Upgrading the Firmware
The IP phones support the protocols, TFTP, FTP, HTTP or HTTPS to download configuration
files and upgrade firmware to the phones from a configuration server.
The configuration server should be ready and able to accept connections. For information on
configuration server requirements, see Chapter 1, the section,
“Configuration Server
Requirement” on page 1-41.
You can download the firmware stored on the configuration server in one of three ways:
• Using the “
Firmware Update
” page in the Aastra Web UI at the location Advanced
Settings->Firmware Update .
• Using the IP Phone UI or the Aastra Web UI to
restart
the phone. The phone automatically
looks for firmware updates and configuration files during the boot process.
• Setting an
Auto-Resync
feature to automatically update the firmware, configuration files, or
both at a specific time in a 24-hour period). (Feature can be enabled using the configuration
files or the Aastra Web UI).
Using the “Firmware Update” Page in the Aastra Web UI
You can use the Aastra Web UI to manually force a firmware update from the configuration
server to a phone in your network by selecting
Advanced Settings->Firmware Update . You can
configure the phone to perform the update using any of the protocols that the phone supports:
TFTP, FTP, HTTP, or HTTPS.
Warning: Do not reset or turn off the phone until the download is
complete.
Note:
This procedure downloads an updated <phone model.st> file as
well as any other firmware files that were updated, to your phone.
