following for the text that displays:  
alignment (using the “Align” attribute and specifying right, left, or center )*  
text size (using the “Line Size” attribute and specifying normal or double  
height)*  
display type (using the “Line” or “Scroll” attributes to specify static or  
scrolling)*  
*See the AastraIPPhoneFormattedTextScreen structure example on page G-20.  
The phone’s LCD screen allows up to a total of 5 lines for displaying text. The  
formatted text displays in three distinct blocks in the order it is written in the XML  
object:  
The first block displays text at the top of the LCD window. By default, this  
text block is static. This block can contain as many lines as the XML object  
specifies and can range from zero (0) up to the LCD screen size.

IP Phone Administrator Guide  
Creating an XML Application  
The second block displays below the first block. By default, the second text  
block displays as scrolling text. This block takes up as many lines as the XML  
developer specifies, up to the LCD screen size.  
The third block displays below the second block. By default, the third block  
displays static text, and takes up whatever lines remain blank on the LCD  
screen.  
Note: Any of the three blocks can be set as static text or scrolling text but  
the text displays on a total of 5 lines only. Any lines that display after line  
5 are lost.  
Using the AastraIPPhoneFormattedTextScreen object, the display truncates a line  
after the last word in that line and continues to wrap the text to the next line.The  
phone ignores any lines that display after the 5th line on the LCD screen.  
AastraIPPhoneFormattedTextScreen Structure  
The AastraIPPhoneFormattedTextScreen object describes the structure of the  
XML document that you can use to format the text that displays on the phone’s  
LCD screen. The default structure of the AastraIPPhoneFormattedTextScreen  
object is:  
<AastraIPPhoneFormattedTextScreen>  
<Line Size="<normal/double>" Align="<right/left/center>">A line of  
static text</Line>  
<Scroll Height=n>  
<Line Size="<normal/double>" Align="<right/left/center>">  
Scrolling text</Line>  
<Line>Another line of Scrolling Text</Line>  
<Line>Yet another scrolling line</Line>  
</Scroll>  
<Line>Some static footer text</Line>  
</AastraIPPhoneFormattedTextScreen>  
Note: The text in bold in the above structure indicate the options you can  
use for text size (normal, double), alignment (right, left, center), and  
scrolling height (from 1 to 5 lines). Setting a scrolling height less than “1”  
automatically sets the scroller height to “1”.

Dialpad Passthrough for Objects  
On the IP Phones, an XML Developer can control digit passthrough while the  
phone is in the connected state. (This feature is only applicable to phones in the  
connected state). This can be done by setting the new “allowDTMF” attribute  
with the XML objects AastraIPPhoneTextScreen,  
AastraIPPhoneFormattedTextScreen, and AastraIPPhoneImageScreen.  
Setting this attribute to “yes” allows dialpad events to pass through the XML  
applications.  
Note: The default behavior for this feature is to suppress dialpad events  
when an XML object is in focus (same as in previous releases). Other  
XML objects ignore this attribute.  
Examples  
The following is an example of setting the allowDTMF attribute to allow  
dialpad events to pass through the XML applications.  
<AastraIPPhoneTextScreen allowDTMF="yes">  
<Title>Test</Title>  
<Text>Digits should pass through this object</Text>

UserInput Object (User Input Screens)  
The AastraIPPhoneInputScreen object allows application developers to create  
screens for which the user can input text where applicable. (Line 1 is a title, Line 4  
is an input prompt, and Line 5 is an input field). The IP phones support three  
parameter types: IP Addresses, Numbers (integers), and Strings. Each parameter  
has a URL tag that is used to send information back to the HTTP server. The label  
GET.  
For User input screens, you can also create the following:  
Time and Date Format User input screens. For more information, see “Time  
and Date Formats (User Input Screens)” on page G-31.  
Multiple input fields per AastraIPPhoneInputScreen object. For more  
information, see “Multiple Input Fields (User Input Screens)” on page G-34.

XML Softkey for Special Characters  
(User Input Screens for 9480i, 9480i CT, 55i, 57i, and 57i CT only)  
The IP Phone can dynamically receive a Symbol List when it receives the  
AastraIPPhoneInputScreen XML object. You can have a single symbol  
specified for the softkey, or you can have a list of symbols. When there is only one  
symbol in the list, the symbol displays with no delay. When there is a list of  
symbols, you can keep pressing the symbol softkey to cycle through the list of  
symbols to select the one you want to use.  
To display a list of customized symbols to the phone’s softkey, the server must  
include the list of characters in the URI field of the XML softkey script. The URI  
must be in the format:  
SymbolList=”<Symbol List content>”  
The content of the Symbol List must be encapsulated by quotes. You can specify  
multiple symbols in one URI. For example, the SymbolList="@#” specifies the  
@ and # symbols.  
Note: You can have multiple Symbol List softkeys with different lists of  
symbols. The maximum length of the data in a Symbol List is 230  
characters.  
There are some special characters that needed to be encoded due to XML  
limitations. The following table specifies these characters.

