IP Phone Models
Description
All Aastra SIP IP Phone Models communicate over an IP network allowing you to receive and place calls in the same man-
ner as a regular business telephone.
All phone models support the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP). The 9480i CT and 6757i CT offers the base phone along
with a cordless extension.
References
For more information about the features and installation requirements, see the SIP IP Phone Installation Guide for your
specific model.

6800i Series
The following are optional accessories specifically for the 6800i Series IP Phones.
The following are optional accessories specifically for the 6865i and 6867i IP Phones.
The M680i module adds 16 additional softkeys to the 6865i and 6867i IP phones and provides paper labels for each
softkey. Up to 3 modules can be daisy-chained to provide up to 48 additional softkeys for the phone. No separate power
adaptor is required as the M680i is powered by the respective IP phone.
M680i Expansion Modules Daisy-Chaining Support
M680i Software Upgrades
The M680i does not require a separate firmware package. M680i software is embedded within the respective phone’s
firmware package.
When the M680i is connected and is powered up, the LED corresponding to the second button on the module will turn
solid red and the module will check to see if an upgrade is required. If it does not have the latest software, the module will
upgrade itself using the phone’s embedded firmware. This process will take approximately 10 seconds, in which case the
LED corresponding to the second button on the M680i will stay solid red for the duration. If the upgrade is successful, the
LED will turn green. If the LED stays solid and red for longer than 10 seconds, the upgrade may have failed. In such scenar-
ios, unplug and reattach the power source from the phone to attempt the upgrade again.
As software upgrades are performed one at a time, each additional M680i connected increases the approximate upgrade
time by 10 seconds (e.g. three connected M680i expansion modules will take approximately 30 seconds to upgrade).
Reference
For more information about installing the 6800i Wall Mount Kit and setting up and using the M680i expansion module, see
the 6800i Wall Mount Kit Installation Guide, the M680i Expansion Module Installation Guide, M680i Expansion
Module Quick Start Guide, your <Model-Specific> Installation Guide, as well as your <Model-Specific> IP Phone User

Firmware Installation Information
1-49 41-001343-02 REV04 – 05.2014
Firmware Installation Information
Description
The firmware setup and installation for the IP phone can be done using any of the following:
Phone User Interface via the keypad (Phone UI)
Aastra Web-based user interface (Aastra Web UI)
When the IP phone is initialized for the first time, DHCP is enabled by default. Depending on the type of configuration
server setup you may have, the IP phone may download a firmware version automatically, or you may need to download
it manually.
Installation Considerations
The following considerations must be made before connecting the IP phone to the network:
If you are planning on using dynamic IP addresses, make sure a DHCP server is enabled and running on your network.
If you are not planning on using dynamic IP addresses, see Chapter 4, the section, Configuring Network Settings
Manually” on page4-18 for manually setting up an IP address.
To install the IP phone hardware and cabling, refer to the <Model-Specific> SIP IP Phone Installation Guide.
Installation Requirements
The following are general requirements for setting up and using your SIP IP phone:
SIP-based IP PBX system or network installed and running with a SIP account created for the IP phone
Access to a Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP), File Transfer Protocol (FTP), Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) server,
or Hyper Text Transfer Protocol over Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) (HTTPS)
Ethernet/Fast Ethernet LAN (10/100 Mb) (Gigabit Ethernet LAN [1000 Mbps] recommended for Gigabit Ethernet com-
pliant phones)
Category 5/5e straight through cabling (Category 6 straight-through cabling recommended for Gigabit Ethernet com-
pliant phones)
Power source
For Ethernet networks that supply inline power to the phone (IEEE 802.3af) use an Ethernet cable to connect from
the phone directly to the network for power (no 48V AC power adapter required if using Power-over-Ethernet
[PoE])
For Ethernet networks that DO NOT supply power to the phone:
Use the respective power adaptor to connect from the DC power port on the phone to a power source
or
Use a PoE power injector or a PoE switch
Configuration Server Requirement
A basic requirement for setting up the IP phone is to have a configuration server. The configuration server allows you to:
Store the firmware images that you need to download to your IP phone
Stores configuration files for the IP phone
Reference
To set the protocol for your configuration server, see Chapter 4, “Configuring Network and Session Initiation Protocol
(SIP) Features, the section, “Configuring the Configuration Server Protocol” on page4-87.
To update the firmware on your phone, see Chapter 8, “Upgrading the Firmware.
Firmware and Configuration Files
41-001343-02 REV04 – 05.2014 1-50
Firmware and Configuration Files
Description
By default on startup, the phone downloads its firmware and configuration files from the configuration server you have
set; or you can manually download the firmware from the configuration server. The phone supports TFTP, FTP, HTTP and
HTTPS configuration servers.
The IP Phone firmware file (.st) include all the necessary files you need for your phone.
The firmware consists of the following file:
<phone model>.st - This file contains information about the specific IP Phone model and contains the language packs
to load to the phone.
The configuration files consist of three files called:
aastra.cfg - This file contains configuration information about the IP Phone.
<model>.cfg (for example, 6757i.cfg) - This file contains model specific information, where “model” should be the same
string that is used for the model name (e.g. 6730i.cfg, 6731i.cfg, 6735i.cfg, 6737i.cfg, 6739i.cfg, 6753i.cfg, 6755i.cfg,
6757i.cfg, 6757iCT.cfg, 6863i.cfg, 6865i.cfg, 6867i.cfg, 9143i.cfg, 9480i.cfg, 9480iCT.cfg).
<MAC>.cfg (for example, 00085D1610DE.cfg) - This file contains configuration information about the IP Phone.
The following table provides the files that the phone requests from the configuration server during bootup of the phone:
Note:
Automatic download is dependant on your configuration server setup. For more information about manual and auto-
matic download of firmware, see Chapter 8, “Upgrading the Firmware. For more information on changing the down-
load protocol on your phone, see Chapter 4, the section, “Configuring the Configuration Server Protocol” on page4-87.

Firmware and Configuration Files
1-51 41-001343-02 REV04 – 05.2014
Reference
For more information about loading language files and using the various languages on the IP phone, see Chapter 5, the
section, “Language” on page5-38.
Configuration File Precedence
Aastra IP phones can accept three sources of configuration data:
The server configuration most recently downloaded/cached from the configuration server files, aas-
tra.cfg/<model>.cfg/<mac>.cfg (or the aastra.tuz/<model>.tuz/<mac>.tuz encrypted equivalents)
Local configuration changes stored on the phone that were entered using either the IP phone UI or the Aastra Web UI
If the same parameter appears more than once in the above configuration files, the last parameter/value read will be
used (i.e., the following precedence rules will apply):
Settings in the <model>.cfg file can overwrite aastra.cfg settings
Settings in the <mac>.cfg file can overwrite <model>.cfg settings
In the event of conflicting values set by the different methods, values are applied in the following sequence:
The last values to be applied to the phone configuration are the values that take effect.
For example, if a parameter’s value is set in the local configuration (via Aastra Web UI or IP phone UI) and the same value
was also set differently in one of the aastra.cfg/<model>.cfg/<mac>.cfg files on the configuration server, the local config-
uration value is the value that takes effect because that is the last value applied to the configuration.
Installing the Firmware/Configuration Files
The following procedure describes how to install the firmware and configuration files.
1. Default values hard-coded in the phone software
2. Values downloaded from the configuration server
3. Values stored locally on the phone
1. If DHCP is disabled, manually enter the configuration server’s IP address. For details on manually setting DHCP, see Chapter 4, the section
“DHCP” on page4-3.
2. Copy the firmware file <phone model>.st to the root directory of the configuration server. The IP phone accepts the new firmware file only
if it is different from the firmware currently loaded on the IP phone.
Note:
The <phone model> attribute is the IP phone model (i.e., 9143i.st, 9480i.st, 9480iCT.st, 6730i.st, 6731i.st, 6735i.st, 6737i.st, 6739i.st, 51i.st,
53i.st, 55i.st, 57i.st, 57iCT.st).
3. Copy the Aastra configuration files (aastra.cfg, <model>.cfg, and <mac>.cfg) to the root directory of the configuration server.
Note:

Multiple Configuration Server Support
An Administrator has the option of specifying whether the phones get their firmware file, directory files, language packs,
TLS certificate files, 802.1x certificate files, and HTTPS files from the original configuration server or from another server in
the network. This feature allows you to specify the URL of other servers from which the phone can get this information.
Firmware Files and Multiple Configuration Servers
The firmware file for the phones can be downloaded from the original configuration server or from another server speci-
fied by a URL. You can specify a valid full or partial URL (server IP address) from which the phones get the firmware using a
new parameter called, “firmware server” in the configuration files. If a full URL is specified for this parameter, the phones
in the network get the security.tuz, aastra.cfg, <model>.cfg, and <mac>.cfg files from the original configuration server, and
the firmware files from the server specified in the URL.
When the “firmware server” parameter specifies a partial URL path, the configuration server that is linked to the partial
path is used to load the firmware.
For example,
firmware server: /path
When there is nofirmware serverparameter (or if it is empty), the original configuration server is used to load the
firmware.
Examples
To download all configuration and firmware files from the original configuration server:
firmware server:
Leaving this parameter blank downloads all configuration and firmware files from the original configuration server.
To download all firmware files from another specified server:
firmware server: tftp://10.30.102.158/test1
The above example uses TFTP to download all firmware files that exist in the “test1” directory on the specified server, to
the phone.
To download a partial from another specified server:
firmware server: /path
The above example uses the configuration server that is linked to the partial path to load the firmware.
Note:
The default method for the download of all files and firmware to the phones is from the original configuration server.
The Administrator must specify a correct full or partial server URL for the phones to get their firmware information
from that server. If the URL is incorrect, no firmware download occurs to the phones from the specified server.
Note:
Specifying the download of a “.st” file is not supported. For example, the following filename should NEVER be entered
as a value string for the “firmware server” parameter:
firmware server: tftp://10.30.102.158/test1/57i.st

Directory Files, Language Packs, TLS Certificates, 802.1x Certificates, HTTPS Files and Multiple
Configuration Servers
The directory files, language packs, TLS certificate files, 802.1x certificate files, and HTTPS files can also be downloaded to
the phone from a server other than the configuration server. For each of these types of files, you can specify a URL (server
IP address) from which the phone gets these files. You can use existing parameters on the phone to specify the URL. For
applicable parameters, see “Specifying a Server Using Existing Parameters on the IP Phones on page1-54.
The following table specifies the files that the original configuration server downloads, and the files that another server
can download to the phone.

IP phone UI
Aastra Web UI
Configuration files
The following paragraphs describe each method of configuring the IP Phone.
IP Phone UI
The IP Phone User Interface (UI) provides an easy way to access features and functions for using and configuring the IP
phone. Access to specific features and functions are restricted to the Administrator. A User can configure a subset of
these features and functions. Users of the IP phones should see their <Model-Specific> IP Phone User Guide for available
features and functions.
Reference
Refer to Chapter 1, the section “IP Phone Models” on page1-2 for keys specific to your phone model.
For more information about using the hard keys on each phone, see Chapter 5, the section, “Locking IP Phone Keys” on
page5-49.
For more information about the softkeys/programmable keys, see Chapter 5, the section, “Softkeys/Programmable
Keys/Feature Keys/Expansion Module Keys” on page5-104.
Options Key
The Options key allows you to access the "Options List" on the IP phone. Accessible options in this list are for both User
and Administrator use. The Administrator must enter a password for administrator options.
This document describes the administrator options only. For a description of the user options in the "Options List", see
your <Model-Specific> IP Phone User Guide.
Note:
Not all parameters are available from all three methods. For more information about configuring the phone, see Chap-
ter 4, Chapter 5, and Chapter 6.
Note:
An Administrator can apply a simplified options menu to the IP phones. An Administrator can also enable and disable
the use of an Administrator password protection in the IP phone UI. These features are configurable using the config-
uration files only. For more information about these features, see Chapter 3, the section, “Simplified IP Phone UI
Options Menu” on page page3-4, and Chapter 5, the section,Administrator Passwords” on page5-7.

Configuration Methods
41-001343-02 REV04 – 05.2014 2-7
HTTP/HTTPS Support
The Aastra Web UI supports both Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) and Hypertext Transfer Protocol over Secure Socket
Layer (HTTPS) client and server protocols.
HTTP is the set of rules for transferring files (text, graphic images, sound, video, and other multimedia files) over the Inter-
net. When you open your Web browser, you are indirectly making use of HTTP. HTTP is an application protocol that runs on
top of the TCP/IP suite of protocols (the foundation protocols for the Internet).
HTTPS is a Web protocol that encrypts and decrypts user page requests as well as the pages that are returned by the Web
server. HTTPS uses Secure Socket Layer (SSL) or Transport Layer Security (TLS) as a sublayer under its regular HTTP applica-
tion layering. SSL is a commonly-used protocol for managing the security of a message transmission on the Internet. It
uses a 40-bit key size for the RC4 stream encryption algorithm, which is considered an adequate degree of encryption for
commercial exchange. TLS is a protocol that ensures privacy between communicating applications and their users on the
Internet. When a server and client communicate, TLS ensures that no third party may eavesdrop or tamper with any mes-
sage. TLS is the successor to SSL.
HTTP/HTTPS Client and Server Support
The Aastra IP phones allow for HTTP request processing and associated data transfers to perform over a secure connection
(HTTPS). The IP phones support the following:
Transfer of firmware images, configuration files, script files, and web page content over a secure connection.
Web browser phone configuration over a secure connection
TLS 1.0or SSL 3.0 methods for both client and server
HTTPS Client
When an HTTPS client opens and closes its TCP socket, the SSL software respectively handshakes upon opening and dis-
connects upon closing from the HTTPS server. The main HTTPS client functions are:
Downloading of configuration files and firmware images
Downloading of script files based on an “HTTPS://” URL supplied by a softkey definition
HTTPS Server
The HTTPS server provides HTTP functionality over secure connections. It coexists with the HTTP server but has its own set
of tasks. The main HTTPS server functions are:
Delivery of web page content to a browser client over a secure connection
Execution of HTTP GET and POST requests received over a secure connection
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 connec-
tion automatically). A user can also abort the HTTP loading by pressing the GOODBYE key while the phone is displaying
“Loading Page........
Note:
HTTPS uses port 443 instead of HTTP port 80 in its interactions with the TCP/IP lower layer. Both the HTTP and HTTPS
port numbers are configurable using the configuration files, the IP Phone UI, the Aastra Web UI and DHCP Option 66.
For more information about configuring these ports, see Chapter 4, the section, “Configuring the Configuration Server
Protocol” on page4-87.
Note:
This feature impacts only the HTTP calls triggered by a phone key (softkey or programmable key); the HTTP calls per-
formed by action URIs are still blocking.
Configuration Methods
2-8 41-001343-02 REV04 – 05.2014
Authentication Support for HTTP/HTTPS Download Methods for Broadsoft Client Management System (CMS)
The IP Phones have authentication support as referenced in RFC 2617 when using HTTP or HTTPS as download proto-
cols. 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 informa-
tion about this feature, see Chapter 5, the section, Authentication Support for HTTP/HTTPS Download Methods, used
with Broadsoft Client Management System (CMS)” on page5-272.
Using HTTPS via the Aastra Web UI
HTTPS is enabled by default on the IP phones. When you open a browser window and enter an IP address or host name
for a phone using HTTP, a server redirection occurs which automatically converts an HTTP connection to an HTTPS con-
nection. After the redirection, a “Security Alert” certificate window displays alerting the user that information exchanged
with the phone cannot be viewed or changed by others. Accepting the certificate then forwards you to the phones Web
UI.
Reference
For more information on configuring the HTTPS protocol, see Chapter 4, the sections:
“Configuring the Configuration Server Protocol” on page4-87
“HTTPS Client/Server Configuration on page4-33
Notes:
The private key and certificate generate outside the phone and embed in the phone firmware for use by the HTTPS
server during the SSL handshake.
Using the configuration files, the IP phone UI, or the Aastra Web UI, you can configure the following regarding HTTPS:
- Specify HTTPS security client method to use (TLS 1.0 or SSL 3.0)
- Enable or disable HTTP to HTTPS server redirect function
- HTTPS server blocking of XML HTTP POSTS to the phone
Configuration Methods

Configuration Methods
2-14 41-001343-02 REV04 – 05.2014
Enabling/Disabling the Aastra Web UI
The Aastra Web UI is enabled by default on the IP phones. A System Administrator can disable the Aastra Web UI on a sin-
gle phone or on all phones if required using the configuration files.
System Administrators can also disable Users ability to login to the Aastra Web UI. With the Aastra Web UI disabled, users
will still be able to lock/unlock the phone with a PIN from the IP Phone. Administrators can disable the user Web UI using
the configuration file. System Administrators have the option to either disable the Web UI for both the Administrator and
User, enable for both the Administrator and User, or enable the Web UI only for the Administrator.Use the following pro-
cedure to enable and disable the Aastra Web UI.
To Disable the Aastra Web UI:
Configuration Files (Administrator Only)
A system administrator can enter specific parameters in the configuration files to configure the IP phones. All parameters
in configuration files can only be set by an administrator.
You can enter specific configuration parameters in either of the following configuration files:
aastra.cfg
<model>.cfg
<mac>.cfg
References
For information about configuration file precedence, see Chapter 1, “Overview.
For a description of each configuration file parameter, see AppendixA, “Configuration Parameters.
Using the Configuration Files
When you use the configuration files to configure the IP phones, you must use a text-based editing application to open
the configuration file (aastra.cfg, <model>.cfg, or <mac>.cfg).
Use the following procedure to add, delete, or change parameters and their settings in the configuration files.
Configuration Files
1. Using a text-based editing application, open the <mac>.cfg file if you want to disable the Web UI on a single phone. Open the aastra.cfg
file to disable the Web UI on all phones
2. Enter the following parameter:
web interface enabled: 0
Note:
A value of zero (0) disables the Web UI on the phone for Administrators and Users. A value of (1) enables the Web UI for Administrators and
Users. A value of (2) enables the Web UI for administrators only.
3. Save the changes and close the <model>.cfg, <mac>.cfg or the aastra.cfg file.
4. Restart the phone to apply the changes. The Aastra Web UI is disabled for a single IP phone or for all phones.
Note:
Apply this procedure wherever this Administrator Guide refers to configuring parameters using the configuration files.
Configuration Methods
41-001343-02 REV04 – 05.2014 2-15
Locking Parameters in the Configuration File
The IP Phones allow you to lock individual configuration parameters to prevent an end user from changing the configura-
tion on the phone. This feature allows service providers to prevent the end-user from changing the values of specific
parameters that would affect the service they provide.
An Administrator can lock parameters on the phone by placing an exclamation mark (!) before the parameter in the con-
figuration file. For example,
!admin password: 22222
!emergency dial plan: 911|999
You can lock parameters on the phone using the configuration files. Once the parameters are locked, they cannot be
changed at all during the phones run-time. The parameters appear as read-only when accessing the Aastra Web UI and
the IP Phone UI. In the Aastra Web UI, they appear grayed out. In the IP Phone UI the ability to change the parameters is
removed. In addition, when parameters are locked, they cannot be changed via XML.
Limitations
A User possessing the Administrator password can bypass the locking of configuration server details by defaulting the
phone.
Softkeys can be locked and unlocked via XML in Release 3.3.1 and up using the AastraIPPhoneConfiguration object
and softkeyN locked parameter (for more information about using the AastraIPPhoneConfiguration object, contact
Aastra Customer Support regarding the Aastra XML Development Guide). All other parameters cannot be locked or
unlocked using XML.
Configuration files that include locked parameters are not backwards compatible.
Overwriting Parameters with Defaults in the Configuration Files
An Administrator can specify a “ ^ “ (caret character) before a configuration parameter in the aastra.cfg, <model>.cfg, and
<mac>.cfg configuration files, which allows the parameter to be overwritten and reset back to a specified value. This can
be convenient when changes are made by a user to specific parameters on the phone locally (via Aastra Web UI or IP
Phone UI), and the Administrator wants to set the parameters back to the default values using the configuration files.
Configuration Files
1. Using a text-based editing application, open the configuration file for the phone, for which you want to configure the directory list (either
aastra.cfg, <model>.cfg, <mac>.cfg or all three).
2. Enter the required configuration parameters followed by the applicable value. For example,
directory 1: company_directory
directory 2: my_personal_directory
3. Save the changes and close the configuration file.
4. If the parameter requires the phone to be restarted in order for it to take affect, use the IP Phone UI or the Aastra Web UI to restart the
phone.
Notes:
The “parameter locking” feature applies to Release 2.4 and up. Any phones that have a previous release loaded on the
phone will not be able to use the locking functionality in the configuration file.
Any parameter duplicated in the <model>.cfg from the aastra.cfg is overwritten by the locking status and the value
of the parameter found in the <model>.cfg file. Parameters in the <mac>.cfg file overwrite parameters in the
<model>.cfg and aastra.cfg files.
Configuration Methods
2-16 41-001343-02 REV04 – 05.2014
As an example, the following table describes how the parameter “sip proxy ip” is handled by the phone during phone
bootup when either the “ ^ “ (default parameter) is used or the “ ! “ (locked parameter) is used.
Example 1
The following example illustrates the use of the “ ^ “ in the configuration files.
aastra.cfg
^sip proxy ip: pbx.company.com
^sip proxy port: 5060
^sip registrar ip: pbx.company.com
^sip registrar port: 5060
In the above example, if an Administrator indicates the “ ^ “ before the parameters in the aastra.cfg file, and then loads
the aastra.cfg file to the phone, these four parameters are reset to their default values, even if the parameters were previ-
ously changed on the phone.
Example 2
The following example illustrates the use of the “ ^ “ and “!” in the configuration files.
aastra.cfg
^sip proxy ip: pbx.company.com
^sip proxy port: 5060
^sip registrar ip: pbx.company.com
^sip registrar port: 5060
<model>.cfg
!sip proxy ip: pbx.aastra.com //this parameter is locked
!sip proxy port: 5062 //this parameter is locked
!sip registrar ip: pbx.aastra.com //this parameter is locked
!sip registrar port: 5062 //this parameter is locked
<mac>.cfg
sip proxy port: 5064 //this parameter is unlocked
sip registrar port: 5064 //this parameter is unlocked
IF THEN
new <mac>.cfg file is loaded to the phone with “^sip proxy ip” and any
other parameter(s) from the file specifying a “ ^ the “^sip proxy ip” and any other “ ^ “ parameters are overwritten if pre-
viously changed by the user.
new <model>.cfg file is loaded to the phone with “^sip proxy ip” and any
other parameter(s) from the file specifying a “ ^ the “^sip proxy ip” and any other “ ^ “ parameters are overwritten if pre-
viously changed by the user.
new aastra.cfg file is loaded to the phone with “^sip proxy ip” and any
other parameter(s) from the file specifying a “ ^ the “^sip proxy ip” and any other “ ^ “ parameters are overwritten if pre-
viously changed by the user.
the first instance is “^sip proxy ip” and second instance is “!sip proxy ip
in the aastra.cfg, <model>.cfg, and/or <mac>.cfg file, the value for the second instance of the parameter (“!sip proxy ip”) over-
writes to the aastra.cfg, <model>.cfg, and/or <mac>.cfg files previously on
the phone.
Notes:
XML reboots take precedence over server.cfg values. Therefore, “ ^ “ parameters are ignored in the aastra.cfg file
during XML reboots.
If a parameter has both a “ ^ “ and a “ ! “ preceding the same parameter (i.e., ^!sip proxy ip: pbx.company.com), then
theparameter is ignored and NOT overwritten.
Configuration Methods
41-001343-02 REV04 – 05.2014 2-17
With this configuration, on the Web UI, the "sip proxy ip" and "sip registrar ip” parameters cannot be modified (they are
grayed out), and the value is "pbx.aastra.com" since <model>.cfg has overwritten aastra.cfg.
The "sip proxy port" and "sip registrar port" parameters can be modified through Web UI because <mac>.cfg has over-
written <model>.cfg and aastra.cfg. On the Web UI, the value for these parameters is 5064.
Configuration Server Redundancy via DNS A Records
The phone sends a DNS query and in the DNS response, it accepts the first server IP address and contacts that server,
ignoring any additional IP addresses in the response. This allows service providers to manage load balancing (via the DNS
server putting different records first on each request), but does not provide redundancy.
The phones also provide support of multiple IP addresses being returned for the DNS lookup for server redundancy via
multiple DNS A record entries. The phone tries to contact the first server address it receives, but if this fails, it now tries to
contact the second server address, etc.
This feature supports all the download protocols (TFTP, FTP, HTTP, and HTTPS).
Limitation
In certain cases, the TFTP Protocol cannot distinguish between “server down” and “no file on server” error messages;
therefore, the failover in these instances may fail.
Notes:
Once the phone has failed over to a redundant server, it continues to use that server for all other server-related proc-
esses on the phone (i.e., firmware upgrades from the Web UI, boot-up process, etc.).
If a server fails while downloading a file(s) to the phone, the phone performs the discovery process of finding a
redundant server that is available. When the boot is complete on the redundant server, the phone tries to download
the file(s) again from the previous server. The check-sync process also performs the same way when a server fails.
The “Skipsoftkey displays in the event of a network outage, the user can skip the configuration download and con-
tinue the boot.
All server failovers and failed server IP addresses are logged in the “Error Messages” page on the IP Phone UI at
Options->Phone Status->Error Messages.

Account Configuration
The IP phones have a DND and CFWD feature that allows an Administrator and User to configure “do not disturb” and
call forwarding” by account. You can set specific modes for the way you want the phone to handle DND and CFWD. The
three modes you can set on the phone for these features are:
Account
Phone
Custom
You can set the modes for DND and CFWD in the Aastra Web UI at the path Basic Settings->Preferences->General, or using
the following parameters in the configurations files:
dnd key mode
call forward key mode
The following table describes the behavior of the mode settings for DND and CFWD.
References
For more information about account configuration of DND and CFWD on the IP Phones, see Chapter 5, the sections:
For DND:

Network Settings
The following paragraphs describe the network parameters you can configure on the IP phone. Network settings are in
two categories:
Basic network settings
Advanced network settings
Modes DND CFWD
Account Sets DND for a specific account. A pre-configured DND
key toggles the account in focus on the IP Phone UI, to
ON or OFF.
Sets CFWD on a per account basis. Pressing a pre-configured CFWD key
applies to the account in focus
Phone Sets DND ON for all accounts on the phone. A pre-config-
ured DND key toggles all accounts on the phone to ON
or OFF.
Sets the same CFWD configuration for all accounts (All, Busy, and/or No
Answer). When you configure the initial account, the phone applies the con-
figuration to all other accounts. (In the Aastra Web UI, only the account you
configured is enabled. All other accounts are grayed out but set to the same
configuration.) Using the Aastra Web UI, if you make changes to that initial
account, the changes apply to all accounts on the phone.
Custom Sets the phone to display custom screens after pressing
a pre-configured DND key, that list the account(s) on the
phone. The user can select a specific account for DND,
turn DND ON for all accounts, or turn DND OFF for all
accounts
Sets CFWD for a specific account or all accounts. You can configure a specific
mode (All, Busy, and/or No Answer) for each account independently or all
accounts. On the 3-line LCD phones, you can set all accounts to ALL On or
ALL Off. On the 8 and 11-line LCD phones, you can set all accounts to All On,
All Off, or copy the configuration for the account in focus to all other
accounts using a CopytoAll softkey.
Note:
Specific parameters are configurable using the Aastra Web UI only and are indicated where applicable.

DHCP DHCP dhcp Enables or disables DHCP. Enabling DHCP populates the
required network information. The DHCP server serves the
network information that the IP phone requires. If the IP phone
is unable to get any required information, then you must enter
it manually. DHCP populates the following network informa-
tion:
IP Address, Subnet Mask, Gateway, Domain Name System
(DNS) servers, TFTP, HTTP HTTPS, and FTP servers, and Timer
servers.
Note:
For DHCP to automatically populate the IP address or qualified
domain name for the TFTP server, your DHCP server must sup-
port Option 66. The IP phones also support Option 60 and 43.
For more information, see “DHCP on page4-3.
IP Address IP Address ip IP address of the IP phone. To assign a static IP address, disable
DHCP.

XML HTTP POSTs HTTPS Server - Block XML
HTTP POSTs https block http post xml Enables or disables the blocking of XML scripts from HTTP
POSTs.
Some client applications use HTTP POSTs to transfer XML
scripts. The phoness HTTP server accepts these POSTs even if
server redirection is enabled, effectively bypassing the secure
connection. When this parameter is enabled (blocking is ena-
bled), receipt of an HTTP POST containing an XML parameter
header results in the following response:
“403 Forbidden. This forces the client to direct the POSTs to
the HTTPS server through use of the “https://” URL.
For more information, see Chapter 4, “HTTPS Client/Server
Configuration” on page4-33.
Client Method HTTPS Client Method https client method Defines the security method that the client advertises to the
server during the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) handshake. Avail-
able options are:
TLS 1.0 - Transport Layer Security version 1 (TLS 1.0) is a pro-
tocol that ensures privacy between communicating applica-
tions and their users on the Internet. TLS is the successor to
SSL.

Cert Validation Validate Certificates https validate certificates Enables or disables the HTTPS validation of certificates on the
phone. When this parameter is set to 1, the HTTPS client per-
forms validation on SSL certificates before accepting them.
Notes:
If you are using HTTPS as a configuration method, and use a
self signed certificate, you must set this parameter to “0”
(disabled) before upgrading to Release 2.3 or later of the IP
Phones.
If you are using HTTPS and the certificates are not valid or
are not signed by Verisign, Thawte, or GeoTrust, Comodo,
Entrust, or CyberTrust, the phones fail to download config-
uration files.
Defining this parameter as "0" (disabled) significantly
reduces security for the provisioning process to encryption
only. Validation of the chain-of-trust (i.e. the originator of
the files) will not be performed if this feature is disabled.
Therefore, disabling HTTPS validation of certificates is only
recommended for troubleshooting purposes or when self-
signed certificates are in use.
For more information, see Chapter 4, HTTPS Server Certifi-
cate Validation on page4-36.
Check Expires Check Certificate Expira-
tion https validate expires Enables or disables the HTTPS validation of the expiration of
the certificates. When this parameter is set to 1, the HTTPS cli-
ent verifies whether or not a certificate has expired prior to
accepting the certificate.
Note:
If thehttps validate expires” parameter is set to enable, the
clock on the phone must be set for the phone to accept the
certificates.
For more information, see Chapter 4, HTTPS Server Certifi-

Transport Protocol sip transport protocol The protocol that the IP phone uses to send out SIP messages.
Notes:
If you set the value of this parameter to 4 (TLS), the phone checks to see
if the “sips persistent tls” is enabled. If it is enabled, the phone uses Per-
sistent TLS on the connection. If sips persistent tls” is disabled, then the
phone uses TLS on the connection. If TLS is used, you must specify the
Root and Intermediate Certificates, the Local Certificate, the Private Key,
and the Trusted Certificates.
If the phone uses Persistent TLS, you MUST specify the Trusted Certifi-
cates; the Root and Intermediate Certificates, the Local Certificate, and
the Private Key are optional.
For more information, see Chapter 4, Advanced SIP Settings (optional)” on
page4-69.
Local SIP UDP/TCP Port sip local port Specifies the local source port (UDP/TCP) from which the phone sends SIP
messages.
Notes:
It is recommended that you avoid the conflict RTP port range in case of a
UDP transport.
By default, the IP phones use symmetric UDP signaling for outgoing UDP
SIP messages. When symmetric UDP is enabled, the IP phone generates
and listens for UDP messages using port 5060.If symmetric UDP signaling
is disabled, the phone sends from random ports but it listens on the con-
figured SIP local port.
For more information, see Chapter 4, “SIP and TLS Source Ports for NAT
Traversal on page4-27.
Local SIP TLS Port sip local tls port Specifies the local source port (SIPS/TLS) from which the phone sends SIP
messages.
Notes:
It is recommended that you avoid the conflict with any TCP ports being
used. For example: WebUI HTTP server on 80/tcp and HTTPS on 443/tcp.
By default, the IP phones use symmetric TLS signaling for outgoing TLS
SIP messages. When symmetric TLS is enabled, the IP phone uses port
5061 as the persistent TLS connection source port. When symmetric TLS
signaling is disabled, the IP phone chooses a random persistent TLS con-
nection source port for TLS messages from the TCP range (i.e.
49152...65535) after each reboot regardless of whether the parameter
“sip outbound support” is enabled or disabled.
For more information, see Chapter 4, “SIP and TLS Source Ports for NAT
Traversal on page4-27.
Registration Failed Retry Timer sip registration retry timer Specifies the time, in seconds, that the phone waits between registration
attempts when a registration is rejected by the registrar.
For more information, see Chapter 4, Advanced SIP Settings (optional)” on
page4-69.
Registration Timeout Retry Timer sip registration timeout retry timer Specifies the length of time, in seconds, that the phone waits until it re-
attempts to register after a REGISTER message times out.
If this parameter is set lower than 30 seconds, the phone uses a minimum
timer of 30 seconds.
For more information, see Chapter 4, Advanced SIP Settings (optional)” on
page4-69.

Registration Renewal Timer sip registration renewal timer The threshold value, in seconds, prior to expiration, that the phone renews
registrations. The phone will automatically send registration renewals half-
way through the registration period, unless half-way is more than the
threshold value.
For example, if the threshold value is set to 60 seconds and if the registra-
tion period is 600 seconds, the renewal REGISTER message will be sent 60
seconds prior to the expiration, as half-way (600/2) > 60. If the registration
period was 100 seconds, then the renewal would be sent at the half-way
point as (100/2) < 60.
For more information, see Chapter 4, Advanced SIP Settings (optional)” on
page4-69.
N/A sip subscription timeout retry timer Applicable for all event packages, this parameter controls how long the
phone delays then retries a subscription when a SUBSCRIBE request is
responded with a 408 (timeout) or 503 (service unavailable) error code.
For more information, see Chapter 4, Advanced SIP Settings (optional)” on
page4-69.
N/A sip subscription failed retry timer Applicable for all event packages, this parameter controls how long the
phone delays then retries a subscription when a SUBSCRIBE request is
responded with error codes other than 408 (timeout) or 503 (service
unavailable).
For more information, see Chapter 4, Advanced SIP Settings (optional)” on
page4-69.
BLF Subscription Period sip blf subscription period The requested duration, in seconds, before the BLF subscription times out.
The phone re-subscribes to the BLF subscription service before the defined
subscription period ends.
Note:
This parameter is not applicable to BLF/List subscriptions.
For more information, see Chapter 4, Advanced SIP Settings (optional)” on
page4-69.
ACD Subscription Period sip acd subscription period Specifies the time period, in seconds, that the IP phone re-subscribes the
Automatic Call Distribution (ACD) subscription service after a soft-
ware/firmware upgrade or after a reboot of the IP phone.
For more information, see Chapter 4, Advanced SIP Settings (optional)” on
page4-69.
BLA Subscription Period sip bla subscription period Specifies the amount of time, in seconds, that the phone waits to receive a
BLA subscribe message from the server. If you specify zero (0), the phone
uses the value specified for the BLA expiration in the subscribe message
received from the server. If no value is specified, the phone uses the default
value of 300 seconds.
For more information, see Chapter 4, Advanced SIP Settings (optional)” on
page4-69.
Blacklist Duration sip blacklist duration Specifies the length of time, in seconds, that a failed server remains on the
server blacklist. The IP phone avoids sending a SIP message to a failed
server (if another server is available) for this amount of time.

Action URI
The IP phones have a feature that allows an administrator to specify a uniform resource identifier (URI) that triggers a GET
when certain XML events occur. The Action URI feature prevents the phones from hanging if the Action URIs should fail.
The phones also support transparent, non-blocking, XML post execute item URIs.
The IP phone XML events that support this feature are defined in the following table.
You can set these parameters using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.
Reference
For more information about setting the Action URIs for XML applications, see “Action URIs on page5-246.
XML SIP Notify Events and Action URIs
In order for an XML push to bypass the NAT/firewall, the phone supports a proprietary SIP NOTIFY event (aastra-xml) with
or without XML content.
If XML content is provided in the SIP NOTIFY, it is processed directly by the phone as it is done for an XML PUSH.
Reference
For more information about enabling the XML SIP Notify on the IP Phones, see Chapter 5, the section, “XML SIP Notify
Events” on page5-256.
Action URI Description
Startup Specifies the URI for which the phone executes a GET on when a startup event occurs.
Successful Registration Specifies the URI for which the phone executes a GET on when a successful registration event occurs.
Registration Event Specifies the URI for when registration events occur or when there are registration state changes.
Note:
This action URI is not called when the same event is repeated (for example, a timeout occurs again when registration is
already in a timeout state.)
Incoming Call Specifies the URI for which the phone executes a GET on when an incoming call event occurs.
Outgoing Call Specifies the URI for which the phone executes a GET on when an outgoing call event occurs.
Offhook Specifies the URI for which the phone executes a GET on when an offhook event occurs.
Onhook Specifies the URI for which the phone executes a GET on when an onhook event occurs.
Connected Specifies the URI for which the phone executes an HTTP GET when it goes into the “connected” state. This includes regular
phone calls, intercom calls, paging calls, RTP streaming, and the playing of a WAV file. It is also triggered when the phone
establishes the second leg of a 3-way call.
Disconnected Specifies the URI that the phone executes a GET on, when it transitions from the incoming, outgoing, calling, or con-
nected state into the idle state.
XML SIP Notify Specifies the URI to be called when an empty XML SIP NOTIFY is received by the phone.
Poll Specifies the URI to be called every "action uri poll interval" seconds.
Poll Interval Specifies the interval, in seconds, between calls from the phone to the "action uri poll".

3-47 41-001343-02 REV04 – 05.2014
Polling Action URIs
Another way to reach a phone behind a NAT/firewall is to have the phone make an XML call at periodic intervals. An
Administrator can use the action uri poll to command the phone to perform an XML call at configurable intervals.
An Administrator can specify the URI to be called and specify the interval between polls. Configuration of this feature is
dynamic (no reboot required).
Reference
For more information about configuring the polling and polling interval of Action URIs, see “Polling Action URIs on

Auto-Resync Settings
N/A Mode auto resync mode Enables and disables the phone to be updated automatically
once a day at a specific time in a 24-hour period. This param-
eter works with TFTP, FTP, and HTTP servers.
Notes:
If a user is accessing the Aastra Web UI, they are not
informed of an auto-reboot.
Any changes made using the Aastra Web UI or the IP phone
UI are not overwritten by an auto-resync update. Auto-
resync affects the configuration files only. However, the
settings in the Aastra Web UI take precedence over the IP
phone UI and the configuration files.
The resync time is based on the local time of the IP phone.
If the IP phone is in use (not idle) at the time of the resync
check, the reboot occurs when the phone becomes idle.
The automatic update feature works with both encrypted
and plain text configuration files.
For more information, see Chapter 8, the section, “Using the
Auto-Resync Feature” on page8-5.
N/A Time (24-hour) auto resync time Sets the time of day in a 24-hour period for the IP phone to
be automatically updated. This parameter works with TFTP,
FTP, and HTTP servers.
Notes:
The resync time is based on the local time of the IP phone.
The value of 00:00 is 12:00 A.M.
When selecting a value for this parameter in the Aastra
Web UI, the values are in 30-minute increments only.
When entering a value for this parameter using the config-
uration files, the value can be entered using minute values
from 00 to 59 (for example, the auto resync time can be
entered as 02:56).
For more information, see Chapter 8, the section, “Using the
Auto-Resync Feature” on page8-5.
N/A Maximum Delay auto resync max delay Specifies the maximum time, in minutes, the phone waits
past the scheduled time before starting a checksync.

Firmware Update Features
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.
You can download the firmware stored on the configuration server in one of three ways:
Using theFirmware 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).
Reference
For more information about firmware update, see Chapter 8, “Upgrading the Firmware.
TLS Support
The IP Phones support a transport protocol called Transport Layer Security (TLS) and Persistent TLS. TLS is a protocol
that ensures communication privacy between the SIP phones and the Internet. TLS ensures that no third party may
eavesdrop or tamper with any message. An Administrator can configure the following parameters for TLS Support.
Parameter In
IP Phone UI Parameter in
Aastra Web UI Parameters in Configura-
tion Files Description
N/A Transport Protocol sip transport protocol Specifies the protocol that the IP phone uses to send out SIP messages.
Default is UDP.
Notes:
If you set the value of this parameter to 4 (TLS), the phone checks to see
if the “sips persistent tls” is enabled. If it is enabled, the phone uses Per-
sistent TLS on the connection. If “sips persistent tls” is disabled, then
the phone uses TLS on the connection. If TLS is used, you must specify
the Root and Intermediate Certificates, the Local Certificate, the Private
Key, and the Trusted Certificates.
If the phone uses Persistent TLS, you MUST specify the Trusted Certifi-
cates; the Root and Intermediate Certificates, the Local Certificate, and
the Private Key are optional.
For more information, see Chapter 6, the section, Transport Layer Secu-
rity (TLS)” on page6-16.
N/A N/A sips persistent tls Enables or disables the use of Persistent Transport Layer Security (TLS).
Persistent TLS sets up the connection to the server once and re-uses that
connection for all calls from the phone. The setup connection for Persist-
ent TLS is established during the registration of the phone. If the phones
are set to use Persistent TLS, and a call is made from the phone, this call
and all subsequent calls use the same authenticated connection. This sig-
nificantly reduces the delay time when placing a call.
Notes:
There can be only one persistent TLS connection created per phone.
If you configure the phone to use Persistent TLS, you must also specify
the Trusted Certificate file to use. The Root and Intermediate Certifi-
cates, Local Certificate, and Private Key files are optional.
For more information, see Chapter 6, the section, Transport Layer Secu-
rity (TLS)” on page6-16.
Administrator Level Options
41-001343-02 REV04 – 05.2014 3-52
NA NA sip persistent tls keep alive Allows you to configure the keep-alive feature for persistent TLS connec-
tions only. When this feature is configured, the phone will send keep-alive
pings to the proxy server at configured intervals.
The keep-alive feature for persistent TLS connections performs the fol-
lowing functionalities:
After a persistent TLS connection is established or re-established, acti-
vate the keep-alive, which will send CRLF to peer periodically.
The phone will retry the connection automatically when a persistent
TLS connection is down.
When a persistent TLS connection is re-established (primary is up or
primary is down and backup is up), refresh registration of the accounts
associated with the connection.
When a persistent TLS connection to primary is down, switch to
backup if connection to backup is working.
NA NA sip send sips over tls Allows administrators the ability to manually configure the IP phones to
use either the SIP or SIPS URI scheme when TLS or persistent TLS is ena-
bled.
For more information, see Chapter 6, the section, “Transport Layer Secu-
rity (TLS)” on page6-16.
N/A Root and Intermediate
Certificates Filename sips root and intermediate
certificates Allows you to specify the SIP Root and Intermediate Certificate files to use
when the phone uses the TLS transport protocol to setup a call.
The Root and Intermediate Certificate files contain one root certificate
and zero or more intermediate certificates which must be placed in order
of certificate signing with root certificate being the first in the file. If the
local certificate is signed by some well known certificate authority, then
that authority provides the user with the Root and Intermediate Certifi-
cate files (most likely just CA root certificate).
This parameter is required when configuring TLS (optional for Persistent
TLS.)
Note:
The certificate files must use the format “.pem. To create custom certifi-
cate files to use on your IP phone, contact Aastra Technical Support.
For more information, see Chapter 6, the section, “Transport Layer Secu-
rity (TLS)” on page6-16.
N/A Local Certificate
Filename sips local certificate Allows you to specify the Local Certificate file to use when the phone uses
the TLS transport protocol to setup a call.
This parameter is required when configuring TLS (optional for Persistent
TLS.)
Note:
The certificate file must use the format “.pem”. To create specific certificate
files to use on your IP phone, contact Aastra Technical Support.
For more information, see Chapter 6, the section, “Transport Layer Secu-
rity (TLS)” on page6-16.

