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.