&apos;

The following is an example XML URI using the characters in the table above:

Time and Date Formats (User Input Screens)  
The AastraIPPhoneInputScreen object allows you to specify US ( (HH:MM:SS  
am/pm and MM/DD/YYYY) or International (HH:MM:SS and DD/MM/YYYY)  
time/date formats for an XML user input screen on the IP phone.  
Note: You use this time/date format in an XML script that displays in an  
XML window. This time/date format does NOT affect the time/date  
format configured under the Options Menu on the phone.  
Using this AastraIPPhoneInputScreen object, you can specify the following  
attributes for date/time format to create the user input screen:  
timeUS”  
timeInt”  
“US Date”  
“Int Date”  
You can use these XML attributes in an application that requires the user to  
specify a time or a date, for example, when scheduling a meeting. The user could  
press a softkey that gets the XML script asking you to enter a time/date. This time/  
date is then forwarded to a script that schedules the meeting or reports a conflict.  
XML Examples:  
The following example illustrates the AastraIPPhoneInputScreen object using the  
time/date attributes.

Default is “normal” mode.  
Normal Mode - Prompts and inputs each appear on separate lines  
on the display. The user can scroll through the lines.  
Notes:  
1. An <InputField> tag with a type set to “empty” creates two blank  
lines in “normal” mode.  
2. All inputs fields are left justfied in “normal” mode.  
Condensed Mode - Prompts and inputs appear on the same line  
(up to 5 inputs on a single screen).  
Notes:  
1. Title tag wrapping limits the number of fields per screen to 1 or 3  
in condensed mode.  
2. An <InputField> tag with a type set to “empty” creates a blank  
line in “condensed” mode.

Directory Object (Directory List Screen)  
The Directory object allows you to browse an online directory in real time. It  
displays an automatically numbered list of contacts. By selecting a contact with  
the cursor, the contact can be dialed directly by pressing the "Dial" softkey or  
picking up the receiver. The Directory object has the optional softkeys of  
"Previous" and "Next" which can be linked to other XML objects.  
Implementation  
The following is how you would implement the Directory object in XML.  
Note:  
1. For all available parameters you can use for the Directory object, and  
for an explanation of each parameter, see Aastra Telecom’s  
"XML Developer’s Guide".  
2. If the URI entry contains a "?" the phone appends an "&" instead.

Creating an XML Application  
Status Message Object (Idle Screen)  
The IP phones support an XML AastraIPPhoneStatus object for displaying  
status messages on a single designated line on the phone’s idle screen. The  
messages display when the server pushes XML information to the phone.  
The 57i/57i CT phones display messages on the second line in the phone window.  
(where “No Service” would display if there was no service. If there is no service  
on the phone, the “No Service” message overrides the XML object message). The  
53i phone displays messages on the first line (overriding the DisplayName). The  
phone truncates long messages that are wider then the phone screen.  
If the phone receives multiple messages, the first message received displays first  
displayed until they are removed (by the server) or the phone reboots. The  
AastraIPPhoneStatus object feature is always enabled.  
Note: You can set the amount of time, in seconds, that a message displays  
to the phone before scrolling to the next message. For more information  
about this feature, see “Scroll Delay Option (configurable via config files  
and Aastra Web UI only)” on page G-78.  
AastraIPPhoneStatus Structure  
The AastraIPPhoneStatus object describes the structure of the XML document  
that you can use to send status messages to the phone. The basic structure of the  
AastraIPPhoneStatus object is:  
<AastraIPPhoneStatus>  
<Session>My session ID</Session>  
<Message index="Msg index">Message</Message>  
<! -- Additional status messages may be added under new Message tags-->  
<AastraIPPhoneStatus/>  
The ”My Session ID” attribute must be unique to the application sending the  
XML object to the phone. The application generates the session ID, which could  
be a combination of letters and numbers. There is a maximum of one <Session>  
tag per PhoneStatus object, so the <Session> tag is optional.

XML Examples  
Example 1: The following is an example of using the AastraIPPhoneStatus  
object:  
<AastraIPPhoneStatus>  
<Session>abc12345</Session>  
<Message index="3">Server side call forwarding disabled</Message>  
<AastraIPPhoneStatus/>  
In this example, the AastraIPPhoneStatus object sends the default behavior with  
the status message (i.e., the status message is added to the scroll list).  
Example 2: You can also use the AastraIPPhoneStatus object to remove status  
messages from the display, by setting an empty tag for the <Message index> tag.  
The following example removes the status message that was posted to the phone  
in Example 1.  
<AastraIPPhoneStatus>  
<Session>abc12345</Session>