TLS transport protocol to setup a call.
This parameter is required when configuring TLS (optional for Persistent
TLS.)
Note:
The key file must use the format “.pem”. To create specific private key files
to use on your IP phone, contact Aastra Technical Support.
For more information, see Chapter 6, the section, Transport Layer Secu-
rity (TLS)” on page6-16.
N/A Trusted Certificates
Filename sips trusted certificates Allows you to specify the Trusted Certificate files to use when the phone
uses the TLS transport protocol to setup a call.
The Trusted Certificate files define a list of trusted certificates. The
phone’s trusted list must contain the CA root certificates for all the servers
it is connecting to. For example, if the phone is connecting to server A
which has a certificate signed by CA1, and server B that has a certificate
signed by CA2, the phone must have CA1 root certificate and CA2 root
certificate in its Trusted Certificate file.
This parameter is required when configuring TLS or Persistent TLS.
Note:
The certificate files must use the format “.pem”. To create custom certifi-
cate files to use on your IP phone, contact Aastra Technical Support.

Enabling/Disabling DHCP Using the Aastra Web UI
Use the following procedure to enable/disable DHCP using the Aastra Web UI.
DHCP Options 60, 66, and 43 Server Configurations
Option 66
The IP Phones support download protocols as referenced in RFC2131 and RFC1541 (TFTP, FTP, HTTP,. HTTPS) to support
DHCP option 66. Option 66 is part of the DHCP Offer message that the DHCP server generates to tell the phone which con-
figuration server it should use to download new firmware and configuration files.
For DHCP to automatically populate the IP address or domain name for the servers, your DHCP server must support
Option 66. Option 66 is responsible for forwarding the servers IP address or domain name to the phone automatically. If
your DHCP server does not support Option 66, you must manually enter the IP address or domain name for your applica-
ble configuration server into your IP phone configuration.
Options 60 and 43
The Aastra phones also support Option 60 and Option 43 as referenced in RFC 2132.
Option 60 (Vendor Class Identifier) provides the DHCP server with a unique identifier for each phone model. This enables
a system administrator to send the phone a customized Server Configuration in option 43.
The table below lists the identifier values for each phone model.

Option 43 Redirection and Configuration Server (RCS) Bypass
DHCP Option 43 includes the ability to bypass contacting Aastra's Redirection and Configuration Server (RCS), in addi-
tion to the previous support of setting the configuration server to contact.
A sub-option code 3 uses a boolean value (true or false) that controls whether or not the phone should contact the RCS
after a factory default. If this value is set to false, the RCS is not contacted. If it is set to true or is missing, then the RCS is
contacted as per previous releases. This can be used in conjunction with the existing code 2 sub-option to set the con-
figuration server.
Configuring RCS Bypass via Option 43 on a Linux DHCP Server
The following example illustrates how to configure RCS bypass via Option 43 on a Linux DHCP server.

Using Option 120 on the IP Phone
DHCP Option 120 (as referenced in RFC 3361) allows SIP clients to locate a local SIP server (i.e. outbound proxy server)
that can be used for all outbound SIP requests. Using the “use dhcp option 120” configuration parameter, administra-
tors can enable support for DHCP Option 120 on the IP phones. This is particularly useful when service providers require
the IP phones to use certain outbound proxy servers or Session Border Controllers (SBCs) based on geographical loca-
tion and have provisioned the outbound proxy by using DHCP Option 120. The parameter is disabled by default.
Considerations
The following considerations must be taken into account when enabling support for DHCP Option 120 on the IP phones:
If the parameter is enabled and DHCP Option 120 contains a valid value, the IP phones will use the server IP/name
obtained via DHCP Option 120 as the outbound proxy for both the Global SIP and Line 1 profiles.
If Line 2 is configured and the outbound proxy is not defined, the phone will use the outbound proxy located in the
Global SIP profile.
Network Settings
41-001343-02 REV04 – 05.2014 4-9
If Line 2 is configured with a valid outbound proxy, the phone will retain the configured Line 2 outbound proxy and
ignore the Global SIP profile. This allows for Line 2 to be registered to another service with another outbound proxy if
required.
If Line 2 is configured for another service but no outbound proxy is wanted/required, administrators should not leave
the outbound proxy as undefined (i.e. 0.0.0.0) as the phone will use the outbound proxy located in the Global SIP pro-
file. Instead, administrators should specify the proxy/registrar’s address as the outbound proxy.
If the parameter is enabled, but the server does not have an outbound proxy configured, DHCP Option 120 is ignored
and the phone will behave as if the parameter is disabled.
As Option 120 does not support port numbers directly, if a non-standard port (i.e. other than 5060) is required, this
must be set using the configuration parameter “sip outbound proxy port” or by the use of DNS SRV in which case “sip
outbound proxy port” must be set to 0.
Enabling/Disabling DHCP Option 120 Using the Configuration Files
Use the following procedure to enable/disable DHCP Option 120 using the configuration files.
Using Option 132 (802.1P VLAN ID) and Option 43 to Transfer VLAN ID Assignment Using DHCP
There are now two ways of transporting the VLAN ID parameter in the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP):
By DHCP Option 43 (vendor specific information)
By DHCP Option 132 (802.1P VLAN ID)
When the phone receives the VLAN ID from the DHCP and the value is different from the one used by the phone to trigger
the DHCP request, the phone reboots and then sends a new DHCP request in the new VLAN. The phone will remember the
VLAN ID obtained by DHCP options so that on a reboot, the phone will send a DHCP request using the correct VLAN.
If using DHCP Option 43 to transfer VLAN ID assignment the following sub-options are utilized. Additionally, the corre-
sponding rules must be followed:
Alternatively, administrators can use the “dhcp option 132 vlan id enabled” parameter to enable the VLAN ID assign-
ment transfer using DHCP feature. Option 132 provides the same functionality as Option 43 but the data format of the
VLAN ID value must be 2 bytes, whereas the first and second bytes encompass the VLAN ID (the valid range of the VLAN ID
being 1 - 4095).
Precedence
LLDP values should have precedence over the DHCP
DHCP values should have precedence over the configuration files
DHCP should have precedence over the Local values (configured by the Local MMI of the phone)
DHCP Option 43 should have precedence over DHCP Option 132
Configuration Files
For specific parameters you can set in the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section, “DHCP Option Settings” on pageA-12.
Sub-
Option/Code Description Rule
08 ID string to enable the use of the VLAN identity in
sub-option/code 09. Must be specified to avoid
conflict with other vendors.
Must be the 16-byte character string Aastra{space}Telecom{space}{space}”
(i.e. Aastra Telecom followed by two space characters).
16-byte hex equivalent: 4161737472612054656c65636f6d2020
09 VLAN ID value Must be 4 bytes, whereas the first and second byte must be 0x00, and the third
and fourth bytes encompass the VLAN ID. The valid range of the VLAN ID is 1 -
4095.
For example, a VLAN ID of 100 (in dec) is 00 00 00 64 in hex.

Enabling/Disabling DHCP Option 132 VLAN ID Using the Configuration Files
Use the following procedure to enable/disable DHCP Option 132 VLAN ID using the configuration files.
Using Option 12 Hostname on the IP Phone
If you set the phone to use DHCP Option 12, the phone automatically sends this option to the configuration server. This
option specifies the hostname (name of the client). The name may or may not be qualified with the local domain name
(based on RFC 2132). See RFC 1035 for character set restrictions.
An Administrator can change the “Hostname” for the DHCP Option 12 via the configuration files, the IP Phone UI, and the
Aastra Web UI.
Configuration Files
For specific parameters you can set in the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section, “DHCP Option Settings on pageA-12.
Notes:
The hostname of [<model><MAC address>] automatically populates the field on initial startup of the phone. For
example, for a 6753i, the “Hostname” field is automatically populated as “53i00085D164435”, where the model
number is “6753i” and the MAC address is “00085D164435.
If the configuration server sends the hostname back to the phone in a DHCP Reply Packet, the hostname is ignored.

Using Option 77 User Class on the IP Phone
DHCP Option 77 User Class is sent in DHCP request packets from the phone to the configuration server. This Option 77
defines specific User Class identifiers to convey information about a phone’s software configuration or about its user's
preferences. For example, you can use the User Class option to configure all phones in the Accounting Department with
different user preferences than the phones in the Marketing Department. A DHCP server uses the User Class option to
choose the address pool for which it allocates an address from, and/or to select any other configuration option.
An Administrator can configure the DHCP Option 77 User Class via the configuration files and the IP Phone UI.
Configuring DHCP Option 77 User Class on the IP Phone
Use the following procedures to configure DHCP Option 77 User Class on the IP Phone.

Using Options 159 and 160 on the IP Phone
In addition to DHCP options 43 and 66 already supported on the IP Phones, the phones also support DHCP Options 159
and 160. The IP Phones use the following order of precedence when deriving the configuration server parameters: 43, 160,
159, 66.
In addition, an administrator can override this order of precedence by setting a configuration parameter called, dhcp con-
fig option override (configuration files), DHCP Download Options (Aastra Web UI), or Download Options (IP Phone UI).
Setting this parameter results in the phone only using the chosen DHCP option and ignoring the other options.

Configuring a Download Precedence Using the Aastra Web UI
Use the following procedure to configure a download precedence using the Aastra Web UI.
Multiple DHCP Servers
The IP Phones can receive messages from multiple DHCP servers.
After the phone receives its first DHCP message, it listens for a specific time period, for more DHCP messages. If the first
DHCP offer contains configuration server information (Options 43, 66, 159 or 160), then the phone times out and contin-
ues using the first DHCP offer, without listening for more DHCP offers. If the first DHCP message contains no configuration
server information, the phone continues to listen for other DHCP messages. If the second DHCP message contains config-
uration server information and other conditions, the phone chooses the second DHCP message over the initial DHCP mes-
sage.
DNS Caching
The IP phones have the ability to cache DNS requests as referenced in RFC1035 and RFC2181. The phone caches DNS
lookups according to the TTL field, so that the phone only performs another lookup for an address when the TTL expires.
Aastra Web UI
1. Click on Advanced Settings->Network->Advanced Network Settings.
2. In theDHCP Download Options” field, select “Disabled” from the list of options.

Configuring LAN and PC Port Negotiation
Ethernet is the computer networking technology for local area networks (LANs). You use the LAN Port to connect to a
LAN using a twisted pair 10BASE-T cable to transmit 10BASE-T Ethernet. You use the PC Port to connect to the configura-
tion server (your PC).
There are two Ethernet ports on the rear of the IP phones: LAN Port and PC Port. Using the Aastra Web UI, you can select
the type of transmission you want these ports to use to communicate over the LAN. The IP phones support each of the
following methods of transmission:
Auto-negotiation
Half-duplex (10Mbps, 100 Mbps, or 1000Mbps [if applicable])
Full-duplex (10Mbps, 100 Mbps, or 1000Mbps [if applicable])
Auto-negotiation
Auto-negotiation is when two connected devices choose common transmission parameters. In the auto-negotiation
process, the connected devices share their speed and duplex capabilities and connect at the highest common denomi-
nator (HCD). Auto-negotiation can be used by devices that are capable of different transmission rates (such as
10Mbit/sec and 100Mbit/sec [and 1000Mbit/sec for the 6739i, 6735i, 6737i, 6865i, and 6867i]), different duplex modes
(half duplex and full duplex) and/or different standards at the same speed. You can set the LAN and PC Ports on the IP
phones to auto-negotiate during transmission.

Half-Duplex (10Mbps , 100Mbps, or 1000Mbps)
Half-duplex data transmission means that data can be transmitted in both directions on a signal carrier, but not at the
same time. For example, on a LAN using a technology that has half-duplex transmission, one device can send data on the
line and then immediately receive data on the line from the same direction in which data was just transmitted. Half-duplex
transmission implies a bidirectional line (one that can carry data in both directions). On the IP phones, you can set the half-
duplex transmission to transmit in 10Mbps or in 100Mbps. Additionally, for the 6739i, 6735i, 6737i, 6865i, and 6867i IP
phones, you can set the half-duplex transmission to transmit in 1000Mbps.
Full-Duplex (10Mbps , 100Mbps or 1000Mbps)
Full-duplex data transmission means that data can be transmitted in both directions on a signal carrier at the same time.
For example, on a LAN with a technology that has full-duplex transmission, one device can be sending data on the line
while another device is receiving data. Full-duplex transmission implies a bidirectional line (one that can move data in
both directions). On the IP phones, you can set the full-duplex transmission to transmit in 10Mbps or in 100Mbps. Addi-
tionally, for the 6739i, 6735i, 6737i, 6865i, and 6867i IP phones, you can set the full-duplex transmission to transmit in
1000Mbps.

SBC or ALG Proxy/Registrar
The phone at IP address 10.10.10.20 is configured to register with the proxy at 63.251.195.20. Because the proxy/registrar
has session border control (SBC) or application layer gateway (ALG) functionality, no additional IP phone configuration is
required.
Other Proxy/Registrars
The phone at IP address 10.10.10.30 is configured to register with the proxy at 63.251.195.30. Because this proxy/registrar
is not a Nortel proxy and has no SBC or ALG functionality, the configuration must additionally include the "sip nat ip" and
"sip nat port" settings that contain the public ip address of the NAT router and the port used for call signaling messages.
This information is embedded in protocol messages to allow the proxy/registrar to reach the IP phone on the NAT router
private network.
NAT Router Configuration
You must configure the NAT router to allow signaling or media packets containing the various UDP port values to flow
between the private and public networks that are separated by the NAT router. In the sample network, the NAT router
must not filter packets using ports 3000, 5060, 6060, 16420, and 16430.
Configuring NAT Address and Port (optional)
You can also configure a specific NAT address and port on the IP phone using the configuration files, IP Phone UI, or Aastra

SIP and TLS Source Ports for NAT Traversal
A System Administrator can configure the SIP and TLS source ports on the IP Phone. Previously, the IP phone used default
values (5060 for UDP/TCP and 5061 for TLS). The two new parameters for configuring the SIP and TLS source ports are:
sip local port
sip local tls port
You can configure the SIP and TLS source ports using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI. After configuring these
parameters, you must reboot the phone.
If NAT is disabled, the port number also shows in the VIA and Contact SIP headers.

If you enable NAT, the phone uses the NAT port number (and NAT IP address) in the Via and Contact SIP headers of SIP
messages, but still use the configured source port.
Configuring SIP and TLS Source Ports Using the Configuration Files
You use the following parameters to configure SIP and TLS ports for NAT traversal:
sip local port
sip local tls port
Note:
By default, the IP phones use symmetric UDP signaling for outgoing UDP SIP messages. When symmetric UDP is ena-
bled, the IP phone generates and listens for UDP messages using port 5060.If symmetric UDP signaling is disabled,
the phone sends from random ports but it listens on the configured SIP local port. Refer to Symmetric UDP Signaling
on page 6-25 for more information.
The IP phones also use symmetric TLS signaling for outgoing TLS SIP messages by default. When symmetric TLS is
enabled, the IP phone uses port 5061 as the persistent TLS connection source port. When symmetric TLS signaling is
disabled, the IP phone chooses a random persistent TLS connection source port for TLS messages from the TCP range
(i.e. 49152...65535) after each reboot regardless of whether the parameter “sip outbound support” is enabled or dis-
abled. Refer to Symmetric TLS Signaling on page 6-25 for more information.

STUN and TURN Protocols
The IP phones support the following audio-path NAT Traversal features:
Simple Traversal of User Datagram Protocol (UDP) through Network Address Translation (NAT) or also known as
STUN (RFC 3489)
and
Traversal Using Relay NAT or also known as TURN
Aastra Web UI

65535.
Note:
It is recommended that you avoid the conflict RTP port range in case of a UDP transport.
3. The “Local SIP TLS Port” field has a default value of 5061. Change this value if required to a value greater than 1024 and less than 65535.
Note:
It is recommended that you avoid the conflict with any TCP ports being used. For example: WebUI HTTP server on 80/tcp and HTTPS on
443/tcp.

STUN is a protocol that allows the IP phones on a network to discover the presence and types of NATs and firewalls
between them and the public Internet. It also provides the ability for the phones to determine the public IP addresses
allocated to them by the NAT. STUN works with many existing NATs, and does not require any special behavior from
them. As a result, it allows the phones to work through existing NAT infrastructures.
TURN is a protocol that governs the reception of data over a connection by a single communications device operating
behind a NAT or firewall. A TURN server relays packets from an external IP address towards the IP phone only if that
phone has previously sent a packet through the same TURN server to that particular external IP address.
SIP NAT IP configurations takes precedence over the STUN/TURN configurations. Typically, the STUN/TURN configuration
is only used for media (RTP traffic) - not for signaling. (For signaling, you need to enable “Rport” if the NAT device does
not recognize SIP. For more information about “Rport, see the section, “RPORT on page4-52 of this release note.
The STUN/TURN configuration applies globally on the phone. If you configure both STUN and TURN on the phone, it dis-
covers what type of NAT device is between the phone and the public network. If the NAT device is full cone, restricted
cone, or port restricted cone, the phone uses STUN. If the NAT device is symmetric, the phone uses TURN.
If you configure STUN only, the phone uses STUN without the NAT discovery process.
If you configure NAT only, the phone uses NAT and does not perform the NAT discovery process during startup. TURN is
compatible with all types of NAT devices.
Limitations to Using STUN and TURN
The Firewall type discovery process on the phone is limited to 20 seconds. If the discovery process fails, the STUN
server may not be configured correctly.
When making a new phone call, the phone limits obtaining the port from the STUN/TURN server to 5 seconds. If the
call does not go through in 5 seconds, the phone makes the call using the Session Description Protocol (SDP) with a
local IP:port.
An Administrator can configure a STUN and/or TURN server on the IP Phones using the configuration files or the Aastra
Web UI.
Configuring STUN and TURN Servers Using the Configuration Files
Use the following parameters to configure STUN and TURN servers in your network.
sip stun ip
sip stun port
sip turn ip
sip turn port
sip turn user
sip turn pass
Note:
STUN does not work if the NAT device is symmetric.
Note:
The NAT IP configuration parameter takes precedence over the STUN and TURN parameters.

2. In the STUN Server” field, enter the IP address and/or qualified domain name of the STUN server in your network. You can enter up to 2 val-
ues separated by a comma. The first value is the primary and the second value is the backup. For example:
10.50.103.12, stunbackup.aastra.com.
The STUN configuration is only used for media (RTP traffic) that goes through the server - not for signaling. (For signaling, you need to enable
Rport if the NAT device does not recognized SIP).
The STUN configuration applies globally to each phone.
If you configure both STUN and TURN on the phone, it discovers what type of NAT device is between the phone and the public network. If
the NAT device is full cone, restricted cone, or port restricted cone, the phone uses STUN. If the NAT device is symmetric, the phone uses
TURN. If you configure STUN only, the phone uses STUN without the NAT discovery process.
Notes:
The NAT IP configuration parameter takes precedence over the STUN parameters.
STUN does not work if the NAT device is symmetric.

Interactive Connectivity Establishment (ICE) Support
The phones now support the Interactive Connectivity Establishment (ICE) Protocol. ICE makes use of the Session Traver-
sal Utilities for NAT (STUN) protocol and its extension, Traversal Using Relay NAT (TURN).
In an ICE environment, two agent endpoints (or two phones communicating at different locations) are able to communi-
cate via the SIP Protocol by exchanging Session Description Protocol (SDP) messages. At the beginning of the ICE proc-
ess, the agents are ignorant of their own topologies. In particular, they might or might not be behind a NAT (or multiple
tiers of NATs).
ICE allows the agents to discover enough information about their topologies to potentially find one or more paths by
which they can communicate.
The ICE Protocol is automatically enabled if both STUN and TURN servers are configured in the network. The following
occurs when ICE is used on the phone:
The TURN address/port is always used as the preferred media address in initial INVITES.
Media is sent through the TURN server prior to the completion of the ICE connectivity check.
A Re-INVITE is used to adjust media (if required) after the ICE connectivity check is complete.
When ICE is enabled, call hold is performed via the send only attribute instead of changing the media address to
0.0.0.0.
The ICE Protocol supports the RTCP SDP attribute (RFC 3605)
STUN and TURN can be enabled using the Aastra Web UI or the configuration files. This automatically enables ICE.
5. In theTURN Server” field, enter the IP address and/or qualified domain name of the TURN server in your network. You can enter up to 2 val-
ues separated by a comma. The first value is the primary and the second value is the backup. For example:
10.50.103.12, turnbackup.aastra.com.
The TURN configuration is only used for media (RTP traffic) that goes through the server - not for signaling. (For signaling, you need to enable
Rport if the NAT device does not recognized SIP).
The TURN configuration applies globally to each phone.
If you configure both STUN and TURN on the phone, it discovers what type of NAT device is between the phone and the public network. If
the NAT device is full cone, restricted cone, or port restricted cone, the phone uses STUN. If the NAT device is symmetric, the phone uses
TURN. If you configure TURN only, the phone uses TURN with the NAT discovery process. TURN is compatible with all types of NAT devices
but can be costly since all traffic goes through a media relay (which can be slow, can exchange more messages, and requires the TURN server
to allocate bandwidth for calls).
Note:
The NAT IP configuration parameter takes precedence over the STUN and TURN parameters.
6. In the “TURN Port” field, enter the port number of the TURN server. You can enter up to 2 values separated by a comma. The first value is the
primary and the second value is the backup. For example:
3479,3480
Default is 3479. Range of values are 0 to 65535.
7. (Optional) In the “TURN User ID” field, enter the username that a user must enter when accessing an account on the TURN server. For exam-
ple, 0412919146.
Valid values are up to 63 alphanumeric characters.
8. (Optional) In theTURN Password” field, enter the password that a user must enter when accessing an account on the TURN server. For

HTTPS Client/Server Configuration
HTTPS is a Web protocol that encrypts and decrypts user page requests as well as the pages that are returned by the Web
server. HTTPS uses Secure Socket Layer (SSL) or Transport Layer Security (TLS) as a sublayer under its regular HTTP applica-
tion layering. SSL is a commonly-used protocol for managing the security of a message transmission on the Internet. It
uses a 40-bit key size for the RC4 stream encryption algorithm, which is considered an adequate degree of encryption for
commercial exchange. TLS is a protocol that ensures privacy between communicating applications and their users on the
Internet. When a server and client communicate, TLS ensures that no third party may eavesdrop or tamper with any mes-
sage. TLS is the successor to SSL.
When an HTTPS client opens and closes its TCP socket, the SSL software respectively handshakes upon opening and dis-
connects upon closing from the HTTPS server. The main HTTPS client functions are:
Downloading of configuration files and firmware images.
Downloading of script files based on an “HTTPS://” URL supplied by a softkey definition.
The HTTPS server provides HTTP functionality over secure connections. It coexists with the HTTP server but has its own set
of tasks. The main HTTPS server functions are:
Delivery of web page content to a browser client over a secure connection.
Execution of HTTP GET and POST requests received over a secure connection.
Using the configuration files, the IP phone UI, or the Aastra Web UI, you can configure the following regarding HTTPS:
Specify HTTPS security client method to use (TSLv1 or SSLv3)
Enable or disable HTTP to HTTPS server redirect function
HTTPS server blocking of XML HTTP POSTS to the phone
Configuring HTTPS Client and Server Settings
Use the following procedures to configure the HTTPS client and server for the IP phones.
Note:
HTTPS uses port 443 instead of HTTP port 80 in its interactions with the TCP/IP lower layer.
Note:
To enable or disable the IP phones to use the HTTPS protocol as the configuration server, see the section, “Configuring
the Configuration Server Protocol” on page4-87.

Aastra Provided Certificates
The phones come with root certificates from Verisign, GeoTrust, Thawte, Comodo, Entrust, and CyberTrust pre-loaded.
User Provided Certificates
Aastra Web UI
1. Click on Advanced Settings->Network->HTTPS Settings.
2. Select an HTTPS client method to use from the HTTPS Client Method field. Valid values are:
SSL 3.0 (default)
TSL 1.0
3. Enable HTTP to HTTPS redirect by checking the HTTPS Server - Redirect HTTP to HTTPS field check box. (Disable this field by unchecking
the check box). Default is disabled.
4. Enable the blocking of XML HTTP POSTs by the HTTPS server by checking the HTTPS Server - Block XML HTTP POSTs field check box. (Dis-
able this field by unchecking the check box). Default is disabled.
5. Click Save Settings to save your settings.
Note:
The IP Phones do not support the transmission of HTTPS client certificates for validation by HTTPS servers. If the IP
Phone attempts to download files from an HTTPS server that requires a client certificate during a file download trans-
action, a “No Certificate” error will occur and be logged on the IP Phone (viewable under the Options->Phone Status
->Error Messages menu in the IP Phone UI or on the Troubleshooting page of the respective IP Phones Web UI).

The administrator has the option to upload their own certificates onto the phone. The phone downloads these certificates
in a file of .PEM format during boot time after configuration downloads. The user-provided certificates are saved on the
phone between firmware upgrades but are deleted during a factory default. The download of the user-provided certifi-
cates are based on a filename specified in the configuration parameter, https user certificates (Trusted Certificates
Filename in the Aastra Web UI; user-provided certificates are not configurable via the IP Phone UI).
Certificate Validation
Certificate validation is enabled by default. Validation occurs by checking that the certificates are well formed and signed
by one of the certificates in the trusted certificate set. It then checks the expiration date on the certificate, and finally, com-
pares the name in the certificate with the address for which it was connected.
If any of these validation steps fail, the connection is rejected. Certificate validation is controlled by three parameters
which you can configure via the configuration files, the IP Phone UI, or the Aastra Web UI:
https validate certificates - Enables/disables validation.
https validate hostname - Enables/disables the checking of the certificate commonName against the server name.
https validate expires - Enables/disables the checking of the expiration date on the certificate.
User Interface
Certificate Rejection
When the phone rejects a certificate, it displays, "Bad Certificate" on the LCD.
Note:
Certificates that are signed by providers other than Verisign, GeoTrust or Thawte do not verify on the phone by default.
The user can overcome this by adding the root certificate of their certificate provider to the use-provided certificate
.PEM file.

Virtual LAN (optional)
Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) is a feature on the IP phone that allows for multiple logical Ethernet interfaces to send
outgoing RTP packets over a single physical Ethernet as described in IEEE Std 802.3. On the IP phone, you configure a
VLAN ID that associates with the physical Ethernet port.
By configuring specific VLAN parameters, the IP phones have the capability of adding and removing tags, and processing
the ID and priority information contained within the tag.
VLAN on the IP phones is disabled by default. When you enable VLAN, the IP phone provides defaults for all VLAN param-
eters. If you choose to change these parameters, you can configure them using the configuration files, the IP Phone UI, or
the Aastra Web UI.
The following sections describe the VLAN features you can configure on the IP phones.
Type of Service (ToS), Quality of Service (QoS), and DiffServ QoS
ToS is an octet as a field in the standard IP header. It is used to classify the traffic of the different QoSs.
QoS provides service differentiation between IP packets in the network. This service differentiation is noticeable during
periods of network congestion (for example, in case of contention for resources) and results in different levels of network
performance.
Port 0 is the Ethernet LAN Port connected to the network. Port 1 is the Ethernet PC Port used for passthrough to a PC.
Differentiated Service (DiffServ) QoS is class-based where some classes of traffic receive preferential handling over other
traffic classes.
The Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) value is stored in the first six bits of the ToS field. Each DSCP specifies a par-
ticular per-hop behavior that is applied to a packet.
The following parameters allow an administrator to configure ToS, QoS, and DiffServ QoS for VLAN:
5. If you require the download of User-provided certificates in a .PEM formatted file, enter the file name in the format <filename.pem> in the
Trusted Certificates Filename” field. For example:
trustedCerts.pem
This parameter specifies a file name for a .PEM file located on the configuration server. This file contains the User-provided certificates in
PEM format. These certificates are used to validate peer certificates.
Notes:
You must disable the “Validate Certificates” field in order for the phone to accept the User-provided certificates.
This parameter requires you restart the phone in order for it to take affect.
6. Click Save Settings to save your changes.
7. If you entered a filename in the “Trusted Certificates Filename” field, click on Operation->Reset, and restart the phone for the changes
to take affect.
Note:
All latest VLAN functionality is backwards compatible with IP Phone Releases 1.3 and 1.3.1.

DSCP Range/VLAN Priority Mapping
DSCP bits in the ToS field of the IP header are set for RTP, RTCP, and SIP packets using either the default values or the val-
ues configured via the "tos sip", "tos rtp", and " tos rtcp" parameters.
When the VLAN global configuration parameter, "tagging enabled" is set to 1, VLAN priority for IP packets is mapped to
the DSCP value instead of a single priority for all packets. An administrator can also configure VLAN priority for non-IP
packets using the "priority non-ip" parameter.
Since the default DSCP settings for SIP, RTP, and RTCP are 26, 46, and 46 respectively, this results in corresponding default
VLAN priorities of 3 for SIP, 5 for RTP, and 5 for RTCP (based on the settings in the table “DSCP Range/VLAN Priority Map-
ping on page4-42).
You can change the default parameters by modifying just the DSCP values, just the VLAN priority values, or by modifying
all values.
LAN Port
vlan id VLAN ID
tos priority map SIP Priority
tos priority map RTP Priority
tos priority map RTCP Priority
PC Port

Notes:
In order for the software to successfully maintain connectivity with a network using VLAN functionality, the IP phone
reboots if you modify the "tagging enabled" (VLAN Enable in the Web UI), "vlan id", or "vlan id port 1" parameters.
Setting the LAN Port VLAN ID (vlan id) to 4095 and PC Port VLAN ID (vlan id port 1) to any ID from 1 to 4094 will allow
frames from the PC Port (containing a VLAN ID) to be untagged before being forwarded to the LAN Port and frames
from the LAN Port (without a VLAN ID) to be tagged with the configured VLAN ID before being forwarded to the PC
Port. For configuring this feature via the Phone UI and the Aastra Web UI, see “Configuring VLAN (optional)” on
page4-45. For configuring this feature using the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section, “Virtual Local Area
Network (VLAN) Settings on page A-34.
Alternatively setting the LAN Port VLAN ID (vlan id) to any ID from 1 to 4094 and PC Port VLAN ID (vlan id port 1) to
4095 will allow frames from the LAN Port (containing a VLAN ID) to be untagged before being forwarded to the PC
Port and frames from the PC Port (without a VLAN ID) to be tagged with the configured VLAN ID before being for-
warded to the LAN Port. For configuring this feature via the Phone UI and the Aastra Web UI, see “Configuring VLAN
(optional)” on page4-45. For configuring this feature using the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section, “Vir-
tual Local Area Network (VLAN) Settings” on page A-34.

Note:
Setting the LAN Port VLAN ID to 4095 and PC Port VLAN ID to any ID from 1 to 4094 will allow frames from the PC port (containing a VLAN
ID) to be untagged before being forwarded to the LAN port and frames from the LAN port (without a VLAN ID) to be tagged with the con-
figured VLAN ID before being forwarded to the PC port.
Example:
You enable tagging on the phone port as normal but set the LAN Port VLAN ID to 4095 and the PC Port VLAN ID to any ID from 1 to 4094. The
following example sets the PC port to be on VLAN 3 but the LAN port is configured as untagged.

RPORT
The Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) operates over UDP and TCP. When used with UDP, responses to requests are returned
to the source address from which the request came, and returned to the port written into the topmost “Via” header of
the request. However, this behavior is not desirable when the client is behind a Network Address Translation (NAT) or
firewall.
A parameter created for the “Via” header called “Rport” in RFC 3581, allows a client to request that the server send the
response back to the source IP address and the port from which the request came.
When you enable “Rport, the phone always uses symmetric signaling (listens on the port used for sending requests.)
An Administrator can configure “Rport” using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.
To set VLAN ID and priority for the PC Port (Port 1):
7. Enter a VLAN ID value from 1 to 4095 in the VLAN ID field. Default is 4095.
Note:
Setting the PC Port VLAN ID to 4095 and LAN Port VLAN ID to any ID from 1 to 4094 will allow frames from the LAN port (containing a VLAN
ID) to be untagged before being forwarded to the PC port and frames from the PC port (without a VLAN ID) to be tagged with the configured
VLAN ID before being forwarded to the LAN port.
Example:
You enable tagging on the phone port as normal but set the PC Port VLAN ID to 4095 and the LAN Port VLAN ID to any ID from 1 to 4094. The
following example sets the LAN port to be on VLAN 3 but the PC port is configured as untagged.
8. Select a VLAN priority value from 0 to 7 for the PC Port in the Priority field. Default is 0.
9. Click Save Settings to save your settings.
Note:
Configuring the Rport parameter is recommended for clients behind a Network Address Translation (NAT) or firewall
since this parameter allows a client to request that the server send the response back to the source IP address and the
port from which the request came.

Global SIP Settings
Description
The IP phone uses the information in the Global Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) settings to register at the IP PBX.
The IP phone configuration defines network and user account parameters that apply globally to all SIP lines. Since not all
SIP lines are necessarily hosted using the same IP-PBX/server or user account, additional sets of per-line parameters can
also be defined for network and user account.
You configure and modify these parameters and associated values using the configuration files, the IP phone UI, or the
Aastra Web UI. The Aastra Web UI and configuration file methods configure global and per-line SIP settings on the IP
phone. The IP phone UI configures global SIP settings only.
On the IP Phones, you can configure Basic and Advanced SIP Settings. The Basic SIP Settings include authentication and
network settings. The Advanced SIP Settings include other features you can configure on the IP Phone.
Reference
For more information about Basic SIP Settings (for authentication and network), see “Basic SIP Settings on page4-55.
For more information about Advanced SIP Settings, see Advanced SIP Settings (optional)” on page4-69.
Basic SIP Settings
Specific parameters are configurable on a global and per-line basis. You can also configure specific parameters using the IP
Phone UI, the Aastra Web UI, or the configuration files. If you have a proxy server or have a SIP registrar present at a differ-
ent location than the PBX server, the SIP parameters may need to be changed.
The IP phones allow you to define different SIP lines with the same account information (i.e., same user name) but with dif-
ferent registrar and proxy IP addresses. This feature works with Registration, Subscription, and Notify processing. This fea-
ture also works with the following types of calls: incoming, outgoing, Broadsoft Shared Call Appearance (SCA), Bridged
Line Appearance (BLA), conference, transfer, blind transfer.
The following tables identify the SIP global and per-line, authentication and network parameters on the IP phones.

Reference
For more information about centralized conferencing, see Chapter 5, the section, “Centralized Conferencing (for Sylantro
and Broadsoft Servers)” on page5-266.
Specific sets of SIP parameters are inter-dependent with each other. To prevent conflicting parameter values from being
applied, per-line values always take precedence over the corresponding set of global values.
For example, if a parameter value is configured for one of the per-line sets, all parameters from that set are applied and all
parameters from the corresponding global section are ignored, even if some of the parameters within the global set are
not defined in the per-line set.

SIP Password Masking
The “mask sip password” configuration parameter can be used to mask a user’s SIP account password in the server.cfg
and local.cfg files (downloaded from the IP phone’s Web UI troubleshooting page for debug purposes). The parameter is
disabled by default.
Configuring SIP Password Masking
Use the following procedure to configure SIP password masking using the configuration files.
SIP Precedence Example
The following example shows the SIP proxy feature and example schema for storage and parsing of the SIP configuration
parameters.
The following SIP configuration is assumed:
# SIP network block
sip proxy ip: 10.30.11.154
sip proxy port: 5060
sip registrar ip: 10.44.122.37
sip registrar port: 4020
sip line3 proxy ip: siparator.vonage.com
sip line3 proxy port: 0
Line3 specifies per-line values for proxy IP address and proxy port, so the phone uses those parameter values for SIP calls
made on that line. However, because those parameters are part of the SIP network block, the phone does not apply any
of the global SIP network block parameters. So even though the global parameters configure a SIP registrar, Line3 on the
phone ignores all global network block parameters. Since line3 does not contain a per-line SIP registrar entry, the phone
does not use a registrar for that line.
Backup Proxy/Registrar Support
The IP phones support a backup SIP proxy and backup SIP registrar feature. If the primary server is unavailable, the
phone automatically switches to the backup server allowing the user's phone to remain in service.
How it Works
All SIP registration messages are sent to the primary registrar first. If the server is unavailable, then a new registration
request is sent to the backup registrar. This also applies to registration renewal messages, which try the primary server
before the backup.
Similarly, any outgoing calls attempt to use the primary proxy first, then the backup if necessary. In addition, subscrip-
tions for BLF, BLA, and explicit MWI can also use the backup proxy when the primary fails. Outgoing calls and the previ-
ously mentioned subscriptions behave the same as registrations, where the primary proxy is tried before the backup.
You can configure the backup SIP proxy on a global or per-line basis via the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.
Configuration Files
For specific parameters you can set in the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section, “SIP Basic, Global Settings” on pageA-61.
Note:
Global SIP parameters apply to all lines unless overridden by a per-line configuration. Per-line settings are configurable
for lines 1 through 7.
Global SIP Settings
41-001343-02 REV04 – 05.2014 4-59
SIP Outbound Support
The IP Phones support draft-ietf-sip-outbound-15. That specification describes how a SIP User Agent (UA) behind a fire-
wall, reuses an existing connection (usually the REGISTER outbound connection) for the inbound request if the proxy sup-
ports it. The UA uses keep-alive packets to monitor the connection status.
An Administrator can enable or disable this feature using the following parameter in the configuration files:
sip outbound support
Enabling/Disabling SIP Outbound Draft 15 Support
Use the following procedure to enable/disable SIP outbound Draft 15 support.
Backup Outbound Proxy and Failover Support
The IP phones support a backup outbound proxy and failover. This feature provides the following:
The ability to specify a backup outbound proxy.
The ability to support SIP outbound on all connection types.
The ability to configure the SIP outbound keep alive timer.
The ability to reestablish failed outbound connections in the background.
The ability to support the DNS Cache Time-to-Live (TTL) requirements
Using this feature depends on the SIP network settings on your phone. The following table identifies network configura-
tion scenarios, and the method by which this specific feature works in each scenario.
Note:
If the Global SIP parameter “Persistent TLS” is set on the phone, then only one TLS persistent connection can be estab-
lished since the phone uses the local port 5061 for connection. If the Global SIP parameter “TLS” is set on the phone,
more than one connection can be setup since the phone uses a random local port for connection.
Configuration Files
For the specific parameter you can set in the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section, “SIP Outbound Support on pageA-60.
IF THEN
SIP Outbound Disabled and
backup proxy and backup registrar
configured, All invite, register, and subscribe requests attempt to use the primary proxy/registrar
first
If the primary registrar fails, the phone registers to the backup proxy.
If the backup proxy fails, the phone registers using the Address of Record (AOR) of the
backup proxy, and moves all subscriptions to the backup proxy.
When the primary registrar comes back online, the phone registers to it using the cur-
rently active AOR.
When the primary proxy comes back online the phone registers with the primary AOR
to the currently active registrar and moves all subscriptions to the primary proxy.
backup proxy, backup registrar, and backup outbound
proxy configured, All invite, register, and subscribe requests attempt to use the primary proxy/registrar
first.
If any connection fails, the phone registers the backup AOR on the backup registrar. It
moves all subscriptions to the backup proxy.
When the primary is functional again, registration and subscriptions are moved back to
the primary proxy/registrar.
backup outbound proxy configured only, All invite, register and subscribe requests are sent through the primary outbound
proxy first.
If the primary proxy fails, the phone performs registration and subscriptions through
the backup outbound proxy.
When the primary proxy comes back online, the registrations and subscriptions are
performed again through the primary outbound proxy.

