Non-Blocking HTTP Connections
The IP Phones support a non-blocking HTTP connection feature.
This feature
allows the user to continue using the phone when there is a delay during an
HTTP connection while the phone is waiting for the HTTP server to
respond.
This feature also allows a user to abort the connection and perform other
operations on the phone (which will abort the HTTP connection automatically). A
user can also abort the HTTP loading by pressing the GOODBYE key while the
phone is displaying “Loading Page.......”.
Authentication Support for HTTP/HTTPS Download Methods for
Broadsoft Client Management System (CMS)
The IP Phones have authentication support per RFC 2617 when using HTTP or
HTTPS as download protocols. If a 5i Series phone is challenged by an HTTP or
HTTPS server when the server attempts to download the aastra.cfg file, the phone
automatically sends "aastra" as the default Username and Password back to the
server. For more information about this feature, see Chapter 5, the section,
on
.
Note:
This feature impacts only the HTTP calls triggered by a phone key
(softkey or programmable key); the HTTP calls performed by action
URIs are still blocking.