Creating an XML Application  
Execute Commands Object (for executing XML commands)  
An AastraIPPhoneExecute object on the IP phones allows the phone to execute  
commands using XML. The phones support the following execute object  
commands:  
Reset - This command waits until the phone is idle and then executes a reset.  
You can use this command in an XML script to enable the server to force  
phone firmware changes and/or for troubleshooting purposes.  
NoOp - This command has no affect on the IP phone. It is made up of a blank  
URI. You can use this feature when you need to press a key on the phone to  
access a feature, and it is not necessary to display anything.  
FastReboot - This command allows an administrator to perform a fast reboot  
of the IP phone when required.  
Note: For FastReboot commands, you must set the XML push server list  
in the Aastra Web UI from where the XML HTTP post is being sent.  
XML Softkey/Programmable Key LED Behavior - The URI=”Led:  
<softkey or programmable key type>=<execute command>”/ controls the  
behavior of XML softkey or programmable key LEDs. The softkey or  
programmable key must be configured for XML before you enable this  
feature.  
The following paragraphs describe the AastraIPPhoneExecute object and the  
commands you can use with this object.  
AastraIPPhoneExecute Object Structure  
The AastraIPPhoneExecute object describes the structure of the XML document  
that you can use to send a command to the phone. It delivers multiple execution  
requests to the phone. The basic structure of the AastraIPPhoneExecute object is:  
<AastraIPPhoneExecute>  
<ExecuteItem URI ="the URL or URI to be executed"/>  
<! -- Additional execution items may be added under new ExecuteItem tag-->  
</AastraIPPhoneExecute>

Creating an XML Application  
Using the Reset Command  
The <ExecuteItem URI =""/> tag can be entered with the command the phone  
should execute. Upon receiving an AastraIPPhoneExecute object, the phone  
begins executing the URL or URI specified.  
The following example shows an AastraIPPhoneExecute object using the Reset  
command:  
<AastraIPPhoneExecute>  
<ExecuteItem URI="Command: Reset"/>  
</AastraIPPhoneExecute>  
Note: If you specify a command as a URI attribute (instead of a URL),  
the keyword "Command" must be prepended in the value of the URI  
attribute so that the phone recognizes it as a URI attribute value. If you  
enter a URI and leave out the “Command” keyword, the phone interprets  
the value in the URI attribute as a URL containing network resources.  
The following example shows the AastraIPPhoneExecute object using a URL:  
<AastraIPPhoneExecute>  
<ExecuteItem URI="http://aastraserver/message.xml"/>  
</AastraIPPhoneExecute>  
When the phone receives this object, it displays the specified XML URI page.  
Using the NoOp Command  
You can use the AastraIPPhoneExecute object as an object to create a blank  
display (it has no affect on the IP phone). It is made up of a blank URI. You can  
use this feature when you need to press a key on the phone to access a feature, and  
it is not necessary to display anything. You can also use the  
AastraIPPhoneExecute object and this command with other objects in an XML  
script.  
The following example shows an AastraIPPhoneExecute object using a blank  
URI:  
<AastraIPPhoneExecute>  
<ExecuteItem URI=””/>

Using the FastReboot Command  
Using an XML post, the FastReboot feature forces a phone to reboot in the idle  
state. It does not check for new firmware and only downloads language packs if  
there is a change in the supported filenames of the language packs. The phone  
DOES do a DHCP lookup on every “fast reboot”. It also only downloads the  
Directory files if the names have changed.  
Note: For FastReboot commands, you must set the XML push server list  
in the Aastra Web UI from where the XML HTTP post is being sent.  
The following example shows an AastraIPPhoneExecute object using the  
FastReboot command.  
<AastraIPPhoneExecute>  
<ExecuteItem URI=“Command:FastReboot”/>  
</AastraIPPhoneExecute>  
Using the LED Commands (for Softkey or Programmable Key LED  
Behavior)  
You can control the behavior of XML softkey or programmable key LEDs using  
the command URI=”Led: <softkey or programmable key type>=<execute  
command>”/ with the AastraIPPhoneExecute object.  
This LED feature is applicable to XML softkeys (top or bottom), programmable  
keys, and expansion module softkeys. The softkey or programmable key must be  
configured for XML before you enable this feature.  
The following table describes the behaviors you can assign to the XML key  
LEDs, and the attribute you enter in the AastraIPPhoneExecute script.

Lock - This command locks a remote phone.  
Unlock - This command unlocks a remote phone, allowing an Administrator  
to update its configuration if required.  
The following examples use the “Lock” and “Unlock” attributes with the Execute  
Command.  
Example 1:  
<AastraIPPhoneExecute>  
<ExecuteItem URI="Command: Unlock"/>

Using RTP and Multicast RTP Commands  
The IP Phones have RTP and Multicast RTP XML commands that an  
Administrator can use with the “AastraIPPhoneExecute” object. These  
commands allow the phone to send/recieve an RTP stream to/from given  
multicast/unicast addresses (without involving SIP signaling). The RTP and  
Multicast RTP XML commands are:  
RTPRx (Receive (Rx) a Unicast RTP stream or stop receiving a Unicast/  
Multicast RTP streams)  
RTPTx (Transmit (Tx) a Unicast RTP stream or stop transmitting a Unicast/  
Multicast RTP streams)  
RTPMRx (Receive (Rx) a Multicast RTP stream)  
RTPMTx (Transmit (Tx) a Multicast RTP stream)  
The phones support the following RTP stream format:  
G.711 mu-law CODEC  
20 ms packet size  
Note: If one of the previous commands is sent to the phone which is  
already in a call, the phone places the current call on hold and the RTP  
streaming commands are performed using a new audio path.