Configuring a Backup Outbound Proxy
To configure this feature an Administrator can set the following parameters in the configuration files or the Aastra Web
UI:
SIP Outbound Enabled and
backup proxy and backup registrar configured, Establishes flow to the primary proxy and registrar.
If the flow to the primary registrar fails, the phone:
establishes flow to the backup registrar.
registers to the backup registrar.
attempts to reestablish flow to the primary registrar in the background.
When the primary registrar comes back up, the phone unregisters from the backup
and registers with the primary.
If the flow to the primary proxy fails, the phone:
establishes flow to the backup proxy.
registers the new AOR with the active registrar.
moves subscriptions to the backup proxy.
attempts to reestablish the flow to the primary proxy in the background.
When the flow to the primary proxy is reestablished, the phone:
registers the primary AOR to the active registrar.
moves subscriptions to the primary proxy.
unregisters/unsubscribes from the backup proxy/registrar.
backup proxy, backup registrar, and backup outbound
proxy configured,
Note:
This configuration assumes that the outbound proxy is
maintaining its own outbound connections to the
proxy/registrar.
Establishes a flow to the primary outbound proxy.
If the flow fails, the phone:
establishes the flow to the backup proxy.
registers the backup AOR to the backup registrar.
moves subscriptions to the backup proxy.
attempts to reestablish connection to the primary outbound proxy in the back-
ground.
When the flow to the primary proxy is reestablished, the phone:
registers the primary AOR to the primary registrar.
moves the subscriptions to the primary proxy.
unregisters/unsubscribes from the backup proxy/registrar.
backup outbound proxy configured only, Establishes a flow to the primary outbound proxy.
If the flow fails, the phone:
establishes the flow to the backup proxy.
registers the backup AOR to the backup registrar.
moves subscriptions to the backup proxy.

Limitations
The following are limitations with this feature:
Keep-alive mechanisms shall be limited to IPv4 only.
Per M5T, RFC5686 is not fully supported although the draft upon which it was based (draft-ietf-sip-outbound-15) is sup-
ported.
SIP Server (SRV) Lookup
The SIP SRV Lookup feature allows you to configure the IP phone to issue a DNS query to retrieve records pertaining to a
SIP proxy, a SIP registrar, or a SIP outbound proxy.
The IP phone issues a DNS query for an SRV record when the IP address of the server is FQDN and the corresponding port
is 0.
For example, if the phone is configured with sip proxy ip of "ana.aastra.com", and sip proxy port of "0", the SRV lookup
may return multiple servers, based on the priorities if one is selected as primary and others are selected as secondary.
However, if the IP address is an FQDN and the corresponding server port is non-zero, then the phone issues a DNS "A"
Name Query to resolve the FQDN into dot notation form.
If the IP address is a valid dot notation and the port is zero, then a default port 5060 is used.
You can configure SRV lookup using the configuration files (aastra.cfg and <mac>.cfg) only. The parameters to use are:
sip proxy ip
sip proxy port
Contact Header Matching
When sending SIP packets, the IP Phones observe the Contact header by matching the username, domain name, port, and
transport as referenced in SIP RFC 3261.This is called “strict SIP Contact header matching.” However, in specific networks
(such as behind some SOHO routers), the phone registers with its private address in the Contact, but when the response is
sent back, the router maintains the public side IP address in the Contact header. This causes a non-matching Contact
header and the phone does not accept the new registration expiry timer.
You can set the parameter, “sip contact matching, which allows the Administrator to specify the method used by the
phone to match the Contact Header. Previously by default, when sending SIP packets, the IP phones observed the contact
header by doing a full URI matching of username, domain, phone IP and port name, and transport (value=’0’). Now the
default value for the “sip contact matching” parameter is to match the username only (value=’2’). This parameter is avail-
able via the configuration files only.
Enabling/Disabling the “Contact Header Matching” Feature
Use the following procedure to enable/disable the “Contact Header Matching” feature.
Configuration Files
For the specific parameter you can set in the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section, “Backup Outbound Proxy (Global Settings)” on pageA-
68 and “Backup Outbound Proxy (Per-line Settings)” on pageA-77.

The “sip subscription timeout retry timer” and “sip subscription failed retry timer” are only configurable through
the configuration files. The “sip subscription timeout retry timer” parameter can be used to control how long the
phone delays then retries a subscription when a SUBSCRIBE request is responded with a 408 (timeout) or 503 (service
unavailable) error code. The “sip subscription failed retry timer” parameter can be used to control how long the phone
delays then retries a subscription when a SUBSCRIBE request is responded with error codes other than 408 or 503.
If any one of the above parameters are configured with a valid setting, the default retry times for all event packages will
be overwritten with the new setting. If the parameters are not configured or contains a invalid setting, the default retry
timers for all event packages will be retained. Both parameters are disabled by default.

17. In the "Registration Renewal Timer" field, enter the threshold value, in seconds, prior to expiration, that the phone renews registrations.
The phone will automatically send registration renewals half-way through the registration period, unless half-way is more than the threshold
value.
For example, if the threshold value is set to 60 seconds and if the registration period is 600 seconds, the renewal REGISTER message will be
sent 60 seconds prior to the expiration, as half-way (600/2) > 60. If the registration period was 100 seconds, then the renewal would be sent
at the half-way point as (100/2) < 60.
Valid values are 0 to 2147483647. Default is 15.
18. The “BLF Subscription Period” field is enabled by default with a value of 3600 seconds.
This feature sets the duration, in seconds, before the BLF subscription times out. The phone re-subscribes to the BLF subscription service
before the defined subscription period ends.
Note:
This parameter is not applicable to BLF/List subscriptions.

20. The “BLA Subscription Period” field is enabled by default with a value of 300 seconds.
This feature sets the amount of time, in seconds, that the phone waits to receive a BLA subscribe message from the server. If you specify zero
(0), the phone uses the value specified for the BLA expiration in the subscribe message received from the server. If no value is specified, the
phone uses the default value of 300 seconds.
For information about setting the “BLA Subscription Period”, see Chapter 5, the section, “BLA Subscription Period” on page5-170.
21. (For Broadsoft Servers) The “Blacklist Duration” field is enabled by default with a value of 300 seconds (5 minutes). Valid values are 0 to
9999999.
This feature specifies the length of time, in seconds, that a failed server remains on the server blacklist. The IP phone avoids sending a SIP
message to a failed server (if another server is available) for this amount of time.
Note:
The value of “0” disables the blacklist feature.
For information about setting the “Blacklist Duration, see Chapter 6, the section, “Blacklist Duration on page6-13.

Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP) Settings
Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP) is used as the bearer path for voice packets sent over the IP network. Information in
the RTP header tells the receiver how to reconstruct the data and describes how the bit streams are packetized (i.e.
which codec is in use). Real-time Transport Control Protocol (RTCP) allows endpoints to monitor packet delivery, detect
and compensate for any packet loss in the network. Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) and H.323 both use RTP and RTCP for
the media stream, with User Datagram Protocol (UDP) as the transport layer encapsulation protocol.
You can set the following parameters for RTP on the IP Phones:
RTP Port
RTP is described in RFC1889. The UDP port used for RTP streams is traditionally an even-numbered port, and the RTCP
control is on the next port up. A phone call therefore uses one pair of ports for each media stream.
The RTP port is assigned to the first line on the phone, and is then incremented for each subsequent line available within
the phone to provided each line a unique RTP port for its own use.
On the IP phone, the initial port used as the starting point for RTP/RTCP port allocation can be configured using "RTP
Port Base". The default RTP base port on the IP phones is 3000.
24. Enable the "XML SIP Notify" field by checking the check box.
(Disable this field by unchecking the check box. Default is disabled).
Enabling this parameter allows the phone to accept or reject an aastra-xml SIP NOTIFY message.
Note:
To ensure the SIP NOTIFY is coming from a trusted source, it is recommended that you enable the Whitelist feature (Whitelist Proxy param-
eter) on the IP phone. If enabled, and the phone receives a SIP NOTIFY from a server that is NOT on the whitelist (i.e. untrusted server), the
phone rejects the message.
For information about setting this feature, see Chapter 5, the section, “XML SIP Notify Events” on page5-256.
25. Click Save Settings to save your changes.
Note:
If RFC2833 relay of DTMF tones is configured, it is sent on the same port as the RTP voice packets. The phones support
decoding and playing out DTMF tones sent in SIP INFO requests. The following DTMF tones are supported:
Support signals 0-9, #, *
Support durations up to 5 seconds

For example, if the RTP base port value is 5000, the first voice patch sends RTP on port 5000 and RTCP on port 5001. Addi-
tional calls would then use ports 5002, 5003, etc.
You can configure the RTP port on a global-basis only, using the configuration files, the IP Phone UI, or the Aastra Web UI.
Basic Codecs (G.711 u-Law, G.711 a-Law, G.729)
CODEC is an acronym for COmpress-DECompress. It consists of a set of instructions that together implement one or more
algorithms. In the case of IP telephony, these algorithms are used to compress the sampled speech data, to decrease the
content's file size and bit-rate (the amount of network bandwidth in kilobits per second) required to transfer the audio.
With smaller file sizes and lower bit rates, the network equipment can store and stream digital media content over a net-
work more easily.
Aastra IP phones support the International Telecommunications Union (ITU) transmission standards for the following
CODECs:
Waveform CODECs: G.711 pulse code modulation (PCM) with a-Law or u-Law companding
Parametric CODEC: G.729a conjugate structure - algebraic code excited linear prediction (CS_ACELP)
All codecs have a sampling rate of 8,000 samples per second, and operate in the 300 Hz to 3,700 Hz audio range. The fol-
lowing table lists the default settings for bit rate, algorithm, packetization time, and silence suppression for each codec,
based on a minimum packet size.
Default Codec Settings
You can enable the IP phones to use a default "basic" codec set, which consists of the set of codecs and packet sizes shown
above;
or
you can configure a custom set of codecs and attributes instead of using the defaults (see “Customized Codec Preference
List” below).
AMR and AMR-WB (G722.2) Codecs (Licensed Feature for 6735i , 6737i, 6863i, 6865i, and 6867i Only)
Administrators can configure Adaptive Multi-Rate (AMR) and Adaptive Multi-Rate Wideband (AMR -WB) codecs on the
6735i, 6737i, 6863i, 6865i, and 6867i IP phones. AMR/AMR-WB codecs provide improved speech quality during calls due to
wider speech bandwidth, and cover both real-time transfers through Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP) and non-real-time
transfers through stored files. AMR supports eight narrowband speech encoding modes (0-7) with bit-rates ranging from
4.75 to 12.2 kilobits per second (kbps). AMR-WB supports nine wideband speech encoding modes (0-8), with bit-rates
ranging from 6.60 to 23.85 kbps.
Administrators can configure AMR/AMR-WB on the IP phones in the Customized Codec Preference List on the Web UI or
in the configuration files using the existing “sip customized codec” parameter.

G.711 a-law 64 Kb/s PCM 30 ms enabled
G.711 u-law 64 Kb/s PCM 30 ms enabled
G.729a 8 Kb/s CS-ACELP 30 ms enabled
Note:
The basic and custom codec parameters apply to all calls, and are configured on a global-basis only using the config-
uration files or the Aastra Web UI.
Note:
AMR/AMR-WB codecs is a licensed feature on the SIP IP phones. To confirm that the license is active, Administrators can
view the license through the phone's Web UI on the Licensing Status page. AMR/AMR-WB should be listed if the fea-
ture is available to be used. If Administrators configure AMR/AMR-WB when there is no license, the codec will be
ignored and not negotiated.

sip amr codec payload format, which specifies the payload format for AMR/AMR-WB. AMR/AMR-WB can operate in
either bandwidth-efficient mode (0) or in octet-aligned mode (1), depending on the value configured. Administrators
can also disable the octet-align mode and still send the octet-align:0 header in the Session Description Protocol (SDP) by
using value (2) for the parameter. By default, the IP phones utilize bandwidth-efficient mode.
Administrators can also specify the list of mode sets that the IP phones support and state the preferred mode to use if
multiple modes are supported by both sides, using the “sip amr codec mode set” and/or the “sip amr wb codec mode
set” parameters. If no modes are defined then all codec modes are allowed for the payload type.
The following tables list the AMR/AMR-WB codec modes and corresponding bit-rates.

Customized Codec Preference List
You can also configure the IP phones to use preferred codecs. To do this, you must enter the payload value (payload), the
packetization time in milliseconds (ptime), and enable or disable silence suppression (silsupp).
Payload is the codec type to be used. This represents the data format carried within the RTP packets to the end user at the
destination. The default payload setting is to allow all codecs. You can set payload to use only basic codecs (G.711 u-Law,
G.711 a-Law, G.729), and/or Adaptive Multi-Rate (AMR) and Adaptive Multi-Rate Wideband (AMR -WB) (G.722.2) codecs (for
the 6735i, 6737i, 6863i, 6865i, and 6867i IP phones if a license is available), or select from up to 14 codecs for the phones
AND customize a codec preference list of up to 10 codecs. In the Aastra Web UI, codecs 2 through 10 can be set to “None
if required (no codecs).
Ptime (packetization time) is a measurement of the duration of PCM data within each RTP packet sent to the destination,
and hence defines how much network bandwidth is used for transfer of the RTP stream. You enter the ptime values for the
customized codec list in milliseconds. (See table below).
Silsupp is used to enable or disable silence suppression. Voice Activity Detection (VAD) on the IP phones is used to deter-
mine whether each individual packet contains useful speech data. Enabling silsupp results in decreased network band-
width, by avoiding the transmission of RTP packets for any frame where no voice energy was detected by the VAD.
You must enter the values for this feature in list form as shown in the following example:
payload=8;ptime=10;silsupp=on,payload=0;ptime=10;silsupp=off
The valid values for creating a codec preference list are as follows (in numerical order of payload).
Note:
In the Aastra Web UI:
Setting Codec 1 to “All” ignores the packetization interval (ptime). The packetization interval setting defaults to 30,
which is the default for all codecs.
Setting Codec 1 to “All” automatically sets all other codec preference fields 2 through 10 to “None.
Setting Codec 1 to “Basic” and all other codec preferences in 2 through 10 to “None”, forces the phone to use only the
basic codecs as in previous releases (G.711 u-law, G.711 a-law, and G.729). If you select an additional codec to use in
the codec preferences 2 through 10 fields, those codecs are added to the list of Basic codecs for the phone to use.

You can specify a customized codec preference list on a global-basis using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.
Out-of-Band DTMF and DTMF Method
The IP phones support out-of-band Dual-Tone Multifrequency (DTMF) mode as referenced in RFC2833. In the Aastra Web
UI, you can enable or disable this feature as required. The "out-of-band DTMF" is enabled by default. In out-of-band mode,
the DTMF audio is automatically clamped (muted) and DTMF digits are not sent in the RTP packets. You can configure out-
of-band DTMF on a global-basis using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.
An additional feature on the IP phone allows you to select the DTMF method that the phone uses to send DTMF digits
from the IP phone via INFO messages. You can set the DTMF method as Real-Time Transport Protocol (RTP), SIP INFO, or
both. You can configure the DTMF method on a global or per-line basis using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.
The matrix below details DTMF behavior when the out-of-band DTMF and DTMF method settings are configured in vari-
ous scenarios:
RTP Encryption
The IP Phones include support for Secure Real-time Transfer Protocol (SRTP), using Session Description Protocol Security
(SDES) key negotiation, for encryption and authentication of RTP/RTCP messages sent and received by the Aastra IP
phones on your network.
As administrator, you specify the global SRTP setting for all lines on the IP phone. You can choose among three levels of
SRTP encryption, as follows:
SRTP Disabled (default): IP phone generates and receives non-secured RTP calls. If the IP phone gets called from SRTP
enabled phone, it ignores SRTP tries to answer the call using RTP. If the receiving phone has SRTP only enabled, the call
fails; however, if it has SRTP preferred enabled, it will accept RTP call.
SRTP Preferred: IP phone generates RTP secured calls, and accepts both secured and non-secured RTP calls. If the
receiving phone is not SRTP enabled, it sends non-secured RTP calls instead.
SRTP Only: IP phone generates and accepts RTP secured calls only; all other calls are rejected (fail).
You can override the global setting as necessary, configuring SRTP support on a per-line basis. This allows IP phone users
to have both secured and unsecured lines operating on the same phone.

When an active call is using SRTP (i.e. when an SRTP enabled IP phone initiates a call and the receiving phone is also SRTP
enabled) and the transport protocol is set to TLS, the IP Phone UI displays a “lock” icon, indicating that the call is secure.
If one of the phones does not support SRTP and/or TLS is not enabled, the IP Phone UIs do not display the lock icon, indi-
cating that the call may not be secure.
You can configure SRTP on a global or per-line basis using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.
Silence Suppression
In IP telephony, silence on a line (lack of voice) uses up bandwidth when sending voice over a packet-switched system.
Silence suppression is encoding that starts and stops the times of silence in order to eliminate that wasted bandwidth.
Silence suppression is enabled by default on the IP phones. The phone negotiates whether or not to use silence suppres-
sion. Disabling this feature forces the phone to ignore any negotiated value.
You can configure silence suppression on a global-basis using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.
Option to Include/Remove Silence Suppression Attribute from SDP Offer
The parameter sip remove silence suppression offer is available allowing administrators the ability to control whether
or not the silence suppression attribute should be included in the Session Description Protocol (SDP) offer.
If enabled (1), the silence suppression attribute will be removed from the SDP offer. If disabled (0), the attribute will not
be removed from the SDP offer. This parameter is disabled by default and requires a reboot if the value of the parameter
has changed. You can configure this parameter using the configuration files only.
Configuring RTP Features
Use the following procedures to configure the RTP features on the IP phone.
Note:
If you enable SRTP, then you should also enable Transport Layer Security (TLS). This prevents capture of the key used for
SRTP encryption. To enable TLS, set the Transport Protocol parameter (located on the Global SIP Settings menu) to
TLS.

RTCP Summary Reports
The IP phones include the capability of enabling/disabling the generation of RTCP summary reports using the SIP vq-
rtcpxr event package. These RTCP summary reports include voice quality statistics according to draft-ietf-sipping-rtcp-
summary-05 specifications including packet loss, jitter, and delay statistics, as well as call quality scores. When this fea-
ture is enabled, an RTCP summary report is sent at the end of each call via a PUBLISH message to the configuration
server.
In addition to enabling/disabling the generation of these reports, you must specify the hostname and port of the entity,
known as the collector, receiving the reports. Similar to the other IP Phone SIP account parameters, the RTCP summary
report parameters can be set on a global or a per-line basis using the configuration files only.
The RTCP summary report parameters are:
sip rtcp summary reports
sip LineN rtcp summary reports
sip rtcp summary report collector
sip LineN rtcp summary report collector
sip rtcp summary report collector port
sip LineN rtcp summary report collector port
Limitations
The following is a limitation when enabling RTCP summary reports on the phone:
The call must be at least 5 seconds long in order to generate the RTCP extended reports.
Configuring RTCP Summary Reports
Use the following procedure to configure RTCP summary reports.
Autodial Settings
The IP phones include a feature called “Autodial”. When you configure Autodial on an IP phone, the phone automatically
dials a pre-configured number whenever it is off-hook. Depending on the configuration you specify, the Autodial func-
tions as either a “hotline”, o r a s a warmline,” as follows:
Hotline (default): The IP phone immediately dials a preconfigured number when you lift the handset.
Warmline: The IP phone waits for a specified amount of time after you lift the handset before dialing a pre-configured
number. If you do not dial a number within the time allotted, then the IP phone begins to dial the number.
By default, the Autodial feature functions as a hotline. If you want Autodial to function as a warmline, you can use the
Autodial “time-out” parameter to specify the length of time (in seconds) the IP phone waits before dialing a pre-config-
ured number.
Note:
The transport protocol used for RTCP summary reports is also configurable. Refer to Configurable Transport Protocol
for SIP Services and RTCP Summary Reports on page 6-40 for more information.

Defining an Emergency Dial Plan
Public telephone networks in countries around the world have a single emergency telephone number (emergency serv-
ices number), that allows a caller to contact local emergency services for assistance when required. The emergency tele-
phone number may differ from country to country. It is typically a three-digit number so that it can be easily remem-
bered and dialed quickly. Some countries have a different emergency number for each of the different emergency serv-
ices.
You can specify the digits to dial on the IP phone for contacting emergency services. Once you specify the emergency
number(s) on the phone, you can dial those numbers directly on the dial pad when required and the phone automati-
cally dials to those emergency services.
The following table describes the default emergency numbers on the IP phones.
Emergency Dial Plan and Pattern Matching
The IP Phones support emergency dialing using pattern matching and prepend dial plan functionality.
There are two ways to dial a number on the phone:
dialing digit-by-digit (i.e., select line and dial)
dialing by string (i.e., pre-dial then go off-hook)
When a user dials digit-by-digit, the phone adds every digit to a dialed string and checks against the dial plan. If the
phone is not locked, it checks against the regular dial plan. If the phone is locked, it checks against the emergency dial
plan.
When a user dials by string, (pre-dial, speed-dial, etc., and then goes off-hook), and the phone is not locked, it checks to
see if the number matches the emergency dial plan. If it doesn’t match, it blocks the call from going through. If the
phone is locked, and the number matches the emergency dial plan it allows the call to go through.
Adding a prepend to a dial plan also works with both dialing digit-by-digit and dialing by string.
Limitation
The following is a limitation for emergency dial plans with pattern matching:
Secondary dial tone is not supported.
You can set the emergency dial plan via the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.
Configuring an Emergency Dial Plan
Use the following procedures to specify the numbers to use on your phone for dialing emergency services in your area.
Note:
Contact your local phone service provider for available emergency numbers in your area.
Emergency Number Description
911 A United States emergency number
999 A United Kingdom emergency number
112 An international emergency telephone number for GSM mobile phone networks.
In all European Union countries it is also the emergency telephone number for both mobile and fixed-line tele-
phones.
110 A police and/or fire emergency number in Asia, Europe, Middle East, and South America.

Configurable Emergency Call Behavior
Administrators have the option of changing the default behavior of the IP phones when an emergency call (i.e. a call
made to an emergency number matching one of the values defined in the “emergency dial plan” parameter) is placed.
If the “emergency call connection hold enabled“ configuration parameter is enabled, the IP phones employ the follow-
ing behaviors:
Connection Hold: If an emergency call is placed, the IP phones ensure the voice/audio path and other resources asso-
ciated with the emergency call are continually active, even if the caller hangs up the phone (i.e. the handset is placed
on-hook).
If the handset is placed on-hook, the phone automatically switches to speakerphone mode ensuring that the call is
still active. Alternatively, if the handset is taken off-hook, the phone automatically switches to handset mode.
All softkey and hardkey events (e.g. hold, conference, transfer, end call, park, mute, etc...) are disabled as they may
impede or be disruptive to the active call.
The phone does not allow for the origination or termination of any call while the phone is connected to the emer-
gency services agent. All incoming calls and pages are ignored and a busy tone is presented to the remote caller.
Enhanced Called Party Hold: As a complement to the Connection Hold feature, Enhanced Called Party Hold allows
the voice/audio path to be established the moment the emergency call is placed.
When a caller places a call to an emergency services number, all Connection Hold features are activated, even if the
SIP session has not been established completely.
Even if the caller abandons the call before the emergency services agent answers, the voice/audio path and Con-
nection Hold features will still be active.
Forced Disconnect: As the Connection Hold feature ensures that the caller cannot terminate the call, the only way
the call can be terminated is if the emergency services agent forces the disconnection by ending the call himself/her-
self.
The “emergency call connection hold enabled“ parameter is disabled by default.
Configuring Emergency Call Behavior
Use the following procedures to configure the IP phones behavior when emergency calls are placed.
User Dial Plan Setting
The IP Phones have a parameter for configuring a dial plan that distinguishes between calling a real PSTN number and a
number that looks like a PSTN number but is actually on an IP network.
This parameter is “sip user parameter dial plan. Using the configuration files, an Administrator can configure a dial plan
corresponding to a IP network number (i.e. 6xx|8xxxx|9xxxxxxx) that the phone checks before sending the SIP packet.
If for example, the number that was dialed was 645, the phone checks the dial plan and matches the number to the dial
plan (6xx in the example above), before sending out the SIP packet. The SIP packet header omits the user parameter
user=ip (i.e. “To: <sip:645@10.30.102.24:10060>“) identifying the number as one from an IP network. If the number that
was dialed was 456-2345, the phone tries to match the number to the dial plan before sending out the SIP packet but as
it is not part of the dial plan the phone identifies the number as a PSTN number. The SIP packet header in this case indi-
cates user=phone (i.e., “To: <sip:4562345:10060;user=phone>“).
Configuration Files
For specific parameters you can set in the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section, “Emergency Call Behavior Settings on pageA-15.
Note:
Entering a dial plan value for this parameter enables this feature. Entering no value for this parameter in the config-
uration files, disables this feature.
You can configure the “sip user parameter dial plan” parameter on a global basis only. If it is misconfigured, then
the parameter is ignored.

Configuring the SIP User Parameter Dial Plan
Use the following procedure to configure the SIP user parameter dial plan.
Limitation
The “sip user parameter dial plan” value is checked AFTER an existing prepend dial plan is checked, so the number that
the phone dials will have prepend digits also.
Time and Date
In addition to enabling/disabling the time server, you can also set the time and date format, set the time zone, and set day-
light savings time on the IP phones. You configure these features using the configuration files, the IP Phone UI, or the Aas-
tra Web UI. The following table identifies which method of configuration applies to each feature.
Daylight Savings Time (DST) Information
The Aastra IP Phones incorporate the federally mandated DST observance change. This change became affective starting
in 2007.
The US has made a change to its daylight savings time observance starting in 2007. The Energy Policy Act of 2005 man-
dates that DST will now begin at 2:00 A.M. on the second Sunday in March and revert to Standard time on the first Sunday
in November.
The changes to daylight savings time applies to the U.S. and Canada, but may impact other countries outside North Amer-
ica.
Time Zone & DST
There are two ways you can set the time zone on the IP Phones.

DHCP Time Offset (Option 2) Support
DHCP Option 42 enables the phone to be configured with the Network Time Protocol (NTP) server addresses. However,
NTP provides the Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) time so the phone requires the offset from UTC in order to deliver
the correct local time.
A User or Administrator can set the offset of UTC using DHCP Option 2.
An Administrator can enable Option 2 in the configuration files by setting the parameter “time zone name”. I f t h i s
parameter contains the DP-Dhcp value, the phone derives the time and date from UTC and the time offset offered by the
DHCP server.
Using the IP Phone UI, a User or Administrator can enable the phone to use DHCP Option 2 by setting the following val-
ues from the Country Code list on the phone:
On the IP Phone UI for 8 and 11-line phones, a User or Administrator can select Preferences->Time and Date->Time
Zone->Others and choose “DP-Dhcp” from the displayed time zone list.
On the IP Phone UI for 3-line phones, you select Preferences->Time and Date->Time Zone->Others and enter “DP” for
the country code, or press “*” and select “Dhcp” from the displayed time zone list.
On the 6739i, a User or Administrator can select Set Time->Timezone->Others and choose “DP-Dhcp” from the dis-
played time zone list.
If you enable DHCP Option 2 via the IP Phone UI, the change takes place dynamically.
References
For more information about setting DP-DHCP for the timezone, see Appendix A, “Time Zone Name on pageA-41.
For more information about setting the country code, see Appendix A, Country Codes (from Standard ISO 3166) on
pageA-138.
Country Name Country Code
Dhcp DP
Note:
The country name, country code, and time zone name are case sensitive.
Notes:
When DHCP Option 2 is enabled on the phone, the phone still uses the values configured for Daylight Savings to
control daylight savings time.
The default behavior for the phone is to use the NTP server from Option 42 (or current configuration setting) and the
current time zone settings.
If the time zone name parameter is set to a value other than Dhcp, then DHCP Option 2 is disabled.

Custom Time Zone Support
A User or Administrator can also set a custom time zone on the phone to be configured with the Network Time Protocol
(NTP) server addresses. However, NTP provides the Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) time so the phone requires the offset
from UTC in order to deliver the correct local time.
On the IP Phone UI for 8 and 11-line phones, a User or Administrator can select Preferences->Time and Date->Time Zone-
>Others and choose “Custom” from the displayed time zone list.

The following table illustrates the Latin 2 character set now used on the IP Phones.
Minimum Ringer Volume
To prevent the user from turning off the ringer, an Administrator can configure a parameter called “ringer volume mini-
mum” to set the minimum ringer volume level. When the minimum ringer level is reached while the user keeps pressing
the button, the level of sound does not change.
Locking IP Phone Keys
The IP phones allow you to lock or unlock programmable keys, softkeys, keypad keys, hard keys, cordless handset keys,
and expansion keys (for expansion modules). When key locking is enabled, the phone locks the key with the provisioned
local settings and prevents users from changing or configuring the key. In this case, the local settings (i.e. those configured
through the Web UI or [for the 6739i] the phone UI) take precedence over any key parameters defined in the configuration
files.
Note:
This minimum ringer volume does not affect the “silent” ring tone. When the silent ring tone is selected, no ringing will
be played by the phone
Configuration Files
For the specific parameter you can set in the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section, “Minimum Ringer Volume on pageA-150.
Notes:
If no settings are configured locally but the key type is defined in a configuration file, the phone will lock the respec-
tive key with the type defined in the configuration file along with any values associated with the additional key
parameters (e.g. for softkeys, “softkeyN label”,softkeyN value, “softkeyN line, “softkeyN states”).
Administrators also have the option of simply adding an exclamation mark (i.e. “!”) in front of the respective key
parameters to lock the keys to the values defined in the configuration files, overriding any locally configured settings
(see Locking Parameters in the Configuration File on page 2-15 for further details).

Locking/Unlocking the SAVE and DELETE keys
By default, the 6730i, 6731i, 6753i, and 6865i have two keys dedicated to the Save and Delete functions. These two keys
can be made programmable by the Administrator, freeing up the total number of programmable keys if required.
If a System Administrator unlocks the Save and Delete keys, these keys can be configured with the same functions that
are available for the other programmable keys. Only the System Administrator can unlock these keys.
The Save key allows you to save entries to the Directory and perform a Save-To from the Callers List. It also allows you to
save speeddial information to a programmable key. You can also use the Save key while using specific XML applications.
The Delete key allows you to remove entries from the Directory List and Callers List. (Must enter the Directory or Callers list
and select an entry, then press twice to delete entry).
By default, the Save and Delete keys are locked so that a user can use them for saving and deleting only. An Administrator
can unlock these keys using the configuration files, allowing the keys to be programmed with other functions if required.
An Administrator can use the following parameters in the configuration file to lock and unlock the Save and Delete keys:
For the 6730i, 6731i, and 6865i:
prgkey5 locked
prgkey6 locked
For the 6753i:
prgkey1 locked
prgkey2 locked
The value of "0" unlocks the keys, and the value of "1" locks the keys. The default is "1" (lock).
The following is an example of unlocking the Save and Delete keys on the 6753i using the configuration files:
Example:
prgkey1 locked: 0
prgkey2 locked: 0
Once the Save and Delete keys are unlocked, a User can change the function of the keys using the Aastra Web UI. An
Administrator can change the function of the keys using the Aastra Web UI or the configuration files.

Operational Features
5-52 41-001343-02 REV04 – 05.2014
Local Dial Plan
A dial plan describes the number and pattern of digits that a user dials to reach a particular telephone number. Access
codes, area codes, specialized codes, and combinations of the number of digits dialed are all part of a dial plan. For
instance, the North American Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) uses a 10-digit dial plan that includes a 3-digit
area code and a 7-digit telephone number. Most PBXs support variable length dial plans that use 3 to 11 digits. Dial plans
must comply with the telephone networks to which they connect. Only totally private voice networks that are not linked
to the PSTN or to other PBXs can use any dial plan.
The Dial Plan field accepts up to 512 characters. If a User enters a dial plan longer than 512 characters, or a parsing error
occurs, the phone uses the default dial plan of “x+#|xx+*”. You configure the SIP Local Dial Plan using the Aastra Web UI
or the configuration files.
The IP phone SIP local dial plan available symbols are as follows:
Dial Plan Example
An example of a SIP Local Dial Plan is:
[01]XXX|[2-8]XXXX|91XXXXXX
XXXX|X+.|*XX
The dial plan in the above example can accept any 4-digit dial strings that begin with a '0' or '1', any 5-digit dial strings
that begin with a '2' up to '8', any 12-digit dial strings that begin with '91', any non-empty digit string that ends with a '.' or
any 2-digit code that begins with a '*'.
Prefix Dialing
The IP phones support a prefix dialing feature for outgoing calls.
You can manually dial a number or dial a number from a list. The phone automatically maps the pre-configured pre-
pended digit in the configuration, to the outgoing number. When a match is found, the prepended digits are added to
the beginning of the dial string and the call is dialed.
You can enable this feature by adding a prepend digit(s) to the end of the Local Dial Plan parameter string in the config-
uration files or the Aastra Web UI at
Basic Settings->Preferences->General.
Symbol Description
0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 Digit symbol
; Allows a secondary dial tone to be audible before dialing a number.
X Match any digit symbol (wildcard)
*, #, . Other keypad symbol
| Expression inclusive OR
+ 0 or more of the preceding digit symbol or [] expression
[] Symbol inclusive OR
- Used only with [], represent a range of acceptable symbols; For example, [2-8]
; Used when a secondary dial tone is required on the phone. (For example, “9;xxxxxx, when a user has to
dial “9” to get and outside line and needs a secondary dial one presented
Note:
The prepend digits are also added if the dialing times-out on a partial match.
Operational Features
41-001343-02 REV04 – 05.2014 5-53
For example, if you add a prepend map of “[2-9]XXXXXXXXX,91”, the IP phone adds the digits “91” to any 10-digit number
beginning with any digit from 2 to 9 that is dialed out. Other examples of prepend mappings are:
1X+#,9 (Prepends 9 to any digit string beginning with “1” and terminated with “#”.)
6XXX,579 (Prepends “579” to any 4-digit string starting with “6”.)
[4-6]XXXXXX,78
(Prepends “78” to any 7-digit string starting with “4”, “5”, or “6”.)
Example:
If you enter the following dial string for a local dial plan:
sip dial plan: 1+#,9
where “9” is the prepended digit, and you dial the following number:
15551212
the IP phone automatically adds the “9” digit to the beginning of the dialed number before the number is forwarded as
915551212.
SIP Dial Plan Terminator
The IP phone provides a feature that allows an administrator to configure whether or not pressing the hash/pound (i.e. “#”)
key, while performing an outgoing call on an open line, should be sent as %23 to the proxy in the dial string or if the key
should be used as a dial plan terminator (i.e. dials out the call immediately). By default, the hash/pound key is configured
as a dial plan terminator; however, an administrator can change the behavior using the Aastra Web UI or the configuration
files.
Digit Timeout
The IP phone allows you to configure a “Digit Timeout” feature on the IP phone. The Digit Timeout is the time, in seconds,
between consecutive key presses on the IP phone’s keypad. The default for this parameter is 4 seconds. If you press a key
on the phone and wait 4 seconds before pressing the next key, the key times out and cancels the digit selection. You must
press consecutive keys before the timeout occurs.
Secondary Dial Tone
The IP phones now support a feature that allows the user to dial a predefined dial string, obtain a dial tone, and continue
dialing. A User or Administrator can configure this using the existing Dial Plan feature on the phone.
You can enter a new character string in the dial plan that allows you to configure the secondary dial tone. The character
string is of the form ".;." , where the period indicates an arbitrary number of digits and the semicolon indicates that the
phone is to present a dial tone after the previous dialed digit. For example, in the string:
"9;xxxxx"
the user dials “9” to get the outside line, listens for the dial tone, and continues to dial the applicable number. The “;” tells
the phone to present a second dial tone after the previously dialed digit. “The “xxxxx” in the example tells the phone that
a phone number is dialed after the secondary dial tone is audible.
You can enter the Secondary Dial Tone string in the Dial Plan using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.
You use the following parameter in the configuration files to configure a secondary dial tone:
sip dial plan
Example:
sip dial plan: “9;5551313”

You can configure a local dial plan via the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.

Suppressing DTMF Playback
A feature on the IP phones allows administrators to enable or disable the suppression of DTMF playback when a number is
dialed from the softkeys and programmable keys.
When suppression of DTMF playback is disabled, and you press a softkey or programmable key, the IP phone dials the
stored number and displays each digit as dialed in the LCD window.
When the suppression of DTMF playback is enabled, the IP phone dials the stored number and displays the entire number
immediately in the LCD window, allowing the call to be dialed much faster.
DTMF playback suppression is enabled by default. The “suppress dtmf playback” parameter can be configured using the
configuration files.
Configuring Suppression of DTMF Playback
Use the following procedures to configure the suppression of DTMF playback on the IP phone.
Display DTMF Digits
A feature on the IP phones allows administrators to enable or disable DTMF (dual-tone multi-frequency) digits to display
to the IP phone when using the keypad to dial, or when dialing from a softkey or programmable key.
DTMF is the signal sent from the phone to the network that you generate when you press the phone’s touch keys. This is
also known as “touchtone” dialing. Each key you press on your phone generates two tones of specific frequencies. One
tone is generated from a high-frequency group of tones and the other from a low frequency group.
If you enable the Display DTMF Digits parameter, the digits you are dialing from the keypad or from a softkey or program-
mable key display to the IP phones LCD display. This parameter is disabled by default (no digits display when dialing).
You can enable thedisplay dtmf digits” parameter using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.
Configuring Display DTMF Digits
Use the following procedures to configure the display DTMF digits option on the IP phone.

Call Waiting
The call waiting feature notifies a user on an active call on the phone, of a new incoming call. You can disable this call wait-
ing feature, so that the new incoming call is automatically rejected by the phone with a busy message. A User or Adminis-
trator can configure this feature.
If you disable call waiting on the phone, and the user is on a call, any further incoming calls will receive busy unless “Call
Forward Busy” or “Call Forward No Answer and Busy” is configured on the phone. It will then forward the call according to
the rule configured. The phone can only:
transfer the currently active call
or
accept transferred calls if there is no active calls.
If call waiting is disabled:
on the 6757i CT bases, and the handset is currently on a call, all additional incoming calls are rejected on the handset.
intercom calls are treated as regular incoming calls and are rejected.
pre-dialing with live dialpad disabled still accepts incoming calls.

Call Forward Mode
Call Forward (CFWD) on the IP phone allows incoming calls to be forwarded to another destination. The phone sends the
SIP message to the SIP proxy, which then forwards the call to the assigned destination.
An Administrator or User can configure CFWD on the phone-side by setting a mode for the phone to use (Account,
Phone, or Custom). Once the mode is set, you can use the IP Phone UI to use the CFWD feature at Options->Call Forward or
by pressing a configured Call Forward softkey/programmable key/extension module key.
The following describes the behavior for each CFWD mode.
Account mode - The account mode allows you to configure CFWD on a per account basis. Pressing a configured CFWD
key applies to the account in focus.
Phone mode - The Phone mode allows you to set the same CFWD configuration for all accounts (All, Busy, and/or No
Answer). When you configure the initial account, the phone applies the configuration to all other accounts. (In the Aas-
tra Web UI, only the account you configured is enabled. All other accounts are grayed out but set to the same configura-
tion.) Using the Aastra Web UI, if you make changes to that initial account, the changes apply to all accounts on the
phone.
Custom mode - The Custom mode allows you to configure CFWD for a specific account or all accounts. You can config-
ure a specific mode (All, Busy, and/or No Answer) for each account independently or all accounts. On the 3-line LCD
phones and the 6867i, you can set all accounts to ALL On or ALL Off. On the 8 and 11-Line LCD phones and the 6739i,
you can set all accounts to All On, All Off, or copy the configuration for the account in focus to all other accounts using

Account
The account mode allows you to configure CFWD on a per account basis. Pressing a configured CFWD key applies to the account in focus.
Phone
The Phone mode allows you to set the same CFWD configuration for all accounts (All, Busy, and/or No Answer). When you configure the
initial account, the phone applies the configuration to all other accounts. (In the Aastra Web UI, only the account you configured is ena-
bled. All other accounts are grayed out but set to the same configuration.) Using the Aastra Web UI, if you make changes to that initial
account, the changes apply to all accounts on the phone.
Custom
The Custom mode allows you to configure CFWD for a specific account or all accounts. You can configure a specific state (All, Busy, and/or
No Answer) for each account independently or all accounts. On the 3-Line LCD phones and the 6867i, you can set all accounts to ALL On
or ALL Off.
On the 8 and 11-Line LCD phones and the 6739i, you can set all accounts to All On, All Off, or copy the configuration for the account in

Link Layer Discovery Protocol for Media Endpoint Devices (LLDP-MED) and
Emergency Location Identification Number (ELIN)
The IP Phones support Link Layer Discovery Protocol for Media Endpoint Devices (LLDP-MED). LLDP-MED is designed to
allow for things such as:
Auto-discovery of LAN policies (such as VLAN, Layer 2 Priority and Diffserv settings) leading to "plug and play" network-
ing.
Extended and automated power management of Power over Ethernet endpoints.
Inventory management, allowing network administrators to track their network devices, and determine their character-
istics (manufacturer, software and hardware versions, serial / asset number).
On the IP Phones, LLDP-MED performs the following:
Supports the MAC/PHY configuration (e.g. speed rate/duplex mode).
Supports VLAN info from the network policy; this takes precedence over manual settings.
Allows you to enable/disable LLDP-MED if required.
Allows you to configure time interval between successive LLDP Data Unit (LLDPDU) frames.
Allows LLDP packets to be received from the LAN port.
Allows the phone to use the location information, Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN) Emergency Location Identifica-
tion Number (ELIN), sent by the switch, as a caller ID for making emergency calls.
Aastra IP Phones have a 32 second time-out for listening to LLDP-MED responses when the phone is booting up. If LLDP-
MED responses are received after this initial listening period, the phone will ignore the response. Administrators can con-
figure this time-out interval using the "lldp startinterval" parameter. This parameter is only valid during the phone
bootup process and it will control the LLDP-MED time-out interval where the phone sends LLDP-MED advertisements and
listens for the LLDP-MED responses from the switch before proceeding to the DHCP stage. The default value of this param-
eter is 32 seconds.
Administrators can also now configure the optional Link Layer Discovery Protocol for Media Endpoint Devices (LLDP-MED)
Inventory Management type-length-value (TLV) sets. Using the “lldp optional inventory management tlv” parameter,
Administrators can configure the phone to either send all Inventory Management TLV (1) sets or to send none (0) . The
default for this parameter is (1).
The following table identifies the configuration parameters for LLDP and ELIN and which method you can use to configure
each parameter. This table also indicates whether the parameters can be configured by an Administrator, a User, or both.
Note:
If the phone receives location information in ECN ELIN format (10 to 25 numeric string), the phone replaces the caller
ID SIP header with the ECN ELIN value and the SIP URI does not change. The phone determines if this is an emergency
number by checking the emergency dial plan configured on the phone.

