SIP PHONES 51i, 53i, 55i AND 57i
9.11.3
Configuration through a download server
This configuration is described in detail in the following chapter.
By default (factory settings), the SIP phone is set to DHCP and uses TFTP to load the firmware ,
configuration files and language packs. This configuration enables you to load the phone
automatically.
The protocols available for downloading are: TFTP, FTP HTTP and HTTPS.
The download server hosts the phones’ firmware, configuration files and language packs.
Format of files used for downloading:
Firmware: <phone type>.st (example: 55i.st)
General phone configuration: aastra.cfg
Specific phone parameter file: @MAC.cfg (example: 00085D3A2451.cfg)
Therefore, you will use the configuration directly on the phone or via the WEB interface for a
reduced number of phones.
You can carry out mass deployments via a download server.
Caution : Combining the different methods may lead to configuration clashes, and unexpected
behaviour of the phone.
Caution : All the file names must be seized into lower case, except the field ’@MAC’ which must
be seized obligatorily in capital letter