Creating an XML Application  
RTPRx  
The RTPRx URI instructs the phone to receive a Unicast RTP stream or stop  
receiving Unicast or Multicast RTP streams. The RTPRx formats to use with the  
AastraIPPhoneExecute object in the URI are:  
RTPRx:i:p:v  
RTPRx:Stop  
Where  
i
Specifies the IP Address from which the stream is coming.  
p
Specifies the UDP port on which to receive the RTP stream.  
Ensure that this is a number greater than 3100.  
v
Indicates the optional volume setting that controls the volume of the stream  
(optional) playout. The supplied value is an offset to the current volume setting. After the  
initial volume level gets set and the stream starts, you can manually change  
the volume level as required using this “v” option. If you do not specify the  
optional volume parameter, the phone uses the current volume setting on the  
phone as the default.  
Stop  
Specifies to stop any active RTP stream from being received on channel one.  
Example: This example receives a unicast RTP stream from 10.30.100.20 at UDP port  
21000 with the voice settings at 3 levels more than the current offset.  
<AastraIPPhoneExecute>  
<ExecuteItem URI = ”RTPRx:10.30.100.20:21000:3”>  
<AastraIPPhoneExecute>

Note: Once the RTPRx command in the URI is sent to the phone, it stops  
the phone from listening to any previous RTPRx or RTPMRx commands.  
The phone starts listening based on the most recent RTPRx command  
received. This behavior also applies to the RTPRx:Stop and  
RTPMRx:Stop commands as well but does not enable any further  
listening.  
RTPTx  
The RTPTx URI instructs the phone to transmit a Unicast RTP stream or to stop  
transmitting Unicast or Multicast RTP streams. The RTPTx formats to use with  
the AastraIPPhoneExecute object in the URI are:  
RTPTx:i:p  
RTPTx:Stop  
Where  
i
Specifies the IP Address to which an RTP stream is transmit ed.  
p
Specifies the UDP port on which to transmit the RTP stream.  
Ensure that this is a number greater than 3100.  
Stop  
Specifies to stop any active RTP stream from being transmitted on channel  
one.

RTPMRx  
The RTPMRx URI instructs the phone to receive a Multicast RTP stream. The  
RTPMRx format to use with the AastraIPPhoneExecute object in the URI is:  
RTPMRx:i:p:v  
Where  
i
Specifies the multicast IP Address from which to receive an RTP stream.  
p
Specifies the UDP port on which to receive the RTP stream.  
Ensure that this is a number greater than 3100.  
v
Indicates the optional volume setting that controls the volume of the stream  
(optional) playout. The supplied value is an offset to the current volume setting. After the  
initial volume level gets set and the stream starts, you can manually change  
the volume level as required using this “v” option. If you do not specify the  
optional volume parameter, the phone uses the current volume setting on the  
phone as the default.  
Example: This example receives a multicast RTP stream from 239.0.1.20 on UDP port  
21000 with the voice settings at -3 levels less than the current offset.  
<AastraIPPhoneExecute>  
<ExecuteItem URI = ”RTPMRx:239.0.1.20:21000:-3”>

Using RTP Recording and Simultaneous Playing  
(not supported on 51i)  
The IP Phones allow for RTP recording and simultaneous playing of an audio file  
via XML Execute commands. An Administrator can use the RTP and multicast  
RTP commands (RTPTx, RTPRx, RTPMTx, RTPMRx) with the  
AastraIPPhoneExecute” object to initiate this feature.  
The RTP and multicast RTP commands allow the phone to send/receive an RTP  
stream to/from given multicast/unicast addresses (without involving SIP  
signaling). An Administrator can use the following two options appended to the  
RTP commands for recording and simultaneously playing of an audio file:  
mix - When appended to an RTP command, “mix” enables RTP recording and  
simultaneous playing of an audio file.  
disableIcon - When appended to an RTP command, “disableIcon” disables  
the display of the mixed call icons on the LCD of the phones.  
Note: This feature is not supported on the 51i. Also, if the cordless  
handset (CT) and the base phone are connected (Models 9480i CT and  
57i CT), this feature is not supported.  
Sending RTP  
When a phone receives a request for sending RTP:  
and there is an existing call on the phone, no new audio session is created; the  
existing RTP call (incoming or outgoing) is sent to the receiving party.  
and the phone is already in a 3-way conference, the request is declined.  
and there is no existing call on the phone, a new audio session is created and  
the RTP call is sent to the receiving party.