Incoming/Outgoing Intercom with Auto-Answer and Barge In
The Intercom feature allows you to press the configured Intercom button on the IP phone and then enter the number you
want to call to initiate an intercom call. Intercom calls can be controlled either locally (phone-side) or by the SIP server
(server-side).
You can configure incoming and outgoing intercom calls on all phone models. A User can configure incoming intercom
calls only.
Outgoing Intercom Calls
On outgoing intercom calls, an available unused line is found when the Icom button is pressed. Since this line has no con-
figuration, the phone applies an existing configuration ("Outgoing Intercom Settings", Line, default is Line 1) to this line in
preparation for placing the intercom call. For example, an outgoing intercom call can use the configuration of line 1 but
places the actual intercom call using line 9. Only an Administrator can configure outgoing intercom calls.
A phone-side Intercom call indicates the phone is responsible for telling the recipient that an intercom call is being
placed, while a server-side intercom call means the SIP server is responsible for informing the recipient. Server-side calls
require additional configuration of a prefix code. After pressing the Icom button and entering the number to call, the
phone automatically adds the prefix to the called number and sends the outgoing call via the server.
For outgoing intercom calls, an administrator can configure the following parameters:

Incoming Intercom Calls
You can configure how the phone handles incoming intercom calls. You can receive incoming intercom calls whether or
not there are active calls on the phone. The way the phone handles the call depends on the incoming intercom call con-
figuration. The following paragraphs describe the configuration parameters for incoming intercom calls.
Microphone Mute
You can mute or unmute the microphone on the IP phone for intercom calls made by the originating caller. If you want
to mute the intercom call, you enable this feature. If you want to unmute (or hear the intercom call), you disable this fea-
ture.
Auto-Answer/Play Warning Tone
The auto-answer feature on the IP phone allows you to enable or disable automatic answering for an Intercom call. If
Auto-Answer” is enabled, the phone automatically answers an incoming intercom call. If “Play Warning Tone” is also
enabled, the phone plays a tone to alert the user before answering the intercom call. If “Auto-Answer” is disabled, the
phone treats the incoming intercom call as a normal call.
The IP phone recognizes if an incoming call is an intercom auto-answer call if the SIP INVITE includes one of the follow-
ing:
A “Call-Info” header containing “answer-after=0”.
An “Alert-Info” header containing “info=alert-autoanswer.
An “Alert-Info” header containing “Auto Answer” AND the“To” header containing “intercom=true.
When the IP phones recognize this third type of incoming intercom call, the call will automatically be answered and
the call’s audio will be played through the IP phones speaker (i.e. the user’s audio preferences will be ignored).
“Delay” before Auto-Answer
The IP Phones include support for the "delay" parameter (in the Alert-Info header, used in conjunction with info=alert-
autoanswer) in order to facilitate auto-answer functionality. When present, the value of the "delay" parameter specifies
the length of time in seconds an IP phone rings before a call is auto-answered. If this value of the "delay" parameter set to
0 (delay=0), then an incoming call is immediately auto-answered. The absence of the parameter is considered as ring for-
ever.
In order for the delay functionality to operate, you must first enable Auto-Answer on the IP Phone.
Allow Barge In
You can configure whether or not the IP phone allows an incoming intercom call to interrupt an active call. The “sip
intercom allow barge in” parameter controls this feature. When you enable the sip intercom allow barge in parameter
(1 = enable in the configuration files), which is the default value, an incoming intercom call takes precedence over any
active call, by placing the active call on hold and automatically answering the intercom call. When you disable this
parameter (0 = disable in the configuration files), and there is an active call, the phone treats an incoming intercom call
like a normal call and plays the call warning tone. You can set this parameter using the configuration files or the Aastra
Web UI.
For incoming intercom calls, an administrator or user can configure the following parameters:

41-001343-02 REV04 – 05.2014 5-83
How it works
After pressing a configured “Paging” key on the phone, the phone sends an RTP stream to a preconfigured multicast
address (IP port). Any phone in the local network then listens for the RTP stream on the preconfigured multicast address
(IP port). For both sending and receiving of the multicast RTP there is no sip signaling involved. When the phone sends or
receives a multicast RTP, it shows its involvement to the user by displaying "Paging".
The phone uses a preconfigured G711 uLaw CODEC for multicast RTP.
For Paging Systems, the phone only plays RTP traffic; users have the ability to drop a rogue page. The recipient can drop
the incoming page if required. The recipient can also set Do Not Disturb (DND) to ignore any incoming pages.
For incoming RTP multicasts, the ringing display is dependant on the “Allow Barge-In” parameter. If this parameter is dis-
abled, and there is not other call on the phone, then the paging is automatically played via the preferred audio device (see
the <Model-Specific> IP Phone User Guide for setting Audio Mode on the phone).
If there is an existing call on the phone, the call initially displays in the ringing state. The user has the option to
accept/ignore the call. If the “Allow Barge-In” parameter is enabled, the RTP multicast call barges in, and any existing calls
are put on hold.
If an RTP multicast session already exists on the phone, and the phone receives another incoming RTP multicast session,
the priority is given to the first multicast session and the second multicast session is ignored. The behavior for the incom-
ing calls in this case is also based on the setting for the “Allow Barge-in” parameter. The incoming call is handled as if
there were an existing call already on the phone.
Configuring Group Paging RTP Settings
Use the following procedure to configure Group Paging RTP Settings using the configuration files.
Use the following procedure to configure RTP streaming for Paging applications using the Aastra Web UI.
Note:
Multicast RTP is one way only - from sender to the receiver (i.e. from sender to the multicast address (receiver)).
Note:
For outgoing RTP multicasts, all other existing calls on the phone are put on hold.
Configuration Files
For specific parameters you can set in the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section, “Group Paging RTP Settings” on pageA-147.

6. In the “Value” field, enter a multicast IP address and a port number for the Paging key. When you press this key, the phone initiates an out-
going multicast RTP session to the specified address using the specified port. (For example, 224.0.0.2:10000).
Notes:
When you select Paging for the “Type” field, the “Line” field and state fields are disabled.
The valid port range is from 1 to 65535.
7. Click Save Settings to save your changes.
Notes:
The recipient of a Paging call can set a global “Do Not Disturb” (DND) to ignore any incoming pages.

Using Redial Key for “Last Number Redial”
The IP phones have an enhanced redial user interface that allows a user to quickly redial the last number that was dialed
out from the phone. You can:
Press the Redial key twice to redial the last number dialed.
Press the Redial key once, scroll the list of numbers, then press the Redial button again to dial the number that dis-
plays on the screen.
The “last number redial” feature for the Redial key is static and is not configurable.
Send DTMF for Remapping Conference or Redial Key
Previously, the “Conf” and “Redial” keys could be mapped to a speed dial to generate a call to a custom number when
the phone was idle. During an active call, pressing the “Redial” or “Conf” keys would put the current call on hold and
then dial the custom number. Now the “Conf” and “Redial” key remappings have the same behavior as the “Speed Dial
key when the phone is idle. During an active call the phone will send the custom number as DTMF using the phone con-
figured DTMF method (inbound vs out-of-band RFC2833 vs SIP INFO).
This feature can be configured using the new “map redial as dtmf” and “map conf as dtmf” parameters.
When a user presses the “Redial” key, the mapped number will be sent out as DTMF during an active call if the current
map redial key to” parameter is configured to a number and the “map redial as dtmf” parameter is set to “1”.
When a user presses the “Conf” key, the mapped number will be sent out as DTMF during an active call if the current
map conf key to” parameter is configured to a number and “map conf as dtmf” parameter is set to “1”.
Enabling or Disabling the Sending of DTMF with Remapped Redial and Conf Keys

Ring Tone via Speaker During Active Calls
The parameter “ring audibly enable” can be used to configure the IP phones to play the ring tone of an incoming call
via the phone’s speaker while in an active call or if a user is in the process of dialing out.
With the parameter enabled, if a user is in an active call on an extension, and the phone receives a call for the same or dif-
ferent extension, the incoming call will be represented by the call’s ring tone being played through the speaker as well as
the respective lines LED flashing. This is also the case if a user is in the process of dialing out to a remote number and the
phone receives a call for any line other than the line that is being used to dial out. When the phone exits the ringing state
(e.g. the incoming call is answered), the tone device of the phone will revert back to originally configured audio device.
Feature compatibility is dependant on the IP phone model (see the following table for compability details).

Configuring the Ring Tone via Speaker During Active Calls Feature
Use the following procedures to configure the ring tone via speaker during active calls feature.
No Service Congestion Tone
Administrators can configure the IP phones to play a congestion/fast busy tone instead of a dial tone when the phone is in
a “No Service” state. This feature allows visually impaired persons the ability to discern whether or not the phone is in serv-
ice and can be used to send/receive calls.
The configuration parameter “no service congestion tone” allows administrators the ability to enable this accessibility
feature. When enabled, the congestion tone will replace the conventional dial tone when the handset is off hook, a head-
set is employed, or the speakerphone is engaged. The congestion tone’s frequency/pattern is based on the respective
phones configured tone set. Additionally, the congestion tone is played on a per-line basis whereby only the specific lines
that are without service are affected.
With consideration to scenarios where a dial tone should be played even if the phone is in a “No Service” state (e.g. scenar-
ios where the proxy may still accept INVITEs from the phone even if unregistered), the “no service congestion tone
parameter has been programmed as disabled by default.

Configuring the No Service Congestion Tone
Use the following procedures to configure the no service congestion tone feature.
Priority Alerting
Priority alerting on the IP phones is a feature that allows incoming calls to trigger pre-defined ringing or call waiting alert
tones.
You can enable or disable priority alerting on the IP phone for the Asterisk, Broadworks, and Sylantro servers using the
configuration files and the Aastra Web UI. Configuration of priority alerting is on a global-basis only.
How Priority Alerting Works
When the IP phone detects an incoming call, the phone firmware inspects the INVITE request in the IP packet for an
"Alert-Info" header.
If it contains an "Alert-Info" header, the firmware strips out the URL and keyword parameter and maps it to the appropri-
ate Bellcore tone.
If there is no keyword parameter in the "Alert-Info" header, or the INVITE message contains no "Alert-Info" header, then
the IP phone firmware uses the Bellcore standard ring tone.
Asterisk/Broadworks Servers
The ring tone keywords that can display in the "Alert-Info" header for an Asterisk and Broadworks server are:
Bellcore-dr2
Bellcore-dr3
Bellcore-dr4
Bellcore-dr5
When the ring tone keywords appear in an "Alert-Info" header from an Asterisk or Broadworks server, the IP phone maps
the keywords to the default ring tone patterns.
Example:
The following are examples of the Asterisk/Broadworks Server ring tone keywords:
Alert-Info: <http://127.0.0.1/Bellcore-dr2>
or
Alert-Info: <Bellcore-dr2>
Configuration Files
For specific parameters you can set in the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section, “No Service Congestion Tone Settings” on pageA-122.
Operational Features
41-001343-02 REV04 – 05.2014 5-93
Sylantro Servers
The ring tone keywords that can display in the "Alert-Info" header for a Sylantro server are:
alert-acd (auto call distribution)
alert-community-1
alert-community-2
alert-community-3
alert-community-4
alert-emergency
alert-external
alert-group
alert-internal
alert-priority
When the ring tone keywords appear in an "Alert-Info" header from a Sylantro server, the keyword is mapped to the ring
tone pattern based on the configuration you set in the Aastra Web UI or the configuration files.
Ring Tone Patterns
In IP Telephony, different ringing patterns have different frequencies and cadences. Ring cadence is the ringing pattern
heard by the called party, before they pick up the call.
On the IP phones, if you enable priority alerting when using an Asterisk or Broadworks server, the IP phone uses the fol-
lowing Bellcore-specified tones by default:
Ring Tone Pattern (Asterisk/Broadworks Servers)
If you enable priority alerting when using a Sylantro server, you can specify the Bellcore tone to be used for the following
configurable criteria:

Directed Call Pickup (BLF or XML Call Interception)
Directed call pickup (for Asterisk and sipXecs servers) is a feature on the phones that allows a user to intercept a call on a
ringing phone which is part of the same interception group. The phones also support the Busy Lamp Field (BLF) hold
state that is expressed by a slow flashing LED. When using an Asterisk server, if administrators configure BLF for Directed
Call Pickup, users are able to pickup the held call, as the phone sends the directed call pickup prefix to the extension
number.
You can use the Directed call pickup feature on the phone in multiple ways:
With the existing BLF feature on Asterisk or sipXecs, a user can dial “*76” or “*78” respectively, followed by the exten-
sion to pick up a ringing call on another phone. (For more information about BLF, see “Busy Lamp Field (BLF)” on
page 5-128.
Using XML, a user can intercept a call by selecting an extension from a list and then pressing a “Pickup” softkey/pro-
grammable key. To use the Directed call pickup feature from an XML application, you must list all ringing extensions
using the AastraIPPhoneTextMenu XML object in an XML script. This allows the user to select the ringing extension
from a text menu without having to dial.
BLF and XML softkeys/programmable keys monitor the states of an extension. The extension states can be one of three
states: "busy", "ringing" and "idle". If the monitored extension is in the "ringing" state with an incoming call, and "Directed
call pickup" is enabled, pressing the BLF or XML key can pick up the incoming call on the monitored extension.
Reference
For more information about using the AastraIPPhoneTextMenu object, contact Aastra Customer Support regarding the
Aastra XML Development Guide.
Directed Call Pickup Prefix (optional)
The optional “directed call pickup prefix” allows you to enter a specific prefix string (depending on what is available on
your server), that the phone automatically dials when dialing the Directed Call Pickup number. For example, for Broad-
soft servers, you can enter a value of *98 for the “directed call pickup prefix” (for sipXecs, *78 is used). When the phone
performs the Directed Call Pickup after pressing a BLF or BLF/List softkey, the phone prepends the *98 value to the desig-
nated extension of the BLF or BLF/List softkey when dialing out.

How this Feature Works when Directed Call Pickup is Disabled with BLF or BLF/List
You can enable/disable “Directed Call Pickup” using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.
Enabling/Disabling Directed Call Pickup
Use the following procedure to enable or disable the Directed Call Pickup feature on the IP phone.
1. Phone A monitors Phone B via BLF/List.
2. Phone C calls Phone B; Phone B rings.
3. If you press the BLF/List softkey on Phone A, it picks up the ringing line on Phone B.
4. Phone C connects to Phone A.
1. Phone A monitors Phone B via BLF/List.
2. Phone C calls Phone B; Phone B rings
3. If you press the BLF/List softkey on Phone A, it performs a speeddial to Phone B.
4. Phone C and Phone A are ringing Phone B on separate lines (if available).
Notes:
The default method for the phone to use is Directed Call Pickup over BLF if the server provides applicable informa-
tion. If the Directed Call Pickup over BLF information is missing in the messages to the server, the Directed Call Pickup
by Prefix method is used if a value for the prefix code exists in the configuration.
You can define only one prefix, which will be applicable to all BLF- or BLF/List-monitored extensions.
The phone that picks up displays the prefix code + the extension number (for example, *981234 where prefix key =
*98, extension = 1234).
Note:
The “Directed Call Pickup” feature is disabled by default.

You can enable or disable the softkey states using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI. In the Aastra Web UI, you
disable a state by unchecking the box for that operational state.
In the configuration files, you use the following parameters to enable and disable operational states:
softkeyN states
You can enter multiple values (idle, connected, incoming, outgoing, busy) for the "softkeyN state" parameter. For
example:
softkeyN states: idle connected
You must associate the softkeyN state parameter with a specific softkey. In the following example, the softkeyN states
parameter is associated with softkey 12:
softkey12 type: speeddial
softkey12 label: voicemail
softkey12 value *89
softkey12 states: outgoing
Configuration Example
The following example illustrates the use of the "softkeyN states" parameter, and the "softkeyN type" parameter with a
value of empty. For clarity purposes, only the "softkeyN type" and "softkeyNstates" parameters are shown.
softkey1 type: line
softkey1 states: idle connected
softkey3 type: dnd
softkey3 states: idle
softkey4 type: line
softkey5 type: empty
softkey5 states: connected
softkey6 type: speeddial
softkey6 states: connected
Paging All states disabled.
Empty idle, connected, incoming, outgoing, busy
Notes:
By default the IP phone idle screen collapses the softkeys. So in the previous example, softkey 12 will appear in posi-
tion 1 if no other softkeys are set.
A softkey type of "empty" does not display on the idle screen at all. For more information about the softkey type of
"empty" see Appendix A, the section, “Softkey Settings” on page A-158.

6757i Cordless (CT) Feature Keys
In addition to the softkeys on the 6757i CT, this phone also has handset keys you can configure with specific features.
You can use the Aastra Web UI to configure the handset keys.
You can program up to 15 feature keys on the 6757i CT handset with specific functions using the Aastra Web UI.
The following table identifies the functions available for all 15 handset keys and the default functions for each key.
Feature Key Programming Guidelines
The following are guidelines to use when programming the feature keys on the handset:
All handsets paired with the same Base Station have the same programmed functions since the web interface applies
the functions to all the handsets paired with that base.
A newly registered handset or handset that was out-of-range during the programming needs to perform an "off-hook
and on-hook" sequence in order for the newly programmed function to be broadcasted to the affected handsets.
Simply press the v key from the idle state to go off-hook. Then, press the y key to go back on-hook.
Duplicate functions can exist in the feature key as there is no filtering or duplicate checking done on the handset or

Reprogramming Hard Key Functionality Using the Configuration Files
Use the following procedures to reprogram the functionality of hard keys on the IP 6867i IP phone.
Configuration Parameter Description
hardkeyN locked Locks the specified hard key on the IP phones. When enabled, the phone locks the key with the provisioned
local settings and prevents users from changing or configuring the key.
Note:
If no settings are configured locally but the “hardkeyN type” is defined in a configuration file, the phone will
lock the key with the key type defined in the configuration file along with any values associated with the addi-
tional “hardkeyN” parameters (i.e. “hardkeyN value” and “hardkeyN line”).
hardkeyN ring splash When a key is configured for BLF functionality, this parameter controls the ring splash alert pattern per key.
The following alerting patterns are available:
Silence (ring splash off).
Normal splash (same as current BLF ring splash).
Normal - delayed (After a delay of (x) seconds, the normal ring splash is played).
Periodic (similar to the normal ring signal that is used by the phone itself. The actual ring melody is based
on the current melody set for the line where the BLF key is associated to).
Periodic - delayed (after a delay of (x) seconds, the ring signal that is used by the phone is played - see
above).
One low volume splash (same as the current BLF ring splash but at a lower level to be less intrusive).
One low volume splash - delayed (after a delay of (x) seconds, the ring signal that is the same as the current
BLF ring splash is played at a lower level).
When a key is configured for BLF/List functionality, this parameter controls the ring tone per key. The follow-
ing ring tones are available:
Ring tone 1
Ring tone 2
Ring tone 3
Ring tone 4
Ring tone 5
Silence (ring tone off)
Note:
Ring tones are based on the current ring tone set configured on the IP phone.
Notes:
The value of “N” in the above “hardkeyN” parameters corresponds to the hard key’s mapping number as per the
“6867i Hard Key Mapping figure.
Hard keys 1 to 4 can be remapped to any key type. If applicable, LED indication will follow the colour/cadence of the
corresponding feature when the key is reprogrammed.
Hard keys 8, 9, and 10 can be remapped to any key type except for the following: Line, BLF, BLF/List, Auto Call Distri-
bution, and BLF/Xfer.
If a hard key is configured with the type “None, functionality of the hard key (and its corresponding LED) is disabled.
Misconfiguration of the hard key will result in the key going back to its default function. For example, reprogramming
hard key 3 (Redial) to
hardkey3 type: line
hardkey3 line: 33
will result in hard key 3 reverting back to its default Redial functionality as the “hardkey3 line: 33” definition is invalid.

Customizing the Key Type List in the Aastra Web UI
An Administrator can configure which key types display in the Aastra Web UI list for a Softkey, Programmable Key, Expan-
sion Module Key, and/or Feature Key (CT Models). Currently, in the Aastra Web UI for a phone, you can select a type of key
from a list of more than 20 key types to assign to a softkey, programmable key, expansion module key, and/or feature key.
Using the configuration files, you can specify key types to display in the key type list that apply to a User’s environment.
In addition to being able to specify which key types display in the list, the Administrator can also determine in which order
the key types display.
You can use the following configuration file parameters to control which key types to display and specify in which order to
display them in:
softkey selection list
feature key selection list
If no value is specified for the “softkey selection list” and/or “feature key selection list” parameters, the key “Type” list dis-
plays all of the key types by default.
If an Administrator configures specific key types for a phone in the configuration file, and the phone for which he down-
loads the configuration to already has key types configured on it, those key types display in the key list for those keys, in
addition to the key types specified by the Administrator. For example, a phone has a Park key and a Pickup key already
configured on the phone, and the Administrator downloads a configuration file to the phone that has specific key types of
None, Line, Speeddial, and XML. After the configuration file is downloaded, the Park key list will show None, Line, Speed-
dial, XML, and Park; the Pickup key list will show None, Line, Speeddial, XML, and Pickup; all other keys that were config-
ured as None before the download will show only None, Line, Speeddial, and XML.
Customizing the Key Type List Using the Configuration Files
Use the following procedure to configure the Key Type List that displays in the Aastra Web UI.
Notes:
Any key types configured that do not apply to the phone are ignored.
The SAVE and DELETE keys appear by default as Keys 1 and 2 on the 6753i and 9143i, and as Keys 5 and 6 on the 6730i
and 6731i, unless your Administrator configured these keys as other functions.
An Administrator must use the English value when configuring the key types in the configuration files.
After configuring specific key types for a phone, the key types in the Aastra Web UI display the same for both the User
and Administrator Web interfaces for that phone.

Speeddial Prefixes
The normal function of the Speeddial option allows you to configure a specific key on the phone to dial a number
quickly by pressing the configured key. For example, if you had the following Speeddial configuration in the configura-
tion files:
softkey1 type: speeddial
softkey1 label: Office
softkey1 value: 5552345
softkey1 line: 1
after you press softkey1 on the phone, it dials the Office number at 555-2345 on line 1.
A new feature for the Speeddial option allows you to configure a preset string of numbers followed by a “+”. This feature
allows the phone to speeddial a prefix number and then pause to let you enter the remaining phone number. You can
use this feature for numbers that contain long prefixes. For example, if you had the following Speeddial configuration in
the configuration files:
softkey2 type: speeddial
softkey2 label: Europe Office
softkey2 value: 1234567+
softkey2 line: 2
after you press softkey2 on the phone, it dials the prefix number automatically and pauses for you to enter the remaining
number using the keypad on the phone.
You can configure the Speeddial prefix using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.
Enabling/Disabling Ability to Add or Edit a Speeddial Key
The IP Phones allow you to set a parameter, “speeddial edit” using the configuration files that allows you to enable or
disable the ability to add a Speeddial key or edit a Speeddial key from the IP Phone UI. Disabling this parameter prevents
a user from adding or editing a Speeddial key.
The default for this parameter is enabled, allowing you to create and edit Speeddial keys on the phone using the Press-
and-hold feature, softkeys, programmable keys, expansion module keys and key pad, Speeddial menu in the IP Phone UI,
and the SAVE TO key.
If this parameter is set to disabled, it blocks the user from using any of the features on the phone to create or edit a
Speeddial key.
Enabling/Disabling the Ability to Add or Edit a Speeddial Key Using the Configuration Files
Use the following procedure to enable/disable the ability to add and edit a Speeddial key.
Busy Lamp Field (BLF)
The BLF feature on the IP phones allows a specific extension to be monitored for state changes. BLF monitors the status
(busy or idle) of extensions on the IP phone.
Configuration Files
For specific parameters you can set in the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section, “” on pageA-191.
Note:
BLF feature availability is dependant on your call manager.
Operational Features
41-001343-02 REV04 – 05.2014 5-129
Example
A Supervisor configures BLFs on his phone for monitoring the status of a workers phone use (busy or idle). When the
worker picks up his phone to make a call, a busy indicator on the Supervisor’s phone shows that the workers phone is in
use and busy.
BLF Setting
(For use with Asterisk and sipXecs servers)
On 8 and 11-Line LCD phones, the busy and idle indicators show on the IP phone screen display next to the softkey or pro-
grammable key configured for BLF functionality. When the monitored user is idle, an icon with the handset on-hook
shows next to the BLF softkey or programmable key. When the monitored user is on an active call, a small telephone icon
is shown with the handset off-hook.
On 3-Line LCD phones, the LED lights next to each BLF programmable key illuminate steady to indicate the monitored line
is off-hook or unregistered. The LED goes off when the line is idle.
On the 6739i , the busy and idle states are indicated by icons as well as by the color of the softkey button on screen (i.e. red
for busy, black for idle).
On the 6867i, the busy and idle states are indicated by the color of the softkey button on screen (i.e. red for busy, green for
idle) as well as the LED indicators (i.e. solid for busy and off for idle).
You can configure a BLF key on the IP Phones using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.
BLF/List Setting
(For use with the BroadSoft Broadworks Rel 13 or higher platform only)
The BLF/List feature on the IP phones is specifically designed to support the BroadSoft Broadworks Rel 13 Busy Lamp Field
feature. This feature allows the IP phone to subscribe to a list of monitored users defined through the BroadWorks web
portal.
In addition to monitoring the idle and busy state, the BLF/List feature also supports the ringing state. When the monitored
user is idle, there is a small telephone icon shown with the handset on-hook. When the monitored user is in ringing state,
there is a small bell icon shown. When the monitored user is on an active call then a small telephone icon is shown with
the handset off-hook.
On 3-Line LCD phones, the LED lights next to each BLF programmable key illuminate steady to indicate the monitored line
is off-hook or unregistered. The LED goes off when the is idle. When the monitored extension is ringing, the LED flashes.
You can configure a BLF/List key on the IP Phones using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI. You can also specify a
BLF list URI that the phone uses to access the required BLF list. You can specify a BLF List URI using the “list uri” parameter
in the configuration files or the BLF List URI field in the Aastra Web UI at the path Operation->Softkeys/Programmable
Keys/Expansion Module Keys->Services->BLF List URI. For more information about the “list uri” parameter, see Appendix A,
the section, “BLF List URI Settings on page A-192.
Note:
You can configure a maximum of 50 BLFs on the M670i, and M675i Expansion Modules. You can configure a maximum
of 48 BLFs on the M680i Expansion Modules.
Note:
The Broadworks BLF feature is not the same as the Broadworks Shared Call Appearance (SCA) feature and does not per-
mit call control over the monitored extension.
Note:
On the 6739i, you can configure a BLF/List softkey using the IP Phone UI also. For more information, see the Aastra
Model 6739i IP Phone User Guide.

Example
A receptionist has a 6757i running Broadsoft firmware that subscribes to a list of extensions from the BroadWorks Appli-
cation Server. Each monitored extension in the list shows up individually on the 6757i screen next to a softkey button.
The softkey icons on the screen change depending on the state of the extensions.
On 3-Line LCD phones running Broadsoft firmware, the programmable key LEDs illuminate either flashing, solid, or turn
off depending on the state of those extensions.
On the 6739i , the BLF states are indicated by icons as well as by the color of the softkey button on screen (red for busy,
flashing red for ringing, and black for idle).
On the 6867i, the BLF states are indicated by the color of the softkey button on screen (red of busy, yellow for ringing,
and green for idle) as well as the LED indicators (i.e. solid for busy, flashing for ringing, and off for idle).
Asterisk BLF Configuration
You can enable the BLF feature on Asterisk to enable monitoring for specific extensions. BLF on Asterisk is possible
through the “hint” extension parameter.
Add the following in the Asterisk extensions.conf file for each target extension being monitored.
For example:
exten -> 9995551212,hint,SIP/9995551212
Add the following in the Asterisk sip.conf file for each subscriber if it is not defined already.
For example:
[9995551212]
Subscribecontext=sip
BroadSoft BLF Configuration
You can enable the BLF feature on BroadSoft BroadWorks Rel 13 or higher through the BroadWorks Web Portal. Each
user must have the Busy Lamp Field service enabled for their user. The user must add each desired extension to the
“Monitored Users List” on the Busy Lamp Field service page and also enter in a list name for the monitored users BLF list
on the same page.
Changes to the “Monitored Users List” are dynamic and the Aastra IP phones are automatically updated without requir-
ing a restart.

BLF Page Switch Feature
A new features enables the 6735i, 6737i, 6739i, 6755i, 6757i, 6757i CT, and 6867i model phones to automatically switch
the screen focus to a softkey page or M675i expansion module page that has an active Busy Lamp Field (BLF or BLF/List
key(s). Administrators can configure this feature using the “blf activity page switch” parameter.
If this parameter is set to “1”, the screen will switch to a softkey page or an M675i expansion module page if a monitored
extension transitions to a ringing (fast flashing) state. If this parameter is set to “2”, the screen will switch if a monitored
extension transitions to either a ringing (fast flashing) or a hold (slow flashing) state. Finally, if this parameter is set to “3”,
the screen will switch if a monitored extension transitions to either a ringing or hold state OR from an idle (off) state to
an “in call” (solid) state.
The following can be observed with this new feature:
If there is a lot of activity on the monitored extensions, the page will be shown on the screen for at least 5 seconds
before switching again. When a user manually scrolls the pages by pressing the More key or the Function key (for the
page you want to display) on the M675i, no activity-triggered page flipping should occur for 5 seconds after the man-
ual switch.
If the phone softkeys are hidden by an overlay screen, such as an XML UI object, a menu (e.g. the Services, Directory,
or Callers List menu), or if the phone is in an active call, the screen will not automatically switch focus to a softkey page
with BLF activity (it will however for an expansion module page).
When the phone is in Idle mode, the menu switches to the page with the BLF key when there is an incoming call to the
monitored extension. The page is shown for 10 seconds if the call is answered. If the call is not answered by the BLF
extension, the BLF key page will be shown as long as ringing is ongoing.
When the BLF key page is shown and there is another incoming call on another BLF key on the same page, the new
call is also shown on this BLF key.
When the BLF key page is shown and there is another incoming call on another BLF key on another page, the switch
to the other page will be done after 10 seconds.
When the BLF key page is shown and there are several more incoming calls on BLF keys, after 10 seconds the next
active BLF key will be shown in the key number order.

Notes:
To minimize the chance of a lot of switching between the Idle screen and the page(s) with BLF keys, it is recom-
mended to have the BLF keys with most frequent traffic on one page. If the expansion module has several BLF keys,
it is recommended to use an extra display panel unit.
The IP phones (as well as the M675i Expansion Module) will automatically switch to the idle page (or the first page on
the M675i Expansion Module) if no BLF activity is detected by the phone.

Configuring BLF Page Switch
Use the following procedures to configure the BLF page switch feature on the IP phone.
Configurable Display for Blank BLF/List Softkeys
When softkeys for the 6735i, 6737i, 6755i, 6757i, 6757i CT model phones and the M675i Expansion Module are configured
as BLF/List keys on the phone but there are not enough members in the BLF/List on the Broadsoft server side, then a series
of question marks are displayed on screen beside some of the softkeys.
Administrators can configure whether or not the series of question marks should be hidden using the “keys noname hid-
den” parameter. If this parameter is set to “1” (enabled) then the series of question marks will be hidden and nothing will
be shown on the screen beside the affected softkeys. If this parameter is set to “0” (disabled) then the series of question
marks will be displayed on the screen indicating blank BLF/List softkeys.
Configuring the Display for Blank BLF/List Softkeys
Use the following procedure to configure the display for blank BLF/List softkeys:
Ring Signal Type for BLF
There is a global parameter “play a ring splash” that controls whether or not a ring splash is played when there is an
incoming call on a Busy Lamp Field (BLF) monitored extension. For the 6739i, 6755i, 6757i, and 6757i CT IP phones, you
can configure the phone to play the ring splash when idle only or when idle and also in an active call state. For all other
phones, the ring splash can only be configured to play when in an idle state.
In addition to this global ring splash control, administrators can control the ring splash alert pattern on a per key basis.
Each type of key can have a different ring splash alerting pattern and volume. When the phone UI receives the event
update from the line manager for BLF transitions to ringing state, the ring splash value is checked to take the appropriate
action.
The following alerting patterns are available for all IP phones:
0: Silence (ring splash off).
1: Normal (same as current BLF ring splash).
2: Normal delayed (After a delay of [x] seconds, the ring signal that is the same as the current BLF ring splash is played
[use the “ring splash delay” parameter to define the delay]).
3: Periodic (similar to the normal ring signal that is used by the phone itself. The actual ring melody is based on the cur-
rent melody set for the line to which the BLF key is associated [use the “ring splash frequency” parameter to define

For the 6739i, 6755i, 6757i, and 6757i CT IP phones, the additional alerting patterns are available:
7: The behavior is determined by the global parameter “play a ring splash”.
If “play a ring splash” is defined as 0 then the feature is disabled.
If “play a ring splash” is defined as 1 then the behavior is the same as Normal.
If “play a ring splash” is defined as 2 the the behavior is the same as Normal but the ring splash plays when idle
and also during the active call state.
8: In call delayed (same as Normal delayed but ring splash plays when idle and also during the active call state [use the
ring splash delay” parameter to define the delay]).
9: In call periodic (same as Periodic but ring splash plays when idle and also during the active call state [use the “ring
splash frequency” parameter to define the frequency interval).
10: In call periodic delayed (same as Periodic delayed but ring splash plays when idle and also during the active call
state [use the “ring splash frequency” parameter to define the frequency interval and the ring splash delay” param-
eter to define the delay]).
11: In call low volume (same as Low volume but ring splash plays when idle and also during the active call state).
12: In call low volume delayed (same as Low volume delayed but ring splash plays when idle and also during the active
call state [use the “ring splash delay” parameter to define the delay]).
The following parameters are available allowing administrators to set and pass the control of the ring splash to the key
(instead of the phone using the global “play a ring splash” parameter).

The per key settings overwrite the global setting (“play a ring splash” parameter) on the phone. If the global parameter is
disabled, a ring splash can still be enabled on a key basis. If the global parameter is enabled, all keys will have a ring splash
unless the value “0” is configured explicitly for a key.
The following table details the ring splash behavior in the different call states/events when the feature is enabled for active
calls states. The behavior is consistent for all audio sources and audio mode configurations.

Considerations
The following considerations must be taken into account when using this feature:
When a BLF softkeys ring splash parameter is dynamically changed , the change will not take effect until the BLF tar-
get becomes idle.
The playing of a ring splash will be postponed if it is not allowed to be played in the current state and will start playing
if the phone transitions to a state where the ring splash can be played. However, if the BLF target stops ringing before
the transition, the ring splash will not be played.
The playing of a delayed ring splash will be postponed until the delay expires. However, if the BLF target stops ringing
before the delay expires, the ring splash will not be played.
In scenarios where the BLF target goes into the ringing state while an initial in-call ring splash is playing or while a call
hold or call waiting reminder is playing, the secondary in-call ring splash will be played 500ms after the current event
has ended. The inverse is also true whereby call hold or call waiting reminders will be played 500ms after the BLF ring
splash, if they occur while a BLF ring splash is playing.
In scenarios where multiple keys are configured for periodic ring splashes and multiple BLF targets are ringing, only
one periodic ring splash for one target will be played.
While on an active call, if the “ring audibly enable” parameter is enabled and a call is incoming while a periodic ring
splash is playing, the periodic ring splash will stop allowing the incoming call’s ring tone to be played, and then
resume after the incoming call’s ring tone has ended.
Configuring Ring Splash Settings
Use the following parameters to configure the ring splashsettings:
Ring Signal Type for BLF/List
Administrators can also control whether or not a ring tone is played when there is an incoming call on a BLF/List-moni-
tored extension. Each BLF/List-monitored extension can be individually configured to play one of five different ring
tones (or to play none at all).
After configuring the BLF/List URI and BLF/List keys, you can enable ring tone playback on the BLF/List-monitored exten-
sions by defining the existing “play a ring splash” parameter as “1” in the respective configuration file.
Additionally, the following “ring splash” parameters can be used to control which specific ring tone is played (depend-
ing on the type of key for which BLF/List functionality is configured):
softkeyN ring splash
prgkeyN ring splash
topsoftkeyN ring splash
expmodX keyN ring splash
Initiating a direct call pickup of the BLF target No ring splash played.
Initiating a speed dial of the BLF target No ring splash played.
Configuration Files
To set the ring splash on a per key basis in the configuration files for BLF, see Appendix A, the sections “Ring Splash Settings” on pageA-193.
Note:
The “play a ring splash” parameter is not dynamic. Changes to this parameter will take effect only after the phone has

Considerations
When using this feature the following must be taken into consideration:
If there is an incoming call on a BLF/List-monitored extension, the corresponding ring tone will play only if all of the reg-
ular lines are in an idle or hold state and both paging and conf/xfer is not active.
The BLF/List-related ring tone will stop playing if a regular line starts dialing, starts ringing, is unheld, or if paging is acti-
vated. The BLF/List-related ring tone will resume when the phone is in an idle state and paging is not active.
If multiple BLF/List-monitored extensions are ringing simultaneously, they are placed in a queue based on the ringing
start time and priority is given to the extension that rang first. For example, if BLF/List is configured for extension 1,
extension 2, and extension 3, and all three receive incoming calls in sequence, the phone will play the ring tone for
extension 1. If ringing stops for extension1, ringing will begin for extension 2, and so on.
Call waiting tone playback behavior for BLF/List-monitored extensions is based on the same rules as regular lines, but
the call waiting tone for BLF/List-monitored extensions will also be played/stopped when paging is activated/deacti-
vated.
Note:
Ring tones are based on the current ring tone set configured on the IP phone.

BLF/Xfer and Speeddial/Xfer Keys
The IP Phones have a transfer (Xfer) enhancement feature you can use with the BLF and Speeddial keys - BLF/Xfer and
Speeddial/Xfer.
The BLF key allows one or more extensions to be monitored, and once there is any state change with those extensions, the
key shows the status of the monitored lines. The Xfer key allows a call to be transferred to other recipients blindly or con-
sultatively.
The Speeddial key allows a number to be dialed quickly by pressing one key configured for speeddialing. After answering
a call, the recipient can transfer the call to an extension by:

Operational Features
5-140 41-001343-02 REV04 – 05.2014
The BLF and Speeddial transfer enhancement feature provides a simpler way of transferring calls using the keys called
BLF/Xfer and Speeddial/Xfer. The BLF/Xfer key combines the BLF and Xfer key's functionality together allowing the
user to transfer calls or use BLF with one key. Similarly, the Speeddial/Xfer key combines the Speeddial key and Xfer
key's functionality together allowing the user to press one key to speeddial and transfer calls.
BLF/Xfer Key Requirements and Functionality
BLF/Xfer and BLF
A BLF/Xfer key can be configured for subscribing to an extension and monitor the status of the extension, similar to
the BLF key functionality. Changes of the state of the monitored extension are indicated by a LED / Icon.
BLF/Xfer and Blind Transfer Calls
When the focused line is in the Connected” state, pressing the BLF/Xfer key transfers the call to the extension uncon-
ditionally, disregarding the status of the monitored extension.
If transferring a call to an extension fails, a message “Transfer Failed” displays on the phone, and you can reconnect the
call (get the call back) by pressing the line key again.
BLF/Xfer and Call forward
When the focused line is in the “Ringing” state, pressing the BLF/Xfer key forwards the call to the extension uncondi-
tionally, disregarding the status of the monitored extension.
BLF/Xfer and Speeddial
When the focused line and the monitored extension are idle, pressing the BLF/Xfer key causes the phone to go off-
hook and dial the number of the extension.
Speeddial/Xfer Key Requirements and Functionality
The Speeddial/Xfer key has the following capabilities:
Speeddial/Xfer and Speeddial
When the phone is in the “Idle” state, pressing the Speeddial/Xfer key causes the phone to go offhook and dial the
predefined extension.
Speeddial/Xfer and Blind Transfer
When the phone is connected to a call, pressing the Speeddial/Xfer key blind transfers the call to the predefined tar-
get.
If transferring a call fails, a message “Transfer Failed” displays, and you can reconnect the call (get the call back) by
pressing the line key again.
Speeddial/Xfer and Call Forward
When the phone is in the “Ringing” state, pressing the Speeddial/Xfer key forwards the call to the predefined exten-
sion.
Note:
It is recommended that you enable the “switch focus to ringing” parameter when using the BLF and Speeddial Trans-
fer key feature. For more information about this parameter, see “Switch Focus to Ringing Line on page5-64.

dial key using the Aastra Web UI. Use the following procedure to configure BLF/Xfer and/or Speeddial/Xfer.
Speeddial/Conference Key
The IP Phones allow you to configure a softkey/programmable key/expansion module key to be used as a Speeddial
Conference key (Speeddial/Conf key) while remaining in the current call. This key allows a user on a call, to conference
another party at a pre-defined number while remaining in the conference call.
For example, while on an active call, a user can use the Speeddial/Conf key to dial a recording service and have the result-
ing conference recorded.
How it Works
If you configure a softkey/programmable key/expansion module as a Speeddial/Conf key, and you press this key while
on an active call, the focused line changes to the dialing line. A Cancel softkey displays on the phone (only those phones
that have LCDs larger then 3 lines), allowing you to abort the conference speeddial if required. The message "Ringing..."
displays below the number when the far end is ringing. The message "Conf. Unavailable" briefly displays when a confer-
ence is already in progress or when the CT handset is in use. The active call is not put on hold when the speeddial
number is dialed.

