will still be able to lock/unlock the phone with a PIN from the IP Phone. Administrators can disable the user Web UI using
the configuration file. System Administrators have the option to either disable the Web UI for both the Administrator and
User, enable for both the Administrator and User, or enable the Web UI only for the Administrator.Use the following proce-
dure to enable and disable the Aastra Web UI.