Receiving RTP  
When a phone receives a request for receiving RTP:  
if there is an existing audio path, (handset, headset, or speakerphone), the  
phone uses it to play the incoming RTP stream on top of the existing one.  
if the phone is already in a 3-way conference, the request is declined.  
if there is no existing audio path, the phone creates a new one (speakerphone)  
to play the incoming RTP stream  
The following scenarios assume that a request for receiving mixed RTP is  
initiated.  
Phone State  
Action When RTP Receiving  
Phone is in idle state.  
The phone initiates a new RTP session on  
the paging line and the paging line displays.  
There is an existing voice call on the  
phone.  
The phone starts playing the incoming RTP  
stream on top of the existing call. Paging  
line does not display.  
The phone is in conference.

The request for receiving RTP is declined.  
The phone is not in conference;  
however, both voice and conference  
streams are busy (cordless handset).  
The phone is in a call using the  
conference stream and the voice  
stream is free.  
Incoming RTP stream is played on top of  
the existing voice stream. Paging line does  
not display.

Using Commands for Playing a WAV File  
The IP Phones allow a WAV file to be played or stopped via XML Execute  
commands. A WAV file is an audio file format standard for storing an audio bit  
stream on a system in raw, uncompressed format or compressed format to reduce  
the file size.  
A WAV file can be streamed to the phone using the HTTP protocol.  
The WAV feature supports the following:  
Streaming of the WAV file to allow it to be locally played  
Allows you to abort the audio streaming by pressing the Goodbye key on the  
phone.  
Supports the HTTP file download protocol  
Supports the aLaw and uLaw codecs  
Calls “Action URI INCOMING” when the audio WAV starts, and  
Action URI ONHOOK” when the WAV file playing has completed. The  
name of the WAV file is inserted into the Action URI.  
Plays the WAV file only if the phone is idle.  
Aborts streaming if another line is selected for dialing out, or if the current  
line is accepting an incoming call.  
WAV audio file starts only when 4 seconds of the audio data (or the complete  
file) has been accumulated.  
Follows the standard phone behavior of speaker/head set/hand set.  
An Administrator can use two new XML Execute commands with the  
AastraIPPhoneExecute object to allow the phones to play a WAV file:  
Wav.Play - This command initiates the streaming of a WAV file to the phone.  
Wav.Stop - This command aborts a WAV streaming.

XML URI for Key Press Simulation  
The phones provide a feature that allow an XML Developer or Administrator to  
define XML Key URIs that can send key press events to the phone, just as if the  
physical hard key, softkey, or programmable key were pressed on the phone.  
When the Key URI event is sent from the server to the phone, the phone initiates  
the event as if the key was physically pressed. If the key is not present on the  
phone (hard key) or not available (softkey or programmable key), when the phone  
receives the URI, the event is discarded. If you are in the process of changing the  
softkey or programmable key setting, or the key is disabled while the event is  
being processed, the request is discarded. The phone maps key events to it’s  
physical keys and not to it’s mapped logical keys.  
The following table identifies the XML URIs for pressing buttons on the phone..  
XML Key URI  
Description  
Line Keys  
Key:Line1 to Key:Line4

Creating an XML Application  
Dynamic Configuration Object (to push a configuration to the phone)  
The IP phones provide an XML feature that allows you to make configuration  
changes to the phone that take affect immediately, without having to reboot the  
phone. This feature involves creating XML scripts that push the changed  
configuration parameter(s) from the server to the IP phones.  
You can use the AastraIPPhoneConfiguration object in the XML scripts to  
change configuration parameters or configure new parameters. However, since the  
IP phone does not save new parameters created in XML scripts to the local.cfg  
file, when the phone reboots, it does not save the new parameters on the phone. In  
order for the phone to apply new configuration parameters, you have to enter the  
parameters via the user interfaces (Telephone User Interface, Web User Interface,  
or configuration files), or reapply the new parameters using the XML scripts after  
every boot.  
Specific configuration parameters are dynamic on the phone when pushed from  
XML scripts on the server. See “Dynamic Configuration Parameters” on  
page G-66 for more information about dynamic configuration parameters.  
AastraIPPhoneConfiguration Object Structure  
The AastraIPPhoneConfiguration object describes the structure of the XML  
document that you can use to push the configuration to the IP phone. The basic  
structure of the AastraIPPhoneConfiguration object is:  
<AastraIPPhoneConfiguration>  
<ConfigureItem>  
<Parameter>Parameter name</Parameter>  
<Value>Parameter value</Value>  
</ConfigureItem>  
<ConfigureItem>  
<Parameter>Parameter name</Parameter>

Creating an XML Application  
You can include images with an XML object in two ways:  
Using pixel data stored with specified tags  
Using an internal bitmap loaded via a specified URI  
Note: The actual resolution of the image on the LCD screen is dependent  
on the phone model. The 55i screen has a resolution of 144 x 75 pixels.  
The 57i/57i CT screens have a resolution of 144 x 128 pixels. However,  
the display of the image is limited to 40 x 144 pixels high.  
The following paragraphs describe each of the image objects and how you can use  
them in the XML scripts.  
AastraIPPhoneImageScreen Object  
The AastraIPPhoneImageScreen object displays an image as a single bitmap  
image on the LCD screen. You can specify the placement of the image on the  
screen by setting the following attributes:  
verticalAlign  
horizontalAlign  
height  
width  
The image is specified as a series of hexadecimal characters. Two hex characters  
map to one byte of pixel data, where each bit represents a pixel. The image data  
describes the bitmap from left to right and top to bottom. The data is padded on  
an 8-bit boundary, so if the height and width do not match the pixel information,  
then the image will not display correctly. The character strings map to the middle  
and four corners of the screen. If desired, you can specify an integer as an absolute  
pixel for customized displays.  
Note: A special URI of "Image:Logo" is used to load the current logo  
bitmap for the phone (Aastra or branded). In this case, the height and  
width can be ignored.