Speeddial/MWI Key
Multiple voicemail registration is supported on the IP phones. This feature can be useful in scenarios where a user needs to
monitor the voicemail accounts of his/her team members or an assistant requires access to his/her managers voicemail
messages.
By configuring a softkey, programmable key, or expansion module softkey as Speeddial/MWI and defining call and voice-
mail URIs, users can monitor and listen to pending messages on multiple voicemail accounts. When new messages are
pending on a monitored voicemail account the corresponding Speeddial/MWI key’s LED will blink and the UI (for softkeys)
will display an envelope icon and the number of pending messages beside the defined label.
When a user presses the softkey, the phone will send an INVITE to the configured call URI whereby the user will be able to
listen to the new messages.
Users can configure the Speeddial/MWI key through the Aastra Web UI while Administrators can configure the key
through the Aastra Web UI as well as the configuration files.
Configuring the Speeddial/MWI Key Using the Configuration Files
To configure the Speeddial/MWI key using the configuration files, you must enter “speeddialmwi” for the key type. For the
label, enter a key label to assign to the Speeddial/MWI key (e.g. Peter). For the value, enter in the call URI and voicemail URI
separated by a semi-colon, as per the following syntax: [call URI];[voicemail URI]. For example:
+33123456,,,3456#0000#@domain;sip:voicemail_peter@domain
For the line, enter the line for which you want to use the key functionality (e.g. 1 through 9).
The following parameters are examples you can use to configure the Speeddial/MWI key using the configuration files:

Automatic Call Distribution (ACD) (for Sylantro Servers)
The IP phones support an Automatic Call Distribution (ACD) feature for Sylantro servers. The ACD feature allows the
Sylantro server to distribute calls from a queue to registered IP phone users (agents).
To use the ACD feature on an IP phone, the administrator must first configure an ACD softkey or programmable key. When
an IP phone user wants to subscribe to a queue (in order to receive incoming calls), the user presses the ACD key. The IP
phone UI prompts the user to log in.
When the IP phone user is ready to receive calls from the server, the user logs into a queue. Depending on the server con-
figuration, the IP phone is either in an “unavailable” or “availablestate. If the phone is set to “available” then the server
begins to distribute calls to this phone immediately. If the phone is set to unavailable, then server waits until the IP phone
user manually changes the phone status to “available(using the IP phone UI) before distributing calls.
Whenever the IP phone user answers a call, or misses a call, the server automatically changes the phone’s status to unavail-
able. The server updates it database with this new information and no longer distributes calls to this phone. The IP phone
will remain in this state until:
the IP phone user makes himself “available” again.
the ACD auto-availability timer expires. This occurs only if the administrator has configured an ACD auto-availability
timer as described in ACD Auto-Available Timer” on page5-147.
The IP phone user can also choose to manually change the phone status to unavailable, using the IP Phone UI.
ACD Auto-Available Timer
Whenever the IP phone user answers a call, or misses a call, the server automatically changes the phone’s status to unavail-
able. The administrator can control how long the IP phone remains in the unavailable state by configuring an auto-availa-
ble timer. When the timer expires, the IP phone status is automatically changed to available. The default setting for the
timer is 60 seconds.
You use the following parameters to configure an ACD Auto-Available Timer in the configuration files:
acd auto available
acd auto available timer
Configuring an Automatic Call Distribution (ACD) Key
You can configure an ACD key on softkeys, programmable keys, and extension module keys.
The following table illustrates examples of configuring an ACD key on the phone.
Note:
It is recommended you configure no more than a single ACD softkey or programmable key per IP phone.
Note:
On the 6739i, you can configure an ACD softkey using the IP Phone UI also. For more information, see the Aastra Model
6739i IP Phone User Guide.

Configuring the ACD Auto-Available Timer Using the Aastra Web UI
Use the following procedure to configure an ACD auto-available timer using the Aastra Web UI.
Using the ACD Feature on your IP Phone
The ACD feature allows you to login to a phone queue in order to receive distributed calls on your IP phone. To login to a
phone queue, your system administrator must preconfigure an ACD softkey or programmable key on your Aastra IP
phone.
For models 8 and 11-Line LCD phones, the ACD softkey is labeled according to your network requirements. Check with
your administrator to verify the label assigned to the ACD softkey on your IP phone. The label usually describes which
phone queue you are accessing when you press the ACD softkey.
For example, suppose the administrator wants to configure an ACD softkey to allow an IP phone user to log into the Cus-
tomer Support phone queue. The administrator assigns the label “Support” to the softkey, so it is easily recognizable to
the IP phone user. When the IP phone user wants to subscribe to the Customer Support queue, the user presses the Sup-
port key and can log in.
Once logged in to the queue, you can make yourself “available” or “unavailable” to take calls by pressing the Availa-
ble/Unavailable key on the phone UI. The server monitors your IP phone status. When you set the IP phone to “available,
the server begins distributing calls to your phone. When you set the IP phone to “unavailable,” the server temporarily stops
distributing calls to your phone.
The icon that appears next to the ACD softkey or programmable key on the IP Phone UI reflects your current status. In the
example shown below, the icon shows the current status of this IP phone user as “logged off.
This icon changes when you log on to the phone queue and are available to take calls. The icon changes again when you
are busy with an active call.
The table below describes the meaning of the LED, and each icon, as they may appear on your IP phone:
Aastra Web UI
1. Click on Basic Settings->Preferences->Auto Call Distribution Settings.
2. In theAuto Available” check-box, click Enabled.
3. In the Auto Available Timer field, specify the length of time (in seconds) before the IP phone state is automatically reset to “available.
Valid values are 0 to 120 seconds. Default is 60.

Logging In to a Phone Queue
Use the following procedure to log into a phone queue from your Aastra IP phone.
ACD Subscription Period
On the IP phones, you can set the time period, in seconds, that the IP phone resubscribes the ACD subscription service
after a software/firmware upgrade or after a reboot of the IP phone.
In the configuration files, you enter the following parameter with a valid value to set the ACD subscription period:
sip acd subscription period: <value in seconds>
The minimum value for this 120 seconds (2 minutes).
The default is 3600 (1 hour).
Setting this parameter to a value lower than 3600 allows the configured ACD feature to become active more quickly after
a software/firmware upgrade or after a reboot of the IP phone. If you enter a value lower than 120 for this parameter, the
default value (3600) will be used by the IP phone.
You can configure this feature using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.
Configuring ACD Subscription Period
Use the following procedures to configure the ACD subscription period on the IP phone.
IP Phone UI
1. Press the ACD key on your IP phone.
Note:
Check with your administrator to verify the label assigned to the ACD softkey on your IP phone.
The login screen appears. In this example, the ACD softkey accesses the Customer Support phone queue and is labelled “Support.
2. Press the Log In softkey.
You are logged into the phone queue. Once you log in, examine the IP Phone UI, and note the following information:
If your IP phone status is set to “available” then the server will begin to distribute phone calls from this queue to your IP phone.
If your IP phone status remains “unavailable” after you log in, then you must manually change the state to “available” in order to start
receiving calls.
To temporarily stop receiving calls, you can switch the IP phone status to “unavailable.
While you are on a call (or miss a call that has been distributed to your IP phone), your IP phone status automatically switches to “unavailable.
Your IP phone remains in the unavailable state until one of the following things occur:
You use the IP Phone UI to manually switch the IP phone state back to available, or
The availability “timer” for your IP phone expires. This only occurs if your administrator has configured an auto-availability timer on your
IP phone.
3. To Log out of the queue, select Log Out. The server no longer distributes phone calls to your IP phone.

Bridged Line Appearance (BLA)
A SIP bridge line appearance (BLA) on the IP phones allows multiple devices to share a single directory address (DA).
For example, people working at a technical support department could be located in different places. If their desktop
phones are configured for BLA DA, when customer calls come in, all the phones with the BLA DA would ring but the call
can only be answered by one of them.
Once the call is answered, the rest of the phones reflect the status of the call. If the call was put on "hold" by the original
recipient, any one from the group can pick up the call.
You can apply BLA on the IP phones as follows:
As a single BLA group - One BLA DA is shared among multiple phones. Only one phone at a time can pick up an
incoming call or initiate an outgoing call on the BLA DA. All phones reflect the usage of the BLA DA. If the call is put on
"hold", any one from the group can pick up the "held" call.
As a multiple BLA group - On one single phone, multiple BLA DA can be associated with different line appearances.
Every BLA DA is independent from each other and follows the same rules as "a single BLA group".
As multiple instances of a BLA DA - A "x-line-id" parameter was defined in draft-anil-sipping-bla-02.txt to present
the incoming call to or place an outgoing call on the specified line appearance instance. The parameter is carried in
"Alert-Info" header field over the request-URI (INVITE e.g.) or in the NOTIFY messages to report the status of a dialog.
BLA DA can be configured on a global basis or on a per-line basis on the IP phones using the Aastra Web UI or the config-
uration files.
The following table shows the number of lines that can be set to BLA for each model phone.
Configuring BLA
You can configure BLA on a global or per-line basis using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.
Note:
This feature is dependent on the IP telephony system to which the IP phone is registered and according to draft-anil-

Sylantro servers and ININ servers require specific configuration methods for per-line configurations.
For Sylantro Server
When configuring the BLA feature on a per-line basis for a Sylantro server, the value set for the "sip lineN bla number"
parameter shall be the same value set for the "sip lineN user name" parameter for all the phones in the group. For exam-
ple, if sip lineN user name is 1010, you would configure BLA on a per-line basis for the Sylantro server as follows:
sip line 1 mode: 3
sip line1 user name: 1010 (# for all the phones)
sip line1 bla number: 1010
For ININ Server
When configuring the BLA feature on an ININ server, the value set for the sip lineN bla number parameter shall be the
same value set for the sip lineN user name parameter without the incremented digit added to the phone #. For example, if
the sip lineN user name for the first phone is 10101, and the sip lineN user name for the second phone is 10102, etc., you
would configure BLA on a per-line basis for the ININ server as follows:
(# for phone 1 with appearance of phone 3)
sip line1 mode: 3
sip line1 user name: 10101 sip line1 bla number: 1010

BLA Subscription Period
The IP Phones include a SIP BLA subscription period parameter that allows an Administrator to set the amount of time,
in seconds, of the BLA subscription period.
If this parameter is set to zero (0), the phone uses the value specified for the BLA expiration in the subscribe message
received from the server. If no value is specified in the Subscribe message received from the server, the phone uses the
default value of 300 seconds.
You can configure this parameter using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.

Using a BLA Line on the IP Phone
If you have either a global or per-line BLA configuration, and you want to share a call on the line with a BLA group, you
need to press the Hold button before sharing the call with the group.
For example, if line 1 is configured for BLA, and you pick up a call on line 1, you must press the Hold button to share the call
with the BLA group.
If you pick up a call on line 1 configured for BLA, and another call comes in on line 2, you can pick up line 2 without putting
line 1 on hold. The line 1 call will be on hold automatically; however it is on hold locally only. The line 1 call cannot be
shared with the BLA group.
BLA Support for Third-Party Registration
BLA allows an Address Of Record (AOR) to be assigned onto different line appearances for a group of SIP user agents (IP
phones). When a call is made to this BLA number, the call is offered to all user agents that have mapping to this BLA. To
support this, the IP phones need to support third party registration for the BLA along with the registration for its own pri-
mary appearance number. If the IP phone has the primary appearance as a BLA, then there is no need for third party regis-
tration.
When configuring the BLA feature on a per-line basis for third party registration and subscription, the third party name
must be configured using the “sip lineN bla number” parameter. For third party registration to work effectively, one of
the lines should register as generic with its own username.
For example, Bob has Alice’s appearance on his phone. Bobs configuration is as follows:
#line 1 Bob
sip line1 auth name:4082272203
sip line1 password:
sip line1 mode: 0
sip line1 user name:4082272203
sip line1 display name:Bob
sip line1 screen name:Bob
#line 2 Alice
sip line2 auth name:4082272203
sip line2 password:
#BLA mode 3
sip line2 mode: 3
sip line2 user name:4082272203
#Alice phone number
sip line2 bla number:4085582868
sip line2 display name:Alice
sip line2 screen name:Alice
Alice’s configuration is as follows:
#line 1
sip line1 auth name:4085582868
sip line1 password:
sip line1 mode: 3
sip line1 user name:4085582868
sip line1 display name: Alice
sip line1 screen name: Alice
Note:
The Hold button must be pressed for a call on a BLA line to be shared with the BLA group.

P-Preferred Identity Header for BLA Accounts
The IP Phones support the BLA specification, draft-anil-sipping-bla-02, which states that the P-Preferrred-Identity header
(RFC3325) gets added to the INVITE message to indicate the Caller-ID that is used for the call.
BLA Support for Message Waiting Indicator (MWI)
The IP Phones have an option for a Busy Line Appearance (BLA) configured line to send a SUBSCRIBE SIP message for a
Message Waiting Indicator (MWI).
You can configure this feature using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.
Limitations
The following are limitations of the BLA Support for MWI feature:
The phone shows MWI for the first matching identity if more than one line with different user names has the same BLA
account.
If a normal line has the same user name as the BLA user of another line, the phone shows MWI only for the normal line.
Configuring BLA Support for MWI Using the Configuration Files
Use the following procedure to configure BLA support for MWI.
Note:
The P-Preferred-Identity for BLA accounts is also sent for hold/unhold messages.
Notes:
If you change the setting on this parameter, you must reboot the phone for it to take affect.
Both the “sip explicit mwi subscription” and “sip mwi for bla account” parameters must be enabled in order for the
MWI subscription for BLA to occur.
The MWI re-subscription for the BLA account uses the value set for the "sip explicit mwi subscription period"
parameter to re-subscribe.
4.Whether or not the "sip mwi for bla account" parameter is enabled, the priority for displaying MWI does not
change.

Shared Call Appearance (SCA) Call Bridging
Shared Call Appearance (SCA) is when incoming calls are presented to multiple phones simultaneously. For example, it is
the ability to assign the boss' extension to a button on the secretary's phone. Calls can be transferred between two
phones with the same extension button by simply putting the call on hold at one phone and picking it up on the other.
Status LEDs light and flash in unison, allowing all people sharing the extension to see the status at a glance.
The IP Phones include an enhanced SCA for the servers that support call bridging and allows two or more SCA users to
be connected in a call with a third party.
Refer to the following example.
Using the example above, when a call comes into Phone 1, Phone 2 and Phone 3 can pickup the same call by pressing
the SCA line key. Phone 2 and 3 display the call they are bridging into on the LCD of the phones. Existing SCA parties in a
bridge or one-to-one call hear an audible beep when another party has joined the call.
If a phone is configured for SCA bridging and it attempts to join a call, but the account on the server does not have this
functionality enabled, an error message displays to the LCD on the phone.
The SCA call bridging feature is disabled by default on all phones. You can enable this feature on a global or per-line basis
using the configuration files only.
Keys States and LED Behavior
There are two new call states on the phones that support SCA bridging:
Bridge-active - A bridged call is in progress
Bridge-held - The 3rd-party (i.e., non-SCA party) in the bridge is on hold.
The following tables provide the key states and LED behavior in an SCA bridge call for users involved in an SCA call and
users not involved in the SCA call.
Note:
Enabling/disabling the beep is configurable on the server-side.
Note:
A “Call-Info” header is included in the requests as well as the 200ok response to an INVITE, RE-INVITE, and UPDATE mes-
sages for SCA lines.

Park/Pick Up Static and Programmable Configuration
The IP phones (including the CT handsets) have a park and pickup call feature that allows you to park a call and pickup a
call when required. Administrators can configure call park and pickup using a static configuration (for 8 and 11-Line LCD
phones) or by using a programmable configuration (3-Line, and 8 and 11-Line LCD phones).
Administrators can use configuration files or the Aastra Web UI to configure a park/pickup static or programmable config-
uration. Users can make changes to customize the label and the state of the park/pick up keys using the Web UI.
The IP phones support the Park/Pickup feature on the Asterisk, BroadWorks, Sylantro, and ININ PBX servers.
The following paragraphs describe the static and programmable configuration of the call park and pickup feature.
Park/Pickup Static Configuration
The static method configures park and pickup on a global basis for all supported IP phones. You can use the configuration
files or the Aastra Web UI to configure a park/pickup static configuration. In the configuration files, you use the following
parameters to statically configure park/pickup: “sprecode” and “pickupsprecode”.
In the Aastra Web UI, you use the following fields at Basic Settings -> Preferences to configure park/pickup statically:
Park Call
Pick Up Parked Call
How it Displays on the Phone
On the phone UI, the static configuration method displays the following:
When a call comes in and you pickup the handset, the default label of “Park” displays on the first screen of the phone UI.
After pressing the “Park” softkey to park the call, the default label of “Pickup” displays on the first screen of the phone
UI.
The values you enter for the Park/Pickup feature are dependant on your type of server. The following table provides the
values you enter for the “sprecode and “pickupsprecode parameters (configuration files), or "Park Call" and "Pickup
Parked Call" fields (Aastra Web UI).
Notes:
The 8 and 11-LCD phones accept both methods of configuration, however to avoid redundancy, Aastra recommends
you configure either a static configuration or a programmable configuration.
When using the IP phones with the BroadSoft BroadWorks call manager, an enhanced park/pickup configuration
method is also available to be used. For more details see “Enhanced Park/Pickup Configuration Method (BroadSoft
BroadWorks)” on page 5-185
Note:

Configuring Park/Pickup Key Using Configuration Files
In the configuration files, you configure the park/pickup keys using the key parameters. You also must specify the "sip
lineN park and pickup config” parameter. The following examples show park/pickup configurations using specific serv-
ers.
Examples for Models with 8 /11-Line LCDs as well as 6739i and 6867i
*When you configure a softkey as "Park", you must configure the state of the softkey as "connected".
**When you configure a softkey as "Pickup", you can configure the state of the softkey as "idle, outgoing", or just "idle", or
just "outgoing".
Note:
On the 9480i/9480i CT and 6757i/6757i CT, the old softkey labeled "Pickup" has been renamed to "Answer". This softkey
uses the old functionality - when you pickup the handset, you see a softkey labeled "Answer". You can then press this
key to pick up an incoming call. Do no confuse this feature with the new Park/Pickup configuration feature.

Call Park/Pickup Configuration Precedence Rule
For users upgrading from Release 2.x firmware, the "softkeyN value" parameter will be used if the "sip lineN park pickup
config" parameter is not set. If the per-line park pickup config parameter is set, the following precedence rule will apply:
For example, the following has been configured on the phone:
softkey1 type: park
softkey1 label: parkCall
softkey1 states: connected
softkey1 value: broadworks;*68
softkey2 type: pickup
softkey2 label: pickupCall
softkey2 states: idle, outgoing
softkey2 value: broadworks;*88
sip park pickup config: 70;70;asterisk
sip line1 park pickup config: *78;*98;broadworks
If the active call is using Line1, the phone will use the BroadWorks method for park (*78) and pickup (*98) since per-line
has the highest precedence.
If the active call is using any other line except Line1, the phone will use the Asterisk method for park (70) and pickup (70)
since it has precedence over the softkey value.

Using the Park Call/Pickup Parked Call Feature
Use the following procedures on the IP phones to park a call and pick up a parked call.
Enhanced Park/Pickup Configuration Method (BroadSoft BroadWorks)
As mentioned above, Administrators have a choice between two methods of Park/Pickup configuration: static configura-
tion or programmable configuration. With the static configuration method, Administrators are required to define the
sprecode” and “pickupsprecode” global configuration parameters (or alternatively define the “Park Call” and “Pickup
Parked Call” fields in the Aastra Web UI). By employing the static configuration method, the Park and Pickup keys are
automatically generated and displayed on the phone when the context presents itself (i.e. the Park key is presented during
an active call, and the Pickup key is presented when the call is parked). The benefit of this method is that individual Park
and Pickup keys do not have be defined. However, with this method, when the Park or Pickup key is pressed, the phone
seizes a secondary line to dial out using the Park or Pickup code.
With the programmable configuration method, Administrators are required to define thesip park pickup config” (glo-
bal) or “sip lineN park pickup config” (per line) configuration parameter (or alternatively define the “Park Pickup Config
field in the Aastra Web UI). By employing the programmable configuration method, individual Park and Pickup program-

Parking a Call
1. While on a live call, press the "Park" softkey.
2. Perform the following for your specific server:
If the call is parked successfully, the response is either a greeting voice confirming that the call was parked, or a hang up occurs. The parked
call party will get music on hold.
3. If the call fails, you can pick up the call (using the next procedure) and press the "Park" softkey again to retry step 2.
Picking up a Parked Call
4. Pick up the handset on the phone.
5. Enter the extension number where the call was parked.
6. Press the "Pickup" softkey.
If the call pick up is successful, you are connected with the parked call.
Notes:
Applicable to the 9840i, 9840i CT, 6735i, 6737i, 6755i, 6757i, and 6757i CT IP phones only.
This feature can only be configured for networks utilizing the BroadSoft BroadWorks call manager.
For Asterisk Server:
Server announces the extension number
where the call has been parked. Once the
call is parked, press the Goodbye key to
complete parking.
For BroadWorks Server:
After you hear the greeting from the Call-
Park server, enter the extension where
you want to park the call.
For Sylantro Server:
Enter the extension number where you
want to park the call, followed by "#" key.
For ININ PBX Server:
Enter the extension number where you
want to park the call, followed by "#" key.

mable keys/softkeys must be defined for the Park and Pickup keys to be displayed. However, the benefit of this method is
that the phone does not seize a secondary line to dial out the Park or Pickup code but instead utilizes a secondary call
appearance of the same line (i.e. a “hidden” or “virtual” line).
Administrators now can employ an enhanced method of configure park/pickup functionality for the 9840i, 9840i CT,
6735i, 6737i, 6755i, 6757i, and 6757i CT IP phones whereby the phone will automatically generate and display keys for
Park and Pickup functionality as per the static configuration method, but will use the SIP signalling behavior (i.e. a sec-
ondary call appearance of the same line) of the programmable configuration method.
This enhancement can be set using the configuration files by defining the “sprecode” and “pickupsprecode” parame-
ters in conjunction with the “sip park pickup config” (global) or “sip lineN park pickup config” (per line) configuration
parameters. For example:
sprecode: *68
pickupsprecode: *88
sip line1 park pickup config: *68;*88;broadworks
Predefining Dial Codes for Park/Pickup Programmable Configuration
Administrators can also predefine dial codes when configuring park/pickup functionality using the enhanced
park/pickup configuration method. Predefining dial codes can be useful for individuals (in scenarios where the
park/pickup extension is always be the same) or for deployments (in scenarios where all the extensions of the network
start with the same common leading numbers).
The configuration parameters “sip park pickup config” (global) and “sip lineN park pickup config(per line) now sup-
port the following enhanced syntax:
sip (lineN) park pickup config: <park_code>,<park_dial_code>;
<pickup_code>,<pickup_dial_code>;broadworks
For example, if the parameter is defined as:
sip (lineN) park pickup config: *68,4200#;*88,4200#;broadworks
the dial code 4200# will be automatically dialed out after the *68 park code is sent and the user is connected to the park-
ing orbit. Additionally, 4200# will be automatically dialed out after the *88 pickup code is sent and the user is connected
to the pickup orbit.
Pauses can also be introduced to the dial code by adding commas whereby each comma equates to a 500ms pause. For
example, if the parameter is defined as:
sip (lineN) park pickup config: *68,,,,,4200#;*88,,,,,4200#;broadworks
a two-second pause will be introduced before the each of the 4200# dial codes is dialed out.
Use Case Scenario
Take, for example, a BroadSoft BroadWorks-managed call network where the park/pickup extensions all start with the
first two digits 4 and 2 and the last two digits have a range from 00 to 99. Administrators can define thesip park pickup
config” parameter as:
sip park pickup config: *68,,,,,,,,,42;*88,,,,,,,,,42;broadworks
When a user is in an active call and presses the Park softkey, the active call will be placed on hold, the phone will dial *68
to connect to the parking orbit, wait four seconds (so that the user can hear the parking announcement from the call
manager), automatically send the park dial code of 42, and then at this time the user can enter the last two digits of the
parking extension to complete the call park.
When the user presses the Pickup softkey, the phone will dial out *88 to connect to the pickup orbit, wait four seconds,
automatically send the pickup dial code of 42, and then at this time the user can enter the last two digits of the pickup
extension to complete the call pickup.
Notes:
To set the enhancement using the Aastra Web UI the “Park Call” and “Pickup Parked Call” along with the “Park
Pickup Config” fields must be defined.
Programmable keys/softkeys do not need to be configured when utilizing this enhanced configuration method.

Last Call Return (lcr) (Sylantro Servers)
Last call return (lcr) allows an administrator or user to configure a "last call return" function on a softkey or programma-
ble key. This feature is for Sylantro servers only.
You can configure the “lcr” softkey feature via the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.
How it works
If you configure "lcr" on a softkey or programmable key, and a call comes into your phone, after you are finished with the
call and hangup, you can press the key configured for “lcr” and the phone dials the last call you received. When you con-
figure an “lcr” softkey, the label “LCR” displays next to that softkey on the IP phone. When the Sylantro server detects an
“lcr” request, it translates this request and routes the call to the last caller.

Call Forwarding
Call Forward (CFWD) on the IP phone allows incoming calls to be forwarded to another destination. The phone sends the
SIP message to the SIP proxy, which then forwards the call to the assigned destination.
An Administrator or User can configure CFWD on the phone-side by setting a mode for the phone to use (Account,
Phone, or Custom). Once the mode is set, you can use the IP Phone UI to use the CFWD feature at Options->Call Forward
or by pressing a configured Call Forward softkey/programmable key/extension module key.
The following describes the behavior for each CFWD mode.
Account mode - The account mode allows you to configure CFWD on a per account basis. Pressing a configured
CFWD key applies to the account in focus.
Phone mode - The Phone mode allows you to set the same CFWD configuration for all accounts (All, Busy, and/or No
Answer). When you configure the initial account, the phone applies the configuration to all other accounts. (In the
Aastra Web UI, only the account you configured is enabled. All other accounts are grayed out but set to the same con-
figuration.) Using the Aastra Web UI, if you make changes to that initial account, the changes apply to all accounts on
the phone.
Custom mode - The Custom mode allows you to configure CFWD for a specific account or all accounts. You can con-
figure a specific mode (All, Busy, and/or No Answer) for each account independently or all accounts. On 3-Line LCD
phones and the 6867i, you can set all accounts to ALL On or ALL Off. On the 8 and 11-Line LCD phones and the 6739i,
you can set all accounts to All On, All Off, or copy the configuration for the account in focus to all other accounts
using a CopytoAll softkey.
You can enable different call forwarding rules/modes independently (for example, you can set different phone numbers
for Busy, All, and NoAns modes and then turn them on/off individually).
The following table describes the key and Message Waiting Indicator (MWI) LEDs when you enable CFWD on the IP
Phone.
You can enable/disable CFWD and set a CFWD key using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI. You can set CFWD
mode (Account, Phone, Custom) using the configuration files, Aastra Web UI or IP Phone UI.
Important Notes
In the configuration files, the “call forward key modeparameter in the section, “Configuring Call Forwarding” on
page5-191 is in addition to the previous call forward parameter (call forward disabled). You can still use the previous
call forwarding parameter if desired in the configuration files.
In the IP Phone UI, you can access the Call Forwarding features at the path Options->Call Forward or by pressing a con-
figured CFWD key.
If you make changes to the configuration for CFWD via the IP Phone UI, you must refresh the Aastra Web UI screen to
see the changes.
Note:
If there is only one account configured on the phone, then the mode setting is ignored and the phone behaves as if the
mode was set to “Phone”.
Key LED Behavior for All Modes MWI LED Behavior for All Modes
CFWD key LED RED if any CFWD mode is enabled for the account in

4. In the “Call Forward Key Mode” field, select a call forward mode to use on the phone.
Valid values are: Account, Phone, Custom. Default is Account.
Account
The account mode allows you to configure CFWD on a per account basis. Pressing a configured CFWD key applies to the account in focus.
Phone
The Phone mode allows you to set the same CFWD configuration for all accounts (All, Busy, and/or No Answer). When you configure the
initial account, the phone applies the configuration to all other accounts. (In the Aastra Web UI, only the account you configured is ena-
bled. All other accounts are grayed out but set to the same configuration.) Using the Aastra Web UI, if you make changes to that initial
account, the changes apply to all accounts on the phone.
Custom
The Custom mode allows you to configure CFWD for a specific account or all accounts. You can configure a specific state (All, Busy, and/or
No Answer) for each account independently or all accounts. On 3-Line LCD phones, you can set all accounts to ALL On or ALL Off. On the
8 and 11-Line LCD phones, you can set all accounts to All On, All Off, or copy the configuration for the account in focus to all other
accounts using a CopytoAll softkey.
Notes:
If there is no CFWD key configured on the phone or it is removed, you can still set the CFWD modes via the IP Phone UI at the path Options-
>Call Forward.
If there is only one account configured on the phone, then the mode setting is ignored and the phone behaves as if the mode was set to
“Phone”.
When configuring a CFWD state (All, Busy, No Answer) for an account, you must configure a CFWD number for that state in order for the
state to be enabled.
5. Click Save Settings to save your changes.
The change takes effect immediately without a reboot.

Note:
If the BroadSoft BroadWorks Executive and Assistant Services feature is enabled and your phone is configured with the Assistant’s role, an
additional Forward Filtering option may be available on the Account Configuration page. For information on the BroadWorks Executive and
Assistant Services feature, refer to BroadSoft BroadWorks Executive and Assistant Services Feature on page 6-44. For details on how to con-
figure and utilize Forward Filtering, please refer to the respective phone model’s Aastra SIP IP Phone User Guide.
7. For each account, enable CFWD state by placing a check mark in one or more of the following “State” fields:
All
Busy
No Answer
The “All” option forwards all incoming calls for this account to the specified phone number regardless of the state of the phone. The phone
can be in the Busy or No Answer states, or can be in the idle state. The phone still forwards all calls to the specified number.
The “Busy” option call forwards incoming calls only if the account is in the busy state. The calls are forwarded to the specified phone number.
The “No Answer” option call forwards incoming calls only if the account rings but is not answered in the defined number of rings. The call
gets forwarded to the specified number.
Note:
You can use the “Busy” and “No Answer” states together using different forwarding phone numbers. If these states are enabled for an
account (the “All” state is disabled), and the phone is in the busy state when a call comes in, the phone can forward the call to the specified
phone number (for example, voicemail). If there is no answer on the phone after the specified number of rings, the phone can forward the
call to a different specified number, such as a cell phone number.
8. For each account, in the “Number” field, enter the phone number for which you want the incoming calls to forward to if the phone is in the
specified state.
If using theAccount” mode or “Custom” mode, you can enter different phone numbers for each account.
Notes:
If you selectedAccount” mode in step 4, you can enable/disable each account or all accounts as applicable. You can enter different phone
number for each enabled state.
If you selected “Custom” mode, you can enable/disable each account or all accounts as applicable. You can enter different phone numbers
for each enabled state.
If you selected “Phone” mode, all accounts are set to the same CFWD configuration (All, Busy, and/or No Answer) as Account 1 on the
phone. (In the Aastra Web UI, only Account 1 is enabled. All other accounts are grayed out but use the same configuration as Account 1.)
Using the Aastra Web UI, if you make changes to Account 1, the changes apply to all accounts on the phone. Using the IP Phone UI, if you
make changes to any other account other then Account 1, the changes also apply to all accounts on the phone. When enabling a CFWD
state, you must specify a phone number for the phone to CFWD to. The number you specify applies to all accounts of the same mode.
Number and name of accounts that display to this screen are dependant on the number and name of accounts configured on the phone.
In the screen in step 6, Screenname1 is configured on Line 1, Screenname2 is configured on Line 2, and Screenname3 is configured on Line
3. The name for the account is dependant on the name specified for the “Screen Name” parameter at the path Advanced Settings->LineN.
If you do not specify a value for the “Screen Nameparameter, the account name is based on the “Phone Number” parameter at the path
Advanced Settings->LineN. If neither the “Screen Name” nor the “Phone Number” parameters are specified, the account name shows “1”, “2”,
“3”, etc. only.

SIP Phone Diversion Display
When an outgoing call from the phone is being diverted to another destination (i.e. via call forward), the phone displays
the Caller ID (phone number and/or caller name) of the new destination and the reason for the call diversion. Similarly, at
the new destination, the Caller ID of the original call destination now displays
Call Diversion Example
You can enable or disable this feature on a global or per-line basis using the configuration files only.
Configuring SIP Diversion Display on the Phone
Use the following procedures to configure SIP diversion display on the IP phones.
Limitations
The diversion header assumes that the ID of the 'diverted' caller is passed in a URI style manner.
This feature relies on the server supporting and generating the Diversion header; the phone does not generate the
header itself.
Diversion header parameters such as counter, limit, privacy, screen, and extension are not recognized or supported by
the phone. However, they are still passed along during the diversion process.
Display Name Customization
By default, if the IP phone receives an incoming call and the number of the incoming call matches an entry in the local
directory, the IP phone will display the information stored in the local directory instead of the display name of the INVITE.
The “directory lookup suppression pattern” allows for the customization of the name displayed on the IP phones screen
and suppression of the local directory lookup.
1. Tim calls Mark at x400.
2. Mark’s phone is busy.
3. Marks phone diverts the incoming call to another destination (Roger @ x 464).
4. Tims phone displays name and extension of where the call is being diverted to and reason for diverting the call. The
screen scrolls between Screen 1 and Screen 2.
5. Rogers phone accepts the call and displays the name and number of the phone the incoming call (Tim) and the name
(or number) of the original destination (Mark). The screens scroll between Screen 1 and Screen 2.
Note:
If proxy servers exist in the network, it is possible that multiple diversions can take place on the phones. When multiple
diversion headers are returned in a single 302 response back to the originating phone, the phone that originated the
call (i.e., Tims phone in above example) displays the URI of the newest (first encountered) Diversion header, but dis-
plays the REASON of the oldest (last encountered) Diversion Header. The phone that receives the diverted call (i.e.,
Rogers phone in example above) displays the information of the oldest diverted call (last encountered).
Configuration Files
For specific parameters you can set in the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section, “SIP Diversion Display” on pageA-132.
Operational Features
5-222 41-001343-02 REV04 – 05.2014
This parameter is useful in such cases where a call manager will intentionally modify the display name according to a
specific scenario. For example, if a Manager forwards an incoming call to an employee, the call manager may modify the
display name to state “--> [Managers Name] Caller’s Name”. With the “directory lookup suppression pattern” parame-
ter configured for “-->” pattern matching, the IP phone will bypass the local directory lookup and the phones screen will
display the call as intended by the call manager.
Pattern Rules and Syntax
The customized display name must start with the pattern. The patterns that can be configured include the following reg-
ular expressions:
“-->x+”
“==>x+”
“@@@x+”
aaax+”
Additionally, the pattern syntax supports the regular expression | to specify multiple OR combined patterns (e.g. “--
>x+|==>x+|aaax+”).
Configuring the Display Name Customization Feature
Use the following procedures to configure the display name customization feature.
Notes:
Pattern matching is only applied for incoming calls and against the From header display name for incoming calls.
Pattern matching is applied to shared lines.
Pattern matching is not applied against the display name in the P-Asserted-Identity (PAI) header.
Configuration Files
For specific parameters you can set in the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section, “Display Name Customization Settings” on pageA-133.

Displaying Call Destination for Incoming Calls
The IP Phones allow an Administrator to enable and disable the call destination name in the “TO” header of the INVITE
message for incoming calls. When this feature is enabled, the call destination name displays on the LCD of the phone. This
allows the user to easily determine the intended destination of an incoming call.
Behavior of the Phone
When this feature is enabled, the phone behaves as follows:
The call destination information displays on multiple screens that scroll every 3 seconds.
Configuring the Display of Call Destination for Incoming Calls
Use the following procedures to configure the display of call destination for incoming calls on the IP Phones.
Limitations
The following are limitations of this feature:
Any call destination name exceeding the screen length is truncated by the phone.
The CT cordless handsets do not support this feature.
Page scrolling every 3 seconds is hard-coded and not configurable.
Callers List
The IP phones have a "Callers List" feature that store the name, phone number, and incremental calls, for each call received
by the phone. You can enable and disable the Callers List feature using the configuration files. When disabled, the Callers
List does not display on the IP phone UI and the Caller List key is ignored when pressed.
When enabled, you can view, scroll, and delete line items in the Callers List from the IP phone UI. You can also directly dial
from a displayed line item in the Callers List. You can download the Callers List to your PC for viewing using the Aastra Web
UI.
IF THEN
A value exists for the Display Name field in the “TO” header of the INVITE
message for incoming calls... the phone displays the call destination name.
Display Name field is empty... the phone uses the name specified for the “Screen name 1” parameter.
“Screen name 1” parameter is empty... the phone uses the name specified for the “Display Name” parameter.
“Display Name” parameter is empty... the phone uses the name specified for the “SIP User Name” parameter.
“SIP User Name” parameter is empty... the phone uses the name specified for the “Call Destination Number”
parameter.
Note:
When both call diversion and call destination are enabled, the formation displays to the phones screens in the follow-
ing order:
Screen 1: Caller info
Screen 2: Call destination
Screen 3: Call diversion
Configuration Files
For the specific parameter you can set in the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section, “Display of Call Destination for Incoming Calls” on pageA-
133.
Operational Features
5-224 41-001343-02 REV04 – 05.2014
When you download the Callers List, the phone stores the callerlist.csv file to your computer in comma-separated value
(CSV) format.
You can use any spreadsheet application to open the file for viewing. The following is an example of a Callers List in a
spreadsheet application.
The file displays the name, phone number, and the line that the call came in on.
Enabling/Disabling Callers List
You can enable and disable user access to the Callers List on the IP phones using the following parameter in the configu-
ration files:
callers list disabled
Valid values for this parameter are 0 (enabled) and 1 (disabled). If this parameter is set to 0, the Callers List can be
accessed by all users. If this parameter is
set to 1, the IP phone does not save any caller information to the Caller List. For any applicable phones, the "Callers List"
option on the IP phone is removed from the Services menu, and the Caller List key is ignored if pressed by the user.
Use the following procedures to enable/disable the Callers List on the IP phones.
Using the Callers List

Directory List
The IP phones have a "Directory List" feature that allows you to store frequently used names and numbers on the
phone. You can also dial directly from the directory entry.
Directory List Capabilities
In the Directory List a user or administrator can store a maximum of 7 numbers associated with a unique name. You can
apply pre-defined labels to the entry which include, Office, Home, Cell, and Pager, or create your own labels (for phones
with softkeys). Labels can be up to 14 characters in length for all phones with softkeys except the 6867i. The 6867i’s char-
acter length limit is variable and as such automatically truncates labels that are too long.
Reference
For more detailed information about the Directory Key on your IP phone, and the Directory List, see your Aastra
<Model-Specific> IP Phone User Guide.
Administrator/User Functions for Directory List
You can perform the following pertaining to the Directory List:
You can enable and disable access to the Directory List using the configuration files. When disabled, the Directory List
does not display on the IP phone UI and the Directory List softkey is ignored when pressed. This is an administrator
function only.
If the Directory List is enabled, you can view, add, change, and delete entries to/from the Directory List using the IP
phone UI. You can also directly dial a number from the Directory List. This is an administrator and user function.
A public and private softkey can be used when at a line item in the Directory List. The Private key toggles a number in
the Directory List to private. The Public key allows a number in the Directory List to be sent to the handsets. A 6757i
CT accepts a maximum of 50 entries with the public attribute. This is an administrator and user function.
You can download the Directory List to your PC via the Aastra Web UI. The phone stores the directorylist.csv file to your
PC in comma-separated value (CSV) format. This is an administrator and user function.
You can use any spreadsheet application to open the file for viewing. The following is an example of a Directory List in

is disabled. On 3-Line LCD phones, the "Directory" option is also removed from the "Services" menu.
Use the following procedures to enable/disable the Directory List on the IP phones.
Server to IP Phone Download
You can populate your IP phone Directory List with server directory files. To activate this feature, you need to add the fol-
lowing parameters to the configuration files:
directory 1: company_directory
directory 2: my_personal_directory
The IP phone recognizes the following characters in a Directory List:
A valid directory entry has a name, a URI number, and optional line number, and an optional mode attribute, all separated
by commas. If a line number is not present, the entry is assigned to line 1. If a mode attribute (public or private) is not
present, the entry is assigned to "Private".
Configuration Files
For specific parameters you can set in the configuration files for enabling/disabling the Directory List, see Appendix A, the section, “Directory Settings”
on pageA-107.
Character Description
’#’ Pound character; any characters appearing after the # on a line are treated as a comment
, Comma character; used to separate the name, URI number, line, and mode fields within each directory entry.

