Configuration Interface 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