AastraIPPhoneImageMenu  
The AastraIPPhoneImageMenu object allows you to use a bitmap image to  
display as a menu. Each menu item is linked to a keypad key (0-9, *, #). You can  
use this type of image object when you want to display menu choices as a  
non-ASCII character set or with pictures only. You can specify the placement of  
the image on the screen by setting the following attributes:  
verticalAlign  
horizontalAlign  
height  
width  
The image is specified as a series of hexadecimal characters. Two hex characters  
map to one byte of pixel data, where each bit represents a pixel. The image data  
describes the bitmap from left to right and top to bottom. The data is padded on

AastraIPPhoneTextMenu (Icon Menu)  
The AastraIPPhoneTextMenu (Icon Menu) object is identical to the “Text Menu  
Object (Menu Screens)” described on page G-6, except a small icon image  
appears after the menu number and before the text item. The Text Menu object  
allows application developers to create a numerical list of menu items on the IP  
phones. The AastraIPPhoneTextMenu (Icon Menu) object allows users to  
navigate the application, by linking HTTP requests and icons to menu items.  
XML Example:  
The XML script for the AastraIPPhoneTextMenu (Icon Menu) object is as  
follows:  
<AastraIPPhoneTextMenu>  
<Title> Icon Menu </Title>  
<MenuItem base = http://someserver/,  
icon="1">  
<Prompt> Voicemail </Prompt>  
<URI>scripts/voicemail.php</URI>  
</MenuItem>  
<MenuItem icon="2">  
<Prompt> Horoscope</Prompt>  
<URI> scripts/horoscope.php </URI>  
</MenuItem>  
<IconList>  
<Icon index = "1"> Icon:Envelope </Icon>  
<Icon index = "2"> FFFF0000FFFF0000 </Icon>  
</AastraIPPhoneTextScreen>  
The “icon=1” attribute in the above example tells the phone to display the icon  
specified in the IconList called “<Icon index = “1”> Icon:Envelope </Icon>”.  
For more information about the “IconList”, see “Using the <IconList>” on  
page G-74.

Using the <IconList>  
You can incorporate the use of an <IconList> attribute in the XML script to  
define the images you will use with the AastraIPPhoneTextMenu object. After  
you define the icons in the <IconList>, you can then call those icons as you need  
them throughout the script. This also allows you to assign the icons to softkeys on  
the phone.  
You can load images in the <IconList> in two ways:  
By specifying the image after a special prefix called “Icon:”  
For example:  
<IconList>  
<Icon index = “1”> Icon:Envelope </Icon>)  
<IconList>  
By specifying the image in hexidecimal format  
For example:  
<IconList>  
<Icon index = “2”> FF00F3 </Icon>)  
<IconList>

Creating an XML Application  
Note: For a list of icons that are internal to the IP phone when specifying  
the “Icon:<uri name>”, see the section “IP Phone Internal Icon Images”  
on page G-76.  
You can use one or both ways to load images within the same XML script. The  
softkey icons display at the edge of the screen. Any XML object that supports  
softkeys can support the optional <IconList> tag.  
XML Example:  
The following example illustrates the use of the <IconList> attribute to create  
images for softkey prompts.  
<AastraIPPhoneTextScreen>  
<Title> Directory List </Title>  
<Text> Welcome to the Directory. </Text>  
<SoftKey index = "4" icon="2">  
<Label> Listing </Label>  
<URI> http://server/page.php </URI>  
</SoftKey>  
<SoftKey index = "3" icon="1">  
<Label> Exit </Label>  
<URI> http://server/otherpage.php </URI>  
</SoftKey>  
<IconList>  
<Icon index = "1"> FF00F3 </Icon>  
<Icon index = "2"> Icon:ArrowRight </Icon>  
</IconList>