Server to IP Phone Download Behavior
The software that reads directory files from the server, loads the files contents into the phone's NVRAM when the phone
is booting. Directory entries in the NVRAM that originate from a server directory file are “owned” by the server.
During the boot process both directory files are read, combined into a single list, and any duplicate entries are deleted
from the list. Any entries in this list that are not already in the phone's NVRAM are added to the NVRAM and flagged as
being owned by the server. Likewise, any entries in the NVRAM that are owned by the server, but are no longer in one of
the server's directory files, are removed from the NVRAM. Entries made from the IP phone UI are never touched.
Directory List Limitations
The following table indicates the maximum characters for each line and field in the Directory List.
Note:
Duplicate entries are recognized by the IP phone as those that contain the same name, URI number, and line number.
The label and mode attribute (i.e. public or private) are not taken into consideration by the IP phone when comparing
entries.
Directory List Limitations
Maximum length of a line 255 characters
Maximum length of a name 15 characters for all phones except the
6867i. The 6867i has variable character
lengths and automatically truncates
names that are too long).
Maximum length of a URI 45 characters
Maximum number directory entries in the NVRAM 200 entries
Maximum number directory entries in the NVRAM with the "public" attribute

Local Directory Loose Number Matching
If the incoming calling number does not match exactly to the local directory, the lookup will fail and the phone will not
display the stored directory name. Now, the phone can be configured to match only the specified number of digits
against the local directory.
Administrators can enter a parameter “directory digits match” to determine the number of digits (from the incoming
call) that the phone will use to perform a lookup in the local directory to match the number to a contact. The phone will
take the last n digits of the incoming call to perform the lookup.
For example, if a local directory contains the following contact:
555123456 Spain Office
and the “directory digits match” parameter is configured (directory digits match: 9), the phone will take the last 9 digits
of the incoming number (+34555123456) and match it to the contact in the directory and display the following on the

The Voicemail list displays a list of phone numbers assigned to the IP phone that has registered voicemail accounts associ-
ated with them.
The phone displays up to 99 voicemails for an account even if the number of voicemails exceeds the limit.
Registered account numbers/URIs that exceed the length of the screen, either with or without the voicemail icon and the
message count, are truncated with an ellipse character at the end of the number/URI string.
The end of the Voicemail list displays the number of new voicemail messages (if any exist).
Configuring Voicemail
You configure Voicemail in the configuration files to dial a specific number to access an existing voicemail account. The
user then follows the voicemail instructions for listening to voicemails.

Visual Indicators for Voicemail on SCA-Configured Lines
Visual indicators for voicemail messages on Shared Call Appearance (SCA) lines have been implemented on the 9480i,
9480i CT, 6735i, 6737i, 6755i, 6757i, and 6757i CT model IP phones. The parameter “voice mail indicator” is available
allowing administrators the ability to configure what types of visual indicators the IP phones should display when voice-
mail messages are pending on a respective SCA line.
Administrators have three options when configuring the “voice mail indicator” parameter:
0: When a line has pending messages, the IP phone does not display any visual indicators.
1: When a line has pending messages, the line’s corresponding softkey will display an envelope icon and the
number of pending messages beside the softkey’s label . Additionally, the softkeys LED will be illuminated (if available).
2: When a line has pending messages, the line’s corresponding softkey will display only the envelope icon beside
the softkeys label (i.e. no indication of the number of pending messages). Additionally, the softkeys LED will be illumi-
nated (if available).
The parameter is set to 0 (no visual indicators) by default.
Configuring SCA Voicemail Visual Indicators
Use the following procedure to configure the SCA voicemail visual indicators.
Notes:
The above behaviors are also applicable to expansion module softkeys representing SCA lines.
For programmable keys representing SCA lines, the respective programmable keys LED will flash when voicemail mes-
sages are pending.
The voice mail indicator” parameter takes precedence over the “line icon disabled” parameter. If both “voice mail
indicator” and “line icon disabled” are enabled, an envelope icon (and number of messages, if configured) will be dis-
played when voicemail messages are pending.
For information on SCA see “Shared Call Appearance (SCA) Call Bridgingon page 5-174.
Configuration Files
For specific parameters you can set in the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section, “SCA Voicemail Indicator Settings” on pageA-106.

PIN and Authorization Code Suppression
Certain features on MX-ONE require a PIN/authorization code to be entered on the phone (for example: to register, for
authorization, locking/unlocking, or accounting).
The number format is the following:
*<feature code>*PIN# or *<feature code>*PIN*<number>#
To deactivate features, the first star is replaced by #, for example:
#<feature code>*PIN#.
Administrators can now configure the “pin suppression dial plan” parameter so that if such a feature code with a PIN is
entered, the PIN does not show up in any of the phone logs (i.e. the redial list) nor is it displayed on the screen during a
call. The phone will dynamically mask the PIN on the display within a second of the code being entered by the user.
The “pin suppression dial plan” parameter introduces new alphanumeric characters that control the masking of the
PIN: “(“ and “)”.
The following is an example value of the new configuration parameter:
"*11*(1XXX)*5555+#|*72*(1XXX)#|#73*(1XXX)#"
where (1XXX) will mask any PINs that are 4 digits long and start with 1.
This parameter value should lead to the following masking:
Entered digits *11*1234*5555# will lead to INVITE to this number but *11******5555# is shown on the display and in
the redial list.
Entered digits *72*1234# will lead to INVITE to this number but
*72*****# is shown on the display and in the redial list.
Entered digits #73*1234# will lead to INVITE to this number but
#73*****# is shown on the display and in the redial list.
Use the following procedure to configure the pin suppression feature using the configuration files.
Note:
The pin will be masked with wildcard characters (i.e. “*”) on the display and in the logs.

For specific parameters you can set in the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section, “PIN Suppression on pageA-112.

XML Customized Services
Extensible Markup Language (XML) is a markup language much like HTML. HTML was designed to display data and to
focus on how data looks. XML was designed to describe data and to focus on what data is.
The following are characteristics of XML:
XML tags are not predefined. You must define your own tags.
XML uses a Document Type Definition (DTD) or an XML Schema to describe the data.
XML with a DTD or XML Schema is designed to be self-descriptive
XML is a W3C Standard Recommendation
Creating Customized XML Services on the IP Phones
The XML application for the IP phones allows users to create custom services they can use via the phones keyboard and
display. These services include things like weather and traffic reports, contact information, company info, stock quotes, or
custom call scripts.
The IP phone XML application supports the following proprietary objects that allow for the customization of the IP
phones display.

Enabling/Disabling a Beep for Status Message Displays
You can enable or disable a BEEP option using the Status Message object (AastraIPPhoneStatus), the configuration files, or
the Aastra Web UI.
When the phone receives a status message, the BEEP notifies the user that the message is displaying.
You can use the following to enable/disable a status message beep:
AastraIPPhoneStatus object (via XML object; see the Aastra XML Developer’s Guide)
xml beep notification (via configuration files)
XML Beep Support (via the Aastra Web UI)
Enabling the beep is an indication to the phone to sound a beep when it receives an AastraIPPhoneStatus object. If you
disable the beep, or no AastraIPPhoneStatus object appears in the status message, then the default behavior is no beep is
heard when the object arrives to the phone.
The value set in the configuration files and Aastra Web UI override the attribute you specify for the AastraIPPhoneStatus
object.
For example, if the AastraIPPhoneStatus object has the attribute of Beep=”yes, and you uncheck (disable) the “XML Beep
Support” in the Aastra Web UI, the phone does not beep when it receives an AastraIPPhoneStatus object.
Setting the BEEP option in the configuration files and the Aastra Web UI applies to the phone immediately.
Reference
For information about enabling/disabling the XML beep in the Aastra Web UI, see “XML Beep Support on page5-62.
Scroll Delay Option for Status Messages
The IP phones support a scroll delay option that allows you to set the time delay, in seconds, between the scrolling of each
status message on the phone. The default time is 5 seconds for each message to display before scrolling to the next mes-
sage. You can configure this option via the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.
You can use the following to set the scroll delay for status messages:
xml status scroll delay (via the configuration files)
Status Scroll Delay (seconds) (via the Aastra Web UI)
Changes apply to the phone immediately.
Reference
For more information about configuring status scroll delay, see “Status Scroll Delay on page5-63.
XML Configuration Push from the Server
The IP phones provide an XML feature that allows you to make configuration changes to the phone that take affect imme-
diately, without having to reboot the phone. This feature involves creating XML scripts that push the changed configura-
tion parameter(s) from the server to the IP phones.
You can use the AastraIPPhoneConfiguration object in the XML scripts to change configuration parameters or configure
new parameters. However, since the IP phone does not save new parameters created in XML scripts to the local.cfg file,
when the phone reboots, it does not save the new parameters on the phone. In order for the phone to apply new configu-
ration parameters, you have to enter the parameters via the user interfaces (Telephone User Interface, Web User Interface,
or configuration files), or reapply the new parameters using the XML scripts after every boot.
Specific configuration parameters are dynamic on the phone when pushed from XML scripts on the server. See the Aastra
XML Developer’s Guide for more information about XML configuration scripts and dynamic configuration parameters.
Note:
For enabling/disabling a status message beep using the Status Message object, see the Aastra XML Developers
Guide.

Configuring the Phone to use XML
You can configure the phone to request the XML objects you create by configuring specific parameters via the configura-
tion files or the Aastra Web UI.
Users can access XML applications via softkeys configured on the IP phones. The phone performs an HTTP GET on the
URI configured in the Aastra Web UI or configuration files.
You configure the following parameters for object requests:
xml application URI
xml application title
The xml application URI is the application you are loading into the IP phone.
The xml application title is the name of the XML application that displays on the Services menu in the IP Phone UI (as
option #4).
XML Get Timeout
The IP phone has a parameter called, “xml get timeout” that allows you to specify a timeout value, in seconds, that the
phone waits for the far side to return a response after accepting the HTTP GET connection. If the far side accepts the GET
connection but never returns a response, it blocks the phone until it is rebooted. If you enter a value greater than 0 for
this parameter, the phone times out and will not be blocked.
For more information about configuring this parameter, see Appendix A, the section, “XML Settings on page A-114.
XML Push Requests
In addition to initiating a request to an XML application from a softkey, an HTTP server can push an XML object to the
phone via HTTP Post. When the phone sees a PUSH request containing an XML object, it tries to authenticate the
request. It does so by checking the IP address or host name of the requesting host against a list of trusted hosts (or
domain names) configured via the Aastra Web UI (parameter called XML Push Server List) or the configuration files
(parameter called xml application post list). If the request is authenticated, the XML object is handled by the IP phone
accordingly, and displays the information to the screen.
Note:
The HTTP Post must contain HTTP packets that have an "xml" line in the message body. For more information about
adding "xml" lines in HTTP packets, see the Aastra XML Developer’s Guide.

How it Works
When a startup, successful registration, incoming call, outgoing call, offhook, or onhook call event occurs on the phone,
the phone checks to see if the event has an action URI configured. If the phones finds a URI configured, any variables con-
figured (in the form $$VARIABLENAME$$) are replaced with the value of the appropriate variable. After all of the variables
are bound, the phone executes a GET on the URI. The Action URI binds all variables and is not dependant on the state of
the phone.
For example, if you enter the following string for the action uri outgoing parameter:
action uri outgoing: http://10.50.10.140/outgoing.pl?number=$$REMOTENUMBER$$
$$LINESTATE$$ Current line state associated with:
registered phone

Polling Action URIs
Another way to reach a phone behind a NAT/firewall is to have the phone make an XML call at periodic intervals. An
Administrator can use the action uri poll parameter that commands the phone to perform an XML call at configurable
intervals.
An Administrator can specify the URI to be called and specify the interval between polls using the configuration files or
the Aastra Web UI. Configuration of this feature is dynamic (no reboot required).
Configuring Polling Action URI via the Configuration Files
Use the following parameters to configure the polling Action URI on the IP Phones.
action uri poll
action uri poll interval
Configuring Polling Action URI via the Aastra Web UI
Use the following procedure to configure polling Action URI using the Aastra Web UI.
12. (Optional) You can poll a URI at specific intervals on the phones. For more information about polling Action URIs, see “Polling Action URIs”
on page5-252.

Action URI Connected
A parameter calledaction uri connected” (configuration files) and “Connected” (Aastra Web UI) now allows XML scripts
to determine when a call is connected. When enabled, the phone triggers an HTTP GET when it goes into the “connected”
state. This includes regular phone calls, intercom calls, paging calls, RTP streaming, and the playing of a WAV file. It is also
triggered when the phone establishes the second leg of a 3-way call.
This parameter can use the following variables:
$$REMOTENUMBER$$
$$DISPLAYNAME$$
$$SIPUSERNAME$$
$$SIPAUTHNAME$$
$$INCOMINGNAME$
$$PROXYURL$$
$$LINESTATE$$
$$CALLDIRECTION$$
$$LOCALIP$$
$$DISPLAYNAME$$
$$CALLDURATION$$
$$REGISTRATIONSTATE$$
$$REGISTRATIONCODE$$
If the Administrator enables this feature (by specifying a connect URI), when a call is connected, the phone checks to see if
the event has a Connect URI configured. If the phones finds a configured URI it executes an XML script or the variable if
defined.
Example
In the configuration files, you can enter the following:
action uri connected: http://www.example.com/connect.php
An Administrator can enable the “Connected” Action URI feature using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.
Limitations
During SLA calls, the phone uses the Action URI Connected parameter when the line is seized before the caller dials out.
SCA and BLA calls on hold trigger the Action URI Connected parameter, since the retrieval is a 2nd call by the phone,
and the phone cannot link the retrieved call with the earlier held call.
For more information about the XML API objects, see the Aastra XML Developers Guide.
Configuring the Action URI Connected Feature
Use the following procedure to configure the Action URI Connected feature on the phone.
3. In the Interval” field, enter the interval, in seconds, between calls from the phone to the "action uri poll". The value of “0” is disabled.

Action URI Disconnected
The phones have a parameter, “action uri disconnected” that allow a disconnect event to occur when the phone transi-
tions from any active state (outgoing, incoming, connected, or calling) to an idle state. This parameter can use the varia-
ble “$$LINESTATE$$”.
If the Administrator enables this feature (by specifying a disconnect URI), when a call is disconnected, the phone checks
to see if the event has a Disconnect URI configured. If the phones finds a configured URI with a $$LINESTATE$$ variable,
it replaces the $$LINESTATE$$ variable with the appropriate line state of the current active line. After all of the variables
are bound, the phone executes a GET on the URI. The following table lists the applicable values for the $$LINESTATE$$
variable.
Aastra Web UI
1. Click on Advanced Settings->Action URI.
2. In the “Connected” field, enter a valid URI for which the phone executes a GET on, when it goes into the “connected” state. Leaving this field
empty disables the Action URI Connected feature. For example,
http://www.example.com/connect.php
3. Click Save Settings to save your settings.

Example
If you enter the following string on Phone A for the “action uri disconnected” parameter:
action uri disconnected: http://fargo.ana.aastra.com/disconnected.xml?state=$$LINESTATE$$
and then Phone A calls Phone B, Phone B answers and then hangs up, Phone A executes a GET on:
http://fargo.ana.aastra.com/disconnected.xml?state=CONNECTED
which is what the remote server receives.
An Administrator can enable the disconnect feature using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.

the phone does not do anything.
On the phone side, a System Administrator can enable or disable this SIP NOTIFY feature using the configuration files or
the phone Web UI.
Note:
The phone supports all the current XML objects with all the existing limitations. For example if an AastraIPPhoneExe-
cute is used, the embedded URI(s) can not be HTTPS based.

XML Key Redirection
The IP phones allow the redirecting of phone-based hard keys to XML scripts. This allows the server to provide the phone
with Redial, Transfer (Xfer), Conference (Conf), and Intercom (Icom) key features, and the Voicemail option feature, rather
then accessing them from the phone-side. This feature allows you to access the redirected keys and voicemail option
from the server using the IP Phones Services Menu. By default, the server-side keys function the same as the phone-side
key features.
The following table identifies the phone states that apply to each key redirection.
The following URI configuration parameters control the redirection of the keys and the voicemail option:

XML Applications and Off-Hook Interaction
A feature on the IP phone allows you to specify whether the phone is prevented from going into the off-hook/dialing state
when the handset is off-hook and the call ends.
By default, the phone behaves as follows:
You are in a call using the handset and the phone displays an XML application. The far-end terminates the call, and a new
XML application gets pushed/pulled onto the display. Since the handset is off-hook and in idle mode, the "offhook idle
timer" starts. When this timer expires, the phone applies dial tone and moves to the off-hook/dialing state, which then
destroys the XML application that was being displayed.
With the “off-hook interaction” feature you can set an “auto offhook” parameter that determines whether or not the
phone is prevented from entering the off-hook/dialing state, if the handset is off-hook and the call ends.
An Administrator can enable (allow phone to enter the off-hook dialing state) or disable (prevent the phone from entering
the off-hook dialing state) using the “auto offhook” parameter in the configuration files only.
Configuration Files
For the specific parameters you can set in the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section, “XML Key Redirection Settings (for Redial, Xfer, Conf,
Icom, Voicemail)” on pageA-207.
Notes:
If no Options URI script is configured, the local Options Menu on the phone displays as normal.
If you configure password access to the Options Menu, this password is required when accessing the local Option
Menu, but is not required for the Options Key redirection feature.
Pressing the Options Menu for redirection from the server does not interfere with normal operations of the phone
(for example, pressing the options menu when on a call does not affect the call).
If the phone is locked, you must unlock the phone before accessing the Options Menu redirect feature. After pressing
the Options Key, the phone displays a screen that allows you to unlock the phone before continuing.

XML URI for Key Press Simulation
The Phones provide a feature that allow an XML Developer or Administrator to define XML Key URIs that can send key
press events to the phone, just as if the physical hard key, softkey, or programmable key were pressed on the phone.
For more information about this feature, see Chapter 6, the section, “XML URI for Key Press Simulation on page6-34.
XML Override for a Locked Phone
The IP phones have a feature that allows a locked phone to be overridden when an XML application is sent to the phone.
This feature also allows you to still use any softkeys/programmable key/Extension Module Keys applicable to the XML
application even though the phone is locked. However, any keys NOT associated with the XML application cannot be
used when the phone is locked.
Also, XML Get Requests override the locked feature on the phone so that any softkey pressed by the user that initiates a
Get Request continues to get sent.
To allow the overriding of the locked phone for XML applications, the System Administrator must enter the following
parameter in the configuration files:

Handling Call Termination Screens on the Phone UI
The following procedure describes how to handle the call terminated screens on your phone.
Centralized Conferencing (for Sylantro and Broadsoft Servers)
The IP phones include support for centralized conferencing (Ad-Hoc conferencing) for Sylantro and Broadsoft servers.
This feature provides centralized conferencing on the SIP server (versus localized, on the phone) and allows IP phone
users to do these tasks:
Conference two active calls together into a conference call.
When on an active conference call, invite another party into the call.
Create simultaneous conference calls on the same IP phone (Sylantro servers only). For example, the IP phone user at
extension 2005 could create these two conferences, and put one conference on hold while conversing with the other
party:
Line 1: conference together extensions 2005, 2010, and 2020.
Line 2: conference together extensions 2005, 2011 and 2021.
When an IP phone user is connected to multiple conference calls, some outbound proxies have maximum call “hold”
time set from 30-90 seconds. After this time, the call that is on hold is disconnected.
Disconnect from an active conference call while allowing the other callers to remain connected.
Ability to create N-way conference.
Join two active calls together into a conference call.
Incoming or outgoing active call can join any of the existing conferences.
If the administrator does not configure centralized conferencing, then the IP phone uses localized conferencing by
default.
An Administrator can configure centralized conferencing on a global or per-line basis using the configuration files or the

Custom Ad-Hoc Conference
Previously, the phone will wait for server response prior to completing the ad-hoc and centralized conference feature. This
results in an interoperability issue with certain call managers, such as Genband. Now the phone no longer waits for server
response before referring the call to the conference host when the "custom adhoc conference" parameter is enabled.
Configuring the “Custom AD-Hoc Conference” Feature Using the Configuration Files
You use the following parameters to configure the “Custom AD- Hoc Conference” feature in the configuration files:
custom adhoc conference
“SIP Join” Feature for 3-Way Conference
The IP Phones support a feature referenced in RFC 3911, which allows an additional caller to join an active call between
two parties if the caller knows the dialog information. This feature begins a conference using a join header as described in
RFC 3911.
The “SIP Join“ feature provides the following:
Security via the whitelist (which is a feature that already exists on the phone).
Initiates an offhook action uri when it is answered.
Initiates an onhook action uri at call termination.
Creates a caller list entry.
This feature is disabled by default. You can enable the “SIP Join” feature by setting the “sip join support” parameter in the
configuration files.
Limitations of the “SIP Join” Feature
The following are limitations of the “SIP Join” feature:
Not applicable to a conference call already in progress.
Not applicable to a CT handset that has two active calls.
Not applicable to a phone mixing RTP.
Allows secondary parties to join calls if they can determine the dialog parameters. In order to provide security, it is rec-
ommended that the Administrator configure the SIP whitelist.
Not applicable while the active call between two parties is in the early dialog state.
Configuring the “SIP Join” Feature Using the Configuration Files
You use the following parameters to configure the “SIP Join feature in the configuration files:

Conference/Transfer Support for Live Dial Mode
By default, when users are initiating a conference call or transfer, they will not hear a dial tone before dialing begins (pre-
dial mode). The phone does not automatically dial out the number until the user presses the “Conf” or “Transfer” key.
This allows the users to make changes to the dialing number before initiating the call. Administrators can now enable
live dial mode by configuring the new “confxfer live dial” parameter. In live dial mode, when the user is completing a
conference call or transfer, they will hear a dial tone before dialing begins. In addition, the phone will either match the
number to the dial plan or wait for the set digit timeout.
In the default pre-dial mode, users are able to edit the destination number prior to dialing, whereas in live dial mode
they are not able to, however the “Dial” and “Cancel” softkeys are provided while the user inputs the number.
Reference
For more information about conference/transfer support for live dial mode, see your Aastra< Model-Specific> SIP IP
Phone User Guide.
Configuring Conference/Transfer in Live Dial Mode
You use the following parameters to configure conference/transfer feature in live dial mode:
confxfer live dial
Authentication Support for HTTP/HTTPS Download Methods, used with
Broadsoft Client Management System (CMS)
The IP phones support HTTP/HTTPS digest authentication as defined in RFC 2617. (The HTTP client supports digest
authentication; the HTTP server does not; the HTTP server supports basic authentication). This feature allows the phones
to interoperate with Broadsoft’s CMS phone configuration tool.
Using the configuration files, you can enable/disable the following parameter to display a LOG IN softkey which allows
the HTTP/HTTPS server to perform digest authentication:
http digest force login - specifies whether or not to display the LOG IN softkey on the IP Phone UI screen. Valid values
are 0 (disabled) or 1 (enabled). Default is 0 (disabled).
If the “http digest force login” parameter is set to 1 (enabled), after the phone boots, the LOG IN softkey displays on the
phone’s LCD. If the user presses this softkey, a username/password screen displays, allowing the user to enter the config-
ured username and password that is sent to the HTTP/HTTPS server for digest authentication by the server. By default,
username is “aastra” and password is “aastra. You can enter the username and password in two ways:
Using the configuration files, you can change the default values for the following parameters:
http digest username - specifies the username to use for HTTP/HTTPS digest authentication.
http digest password - specifies the password to use for HTTP/HTTPS digest authentication.
By enabling the “http digest force login” parameter (setting to 1) - the phone displays the LOG IN key so the user can
enter the default username/password via the IP Phone UI.
Configuration Files
For specific parameters you can set in the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section, “Conference/Transfer in Live Dial Mode” on pageA-80.

Configuring Broadsoft CMS Support via the Configuration Files
Configure Broadsoft CMS support on the IP Phone using the following parameters in the configuration files:
http digest force login
http digest username
http digest password
Using the IP Phone when Broadsoft CMS is Enabled
If you enable the HTTP/HTTPS digest authentication feature, the phone behaves as follows with the BroadSoft CMS tool:
Configuration Files
For specific parameters you can set in the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section, “HTTP/HTTPS Authentication Support for Broadsoft CMS”
on pageA-81.
1. Factory default the phone.
2. Configure the HTTP or HTTPS server (specify the HTTP or HTTPS server, path, and port).
3. Restart the phone.
The first time the phone reboots, the phone is challenged by the server. The phone sends the default username of
aastra” and the default password of “aastra” to the server.
The server sends the default profile to the phone. This profile includes the information “http digest force login: 1”.
When the phone receives the profile, it displays the “Log In” key on the IP Phone UI’s idle screen.
4. Press the “Log In" key to displays the username/password screen
Note:
On the 8 and 11-Line LCD phones as well as the 6739i and 6867i, you use the Log In softkey to log in. On 3-Line LCD
phones, you press the right arrow key to log in.
5. Enter a username in the “Username” field (up to 40 characters) and a password in the “Password” field (up to 20
characters).
Note:
The “Username” and “Password” fields accept special characters, such as, @, #, %, =, _, etc. You can also specify
domain names in the Username field (i.e., user@domain).
6. After entering the username and password, press Submit.
The phone attempts to authenticate with the server. If successful, the phone reboots and loads the user configuration.
If unsuccessful, the phone displays “Authentication Failed”.

Advanced Operational Features
Description
This section provides the following information about advanced features of the IP phones:
Feature Description
TR-069 Support The IP Phones support the Technical Report (TR) 069 Protocol, a Protocol that provides the
communication between Customer-Premises Equipment (CPE) (like the IP Phones) and
Auto Configuration Servers (ACS) over DSL/broadband connections.
MAC Address/Line Number in REGISTER Messages Allows you to enable or disable the sending of the MAC address and line number from the
IP phone to the call server, in a REGISTER message.
SIP Message Sequence for Blind Transfer Allows you to enable or disable the phone to use the Blind Transfer method available in
software prior to release 1.4.
Update Caller ID During a Call Allows you to enable or disable the updating of the Caller ID information during a call.
Boot Sequence Recovery Mode Allows you to enable or disable Web recovery mode and set the maximum boot count on
the IP phone.
Auto-discovery Using mDNS The IP phones automatically perform an auto-discovery of all servers on a network using
mDNS. When the IP phone discovers a TFTP server, it is automatically configured by that
TFTP server.
Single Call Restriction Allows you to enable or disable a single call restriction between the 6757i CT base unit and
a call server.
Missed Call Summary Subscription Allows missed calls that have been redirected by the server, to be incremented in the
missed calls indicator on the phone it was initially directed to.
As-Feature-Event Subscription Allows you to enable or disable a specific line on the phone with the BroadSoft’s server-side
DND, CFWD, or ACD features.
Blacklist Duration Allows you to specifies the length of time, in seconds, that a failed server remains on the
server blacklist. The IP phone avoids sending a SIP message to a failed server (if another
server is available) for this amount of time.
Whitelist Proxy Allows you to configure the phone to either accept or reject call requests from a trusted
proxy server.
Transport Layer Security (TLS) Allows you to enable or disable the use of Persistent Transport Layer Security (TLS).
Persistent TLS sets up the connection to the server once and re-uses that connection for all
calls from the phone. The setup connection for Persistent TLS is established during the reg-
istration of the phone. If the phones are set to use Persistent TLS, and a call is made from the
phone, this call and all subsequent calls use the same authenticated connection. This sig-
nificantly reduces the delay time when placing a call.
802.1x Support Allows you to enable or disable the 802.1x Protocol support on the IP Phones.
Symmetric UDP Signaling Allows you to enable or disable the phone to use port 5060 to send SIP UDP messages.
Symmetric TLS Signaling Allows you to enable or disable the phone to use port 5061 to send SIP TLS messages.
Removing UserAgent and Server SIP Headers Allows you to enable or disable the addition of the User-Agent and Server SIP headers in
the SIP stack.
GRUU and sip.instance Support The IP phones provide GRUU support using draft-ietf-sip-gruu-15. A sip.instance is added
to all non-GRUU contacts.
Multi-Stage Digit Collection (Billing Codes) Support (for
Sylantro Servers) IP Phones support Sylantro Server features, like mandatory and optional billing codes that
require the application server to notify the phone to collect more digits before completing
the call. The IP phone is able to collect digits in two stages to support the billing code fea-
ture.
Configurable DNS Queries Allows you to specify the Domain Name Service (DNS) query method to use when the
phone performs a DNS lookup.
Ignore Out of Sequence Errors Allows you to configure the phone to ignore CSeq number errors on all SIP dialogs on the
phone.
Advanced Operational Features
6-4 41-001343-02 REV04 – 05.2014
TR-069 Support
The IP Phones support the Technical Report (TR)-069 Protocol. This Protocol is a bi-directional HTTP based protocol that
provides the communication between Customer-Premises Equipment (CPE) (like the IP Phones) and Auto Configuration
Servers (ACS) over DSL/broadband connections. It includes both a safe auto configuration and the control of other CPE
management functions within an integrated framework.
Service providers can, through TR-069, use one common platform to manage (through the internet) all of their customer
premise devices, regardless of the device or manufacturer. If TR-069 is enabled on the phones, when the remote ACS
boots the phones, they contact the ACS and establish the configuration automatically.
“Early-Only” Parameter in Replaces Header RFC3891 The phones support the “early-only” parameter in the “Replaces” header as referenced in
RFC3891.
Switching Between Early Media and Local Ringing The phones support switching between early media and local ring tone.
Enable Microphone During Early Media Allows you to enable or disable the microphone during early media.
“Call-Info” Header to 200ok Responses for Shared Call
Appearance (SCA) Lines In Release 2.6 and up, a “Call-Info” header is included in the 200ok response to an INVITE,
RE-INVITE, and UPDATE messages for SCA lines.
Reason Header Field in SIP Message The IP Phones support the receiving of the Reason Header Field in a SIP CANCEL message,
as described in RFC3326.
Configurable “Allow” and “Allow-Event” Optional Head-
ers On the IP Phones, an Administrator can enable or disable whether or not the optional
Allow” and “Allow-Events” headers are included in the NOTIFY message from the phone.
Configurable SIP P-Asserted Identity (PAI) The IP Phones support a private extension to SIP for Asserted Identity within trusted net-
works (as defined in RFC 3325).
Configurable Route Header in SIP Packet The IP Phones support a parameter that enables or disables the addition of the Route
header in a SIP packet.
Configurable Compact SIP Header The phones provide a feature that allows an Administrator to shorten the length of a SIP
packet by using the compact form. This feature is in accordance with Compact SIP Headers
defined in RFC 3261.
Reject INV or BYE when Unsupported Value in REQUIRE
Header The IP Phones support a parameter that allows you to enable or disable the rejection of an
INV or BYE with a “420 Bad Extension” if the INV or BYE contains an unsupported value in
the REQUIRE header.
XML URI for Key Press Simulation The phones provide a feature that allow an XML Developer or Administrator to define XML
Key URIs that can send key press events to the phone, just as if the physical hard key,
softkey, or programmable key were pressed on the phone.
Domain Name System (DNS) Server Pre-caching Support This feature allows administrators to configure the phone to download a text file which
contains persistent DNSA record” hostname to IP address mappings. In addition, support
for persistent DNS “SRV records” has been added to permit SRV based high availability of
services.
Configurable Transport Protocol for SIP Services and
RTCP Summary Reports The IP Phones support a parameter that allows administrators to ability to configure the
transport protocols used for SIP services and RTCP summary reports.
Configurable Alphanumeric Input Order for Username
Prompts This feature allow administrators the ability to change the default behavior of the keypad
input order during username prompts from uppercase letters > digit > lower case letters to
digit > uppercase letters > lower case letters.
Active Voice-over-IP (VoIP) Recording When using the IP phones with an Aastra call manager supporting voice recording and a
recording system with the predefined subset of the SIP interface, administrators can con-
figure the phones to send duplicate copies of the transmit and receive RTP or SRTP voice
packets to the voice recording system.
BroadSoft BroadWorks Executive and Assistant Services
Feature The Executive and Assistant Services feature allows Administrators to create an inter-net-
work relationship between Executives and Assistants allowing calls to the Executives
phone to be screened, filtered, and routed to an Assistant, whereby the Assistant can
answer, divert, or push the filtered call back to the Executive (6730i, 6731i, 6753i, 6755i,
6757i, 6757i CT, 9143i, 9840i, and 9840i CT IP phones only).

MAC Address/Line Number in REGISTER Messages
The IP phones can send the MAC address and line number in the REGISTER packets making it easier for the call server
when a user configures the phones via the Aastra Web UI or the IP Phone UI. The following two configurable headers send
this information to the call server:
Aastra-Mac: <mac address>
Aastra-Line: <line number>
The MAC address is sent in uppercase hex numbers, for example, 00085D03C792. The line number is a number between 1
and 9.
The following parameters allow you to enable/disable the sending of MAC address and line number to the call server:
sip send mac
sip send line
These parameters are disabled by default. The parameters are configurable via the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.

SIP Message Sequence for Blind Transfer
The SIP message sequence for Blind Transfer avoids the transfer target having two simultaneous calls. Prior to release 1.4,
a CANCEL message was sent to the transfer target (if it was in a ringing state) after sending a REFER to the transferee to
complete the transfer. In the 1.4 and later releases, the CANCEL is now sent before the REFER message.
The following parameter allows the system administrator to force the phone to use the Blind Transfer method available in
software versions prior to 1.4:
sip cancel after blind transfer
This parameter is configurable via the configuration files only.
Configuring SIP Message Sequence for Blind Transfer
SIP Message Sequence for Semi-Attended Transfer
The SIP message sequence for a Semi-Attended Transfer allows the transferor to start the transfer while the target phone is
still ringing.
The following parameter supports different behaviors of a semi-attended transfer:
sip refer-to with replaces
This parameter is configurable via the configuration files only.
The combination of this new parameter (sip refer-to with replaces”) and the existing parameter (sip cancel after blind
transfer”) determines how the semi-attended transfer is completed. The following table shows how the old and new
parameters work together:
On the transferor phone, the REFER request will always be sent to the transferee.

Update Caller ID During a Call
It is possible for a proxy or call server to update the Caller ID information that displays on the phone during a call, by
modifying the SIP Contact header in the re-INVITE message. The phone displays the updated name and number informa-
tion contained within the Contact header.
The following parameter allows the system administrator to enable or disable this feature:
sip update callerid
This parameter is configurable via the configuration files only.
Configuring Update Caller ID During a Call
Boot Sequence Recovery Mode
You can force the IP phone into recovery mode by pressing the 1 and # keys during boot up when the logo displays. This
feature is enabled by default on the IP phone.
You can disable this feature using the following parameter in the configuration files:
force web recovery mode disabled
Valid values for this parameter are 0 (false) and 1 (true). Default is 0 (false).
A boot counter increments after each faulty boot. When the counter reaches a predetermined value, it forces Web recov-
ery mode. The counter is reset to zero upon a successful boot.
The predetermined value is set using the following parameter in the configuration files:
max boot count
A zero (0) value disables this feature. The default value is 10.
You can configure the boot sequence recovery mode parameters using the configuration files only.

Advanced Operational Features
41-001343-02 REV04 – 05.2014 6-9
Auto-discovery Using mDNS
The IP phones can perform an auto-discovery of all servers on a network using mDNS. When the IP phone discovers a TFTP
server, it is automatically configured by that TFTP server.
An unconfigured phone (phone right out of the box) added to a network, attempts to auto-discover a configuration server
on the network without any end-user intervention. When it receives DHCP option 66 (TFTP server), it automatically gets
configured by the TFTP server.
An already configured phone (either previously configured by auto-discovery or manually configured) added to a net-

Single Call Restriction
On the 6757i CT and 9480i CT, an administrator can enable or disable a single call restriction between the 6757i CT and
9480i CT base unit and a call server.
When this feature is enabled (set to 1), you can make separate active calls from the 6757i CT and 9480i CT base unit and
from the cordless handset. If this feature is disabled (set to 0), only one call can be active at a time either from the base unit
or from the handset. When this feature is disabled, and you make an active call on either the base unit or the handset, any
other attempt to make an active call is put on hold. Also, when this feature is disabled, more than one call can negotiate
complex audio codecs since only a single call is decoding audio at a time.
You can configure this feature via the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.
Notes:
Configuration parameters received via DHCP do not constitute configuration information, with the exception of a
TFTP server. Therefore, you can plug a phone into a DHCP environment, still use the auto-discovery process, and still
allow the use of the TFTP server parameter to set the configuration server.
DHCP option 66 (TFTP server details) overrides the mDNS phase of the auto-discovery. Therefore, the DHCP option
takes priority and the remaining process of auto-discovery continues.
As the phone performs auto-discovery, all servers in the network (including the TFTP server), display in the phone
window. However, only the server configured for TFTP automatically configures the phone.
Note:
Applicable to the 6757i CT and 9480i CT IP Phones only.

Missed Call Summary Subscription
The “Missed Call Summary Subscription” feature allows missed calls that have been redirected by the server, to be
incremented in the missed calls indicator on the phone it was initially directed to. This feature is called the Missed Call
Summary Subscription and can be set with a timer that allows the phone to use the feature for a period of time before
the timer expires. For this feature to work, you must configure voicemail on the phone that the call was initially directed
to.
For example, phones A, B, and C are connected to the server. You configure the server to direct calls coming into phone B
(which has voicemail configured) to be forwarded to phone C. When phone A calls phone B, the server forwards the call
to phone C. With this feature, phone B receives notification from the server that the call was forwarded and the missed
calls indicator is incremented on phone B.
An Administrator can configure this feature on a global or per-line basis using the configuration files.

As-Feature-Event Subscription
The IP phones support server-side Do Not Disturb (DND), Call Forward (CFWD), and Automatic Call Distribution (ACD) fea-
ture events. This feature is called “as-feature-event” and works with the DND, CFWD, and ACD keys.
This feature is configurable using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.
How it Works on the Phone UI
When you enable the “as-feature-event” on the phone, AND you activate a DND, CFWD, and/or ACD key, pressing the key
performs as follows:
If the key is configured for an account on the phone, the server applies DND, CFWD or ACD to that account. (For infor-
mation about CFWD and DND account configuration, see Chapter 3, the section, Account Configuration on page3-
27).
If the key is “custom” configured, a screen displays on the phone allowing the user to choose the account to apply DND
or CFWD. (For information about CFWD and DND custom configuration, see Chapter 3, the section, Account Configura-
tion on page3-27).
A solid “Message Waiting Indicator” (MWI) indicates if one line/account has DND or CFWD enabled, and the LED next to
the DND/CFWD key is ON. A status displays on the LCD that indicates the status of the line in focus (for example, the sta-
tus of CFWD could be “Call Forward Busy” (CFWDB) or “Call Forward No Answer” (CFWDNA).
When you press the DND, CFWD, or ACD key, only one attempt is made to enable/disable the “as-feature-event” feature on
the server. The message “Trying” displays on the phone’s LCD after pressing the key. If the attempt is successful, the idle
screen displays. If the attempt is unsuccessful, the message “Failed” displays. The user can press the softkey again to re-
attempt the feature if required.
Configuration Files
For the specific parameters you can set in the configuration files for Missed Call Summary Subscription, see Appendix A, the section, “Missed Call Sum-
mary Subscription Settings on pageA-87.
Note:
The DND, CFWD, and ACD server-side feature is not applicable to the CT handset.
Note:
If the ACD key is configured on the phone, and the “as-feature-event” is not enabled, the phones uses the ACD icons
and LED behavior from a Sylantro server instead.
Advanced Operational Features
6-12 41-001343-02 REV04 – 05.2014
For server-side ACD, when you press the ACD softkey, the screen that displays is dependant on the state of the ACD sub-
scription. Possible state for ACD are:
Logged Out - User has the option of logging in.
Logged In - User has the option of logging out or making the phone unavailable.
Unavailable - User has the option of logging out or making the phone available.
Configuring As-Feature-Event Subscription Using the Configuration Files
If the phone-side features of the DND, CFWD, and ACD keys are enabled, the phone uses the existing parameter values
for these keys. If the server-side features are enabled, the phone saves the state of the features from the server on the
phone.
Use the following parameters to enable/disable the server-side “as-feature-event” on the IP Phone:
sip lineN as-feature-event subscription
sip as-feature-event subscription period
Configuring As-Feature-Event Subscription Using the Aastra Web UI
Use the following procedure to enable/disable the server-side “as-feature-event” on the IP Phone using the Aastra Web

Notes:
If DND and CFWD are configured to use “Account” mode on the IP Phone, pressing the DND and CFWD keys apply to
the account in focus as described in Chapter 3, the section, Account Configuration on page3-27.
If ACD is configured on the phone, the ACD softkey applies to the line for which the key is configured. The ACD
softkey must be configured for the first line of an account. For example, if account 2 has line 3 and line 4 you must
configure the ACD softkey for line 3.

Blacklist Duration
The Blacklist Duration feature helps to reduce unnecessary delays during proxy/registrar server failures, caused by the IP
phone repeatedly sending SIP messages to a failed server. If you enable this feature, then whenever the IP phone sends a
SIP message to a server, and does not get a response, the phone automatically adds the server to the blacklist. The IP
phone avoids sending messages to any servers on the blacklist. If all servers are on the blacklist, then the IP phone
attempts to send the message to the first server on the list.
You can specify how long failed servers remain on the blacklist in the IP phone’s configuration file or in the Aastra Web UI.
The default setting is 300 seconds (5 minutes). If you set the duration to 0 seconds, then you disable the blacklist feature.
4. Click on Advanced Settings->Global SIP->Advanced SIP Settings.

Whitelist Proxy
To protect your IP phone network, you can configure a “Whitelist Proxy” feature that screens incoming call requests
received by the IP phones. When this feature is enabled, an IP phone accepts call requests from a trusted proxy server only.
The IP phone rejects any call requests from an untrusted proxy server.
The whitelist is dynamically updated (i.e. the phones are able to refresh and resync the whitelist [without a reboot] if the IP
addresses corresponding to the proxy FQDNs are changed on the DNS server).
The IP phone monitors the following events and an update is triggered if required:
200 OK responses to REGISTER requests if the peers IP address is not currently in the whitelist.
200 OK responses to INVITE requests if the peers IP address is not currently in the whitelist.
INVITE requests from untrusted proxy servers.

Transport Layer Security (TLS)
The IP Phones support a transport protocol called Transport Layer Security (TLS) and Persistent TLS. TLS is a protocol
that ensures communication privacy between the SIP phones and the Internet. TLS ensures that no third party may
eavesdrop or tamper with any message.

