Upgrading the AastraLink RP Solution

If the version of the base unit is a later version than Administrator, you'll see a
message telling you whether an upgrade is mandatory or optional

Phone and Gateway Upgrades

Response Point venders will periodically release firmware packages to upgrade both
IP phones and gateways on your AastraLink Response point Solution. Upgrade
software packages may include new versions of firmware for one or more devices.
You can elect to upgrade all devices, or only some devices on your network.

Upgrade All Device Firmware Using Administrator

To upgrade all devices (recommended) do the following.

Note: Upgrading will disrupt phone service, so don’t begin an upgrade during
business hours.

1. From within the Administrator software, click the Phone System button.

2. Click Upgrade Device Firmware under the heading Other.

3. Click Browse to find the upgrade package on your computer.

A table displays detailed information about the upgrade package you selected including the
new version number, the release date of the package, and the number of your devices that
apply to this upgrade package.

4. Click Upgrade all devices to which this package applies, and click Next.

5. On the Confirmation and warnings page, review the devices in the Devices to be

upgraded list, and read the cautionary information regarding the upgrade process.

6. Click Upgrade to start the process.

Do not disturb the devices during the upgrade. Each device may take several minutes for
Response Point to upgrade.

7. The Upgrading device firmware page shows you the status of every

device—whether the upgrade started, succeeded, failed, or is still in progress.
When the process finishes, if you only want to see devices that failed, select the
Show only failed upgrades in the list check box.