Attributes/Options to Use with XML Objects  
Beep Attribute  
(configurable via XML objects, config files, or Aastra Web UI)  
the Status Message object (AastraIPPhoneStatus), the configuration files, or the  
Aastra Web UI.  
Note: For enabling/disabling a status message beep using the  
configuration files and the Aastra Web UI, see Chapter 5, the section,  
“Enabling/Disabling a Beep for Status Message Displays.”.  
When the phone receives a status message, the BEEP notifies the user that the  
message is displaying. The following attribute in the AastraIPPhoneStatus object  
enables/disables the BEEP from being heard:  
< AastraIPPhoneStatus Beep="yes|no">  
(case sensitive)  
This attribute is optional. If notification is required, the attribute must be in the  
ROOT. If the BEEP attribute is set to "yes" (i.e. Beep="yes") then it is an  
indication to the phone to sound a beep when it receives the object. If the Beep  
attribute is set to "no" (i.e. Beep="no") or not present, then the default behavior is  
no beep is heard when the object arrives to the phone.  
Note: The value set in the configuration files and Aastra Web UI override  
the attribute you specify for the AastraIPPhoneStatus object.  
Scroll Delay Option  
(configurable via config files and Aastra Web UI only)  
The IP phones support a scroll delay option that allows you to set the time delay,  
in seconds, between the scrolling of each status message on the phone. The default  
You can configure this option via the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.  
Changes are dynamic and apply to the phone immediately.  
Note: For more information about setting the scroll delay option, see  
Chapter 5, the section, “Scroll Delay Option for Status Messages.”

Creating an XML Application  
Timeout Attribute  
(configurable via XML objects only)  
The XML “Timeout” attribute allows you to specify a timeout value for the LCD  
screen display. You must use the “Timeout” aattribute in the ROOT. When the  
phone receives an XML object with this attribute, it overrides the default 45  
second timeout specified for custom applications. Setting the “Timeout” attribute  
to zero (0) disables this feature.  
XML Example:  
The following example illustrates the use of the “Timeout” attribute with the  
AastraIPPhoneFormattedTextScreen object. The result would cause the LCD  
screen to timeout in 30 seconds.  
<xs:element name="AastraIPPhoneFormattedTextScreen">  
<xs:attribute name="Beep" default="no">  
<xs:simpleType>  
<xs:restriction base="xs:string>

LockIn Attribute  
(configurable via XML objects only)  
The XML “LockIn” attribute allows you to specify whether or not the  
information on the LCD screen stays displayed when other events occur (such as  
pressing buttons on the keypad).  
Note: This attribute is ignored during incoming calls. If this attribute is  
set, and the phone receives an incoming call, the LCD screen exits the  
XML information and displays the information about the incoming call.  
You must use the “LockIn” aattribute in the ROOT. The settings for the LockIn  
attribute are “Yes” for enabled, and “No” for disabled.  
XML Example:  
The following example illustrates the use of the “LockIn” attribute with the  
AastraIPPhoneFormattedTextScreen object. The result would cause the LCD  
screen to lock in the display of the XML information even if other events occur  
(except for an incoming call).  
<xs:element name="AastraIPPhoneFormattedTextScreen">  
<xs:attribute name="Beep" default="no">

CancelAction Attribute  
(configurable via XML objects only)  
The XML “cancelAction” attribute allows you to specify a URI that a GET is  
executed on when the user presses the default CANCEL key.  
Note: The URI must be fully qualified.  
You can add this optional feature at the end of any of the XML objects. The  
format is:  
<Hardkey action="Cancel">  
<Label>Label to Display</Label>  
<URI>URI to Get</Label>  
</Hardkey>  
XML Example:  
The following illustrates the AastraIPPhoneTextScreen object using the “Cancel”  
attribute:  
<AastraIPPhoneTextScreen cancelAction=”http://10.50.10.117/  
ft.xml”>  
<Title>Test</Title>  
<Text>This is a test of the cancel action</Text>  
</AastraIPPhoneTextScreen>  
When this XML script is sent to the phone, and the user presses the default  
CANCEL key, the script executes a GET on http://10.50.10.117/ft.xml.  
Note: If the “cancelAction” attribute was not used in the above script,  
then pressing the CANCEL key would simply cancel the current screen.

Creating an XML Application  
HTTP Post  
In addition to initiating a request to an XML application from the Services menu,  
an HTTP server can push an XML object to the phone via HTTP Post. The phone  
parses this object immediately upon receipt and displays the information to the  
screen.  
The HTTP post packet must contain an "xml=" line in the message body. The  
string to parse is located after the equals sign in the message. HTML forms that  
post objects to the phone must use a field named "xml" to send their data. See the  
following examples (Example 1 and Example 2) for a sample HTTP post packet  
and php source code.  
Example 1:  
POST / HTTP/1.1  
Accept: image/gif, image/x-xbitmap, image/jpeg, image/pjpeg,

Creating an XML Application  
HTTP Refresh Header  
You can use an HTTP refresh header with the XML screen objects on the IP  
phones. This feature provides the following:  
All current XML screen objects have the ability to be refreshed by adding a  
Refresh and URL setting to the HTTP headers. (see Refresh setting format  
below)  
The Refresh setting is set by the XML application and it is up to the  
application to decide which objects it wants to refresh.  
Note: This HTTP refresh header feature only applies to objects that  
display to the screen.  
The Refresh setting must be included in the HTTP header. The XML application  
decides which objects it wants to use with this setting. The phone recognizes this  
setting when parsing the HTTP header. If the setting is present, then it passes  
along the refresh timeout and the URL to the ParserData object, which all XML  
screen objects inherit from. The ParserData class also has a timer, which must be  
set to expire at the next refresh time. When the timer expires (time to refresh the  
screen), the phone requests the URL again and displays the refreshed screen.  
Refresh Setting Format  
The following is the Refresh setting format for the HTTP header:  
Refresh: <timeout>; URL=<page to load>  
The following example is a Refresh setting for use in an HTTP header:  
Refresh: 3; URL=http://10.50.10.140/cgi-bin/update.xml  
Note: You must use the Refresh and URL parameters in order for this  
feature to work in the HTTP header.