TLS is composed of two layers: the TLS Record Protocol and the TLS handshake protocol. The TLS Record Protocol provides
connection security with some encryption method such as the Data Encryption Standard (DES). The TLS Handshake Proto-
col allows the server and client to authenticate each other and to negotiate an encryption algorithm and cryptographic
keys before data is exchanged. TLS requires the use of the following security certificate files to perform TLS handshake:
Root and Intermediate Certificates
Local Certificate
Private Key
Trusted Certificate
When the phones use TLS to authenticate with the server, each individual call must setup a new TLS connection. This can
take more time when placing each call. Thus, the IP phones also have a feature that allows you to setup the connection to
the server once and re-use that one connection for all calls from the phone. It is called Persistent TLS. The setup connec-
tion for Persistent TLS is established during the registration of the phone. If the phones are set to use Persistent TLS, and a
call is made from the phone, this call and all subsequent calls use the same authenticated connection. This significantly
reduces the delay time when placing a call.
On the IP phones, an Administrator can configure TLS and Persistent TLS on a global-basis only, using the configuration
files or the Aastra Web UI.
There is a keep-alive feature for persistent TLS connections only. Administrators can configure this keep-alive feature using
the parameter called “sip persistent tls keep alive. When this feature is configured, the phone will send keep-alive pings
to the proxy server at configured intervals. The keep-alive feature for persistent TLS connections performs the following
functionalities:
After a persistent TLS connection is established or re-established, activate the keep-alive, which will send CRLF to peer
periodically.
The phone will retry the connection automatically when a persistent TLS connection is down.
When a persistent TLS connection is re-established (primary is up or primary is down and backup is up), refresh registra-
tion of the accounts associated with the connection.
When a persistent TLS connection to primary is down, switch to backup if connection to backup is working.
Additionally the “sip send sips over tls” parameter allows administrators the ability to manually configure the IP phones
to use either the SIP or SIPS URI scheme when TLS or persistent TLS is enabled. Disabling the “sip send sips over tls
parameter (i.e. defining the parameter as “0in the configuration files) ensures the IP phones use the SIP URI scheme when
TLS or persistent TLS is enabled. Enabling the parameter (i.e. defining the parameter as “1”) ensures the phones use the
SIPS URI scheme in such scenarios. The SIPS URI scheme is used by default.
Notes:
There can be only one persistent TLS connection created per phone.
If you configure the phone to use Persistent TLS, you must also specify the Trusted Certificate file to use. The Root and
Intermediate Certificates, Local Certificate, and Private Key files are optional.

802.1x Support
The IP phones support the IEEE 802.1x protocol. The 802.1x protocol is a standard for passing Extensible Authentication
Protocol (EAP) over a wired or wireless Local Area Network (LAN).
The 802.1x protocol on the IP phone facilitates media-level access control, and offers the capability to permit or deny
network connectivity, control LAN access, and apply traffic policy, based on user or endpoint identity. This feature sup-
ports both the EAP-MD5 and EAP-TLS protocols.
If 802.1x on the phone is enabled, a “802.1x Authenticating...” message displays during startup of the phone.
If the 802.1x failed to authenticate with the server, the phone continues its normal startup process using DHCP. However,
the network port on the phone may or may not be disabled, depending on the switch configuration.
Certificates and Private Key Information
If the certificates and private key are NOT stored in the phone:
the phone connects to an open unauthenticated VLAN and the certificates are downloaded.
or
the phone connects using EAP-MD5 to a restricted VLAN and the certificates are downloaded.
If the certificates and private key ARE stored in the phone, the phone uses them during the authentication process.
If the phone uses EAP-TLS for successful authentication, after the phone reboots, it downloads the latest certificates
and private key files to the phone.
The private key uses AES-128 to encrypt the private key file.
Switch Supplicant Mode - The switch supports the following 2 modes:
Single supplicant - This mode enables the port once any machine connected to this port is authenticated. For
security reasons, the IP phone has the option to disable the pass-through port.
Multiple supplicants - Using this mode, the switch can support multiple clients connected to same port. The
switch distinguishes between the clients based on their MAC address.
Factory default and recovery mode deletes all certificates and private keys, and sets the EAP type to disabled.
You can configure the 802.1x feature on the IP phone using the configuration files, the IP Phone UI, or the Aastra Web UI.
5. Enter the certificate file names and the private key file name in the appropriate fields.
The Root and Intermediate Certificate files contain one root certificate and zero or more intermediate certificates which must be placed in
order of certificate signing with root certificate being the first in the file. If the local certificate is signed by some well known certificate
authority, then that authority provides the user with the Root and Intermediate Certificate files (most likely just CA root certificate).
The Trusted Certificate files define a list of trusted certificates. The phone’s trusted list must contain the CA root certificates for all the servers
it is connecting to. For example, if the phone is connecting to server A which has a certificate signed by CA1, and server B, which has a cer-
tificate signed by CA2, the phone must have CA1 root certificate and CS2 root certificate in its Trusted Certificate file.
Notes:
If configuring TLS, you must specify the files for Root and Intermediate Certificates, the Local Certificate, the Private Key, and the Trusted
Certificates in order for the phone to receive calls.
If configuring Persistent TLS, you must specify the Trusted Certificates (which contains the trusted certificate list). All other certificates and
the Private Key are optional.
The certificate files and Private Key file names must use the format “.pem.
To create custom certificate files and private key files to use on your IP phone, contact Aastra Technical Support.

Symmetric UDP Signaling
By default, the IP phones use symmetric UDP signaling for outgoing UDP SIP messages. When symmetric UDP is enabled,
the IP phone generates and listens for UDP messages using port 5060.
You can manually disable symmetric UDP signaling using the IP phones configuration file. When you disable symmetric
UDP signaling, then the IP phone chooses a random source port for UDP messages.
The IP phone also chooses a random source port for UDP messages to the registrar if you configure a backup registrar
server. Likewise, the IP phone chooses a random source port for UDP messages with regards to communication with the
respective proxy server if you configure a backup proxy server or backup outbound proxy server. If you configure a backup
registrar server as well as a backup proxy server and/or a backup outbound proxy server, one random source port will be
used for all UDP messages (i.e. for communication with the proxy server[s] and for registration).
An Administrator can configure symmetric UDP signaling using the configuration files only.
Configuring Symmetric UDP Signaling Using the Configuration Files
You use the following parameter to enable or disable Symmetric UDP Signaling in the configuration files:

Symmetric TLS Signaling
The IP phones also use symmetric TLS signaling for outgoing TLS SIP messages by default. When symmetric TLS is enabled,
the IP phone uses port 5061 as the persistent TLS connection source port.
Administrators can manually disable symmetric TLS signaling using the IP phone’s configuration files. When you disable
symmetric TLS signaling, the IP phone chooses a random persistent TLS connection source port from the TCP range (i.e.
49152...65535) for TLS messages after each reboot regardless of whether the parameter sip outbound support is enabled
or disabled.

GRUU and sip.instance Support
Globally Routable User-Agent URIs (GRUUs) provide a way for anyone on the Internet to route a call to a specific instance
of a User-Agent.
The IP phones provide GRUU support using draft-ietf-sip-gruu-15. A sip.instance is added to all non-GRUU contacts. By
default, this feature is enabled. You can enable or disable this support using the configuration files.
Limitations of the GRUU Feature
The following are limitations of the GRUU feature on the phones:
GRUU-Draft-15 is not compatible with versions prior to GRUU-Draft-10.
Phones do not support temporary or phone-created GRUUs.
Enabling/Disabling GRUU and sip.instance Support
Use the following procedure to enable/disable GRUU and sip.instance support.
Multi-Stage Digit Collection (Billing Codes) Support (for Sylantro Servers)
The IP Phones support Multi-Stage Digit Collection (billing codes) for Sylantro Servers. Sylantro Server features, like man-
datory and optional billing codes, requires that the application server notify the phone to collect more digits before com-
pleting the call. The IP phone is able to collect digits in two stages to support the billing code feature.
Aastra IP Phone users are prompted to enter the correct billing code when they dial these numbers:
External numbers.
Eternal numbers dialed using a Speed Dial key.
Billing Codes Implementation Notes
Note the following implementation information:
IP phone users may enter a 2-9 digit billing code. Billing codes may not start with either 0 (Operator) or 9 (external calls).
When using Sylantro Click-to-Call, IP phone users select a billing code from a pull-down menu.
When placing a call, a secondary dial tone alerts IP phone users to enter the billing code. The IP phone UI also displays a
“Enter Billing Code” message.
If an IP phone user redials a number, they do not have to re-enter the billing code. The billing code information is main-
tained and processed accordingly.
If an IP phone user enters an invalid billing code, the call fails.
Mandatory versus Optional Billing Codes
This release of the Aastra IP phones supports two types of billing codes: Mandatory and Optional. The Sylantro server con-
figuration determines which type of billing code is used on the IP phones.
Mandatory billing codes: Calls are not connected until the user enters a valid billing code. The user dials the phone
number. When prompted for billing codes, user dials the billing code.
For example, suppose the IP phone user is using billing code 300, and dialing the external number 617-238-5500. The IP
user then enters the number using the following format:
6172385000#300
Configuration Files
For the specific parameter you can set in the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section, “GRUU and sip.instance Support” on pageA-211.
Advanced Operational Features
6-28 41-001343-02 REV04 – 05.2014
Using mandatory billing codes, if the user is configuring a Speed Dial number, then they enter the number using the
following format:
<phonenumber>%23<billingcode>
To use this format with the default dial plan terminator (#), the # sign required by Sylantro as a delimiter should be
represented as an escaped character by using the sequence %23. The speed dial format for an external number that
includes a mandatory billing code becomes:
<phonenumber>%23<billing code>
Optional billing codes: The user dials an optional billing code by dialing *50, followed by the billing code digits.
When prompted for additional digits, user enters the phone number.
For example, suppose the IP phone user is using billing code 500, and dialing the external number 617-238-5000. The
IP user then enters the number using the following format:
*50500#6172385000
If the user is dialing configuring a Speed Dial number, then they enter the number using the following format:
*50<billingcode>#<phonenumber>
To use this format with the default dial plan terminator (#), the # sign required by Sylantro as a delimiter should be
represented as an escaped character by using the sequence %23. The speed dial format for an external number that
includes an optional billing code becomes:
*50<billing code>%23<phone number>
Numbers Not Requiring Billing Codes
Billing codes are not required for the following two types of calls:
Emergency calls (E911)
Calls between extensions
Configurable DNS Queries
The domain name system (DNS) is the way that Internet domain names are located and translated into Internet Protocol
addresses. A domain name is a meaningful and easy-to remember identifier for an Internet address.
The lists of domain names and IP addresses are distributed throughout the Internet in a hierarchy of authority within a
database of records. There is usually a DNS server within close proximity to your geographic location that maps the
domain names in your Internet requests or forwards them to other servers in the Internet.
The IP Phones may be configured to issue requests for DNS records using one of three methods. In the first method, the
IP phones issue requests for “A” records from the DNS server. In the second method, the IP phones issue requests for
SRV” records from the DNS server. In the third method, the IP phones issue requests for NAPTR records from the DNS
server. However, the IP phones do not use the NAPTR record to determine whether to use a secure or unsecure commu-
nication path (see the following table for a description of each method).
When the IP phone accesses the IP network, it issues a DNS lookup request to find the IP address and port and then waits
for a response from the DNS service that provides the IP address and port.
Note:
Whether or not the phone will operate/communicate in a secure or unsecure mode is ONLY determined by the pre-
provisioning of the phone (i.e. the .cfg file).
Advanced Operational Features
41-001343-02 REV04 – 05.2014 6-29
You can configure the phone to use any one of these methods by entering the applicable value in the configuration files:
Configuring the DNS Query Method
You can configure the DNS query method for the phone to use for performing DNS lookups using the following parameter
in the configuration files:
sip dns query type
Ignore Out of Sequence Errors
An Administrator can configure the phone via the “sip accept out of order requests” parameter to ignore CSeq number
errors on all SIP dialogs on the phone. When this parameter is enabled, the phone no longer verifies that the sequence
numbers increase for each message within a dialog, and does not report a "CSeq Out of Order" error if they do not
increase.
An Administrator can enable/disable this feature using the configuration files only.
Configuration
File Value DNS Server Method Used Description
0 A only The phone issues requests for “A” (Host IP Address) records from the DNS server to get the IP
address, and uses the default port number of 5060.
1 SRV & A The phone issues requests for “SRV” (Service Location Record) records from the DNS server to get
the port number. Most often, the IP address is included in the response from the DNS server to
avoid extra queries. If there is no IP address returned in the response, the phones send out the
request for “A” records from the DNS server to find the IP address.
2 NAPTR & SRV & A First, the phone sends "NAPTR" (Naming Authority Pointer) lookup to get the “SRV” pointer and
service type. For example, if Global SIP transport protocol on the phone is “UDP, and Proxy server
on the phone is “test.aastra.com”, then:
1. If the NAPTR record is returned empty, the phone will use the default value “_sip._udp.test.aas-
tra.com" for the “SRV” lookup.
2. If the NAPTR record is returned "test.aastra.com SIP+D2U .... _sip._udp.abc.aastra.co m", the
phone will use “_sip._udp.abc.aastra.com" for the “SRV” lookup.
3. If the NAPTR record is returned "test.aastra.com SIP+D2T .... _sip._tcp.test.aastra.com", where
the service type TCP mismatches the phone configured transport protocol “UDP”, the phone will
ignore this value and use the default value “_sip._udp.test.aastra.com" for the “SRV” lookup.
Note:
The phone does not use the service type sent by the NAPTR response to switch its transport pro-
tocol, nor does it use the NAPTR response to determine whether to use a secure or unsecure com-
munication path. The phone will always use a global sip protocol that is configured on the phone
via configuration files or the web user interface.
After performing NAPTR, the phone sends “SRV” lookup to get the IP address and port number. If
there is no IP address in the “SRV” response, then it sends out an “A” lookup to get it.
Note:
On the phone side, if you configure the phone with a Fully- Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) proxy and specified port,
the phone always sends “A only” lookups to find the Host IP Address of the proxy.
Configuration Files
For the specific parameter you can set in the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section, “DNS Query Setting” on pageA-211.
Note:
As the default Asterisk configuration does not fully track dialogs through a reboot, it is recommended that this param-
eter be enabled when using the BLF feature with an Asterisk server. If you do not enable this feature, then rebooting the
Asterisk server may cause BLF to stop working. With this parameter enabled, the BLF key starts working again when the
phone re-subscribes, which by default, are one hour apart.

Enabling/Disabling “Out of Order SIP Requests”
Use the following procedure to enable/disable “out of order SIP requests.
“Early-Only” Parameter in Replaces Header RFC3891
The phones support the “early-only” parameter in the “Replaces” header as referenced in RFC3891. When the phone
receives a Replaces header with the early-only parameter, it replaces the existing dialog if the call is still in the early state.
If the call has been answered, then the Replaces request is rejected.
Switching Between Early Media and Local Ringing
Previous to release 2.6, the phone generated a local ring tone when receiving a 180 response unless early media was
being played, regardless of SDP. The local ring tone stopped when the first RTP packet was received in the early session.
The local ring tone did not resume when it received subsequent 180 responses, even though early media was not being
received.
In Release 2.6 and up, the phone supports switching between early media and local ring tone. Upon receiving a 180
response, the phone now generates a local ring tone unless it is receiving an early media flow. If the phone receives any
subsequent 180 responses, it regenerates the local ring tone unless it is receiving early media flow.
Enable Microphone During Early Media
The phones now allow Administrators to enable or disable the microphone during early media by configuring the “sip
early media mute mic” parameter. Early media indicates the period when a call has not fully established (i.e. the far end
has not answered the call). By enabling this parameter, Administrators can mute the microphone during early media to
prevent the far end from listening into the call prior to answering it.
Enabling/Disabling “Microphone During Early Media
Use the following procedure to enable/disable “microphone during early media:
“Call-Info” Header to 200ok Responses for Shared Call Appearance (SCA)
Lines
In earlier versions of the IP phone software releases, a "Call-Info" header was only added to the requests generated by
the phone for Shared Call Appearance (SCA) lines. A “Call-Info” header ia now also included in the 200ok response to an
INVITE, RE-INVITE, and UPDATE messages for SCA lines. No configuration is required for this feature.

Reason Header Field in SIP Message
The IP Phones support the receiving of the Reason Header Field in a SIP CANCEL message, as described in RFC3326. This
allows a call that is answered from somewhere else to still display in the Callers List. Also, the missed calls indicator and
counter do not change.
Limitation
If the call is answered somewhere else, the duration of the call does not display in the Callers List.
Call Failed Message
Administrators can place certain restrictions on users for making outgoing calls (for example, only allow national calls, only
allow internal calls, only allow emergency calls, etc.). Previously when a restriction was active and a user dialed a number
that was not allowed, the PBX sent a certain status code 4xx and the phone displayed “Call Failed” or “Busy, which was not
very informative to the user.
Now when an outgoing call fails with a status code 4xx or 5xx, the phone will look for the Reason Header (RFC 3326) in the
status message and display the Reason Header to the user. The reason text is displayed in the center of the screen and is
limited to 20 characters.
If there is a Reason Header in the status code message, the reason text (if any) will be displayed on the phone. The tone that
is played follows the status code (i.e., the busy tone for 486 and 503, and the call failed tone for all others).
If there is no Reason Header in the status message, the behaviour of the phone should be unchanged:
“Busy” is displayed for the status codes 486 and 503 (SERVICE UNAVAILABLE) and the busy tone will be played,
or “Call Failed” is displayed for status codes 4xx to 5xx and the call failed tone will be played,
or “Not Configured” or “Seize Failed” is displayed in case of an internal error,
or “Unavailable” is displayed in case of code less support (6735i, 6767i, 6755i, 6757i, 6757i CT, 6867i, 9480i, and 9480i CT
phones only).
Configurable “Allow” and “Allow-Event” Optional Headers
On the IP Phones, an Administrator can enable or disable whether or not the optional “Allow” and “Allow-Events” headers
are included in the NOTIFY message from the phone.
SIP NOTIFY messages from the phone may contain optional headers called “Allow” and “Allow-events”. If the NOTIFY mes-
sage contains these headers, the UDP packet returned by the server may be too large and may fragment the packet. To
prevent the fragmenting of the UDP packet, the “Allow” and Allow-events” headers may be removed using the parameter,
sip notify opt headers. If this parameter is set to “0” (disabled), the optional headers are not included in the SIP NOTIFY
message which reduces the size of the packet returned by the server, and prevents fragmentation of the packet.
The value set for this parameter specifies whether or not to include the optional headers in the SIP NOTIFY message from
the phone.
An Administrator can enable/disable the optional “Allow” and “Allow-Event” headers using the following parameter in the
configuration files:
sip notify opt headers
Enabling/Disabling Optional “Allow” and “Allow-Event” Headers
Use the following procedure to enable/disable “Allow” and “Allow-Event” headers.

Configurable SIP P-Asserted Identity (PAI)
The IP Phones support a private extension to SIP for Asserted Identity within trusted networks (as defined in RFC 3325).
This feature allows a network of trusted SIP servers to assert the identity of authenticated users, and verify that phone
messages originate from a Trusted Identity. Upon receiving a message from a caller in the Trusted Network, the IP phone
reads the contents of the P-Asserted-Identity (PAI) header field and displays it on the phone UI. This field contains a more
accurate description of the caller identity (extension/phone number) than is contained in the SIP message.
When an IP phone receives an incoming call, the IP phone performs the following actions:
Checks to see if the incoming call is from a registered proxy server.
If the call is forwarded via a registered proxy server, then the message has already been verified and authenticated by
the server. The caller is part of the Trust Network. The IP phone UI displays the caller information contained in the PAI
header.
If the call is not forwarded via a registered proxy server - and therefore is not a “Trusted Entity” - the IP phone UI does
not display any trust information contained in the PAI header.
The phones provide the ability for the Administrator to enable or disable the display of P-Asserted Identity (PAI) informa-
tion on the phone using the following parameter in the configuration files:
sip pai
Enabling/Disabling P-Asserted Identity (PAI)
Use the following procedure to enable/disable PAI.
Notes:
The phones support PAI header in the UPDATE message, according to draft-ietf-sipping-update-pai-00. This feature
is always enabled.
If an UPDATE is received with a PAI header from a trusted source, the phone updates the display with this information.
The phone ignores any PAI received from untrusted entities.

proxies that do not support Route headers.
Enabling/Disabling the Route Header in the SIP Packet
Use the following procedure to enable/disable the addition of the Route header in the SIP packet.
Configurable Compact SIP Header
The phones provide a feature that allows an Administrator to shorten the length of a SIP packet by using the compact
form. This feature is in accordance with Compact SIP Headers defined in RFC 3261.
For example, the following SIP header is the long format:
Via: SIP/2.0/UDP 10.50.91.2:5060;branch=z9hG4bK571ebe0c;rport=5060;received=10.50.91.2
From: "Unknown" <sip:Unknown@10.50.91.2>;tag=as19d00fc8
To: <sip:1106@10.50.110.54:5060;transport=udp>;tag=916699998
Call-Id: 73cad5456806f3a7768d17e8617279d7@10.50.91.2
CSeq: 102 OPTIONS
The following SIP header is equivalent to the above SIP header, but uses the short (compact) format instead:
v: SIP/2.0/UDP 10.50.91.2:5060;branch=z9hG4bK571ebe0c;rport=5060;received=10.50.91.2
f: "Unknown" <sip:Unknown@10.50.91.2>;tag=as19d00fc8
t: <sip:1106@10.50.110.54:5060;transport=udp>;tag=916699998
i: 73cad5456806f3a7768d17e8617279d7@10.50.91.2
CSeq: 102 OPTIONS
By default, the IP Phones use the long format. However, an Administrator can provision the short (compact) format using
the configuration files. The Aastra Web UI does not support this configuration feature.
Enabling/Disabling the Compact SIP Headers Feature
Use the following procedure to enable/disable the Compact SIP Header in the SIP packet.
Reject INV or BYE when Unsupported Value in REQUIRE Header
The IP Phones support the following parameter:

XML URI for Key Press Simulation
The phones provide a feature that allow an XML Developer or Administrator to define XML Key URIs that can send key
press events to the phone, just as if the physical hard key, softkey, or programmable key were pressed on the phone.
When the Key URI event is sent from the server to the phone, the phone initiates the event as if the key was physically
pressed. If the key is not present on the phone (hard key) or not available (softkey or programmable key), when the
phone receives the URI, the event is discarded. If you are in the process of changing the softkey or programmable key
setting, or the key is disabled while the event is being processed, the request is discarded. The phone maps key events to
its physical keys and not to its mapped logical keys.
The following table identifies the XML URIs for pressing buttons on the phone..

Domain Name System (DNS) Server Pre-caching Support
The IP phones now support the use of a local DNS host file to resolve DNS queries, and supports pre-provisioning of DNS
SRV records. This feature allows administrators to configure the phone to download a text file which contains persistent
DNS “A record” hostname to IP address mappings. In addition, support for persistent DNS “SRV records” has been added
to permit SRV based high availability of services.
There are two methods used to configure DNS pre-caching on the IP phone:
Configure a unix style “host” file used instead of a DNS “A query” to resolve hostnames to IP addresses. The host file is
downloaded and cached on the IP phone.
Configure DNS “SRV queries” for geographic redundancy and failover. The configured SRV entries are used to pre-load
the DNS cache on the IP phone.
Both these methods are configurable using the configuration files only, and are primarily intended for use when a third
party hosting provider delivers SIP services but does not have local access or control of the LAN side DNS infrastructure.
Configuring DNS “Host File” Pre-caching from the Configuration Server
The DNS host file must reside on the same server as the configuration files (aastra.cfg/.tuz, etc.) and the filename to
download is specified within the configuration.
Use the following parameter to configure the phone to use the host file for host IP address lookups.
The following procedure is an example of how to use the “sip dns host file” parameter to configure DNS lookup pre-cach-
ing from the configuration server.
Note:
Time-to-Live (TTL) used in this feature is hard-coded for each server and not configurable.
Configuration Files
For the specific parameter you can set in the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section, “DNS Host File on pageA-214.

41-001343-02 REV04 – 05.2014 6-37
Configuring “DNS Host” Pre-caching
Configuring DNS “Service (SRV) Records” Pre-caching
In addition to using a host file to resolve host names to IP addresses, an Administrator can also configure DNS “SRV
records” (Service Records) for geographic redundancy and failover between application servers in the network.
The SIP registration and SIP proxy features on the phones previously allowed the use of server queries only to live DNS
servers. Using the host file and specific DNS SVR parameters extends this mechanism to allow pre-configuration of server
values in the aastra.cfg file. The following new parameters are used for this feature:
sip dns srvX name
sip dns srvX priority
sip dns srvX weight (supported in a future release)
sip dns srvX port
sip dns srvX target
You can configure up to 4 DNS SRV records, with each server having a priority which tells the phone which server to use,
and a host name or target. The IP phone will use the DNS SRV record with the lowest-numbered priority value first, and
will only failover to other records if the connection with this record's host fails. Thus a service may have a designated
failover server, which is only used if the primary server fails.
If a service has multiple SRV records with the same priority value, the IP phone(s) use the weight field to determine which
host to use. The weight value is a ratio compared to the weight of other records with the same name and priority value.
1. Using a text-based editing application, create a blank text file
2. Enter the IP addresses of the DNS servers in your local network. For example:
1.2.3.4 server1
5.6.7.8 server2
9.0.1.2 server3
Note:
Ensure each line uses a Carriage Return (CR) or Carriage Return + Line Feed (CRLF) to terminate the line.
3. Save the file as “<filename>.txt”. F o r ex am p le , hostfile.txt.
4. Using a text-based editing application, open the aastra.cfg file for the phone(s) for which you want to apply the DNS hostfile.
5. Enter the following parameter in the aastra.cfg file followed by the host file name as the value:
sip dns host file: <filename>.txt
For example:
sip dns host file: hostfile.txt
Note:
If using a text file on a PC to enter this value, you must enter a carriage return (CR) after entering the host file name.
6. Save the file. Make sure the aastra.cfg and the hostfile.txt files are on the configuration server in your network before downloading to the
phone(s).
7. Restart the phone(s) in your network.
The phone(s) downloads the specified host text file and stores it locally on the phone’s flash memory. Upon each subsequent boot of the
phones, if the host text file is available on the configuration server, it is downloaded to replace the locally cached copy; otherwise, the pre-
viously cached copy is retained and used unchanged.
The configuration of the phone(s) can now use server1, server2, or server3 for SIP or other services instead of using the IP addresses. The
phones will continue resolving the host names even if DNS on the network has conflicting or missing entries for server1, server2, or server3,
or if the local LAN DNS server fails to respond.
Note:
The “X” indicates a DNS SRV with a value from 1 to 4.
Note:
The “sip dns srvX weight” parameter must be configured but the phones will support this feature in a future release.

The first three records (SRV 1, 2, and 3) share a priority of 10, so the weight field's value is used by the phones to load bal-
ance across the three target host names.
Bigbox will get 60% of the load, and smallbox1 and smallbox2 will each get 20% load.
If all three servers with priority 10 are unavailable, the next highest priority record is selected, in this case backupbox.
This could be a server in another physical location.
The server entries in the aastra.cfg file can use DNS hostnames or can use IP addresses. If hostnames are used, any pre-
cached DNS A records via the host file mechanism are used before resorting to live DNS query if there is no local match.
For example, the following hostfile.text uses IP addresses that are used in the DNS server queries:
hostfile.txt
192.168.2.3 bigbox.example.com
192.168.3.4 smallbox1.example.com
192.168.8.1 smallbox2.example.com
47.28.05.69 backupbox.example.com
Use the following procedure in the configuration files to configure DNS server query support for the phones.
Use the following procedure to configure DNS SRV record pre-caching.

Configurable Transport Protocol for SIP Services and RTCP Summary
Reports
Parameters have been implemented allowing administrators the ability to independantly configure the transport proto-
cols used by SIP services (e.g. the SIP XML Notify service) and RTCP summary reports. The following parameters are avail-
able to be defined in the configuration files:
SIP Services
sip services transport protocol
sip services port
The above parameters are used to specify the transport protocol and port used for SIP services.
RTCP Summary Reports
sip rtcp summary reports transport protocol
The above parameter is used to specify the transport protocol used for RTCP summary reports.
Use the following procedure in the configuration files to configure the transport protocol for SIP services and RTCP sum-
mary reports.
Configurable Alphanumeric Input Order for Username Prompts
A configuration parameter username alphanumeric input order is available for the 6730i, 6731i, 6753i , 6863i, 6865i,
and 9143i IP phones allowing administrators the ability to change the default behavior of the keypad input order during
username prompts. . By default, keypad input order during username prompts changes from uppercase letters to the
respective digit and then to lowercase letters with each successive press of the key. For example, when pressing “2” on
the keypad, the following will be input with each successive press:
Note:
The parameter "sip symmetric udp signaling" is effective when the transport protocol for RTCP summary reports is
set to be UDP. For more information on symmetric udp signaling, refer to Symmetric UDP Signaling on page 6-25.
When the SIP transport protocol is set to TCP and the RTCP summary reports transport protocol is set to UDP, if an
outbound proxy is configured, all SIP requests including RTCP summary reports will be sent over TCP.
In cases where the SIP services transport protocol is the same as the SIP transport protocol or RTCP summary reports
transport protocol, only the SIP services port is enabled (the phone listens on the SIP services port as well as the local
SIP port if they are different [if they are the same, no extra action is needed]).

Active Voice-over-IP (VoIP) Recording
Active VoIP recording is supported by the IP phones. When using the IP phones with an Aastra call manager supporting
voice recording and a recording system with the predefined subset of the SIP interface, administrators can configure the
phones to send duplicate copies of the transmit and receive RTP or SRTP voice packets to the voice recording system.
Both dynamic (i.e. per call) and static (i.e. per the duration that the phone is registered) recording sessions are supported
by the IP phones. Additionally, administrators have the option of enabling a Record-On-Demand feature allowing users
to initiate and terminate a call recording session at their discretion. The call recording sessions are initiated by the voice
recording system and when the session is established, the IP phone will duplicate all of its incoming and outgoing
RTP/SRTP packets and send them to the voice recording system where they can be archived and analyzed as required.
Administrators must configure a whitelist for voice recording system authentication using the “recorder addressN
parameters (where N is a number from 1 to 6). These parameters are used to specify trusted IP addresses corresponding
to the voice recording system. The IP phone will check and respond to SIP messages coming from these IP addresses. If
all of these parameters are left undefined, the active VoIP recording feature is disabled.
A whitelist can also be configured for RTP/SRTP packet destination authentication using the “recording destinationN
parameters (where N is a number from 1 to 6). These parameters are used to specify trusted IP addresses corresponding
to the destination where the RTP/SRTP packets should be sent. The IP phone will check to see if the destination IP
addresses are trusted before sending the duplicated RTP/SRTP packets. If all of these parameters are left undefined, no
authentication checks will be performed.
When a recording session is in progress, the respective IP phones display the following recording icons on screen:
Notes:
Currently, the active VoIP recording feature is only supported when using the Aastra MX-ONE call manager (v4.1 or
5.0) in conjunction with ASC’s EVOip 10.0 voice recording system. Support for additional call managers and voice
recording systems will be implemented in future releases.
The active VoIP recording feature is disabled by default.
Notes:
Please contact your Aastra MX-ONE account manager for details on how to configure and utilize the Record-On-
Demand feature.
As the RTP/SRTP packets sent to the voice recording system are duplicate copies, the codec used for the original call as
well as the recording are identical as well. If active VoIP recording is required, ensure that the IP phone is configured to
use the G.711 or G.729 codec as these are currently the only two codecs supported by ASC’s EVOip 10.0 voice recording
system.

Moreover, the phone will, by default, play a periodic audible beep tone through the selected audio path notifying users
that their call is being recorded. Playback of the beep tone is configurable and if required, administrators can disable or
set the playback interval of the beep tone by defining the “recording periodic beep” parameter in the configuration
files. Additionally, by utilizing the “recording beep direction“ parameter, administrators can define whether the beep
tone is audible locally, remotely, or both.
Use the following procedure in the configuration files to configure the active VoIP recording feature.
BroadSoft BroadWorks Executive and Assistant Services Feature
The 6730i, 6731i, 6753i, 6755i, 6757i, 6757i CT, 9143i, 9840i, and 9840i CT IP phones support the BroadSoft BroadWorks
Executive and Assistant Services feature. The Executive and Assistant Services feature allows Administrators to create an
inter-network relationship between Executives and Assistants allowing calls to the Executives phone to be screened, fil-
tered, and routed to an Assistant, whereby the Assistant can answer, divert the filtered call, or push the call back to the
Executive.
Configuration Parameters
After configuring the applicable options on the BroadSoft Broadworks call manager Web portal, Administrators must
define the newly introduced “sip execassist filter call prefix”, sip execassist fac call push”, a n d sip execassist fac ini-
tiate call” parameters for the phone.
The “sip execassist filter call prefix” parameter is used to identify the prefix of the Alerting Custom Calling Line ID
Name of a filtered call. The Alerting Custom Calling Line ID Name as configured in the BroadWorks Web portal should fol-
low the format:
[prefix] [Identifier] -> [Executive Name]
Warning!
The recording icon is displayed on the IP phones to indicate the recording session is active and that a duplicate copy
of the RTP/SRTP stream is to be sent from the phone to the recording server. The overall recording and its quality is
dependent on the recording server and the network.
Note:
In addition to the aforementioned parameters corresponding to the active IP voice recording feature, the transport pro-
tocol parameters for SIP services (i.e. “sip services transport protocol” and “sip services port”) must also be defined in
the configuration files. See Configurable Transport Protocol for SIP Services and RTCP Summary Reports on page6-40
for more information.
Configuration Files
For the specific parameter you can set in the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section, Active VoIP Recording Settings” on pageA-218.
Note:
This feature is not supported for the 6735i, 6737i, 6863i, 6865i, and 6867i in Release 3.3.1 SP3.
Notes:
The inter-network relationship is created dynamically through the BroadSoft BroadWorks call manager Web portal.
For BroadSoft BroadWorks Executive and Assistant Services Web portal configuration details and procedures, please
refer to the respective BroadSoft documentation.
For details on how to configure and utilize the BroadSoft BroadWorks Executive and Assistant Services feature from
a users perspective, please refer to the respective phone model’s Aastra SIP IP Phone User Guide.

The Executive Name must match the name that is configured in the user’s profile, separated by a space or comma.
For example, if the “Alerting Custom Calling Line ID Name” setting in the BroadWorks Web portal is defined as “[F] Filtrage
-> Dupont, Francois, the From header of a filtered call sent by the BroadWorks SIP INVITE message will look similar to:
From:”[F] Filtrage -> Dupont, Francois"
<sip:5551234567@as.aastra.com;user=phone>
The “sip execassist filter call prefix”parameter in this scenario could be defined as:
sip execassist filter call prefix: "[F]"
The Assistants phone will parse the From header of the SIP INVITE message of an incoming call sent by the call manager
and will identify whether or not the call is a filtered call by the prefix. The prefix itself is not displayed on the phones screen
(e.g. in the case outlined above, the phone will only display “Filtrage -> Dupont, Francois”).
The “sip execassist fac call push” parameter is used to specify the Feature Access Code (FAC) that is used to push a filtered
call from the Assistant’s phone back to the Executives phone. The FAC should correspond to the value configured for the
“Executive-Assistant Call Push” setting defined in the BroadSoft Web portal.
The “sip execassist fac initiate call” parameter is used to specify the FAC that is used by Assistants to initiate a call on
behalf of the Executive. The FAC should correspond to the value configured for the “Executive-Assistant Initiate Call” set-
ting defined in the BroadSoft Web portal.
Use the following procedure in the configuration files to configure the BroadSoft BroadWorks Executive and Assistant
Services feature.
Filter Softkey
In addition to the parameters, the “Filter” softkey type has been introduced allowing both Executives and Assistants the
ability to easily activate and deactivate the Executive Call Filtering feature.
Filter Softkey for the Executives Phone
The Executives phone requires that only one Filter softkey be configured. The Filter softkeys value can either be left unde-
fined (which will toggle the Executive Call Filtering settings on the call manager via the SIP SUBSCRIPTION/NOTIFY mecha-
nism) or, it can be defined using the following values (which will toggle the settings via an FAC call):
Executive Call Filtering Activation FAC (e.g. “#61”)
Used when the Deactivation FAC is in the same format as the Activation FAC but sequentially one number above the
Activation FAC. For example, if the softkey value is defined as #61 (the Activation FAC), the phone will automatically
assume that the Deactivation FAC is “#62” and will use that code to deactivate Executive Call Filtering.
Executive Call Filtering Activation FAC followed by a semi-colon and then Executive Call Filtering Deactivation FAC (e.g.
“#61;*61” or “#61;#71”)
Used when the Activation and Deactivation FACs are not in the same format or when they are not sequential. For
example, if the Activation FAC is configured in the BroadSoft BroadWorks Web portal is “#61” and the Deactivation FAC
is configured as “*61” or “#71”, the softkey value should be defined with the two specific FACs separated by a semi-
Note:
The Alerting Calling Line ID Number can either be configured as the Executives Number or Originator’s Number.
Configuration Files
For the specific parameter you can set in the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section, “BroadSoft BroadWorks Executive and Assistant Services

Notes:
The As-Feature Event Subscription option must also be enabled for the Filter softkey to function. This feature can be
enabled by defining the “sip lineN as-feature-event subscription” parameter as “1” in the configuration files (where
“N” corresponds to the applicable line) or through the phone’s Web UI under Advanced Settings > LineN >
Advanced SIP Settings > As-Feature-Event Subscription. Refer to As-Feature-Event Subscription on page 6-11 for

Filter Softkey for the Assistant’s Phone
As an Assistant can be associated with multiple Executives simultaneously, the Assistant’s phone can be configured with
multiple Filter softkeys; one softkey for each Executive. In this case, the value of each Filter softkey should correspond to
the phone number or extension of the respective Executive as per configured in the user’s profile.
When Filter softkeys are configured with key values, pressing the respective Filter softkey will activate Executive Call Filter-
ing for the applicable Executive and the softkeys corresponding LED will be lit. When the same Filter softkey is pressed
again, Executive Call Filtering for the applicable Executive will deactivate and the softkey’s corresponding LED will turn off.
Alternatively, a single Filter softkey can be configured without a defined key value. If this is the case, the Assistant will be
able to manually activate and deactivate Executive Call Filtering for each associated Executive through the phones UI. In
this scenario, as only one Filter softkey is utilized, the softkey’s corresponding LED will be lit when Executive Call Filtering is
activated for even one associated Executive. If Executive Call Filtering is disabled for all associated Executives, the softkey’s
corresponding LED will turn off.

Speeddial Softkey with Initiate Call Functionality (Assistants Only)
Speeddial softkeys can be configured to efficiently utilize the Executive-Assistant Initiate Call function. With a Speeddial
softkey configured for this feature, Assistants can initiate a call on behalf of an Executive, whereby the call will appear to
the target as one originated by the Executive himself/herself. The Speeddial softkeys value can be defined using the fol-
lowing syntax:
Executive-Assistant Initiate Call FAC (e.g. “#64”):
In such scenarios, the call manager will play an audible prompt asking you to enter the Executives Address and Des-
tination Address manually using the keypad.
Executive-Assistant Initiate Call FAC followed by the Executives Address (e.g. “#644052”):
In such scenarios,
only the Destination Address will need to be manually entered using the keypad.
Executive-Assistant Initiate Call FAC, followed by the Executives Address, an asterisk, and then the Destination Address
(e.g. “#644052*4059”):
In such scenarios, addresses will not need to be manual entered and the phone will automatically initiate the call to
the target phone on behalf of the Executive.

Encrypted Files on the IP Phone
41-001343-02 REV04 – 05.2014 7-2
Encrypted Files on the IP Phone
An encryption feature for the IP phone allows Service Providers the capability of storing encrypted files on their server to
protect against unauthorized access and tampering of sensitive information (i.e., user accounts, login passwords, registra-
tion information). Service Providers also have the capability of locking a phone to use a specific server-provided configura-
tion only.
Configuration File Encryption Method
Only a System Administrator can encrypt the configurations files for an IP Phone. System Administrators use a password
distribution scheme to manually pre-configure or automatically configure the phones to use the encrypted configuration
with a unique key.
From a Microsoft Windows command line, the System Administrator uses an Aastra-supplied configuration file encryption
tool called "anacrypt.exe" to encrypt the <mac>.tuz file.
This tool processes the plain text <mac>.cfg, <model>.cfg, and aastra.cfg files and creates triple-DES encrypted versions
called <mac>.tuz, <model>.tuz, and aastra.tuz. Encryption is performed using a secret password that is chosen by the
administrator.
The encryption tool is also used to create an additional encrypted tag file called security.tuz, which controls the decryption
process on the IP phones. If security.tuz is present on the TFTP/FTP/HTTP server, the IP phones download it and use it
locally to decrypt the configuration information from the aastra.tuz and <mac>.tuz files. Because only the encrypted ver-
sions of the configuration files need to be stored on the server, no plain-text configuration or passwords are sent across
the network, thereby ensuring security of the configuration data.
To make changes to the configuration files, the System Administrator must save the original files.
The security feature described above prevents unauthorized parties from reading or writing the contents of the
<MAC>.tuz file. It also provides the following:
Prevents users from using the <MAC>.tuz file that does not match the users phone MAC address.
Renders the <MAC>.tuz file invalid if the user renames the file.
Works with IP phone releases prior to Release 2.2.
Provides compatibility between the previous encryption routine and the new decryption routine.
Note:
Aastra also supplies encryption tools to support Linux platforms (anacrypt.linux) if required.
Note:
If the use of encrypted configuration files is enabled (via security.tuz or pre-provisioned on the IP phone) the aastra.cfg,
<model>.cfg, and <mac>.cfg files are ignored, and only the encrypted equivalent files aastra.tuz, <model>.tuz, and
<mac>.tuz are read.