Creating an XML Application  
HTTP Language Header  
You can use an HTTP language header with the XML screen objects on the IP  
phones. By including the language information in the HTTP header, the HTTP  
GET includes the phone model, the firmware and the MAC address of the phone.  
When the user selects a language on the phone, the selected language is sent to the  
XML application and the application displays to the screen in that language.  
Note: This HTTP language header feature only applies to objects that  
display to the screen.  
XML Schema File  
After creating an XML application for your IP phone, you can validate the XML  
objects using the Schema file provided in this section. This helps you find any  
parsing errors that may exist, and verify that your XML objects conform to the  
Aastra API.  
(i.e., http://apps.gotdotnet.com/xmltools/xsdvalidator/Default.aspx) that  
can perform validation using the schema file.

Managing XML Applications  
Managing XML Applications  
Description  
This section provides information on managing XML applications on the Aastra  
IP Phones.  
Support of Virtual Web Servers  
The IP phones support the configuration of a web sever to host multiple websites  
with different content. With this feature, the webserver looks at the Host header in  
the incoming HTTP request sent by the browser to determine which website the  
phone is trying to access.  
Non-Blocking HTTP Connections  
The IP Phones support a non-blocking HTTP connection feature. This feature  
allows the user to continue using the phone when there is a delay during an  
HTTP connection while the phone is waiting for the HTTP server to  
respond. This feature also allows a user to abort the connection and perform other  
operations on the phone (which will abort the HTTP connection automatically). A  
user can also abort the HTTP loading by pressing the GOODBYE key while the  
phone is displaying “Loading Page.......”.  
Note: This feature impacts only the HTTP calls triggered by a phone key  
(softkey or programmable key); the HTTP calls performed by action  
URIs are still blocking.

Managing XML Applications  
XML SIP Notify  
In order for an XML push to bypass the NAT/firewall, the phone supports a  
proprietary SIP NOTIFY event (aastra-xml) with or without XML content.  
If XML content is provided in the SIP NOTIFY, it is processed directly by the  
phone as it is done for an XML PUSH.  
If the content is empty in the SIP NOTIFY, the phone automatically triggers a new  
pre-configured action uri (action uri xml sip notify).  
Example of a SIP NOTIFY with XML Content  
NOTIFY sip:[email protected]:5060 SIP/2.0  
Via: SIP/2.0/UDP 10.30.100.103:5060;branch=z9hG4bK7bbc1fac;rport  
From: <sip:[email protected]:5060>;tag=81be2861f3  
To: Jacky200 <sip:[email protected]:5060>  
Contact: <sip:[email protected]>  
Call-ID: 59638f5d95c9d301  
CSeq: 4 NOTIFY  
Max-Forwards: 70  
Event: aastra-xml  
Content-Type: application/xml  
Content-Length: 115  
<AastraIPPhoneExecute><ExecuteItem URI="http://10.30.100.39/XMLtests/  
SampleTextScreen.xml"/></AastraIPPhoneExecute>  
When the phone receives the SIP NOTIFY, the XML content is processed as any  
XML object. In the above example, the phone calls http://10.30.100.39/XMLtests/  
SampleTextScreen.xml after reception of the SIP NOTIFY.  
Note: The phone supports all the current XML objects with all  
the existing limitations. For example if an  
AastraIPPhoneExecute is used, the embedded uri(s) can not be  
HTTPS based.

CSeq: 4 NOTIFY  
Max-Forwards: 70  
Event: aastra-xml  
Content-Type: application/xml  
Content-Length: 0  
When the phone receives the SIP NOTIFY, it will trigger the action uri xml sip  
notify parameter,if it has been previously configured using the configuration files  
or the Aastra Web UI. If the action uri xml sip notify parameter is not  
configured, the phone does not do anything.  
On the phone side, a System Administrator can enable or disable this SIP  
NOTIFY feature using the configuration files or the phone Web UI.  
Also to ensure that the SIP NOTIFY is coming from a trusted source, it is  
recommended that you enable the Whitelist feature (Whitelist Proxy parameter)  
on the IP phone. If enabled, and the phone receives a SIP NOTIFY from a server  
that is NOT on the whitelist, the phone rejects the message.  
Reference  
For information on enabling/disabling XMLSIP Notify, see Chapter 6, the section,  
“XML SIP Notify Events.”