Procedure to Encrypt Configuration Files
To encrypt the IP phone configuration files (using a Microsoft Windows OS):
C:\> anacrypt.exe -h
Provides encryption of the configuration files used for the
family of Aastra IP phones.
Copyright (c) 2005-2012, Aastra Technologies, Ltd.
Usage:
anacrypt {infile.cfg|-d <dir>} [-p password] [-m] [-i] [-v] [-h]
Examples
The following examples illustrate the use of the anacrypt.exe file.
Example 1
Generating a security.tuz file with password 1234abcd:
For firmware version 3.3.1 (enhanced security):
C:\>anacrypt -i -p 1234abcd -v3
1. Obtain the anacrypt encryption tool (anacrypt.exe) from your Aastra representative.
2. Open a command line window application (i.e. DOS window).
3. At the prompt, enter anacrypt.exe and press <Return>.
4. Enter a command utilizing the details provided in the help screen.
Anacrypt Switch Description
{infile.cfg | -d <dir>} Specifies that all .cfg files in <dir> should be encrypted.
[-p password] Specify password used to generate keys.
-m Generate MAC.tuz files that are phone specific. This switch generates files that are
only usable for phones with firmware version 2.2.0 and above.
-v1 Specifies the version of encryption that the anacrypt tool uses. Use version 1 encryption (i.e. -v1) to generate files that
are readable by all model phones.
-v2 (Default) Specifies the version of encryption that the anacrypt tool uses. Use version 2 encryption (i.e. -v2) to generate
files that are readable by phones with firmware 2.2.0 and above.
-v3 (Enhanced security version) Specifies the version of encryption that the anacrypt tool uses. Use version 3 encryption
(i.e. -v3) to generate files that are readable by phones with firmware 3.3.1 and above.
-i Generate security.tuz file.
-h Show the help screen.
Notes:
Configuration files that are encrypted using v3 encryption can only be decoded by phones on Release 3.3.1 (and
above).Customers with v3-encrypted configuration files will lose the ability to decode the files (and in turn will lose
all previously configured settings) if they downgrade their phones to any firmware release prior to 3.3.1.
An incorrect password produces garbage. For site-specific keyfile security.cfg the plaintext must match the pass-
word.
Encrypted Files on the IP Phone

or
C:\>anacrypt -i -p 1234abcd -v2
For any firmware version:
C:\>anacrypt -i -p 1234abcd -v1
Example 2
Encrypting a single aastra.cfg file with password 1234abcd (for firmware version 3.3.1):
C:\>anacrypt aastra.cfg -p 1234abcd -v3
Example 3
Encrypting a <mac>.cfg file with password 1234abcd (for firmware version 3.3.1):
C:\>anacrypt 00085d000000.cfg -p 1234abcd -v3
Example 4
Encrypting a <mac>.cfg file with password 1234abcd using MAC encryption (for firmware version 3.3.1):
C:\>anacrypt 00085d000000.cfg -m -p 1234abcd -v3
Example 5
Encrypting all cfg files in C:\data with password 1234abcd using MAC encryption and generating a security.tuz file at the
same time (for firmware version 3.3.1):
C:\>anacrypt -d C:\data -p 1234abcd -m -i -v3
Example 6
Encrypting all cfg files in C:\data with password 1234abcd and generating a security.tuz file at the same time (for firmware
version 3.3.1):
C:\>anacrypt -d C:\data -p 1234abcd -i -v3
Vendor Configuration File Encryption
Some vendors can have specific methods to encrypt files on their configuration servers. For each phone, the configuration
server can generate a random hex string (encryption key) that is used to encrypt the phones MAC-specific configuration
file.
The encryption key is placed in a plain text MAC-specific configuration file that the server downloads to the phone. After
the phone receives the file, it updates the encryption key.
This method of encryption does not affect the implementation of the Aastra method of file encryption.
You can set the phone-specific encryption key using the configuration files only.
For more information about configuration file encryption, contact Aastra Technical Support.
Note:
The aastra.cfg file is not encrypted with this feature.

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1-49.
You can download the firmware stored on the configuration server in one of three ways:
Using theFirmware 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 net-
work 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.

Restarting the Phone Using the Aastra Web UI
Using the Auto-Resync Feature
The auto-resync feature on the IP phones allows an administrator to enable the phone to be updated automatically once a
day at a specific time in a 24-hour period if the files on the server have changed. This feature works with TFTP, FTP, HTTP,
and HTTPS servers. An administrator can enable this feature using the Aastra Web UI or using the configuration files (aas-
tra.cfg, <model>.cfg, and <mac>.cfg).
An Administrator can enable Auto-Resync using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI. In the configuration files you
set the following parameters:
auto resync mode - Determines whether the configuration server automatically updates the phones configuration
files only, the firmware only, both the firmware and configuration files, or disables automatic updates. This parameter
works with TFTP, FTP, HTTP, and HTTPS servers.
auto resync time - Sets the time of day in a 24-hour period for the IP phone to be automatically updated. This parame-
ter works with TFTP, FTP, HTTP and HTTPS servers.
auto resync max delay - Specifies the maximum time, in minutes, the phone waits past the scheduled time before
starting a checksync.
auto resync days - Specifies the amount of days that the phone waits between checksync operations.
2. Select Restart. The following prompt displays:
“Restart phone?”
3. Select Ye s or press the Restart softkey to restart the phone
or
Select No or press the Cancel softkey to go back to the Options Screen.

In the Aastra Web UI, you can set the following parameters at the path Advanced Settings->Configuration Server->Auto-
Resync:
Mode
Time (24 hours)
Maximum Delay
Days
Setting the “auto resync max delay” (Maximum Delay) and “auto resync days” (Days) parameters can greatly reduce the
load placed on the configuration server when downloading configurations.
Reloading of Directory Files and Background Image During an Auto-Resync
During an auto-resync, the IP phones have the ability to initiate a comparison of its local directory files with those
located on the configuration server and automatically update the local directory files if changes are detected. For the
6739i, the background image is redownloaded and updated at this time as well.
If the auto-resync mode is set to” Configuration Files (1)” or “Both (3)”, either through the IP phones Web UI or configura-
tion files, when the phone reaches the configured auto-resync date/time, the phone will perform a comparison on the
directory files and trigger a reboot if differences are found. For the 6739i, in addition to the directory file comparison, the
background image will be redownloaded and updated. No reboot is necessary if the background image is the only file
that has changed.
If the auto-resync mode is set to “None (0)” or “Firmware Info (2)” and the phone reaches the configured auto-resync
date/time, the directory files will not be checked (and the background image for the 6739i will not be redown-
loaded/updated) .
Enabling Auto-Resync Using the Configuration Files
Use the following procedure to configure automatic updates of the IP phone firmware, configuration files, or both.
Note:
Irrespective of the auto-resync feature, if the phone receives a check-sync NOTIFY, the directory file comparison (and
background image update for the 6739i) will be performed and the applicable files will be automatically updated as
required.
Configuration Files
For specific parameters you can set in the configuration files for automatic update, see Appendix A, the section, “Configuration Server Settings” on
pageA-16.
Notes:
If a user is accessing the Aastra Web UI, they are not informed of an auto-reboot.
Any changes made using the Aastra Web UI or the IP phone UI are not overwritten by an auto-resync update. Auto-
resync affects the configuration files only. However, the settings in the Aastra Web UI take precedence over the IP
phone UI and the configuration files.
If the IP phone is in use (not idle) at the time of the resync check, the reboot occurs when the phone becomes idle.
The resync time is based on the local time of the IP phone.
The automatic update feature works with both encrypted and plain text configuration files.

Notes:
If a user is accessing the Aastra Web UI, they are not informed of an auto-reboot.
Any changes made using the Aastra Web UI or the IP phone UI are not overwritten by an auto-resync update. Auto-resync affects the con-
figuration files only. However, the settings in the Aastra Web UI take precedence over the IP phone UI and the configuration files.
The resync time is based on the local time of the IP phone.
If the IP phone is in use (not idle) at the time of the resync check, the reboot occurs when the phone becomes idle.
3. In the Time (24-hour)” field, select the time that you want the update to take place.
Valid values are 00:00 to 23:30 (in 30 minute increments).
Notes:
The resync time is based on the local time of the IP phone.
The value of 00:00 is 12:00 A.M.
When selecting a value for this parameter in the Aastra Web UI, the values are in 30-minute increments only.
4. In the Maximum Delay” field, specify the maximum time, in minutes, the phone waits past the scheduled time before starting a checksync.

Error Messages Display
An Administrator can view generated error messages that may have occurred during startup or reboot of the IP Phones.
The IP Phone UI has a selection on the Phone Status page called, “Error Messages” at the location, Options->Phone Status-
>Error Messages. The Aastra Web UI also allows you to view these error messages at the location Advanced Settings->Trou-
bleshooting->Error Messages. These options allow you to view error messages generated by modules during startup only
(not after registration has completed). You can use this information for troubleshooting purposes or for reporting the
errors to the Administrator.
The IP Phone stores and displays up to 10 error messages (any extra error messages beyond 10 are discarded). The time
and date of each error message also displays. After a reboot, the previous error messages are discarded and, if applicable,
new error messages display. If there are no error messages during startup or after a reboot, the message, “No Error Mes-
sages” displays on the screen. Error messages display in the language currently set on the phone.
The following table identifies the possible error messages that may display.

Viewing the Error Messages Using the Aastra Web UI
Use the following procedure to view the error messages, if any, that generated during startup.
Warning Message Display
Previously when a phone fails to download from the first configuration server as listed in the Fully Qualified Domain
Name (FQDN) server list, it attempts to download from the other servers from the list. If the phone successfully down-
loads from the alternate server, it would display an Error message on the idle screen. This Error message is now classified
as a Warning message and is not displayed to the end user on the idle screen.
Administrators will see the warning message along with other error messages in the Web UI (Advanced Settings ->
Troubleshooting -> Error Messages) or on the Phone UI (Options Key -> Phone Status -> Error Messages).
Configuration and Crash File Retrieval
In addition to using the Troubleshooting page in the Aastra Web UI, an Administrator can also use three new configura-
tion parameters in the configuration files to enable/disable the uploading of support information to a pre-defined
server. These parameters are:
upload system info server - Specifies the server for which the phone sends the system and crash files.
upload system info manual option - Enables and disables the ability to manually upload support information from
the IP Phone UI and Aastra Web UI.
upload system info on crash - Enables and disables the watchdog to automatically reboot the phone and send a
crash file to the pre-defined server.
When this feature is enabled (configuration files only), support files can be automatically or manually generated and
uploaded when the server detects a phone failure. An Administrator or User can manually send the files when required
using the IP Phone UI or the Aastra Web UI. Each time the files are generated and uploaded, a new timestamp on the file
name is created so that existing files are not overwritten on the server. File names are generated in the format
MAC ID_Date_Time_server.cfg, MAC ID_Date_Time_local.cfg, and MAC ID_Date_Time_crash.cfg
Aastra Web UI
1. Click on Advanced Settings->Troubleshooting->Error Messages.
2. Scroll down to the “Error Messages” section to view the error messages that may have generated during startup or reboot of the IP Phone.
Notes:
The phone performs the generation and sending of Support Information in the background. This feature does not
affect the use or operation of the phone.
During a startup or reboot of the phone, an upload of Support Information is automatically generated and sent to
the pre-defined server.
This feature supports the TFTP, FTP, HTTP, and HTTPS protocols.

The following table identifies the methods you can use to retrieve support information from the phone to the pre-defined
server when the above configuration parameters are enabled.
When this feature is enabled, the phone sends the following support information files to the server:
Server.cfg - File in the format MAC ID_Date_Time_server.cfg that contains configuration information from the aas-
tra.cfg, the <model>.cfg, and the <mac>.cfg files. The MAC address, date, and time are specified in the file name to
identify the phone sending the information, and the date and time the file was generated and sent to the server.
(for example, 00093D435522_2010-02-25_1141am_server.cfg)
Local.cfg - File in the format MAC ID_Date_Time_local.cfg that contains information of locally modified values made
using the Aastra Web UI and/or the IP Phone UI. The MAC address, date, and time are specified in the file name to iden-
tify the phone sending the information, and the date and time the file was generated and sent to the server.
(for example, 00043D199345_2010-02-26_1030am_local.cfg)
Crash.cfg - (only generated if an error or crash occurs on the phone) File in the format MAC ID_Date_Time_crash.cfg
that contains information about a current phone error/crash causing a reboot of the phone . The MAC address, date,
and time are specified in the file name to identify the phone sending the information, and the date and time the file was
generated and sent to the server.
(for example, 00033D000111_2010-02-27_0204pm_crash.cfg)

Troubleshooting Solutions
Description
This section describes solutions to some most common problems that can occur while using the IP phones.
Why does my phone display “Application missing”?
If you have experienced networking issues while the phone was downloading the application from the TFTP server, it is
possible that the phone can no longer retrieve the required firmware file. In the event that the phone is no longer able to
communicate with the TFTP server in its attempt to re-download the firmware and the phone cannot locate the applica-
tion locally, the message "Application missing" displays.
The phone also displays the following: “Recovery web-client at: <IP Address>”. The IP Address displayed is the IP address of
the phone. If the phone is unable to receive an IP from the DHCP server or has lost its record of its static IP, the phone auto-
assigns itself the default IP 192.168.0.50.
To recover the firmware for your phone in this circumstance, please perform the following:
Please ensure that the TFTP server is running and accessible on the network. If the firmware file is correctly located on the
running TFTP server, the phone will locate the file and reload the application onto the phone.
Why does my phone display the “No Service” message?
The phone displays the “No Servicemessage if it is not able to successfully register with the Registrar. If the Registrar is up
and running the SIP settings may not have not been set up correctly.
The Registrar server could be set to 0.0.0.0. A global value of 0.0.0.0 disables registration. However, the phone is still active
and you can dial using username@ip address of the phone. The phone displays "No Service".
If the Registrar IP address is set to 0.0.0.0 for a per-line basis (i.e., line 1, line 2, etc.), then the register request is not sent, the
"No Service" message does not display, and the message waiting indicator (MWI) does not come on.
Check that the "Registrar Server" IP address in the Aastra Web UI at Advanced Settings->Global SIP is correct. Check the
"sip registrar ip" parameter in the configuration files is correct.
1. Launch your web browser on your computer.
Note:
Your computer needs to be on the same network as your IP Phone.
2. In the URL, type: “http://<IP Address>” (where IP Address is the IP Address displayed on the phone). Your browser launches the
Aastra IP Phone Firmware Recovery page.
3. Call Customer Support and request a <phone model>.st file.
4. Copy the file to your TFTP server.
5. Enter the <phone model>.st file that is ready for download.
6. Enter the IP address or qualified domain name of the TFTP server.
7. Press the Download Firmware button.
Troubleshooting Solutions
9-13 41-001343-02 REV04 – 05.2014
Why does my phone display "Bad Encrypted Config"?
The IP phone displays "Bad Encrypted Config" because encrypted configuration files are enabled but the decryption
process has failed. Specific cases where decryption fails are:
Reason
The site-specific password in security.tuz does not match the password used to encrypt the <mac>.tuz or aastra.tuz files.
Fix
Encrypt the .cfg files to .tuz using the correct password, or replace the security.tuz with the correct encrypted file.
Reason
Neither of the <mac>.tuz and aastra.tuz files are present on the configuration server (TFTP/FTP/HTTP).
Fix
Create the encrypted files using anacrypt.exe and copy them to the configuration server.
Reason
The encrypted <mac>.tuz or aastra.tuz file is encrypted using a different version of anacrypt.exe than the phone
firmware.
Fix
Run "anacrypt.exe -v" and confirm that the correct version is reported, compared to the phone firmware version.
Why is my phone not receiving the TFTP IP address from the DHCP Server?
For DHCP to automatically populate the IP address or qualified domain name for the TFTP server, your DHCP server must
support Option 66. Option 66 is responsible for forwarding the TFTP server IP address or domain name to the phone
automatically. If your DHCP server does not support Option 66, you must manually enter the IP address or qualified
domain name for the TFTP server into your IP phone configuration.
Additionally, the phone may not be receiving the TFTP IP address if there are other DHCP servers within the same broad-
cast domain providing different Option 66 (TFTP server) settings. See “DHCP on page 4-3 for more information on
option precedence.
For procedures on configuring the TFTP server using the IP phone UI and the Aastra Web UI, see Chapter 4, the section,
“Configuring the Configuration Server Protocol” on page4-87.
For specific protocol parameters you can set in the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section, “Configuration Server
Settings on page A-16.

Setting Parameters in Configuration Files
41-001343-02 REV04 – 05.2014 A-6
Setting Parameters in Configuration Files
You can set specific configuration parameters in the configuration files for configuring you IP phone. The aastra.cfg,
<model>.cfg, and <mac>.cfg files are stored on the server. The aastra.cfg file stores global IP phone configuration settings.
The <model>.cfg file contains model specific information. The <mac>.cfg file stores configuration settings specific to the IP
phone with that MAC address. When you restart the IP phone, these files are downloaded to the phone.
If you make changes to the phone configuration, the changes are stored in a local configuration on the phone (not on the
server).
Configuration changes made to the <model>.cfg file override the configuration settings in the aastra.cfg file. Configura-
tion changes made to the <mac>.cfg file override the configuration settings in the <model>.cfg and aastra.cfg files.
Reference
For information about configuration file precedence, see Chapter 1, the section, Configuration File Precedence on
page1-51.
This section includes the following types of configurable parameters:
Operational, Basic, and Advanced Parameters on pageA-6

Parameter
auto resync mode Configuration Files
aastra.cfg, <model>.cfg, <mac>.cfg
Description Determines whether the configuration server automatically updates the configuration
files only, the firmware only, both the firmware and configuration files, or disables auto-
matic updates.
This parameter works with TFTP, FTP, HTTP and HTTPS servers.
Valid values are:
None (0) - Disable auto-resync
Configuration Files (1) - Updates the configuration files on the IP phone automati-
cally at the specified time if the files on the server have changed.
Firmware (2) - Updates the firmware on the IP phone automatically at the specified
time if the files on the server have changed.
Both (3) - Updates the configuration files and firmware automatically at the specified
time if the files on the server have changed.
Notes:
If a user is accessing the Aastra Web UI, they are not informed of an auto-reboot.
Any changes made using the Aastra Web UI or the IP phone UI are not overwritten by an
auto-resync update. Auto-resync affects the configuration files only. However, the set-
tings in the Aastra Web UI take precedence over the IP phone UI and the configuration
files.
The resync time is based on the local time of the IP phone.
If the IP phone is in use (not idle) at the time of the resync check, the reboot occurs
when the phone becomes idle.
The automatic update feature works with both encrypted and plain text configuration
files.
Format Integer
Default Value 0
Range 0 (none)
1 (configuration files only)
2 (firmware only)
3 (configuration files and firmware)

A-23 41-001343-02 REV04 – 05.2014
Parameter
auto resync time Configuration Files
aastra.cfg, <model>.cfg, <mac>.cfg
Description Sets the time of day in a 24-hour period for the IP phone to be automatically updated.
This parameter works with TFTP, FTP, HTTP and HTTPS servers.
Notes:
The resync time is based on the local time of the IP phone.
The value of 00:00 is 12:00 A.M.
When selecting a value for this parameter in the Aastra Web UI, the values are in 30-
minute increments only.
When entering a value for this parameter using the configuration files, the value can be
entered using minute values from 00 to 59 (for example, the auto resync time can be
entered as 02:56).
Auto-Resync adds up to 15 minutes random time to the configured time. For example,
if the auto resync time parameter is set to 02:00, the event takes place any time between
02:00 and 02:15.
When the language on the phone is set to French or Spanish, you must enter the time
in the format "00h00" (configuration files only).
Format hh:mm
00h00 (for French and Spanish configuration files)
Default Value 00:00
Range hh = 00 to 23
mm = 00 to 59

The directory files, language packs, TLS certificate files, 802.1x certificate files, and HTTPS files can also be downloaded to
the phone from a server other than the configuration server. For each of these types of files, you can specify a URL (server
IP address) from which the phone gets these files. You can use existing parameters on the phone to specify the URL. For
more information about this feature, refer to Chapter 1, the section, “Directory Files, Language Packs, TLS Certificates,
802.1x Certificates, HTTPS Files and Multiple Configuration Servers” on page1-53.
For information on configuring the directory, language pack, TLS certificates, 802.1x certificates, and HTTPS parameters,
see the applicable parameters in this Appendix.
Parameter
firmware server Configuration Files
aastra.cfg, <model>.cfg, <mac>.cfg
Description Specifies either a full or partial URL of a server (other than the original configuration
server) from which the phones in the network get their firmware.
Note:
The default method for the update of firmware to the phones is from the original con-
figuration server. The Administrator must specify a correct server URL for the phones to
get their firmware information from that server. If the URL is incorrect, no firmware
download occurs to the phones from the specified server.

sip nat rtp port
Configuration Files
aastra.cfg, <model>.cfg, <mac>.cfg
Description Indicates the port through which the RTP packets are sent. This value must specify the
beginning of the RTP port range on the gateway or router.
The RTP port is used for sending DTMF tones and for the audio stream. Your network
administrator may close some ports for security reasons. You may want to use this param-
eter to send RTP data using a different port.
Note:
The phones support decoding and playing out DTMF tones sent in SIP INFO requests. The
following DTMF tones are supported:
Support signals 0-9, #, *
Support durations up to 5 seconds
Format Integer
Default Value 51720
Range Not Applicable
Example sip nat rtp port: 51730

Rport Setting
Local SIP UDP/TCP Port Setting
Parameter
sip rport Configuration Files
aastra.cfg, <model>.cfg, <mac>.cfg
Description Allows you to enable (1) or disable (0) the use of Rport on the IP phone.
“Rport” in RFC 3581, allows a client to request that the server send the response back
to the source IP address and the port from which the request came.
Note:
Configuring the Rport parameter is recommended for clients behind a Network
Address Translation (NAT) or firewall.
Format Boolean
Default Value 0
Range 0 (disable)
1 (enable)
Example sip rport: 1
Parameter
sip local port
Configuration Files
aastra.cfg, <model>.cfg, <mac>.cfg
Description Specifies the local source port (UDP/TCP) from which the phone sends SIP messages.
Format Numeric
Default Value 5060
Range Greater than 1024 and less than 65535
Notes:
It is recommended that you avoid the conflict RTP port range in case of a UDP trans-
port.
By default, the IP phones use symmetric UDP signaling for outgoing UDP SIP mes-
sages. When symmetric UDP is enabled, the IP phone generates and listens for UDP
messages using port 5060.If symmetric UDP signaling is disabled, the phone sends
from random ports but it listens on the configured SIP local port.
Example sip local port: 5060
Operational, Basic, and Advanced Parameters
A-27 41-001343-02 REV04 – 05.2014
Local SIP TLS Port
SIP STUN Parameters
Parameter
sip local tls port Configuration Files
aastra.cfg, <model>.cfg, <mac>.cfg
Description Specifies the local source port (SIPS/TLS) from which the phone sends SIP messages.
Format Numeric
Default Value 5061
Range Greater than 1024 and less than 65535
Notes:
It is recommended that you avoid the conflict with any TCP ports being used. For
example: WebUI HTTP server on 80/tcp and HTTPS on 443/tcp.
By default, the IP phones use symmetric TLS signaling for outgoing TLS SIP messages.
When symmetric TLS is enabled, the IP phone uses port 5061 as the persistent TLS
connection source port. When symmetric TLS signaling is disabled, the IP phone
chooses a random persistent TLS connection source port from the TCP range (i.e.
49152...65535) for TLS messages after each reboot regardless of whether the param-
eter “sip outbound support” is enabled or disabled.
Example sip local tls port: 5061
Parameter
sip stun ip
Configuration Files
aastra.cfg, <model>.cfg, <mac>.cfg
Description IP address and/or qualified domain name of the STUN server (also know as Simple
Traversal of UDP through NAT).
STUN is a protocol that governs the exchange of data over a UDP connection by com-
munication devices operating behind a NAT or firewall. Since the behaviors of NATs can
be different, the STUN protocol allows the exchange of data to be consistent over any
type of NAT.
The STUN/TURN configuration is only used for media (RTP traffic) that goes through
the server - not for signaling. (For signaling, you need to enable Rport if the NAT device
does not recognized SIP).
The STUN/TURN configuration applies globally to each phone.
If you configure both STUN and TURN on the phone, it discovers what type of NAT
device is between the phone and the public network. If the NAT device is full cone,
restricted cone, or port restricted cone, the phone uses STUN. If the NAT device is sym-
metric, the phone uses TURN. If you configure STUN only, the phone uses STUN with-
out the NAT discovery process.
Notes:
The NAT IP configuration parameter takes precedence over the STUN and TURN
parameters.
STUN does not work if the NAT device is symmetric.
Format IP Address or Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN)
Default Value 0.0.0.0
Range Two (2) IP addresses or domain names separated by a comma
Note:
The first is the primary and the second is the backup.
Example sip stun ip: 10.50.103.12, stunbackup.aastra.com

SIP TURN Parameters
Parameter
sip stun port Configuration Files
aastra.cfg, <model>.cfg, <mac>.cfg
Description Port number of the STUN server (also know as Simple Traversal of UDP through NAT)
Notes:
The NAT IP configuration parameter takes precedence over the STUN and TURN
parameters.
STUN does not work if the NAT device is symmetric.
Format Integer
Default Value 3478
Range 0 to 65535 (One (1) or two (2) port numbers separated by a comma)
Note:
The first is the primary and the second is the backup.
Example sip stun port: 3478,3479
Parameter
sip turn ip Configuration Files
aastra.cfg, <model>.cfg, <mac>.cfg
Description IP address and/or qualified domain name of the TURN server (also known as Traversal
Using Relay NAT).
TURN is a protocol that governs the reception of data over a Transmission Control Pro-
tocol (TCP) or a UDP connection by a single communications device operating behind
a NAT or firewall. A TURN server relays packets from an external IP address towards an
internal device only if that internal device has previously sent a packet through the
same TURN server to that particular external IP address.
The STUN/TURN configuration is only used for media (RTP traffic) that goes through
the server - not for signaling. (For signaling, you need to enable Rport if the NAT device
does not recognized SIP).
The STUN/TURN configuration applies globally to each phone.
If you configure both STUN and TURN on the phone, it discovers what type of NAT
device is between the phone and the public network. If the NAT device is full cone,
restricted cone, or port restricted cone, the phone uses STUN. If the NAT device is sym-
metric, the phone uses TURN. If you configure TURN only, the phone uses TURN with
the NAT discovery process. TURN is compatible with all types of NAT devices but can be
costly since all traffic goes through a media relay (which can be slow, can exchange
more messages, and requires the TURN server to allocate bandwidth for calls).
Note:
The NAT IP configuration parameter takes precedence over the STUN and TURN
parameters.
Format IP Address or Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN)
Default Value 0.0.0.0
Range Two (2) IP addresses or domain names separated by a comma
Note:
The first is the primary and the second is the backup.

Default Value 0
Range Any positive integer
Example sip keepalive timer: 6
Parameter
https client method
Configuration Files
aastra.cfg, <model>.cfg, <mac>.cfg
Description Defines the security method that the client advertises to the server during the Secure
Socket Layer (SSL) handshake. Available options are:
TLS 1.0 - Transport Layer Security version 1 (TLS 1.0) is a protocol that ensures privacy
between communicating applications and their users on the Internet. TLS is the suc-
cessor to SSL.

HTTPS Server Certificate Validation Settings
Parameter
https block http post xml Configuration Files
aastra.cfg, <model>.cfg, <mac>.cfg
Description Enables or disables the blocking of XML scripts from HTTP POSTs.
Some client applications use HTTP POSTs to transfer XML scripts. The phones’s HTTP
server accepts these POSTs even if server redirection is enabled, effectively bypassing the
secure connection. When this parameter is enabled (blocking is enabled), receipt of an
HTTP POST containing an XML parameter header results in the following response:
“403 Forbidden”. This forces the client to direct the POSTs to the HTTPS server through
use of the “https://” URL.
Format Boolean
Default Value 0 (disables blocking of XML HTTP POSTs)
Range 0 (disables blocking of XML HTTP POSTs)
1 (enables blocking of XML HTTP POSTs)
Example https block http post xml: 1
Parameter
https validate certificates
Configuration Files
aastra.cfg, <model>.cfg, <mac>.cfg
Description Enables or disables the HTTPS validation of certificates on the phone.
When this parameter is set to 1, the HTTPS client performs validation on SSL certificates
before accepting them.
Notes:
If you are using HTTPS as a configuration method, and use a self signed certificate, you
must set this parameter to “0” (disabled) before upgrading to Release 2.3 of the IP
Phones.
Defining this parameter as "0" (disabled) significantly reduces security for the provision-
ing process to encryption only. Validation of the chain-of-trust (i.e. the originator of the
files) will not be performed if this feature is disabled. Therefore, disabling HTTPS valida-
tion of certificates is only recommended for troubleshooting purposes or when self-
signed certificates are in use.
Format Boolean
Default Value 1 (enabled)
Range 0 (disabled)
1 (enabled)
Example https validate certificates: 0
Operational, Basic, and Advanced Parameters
41-001343-02 REV04 – 05.2014 A-32
Parameter
https validate expires Configuration Files
aastra.cfg, <model>.cfg, <mac>.cfg
Description Enables or disables the HTTPS validation of the expiration of the certificates.
When this parameter is set to 1, the HTTPS client verifies whether or not a certificate has
expired prior to accepting the certificate.
Note:
If the “https validate expires” parameter is set to enable, the clock on the phone must be
set for the phone to accept the certificates.
Format Boolean
Default Value 1 (enabled)
Range 0 (disabled)

aastra.cfg, <model>.cfg, <mac>.cfg
Description Specifies a file name for a .PEM file located on the configuration server. This file contains the
User-provided certificates in PEM format. These certificates are used to validate peer certifi-
cates.
Note:
You must disable the “https validate certificates” parameter in order for the phone to
accept the User-provided certificates.
You can use this parameter in three ways:
To download no certificates
To download a certificate from the original configuration server
To download a certificate from another specified server
To download a specific file, the string value MUST HAVE A FILENAME at the end of the string.
For example:
https user certificates: ftp://admin:admin!@1.2.3.4:50/path/phonesHTTPSUserCert.pem
where “path” is the directory and “phonesHTTPSUserCert.pem” is the filename. If you do not
specify a filename, the download fails.
See examples for each below.

LAN Port (Ethernet Port 0) Parameters
Parameter
vlan id Configuration Files
aastra.cfg, <model>.cfg, <mac>.cfg
Description Allows you to configure a VLAN ID that associates with the physical Ethernet Port 0 (LAN
port).
Notes:
Setting the “vlan id” to 4095 and “vlan id port 1” to any ID from 1 to 4094 will allow
frames from the PC port (containing a VLAN ID) to be untagged before being forwarded
to the LAN port and frames from the LAN port (without a VLAN ID) to be tagged with the
configured VLAN ID before being forwarded to the PC port.
Example:
You enable tagging on the phone port as normal but set the “vlan id” to 4095 and the
vlan id port 1 to any ID from 1 to 4094. The following example sets the PC port to be on
VLAN 3 but the LAN port is configured as untagged:
tagging enabled: 1
vlan id: 4095
vlan id port 1: 3
Alternatively setting the “vlan id” to any ID from 1 to 4094 and “vlan id port 1” to 4095
will allow frames from the LAN port (containing a VLAN ID) to be untagged before being
forwarded to the PC port and frames from the PC port (without a VLAN ID) to be tagged
with the configured VLAN ID before being forwarded to the LAN port.

Description Allows you to configure a VLAN ID that associates with the physical Ethernet Port 1 (PC
port).
Notes:
Setting the “vlan id port 1” to 4095 and “vlan id” to any ID from 1 to 4094 will allow
frames from the LAN port (containing a VLAN ID) to be untagged before being for-
warded to the PC port and frames from the PC port (without a VLAN ID) to be tagged
with the configured VLAN ID before being forwarded to the LAN port.
Example:
You enable tagging on the phone port as normal but set the “vlan id port 1” to 4095 and
the “vlan id ” to any ID from 1 to 4094. The following example sets the LAN port to be on
VLAN 3 but the PC port is configured as untagged:
tagging enabled: 1

Time Zone Name
Parameter
time zone name Configuration Files
aastra.cfg, <model>.cfg, <mac>.cfg
Description Assigns a time zone name to the time server.
The Custom option allows you to customize additional time zone parameters.
The DP-Dhcp option allows you to enable and disable a DHCP Option 2 value for the
phone to use as an offset from Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). If this parameter is
enabled, the phone derives the time and date from UTC and the time offset offered by
the DHCP server.
Notes:
Assigning the name “Custom” (with initial cap) in the configuration files, allows you to
create a custom time zone using the additional parameters in the section “Custom
Time Zone and DST Settings” on pageA-47.
When DHCP Option 2 is enabled on the phone, the phone still uses the custom time-
zone configuration settings to control daylight savings time.
The default behavior for the phone is to use the NTP server from Option 42 (or current
configuration setting) and the current timezone settings.
Format Text
Default Value US-Eastern
If the time zone name parameter is set to a value other than Dhcp, then DHCP Option 2
is disabled.
Range See “Time Zone Name/Time Zone Code Table on pageA-42 for specific time zone
names.
Custom (allows you to create a customized time zone).
DP-Dhcp (allows you to enable and disable a DHCP Option 2 value for the phone to use
as an offset from Coordinated Universal Time (UTC))
Example time zone name: US-Central
time zone name: Custom
time zone name: DP-Dhcp

ular telephone number. The SIP local dial plan is as follows:
Symbol Description
0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 Digit symbol
X Match any digit symbol (wildcard)
*, #, . Other keypad symbol; # can terminate
a dial string
| Expression inclusive OR
+ 0 or more of the preceding digit symbol
or [] expression
[] Symbol inclusive OR
- Used only with [], represent a range of
acceptable symbols; For example, [2-8]
,” (open/close quotes) In the configuration files, enter the sip dial
plan value using quotes.
.;. Used when a secondary dial tone is
required on the phone. (For example,
“9;xxxxxx”, when a user has to dial “9” to get
and outside line and needs a secondary dial
tone presented.
You can configure prefix dialing by adding a prepend digit to the dial string. For exam-
ple, if you add a prepend map of “[2-9]XXXXXXXXX,91, the IP phone adds the digits “91”
to any 10-digit number beginning with any digit from 2 to 9 that is dialed out. Other
examples of prepend mappings are:
1X+#,9 (Prepends 9 to any digit string beginning with “1” and terminating with “#”.)
6XXX,579 (Prepends “579” to any 4-digit string starting with “6”.)
[4-6]XXXXXX,78 (Prepends “78” to any 7-digit string starting with “4”, “5”, or “6”.
Format Alphanumeric characters
Default Value X+#|XX+*
Range Up to 512 alphanumeric characters.
If a User enters a dial plan longer than 512 characters, or a parsing error occurs, the
phone uses the default dial plan of “x+#|xx+*”. If this is the case, the Administrator can-
not change the dial plan from the configuration files. The dial plan must be changed
from the Aastra Web UI.
Example sip dial plan: "X+#|XXX+*"

Parameter
sip outbound support Configuration Files
aastra.cfg, <model>.cfg, <mac>.cfg
Description Enables and disables whether or not the phone uses Draft 15 (draft-ietf-sip-outbound-
15) support for SIP outbound packets.
A SIP User Agent (UA) behind a firewall, reuses an existing connection (usually the REG-
ISTER outbound connection) for the inbound request if the proxy supports it. The UA
uses keep-alive packets to monitor the connection status.
Notes:
If the Global SIP parameter “Persistent TLS” is set on the phone, then only one TLS per-
sistent connection can be established since the phone uses the local port 5061 for
connection. If the Global SIP parameter “TLS” is set on the phone, more than one con-
nection can be setup since the phone uses a random local port for connection.
This parameter must be enabled for this feature to start keep-alive for a particular
transport.

Parameter
sip lineN call waiting
(N is a line number from 1 to 9)
Configuration Files
aastra.cfg, <model>.cfg, <mac>.cfg
Description Allows you to enable or disable Call Waiting on the IP phone on a per line basis.
If you enable call waiting (default), the user has the option of accepting a second call while
currently on the first call. If you disable call waiting, and a user is currently on a call, a sec-
ond incoming call is automatically rejected by the phone with a busy message.
If you disable call waiting on the phone, and the user is on a call, any further incoming calls
will receive busy unless “Call Forward Busy” or “Call Forward No Answer and Busy” is con-
figured on the phone. It will then forward the call according to the rule configured. The
phone can only:
transfer the currently active call
or
accept transferred calls if there is no active calls.
If call waiting is disabled:
on the 6757i CT base, and the handset is currently on a call, all additional incoming calls
are rejected on the handset.
intercom calls are treated as regular incoming calls and are rejected.
pre-dialing with live dial pad disabled still accepts incoming calls.
the Missed Calls List does not get updated with details of calls.
the Blind Transfer feature on the phone may not work if two calls are made to the phone
at one time.

Also enter the following parameters in the configuration files to configure TLS:
Parameter
sips persistent tls Configuration Files
aastra.cfg, <model>.cfg, <mac>.cfg
Description Enables or disables the use of Persistent Transport Layer Security (TLS).
Persistent TLS sets up the connection to the server once and re-uses that connection for all
calls from the phone. The setup connection for Persistent TLS is established during the
registration of the phone. If the phones are set to use Persistent TLS, and a call is made
from the phone, this call and all subsequent calls use the same authenticated connection.
This significantly reduces the delay time when placing a call.
Notes:
There can be only one persistent TLS connection created per phone.
If you configure the phone to use Persistent TLS, you must also specify the Trusted Cer-
tificate file to use. The Root and Intermediate Certificates, Local Certificate, and Private
Key files are optional.
Format Boolean
Default Value 0 (disabled)
Range 0 (disabled)
1 (enabled)
Example sips persistent tls: 1
Parameter
sip persistent tls keep alive Configuration Files
aastra.cfg, <model>.cfg, <mac>.cfg
Description When enabled, the configured value indicates frequency (in seconds) that phone will
send the keep alive messages.
Format Integer
Default Value 0 (Disabled)
Range 0-3600
Example sip persistent tls keep alive: 10
Parameter
sip send sips over tls Configuration Files
aastra.cfg, <model>.cfg, <mac>.cfg
Description Allows administrators the ability to manually configure the IP phones to use either the SIP
or SIPS URI scheme when TLS or persistent TLS is enabled
Format Integer
Default Value 1 (Enabled)
Range 0-1
0 (Disabled - Use SIP URI scheme)
1 (Enabled - Use SIPS URI scheme)
Example sip send sips over tls: 0

Parameter
sips root and intermediate
certificates
Configuration Files
aastra.cfg, <model>.cfg, <mac>.cfg
Description Allows you to specify the SIP Root and Intermediate Certificate files to use when the phone
uses the TLS transport protocol to setup a call.
The Root and Intermediate Certificate files contain one root certificate and zero or more
intermediate certificates which must be placed in order of certificate signing with root cer-
tificate being the first in the file. If the local certificate is signed by some well known certif-
icate authority, then that authority provides the user with the Root and Intermediate Cer-
tificate files (most likely just CA root certificate).
This parameter is required when configuring TLS (optional for Persistent TLS.)
You can use this parameter in three ways:
To download no certificates
To download a certificate from the original configuration server
To download a certificate from another specified server
To download a specific file, the string value MUST HAVE A FILENAME at the end of the
string. For example:
sips root and intermediate certificates: ftp://admin:admin!@1.2.3.4:50/path/phonesRoot-
Cert.pem
where “path” is the directory and “phonesRootCert.pem” is the filename. If you do not
specify a filename, the download fails.
See examples for each below.
Note:
The certificate files must use the format “.pem. To create custom certificate files to use on
your IP phone, contact Aastra Technical Support.

configured CFWD key applies to the account in focus.
phone
The Phone mode allows you to set the same CFWD configuration for all accounts (All,
Busy, and/or No Answer). When you configure the initial account, the phone applies
the configuration to all other accounts. (In the Aastra Web UI, only the account you con-
figured is enabled. All other accounts are grayed out but set to the same configuration.)
Using the Aastra Web UI, if you make changes to that initial account, the changes apply
to all accounts on the phone.

The Custom mode allows you to configure CFWD for a specific account or all accounts.
You can configure a specific mode (All, Busy, and/or No Answer) for each account inde-
pendently or all accounts. On 3-Line LCD phones, you can set all accounts to ALL On or
ALL Off. On 8 and 11-Line LCD phones, you can set all accounts to All On, All Off, or
copy the configuration for the account in focus to all other accounts using a CopytoAll
softkey.
Notes:
If there is no CFWD key configured on the phone or it is removed, you can still set the
CFWD modes via the IP Phone UI at the path Options->Call Forward.
If there is only one account configured on the phone, then the mode setting is ignored
and the phone behaves as if the mode was set to “Phone”.
When configuring a CFWD mode (All, Busy, No Answer) for an account, you must config-
ure a CFWD number for that mode in order for the mode to be enabled.

Description Enables or disables the ability for the phone to initiate a continuous reminder tone on
the active call when another call is on hold. For example, when the call on Line 1 is on
hold, and the User answers a call on Line 2 and stays on that line, a reminder tone is
played in the active audio path on Line 2 to remind the User that there is still a call on
hold on Line 1.
When this feature is disabled, a ring splash is heard when the active call hangs up and
there is still a call on hold.

comes into Line 2 and you answer Line 2, Line 1 is automatically placed on hold. While on
the active Line 2, after 7 seconds, a ring splash audio sounds on the line reminding you
that the call on Line 1 is still on hold. This timer begins to increment after Line 2 is
answered.

Description Enables and disables suppression of DTMF playback when a number is dialed from the
softkeys or programmable keys.
When you disable the suppression of DTMF playback and you press a softkey or program-
mable key, the IP phone dials the stored number and displays each digit as dialed in the
LCD window. When you enable the suppression of DTMF playback, the IP phone dials the
stored number and displays the entire number immediately in the LCD window, allowing
the call to be dialed faster.

DTMF is the signal sent from the phone to the network that you generate when you press
the phone’s touch keys. This is also known as “touchtone” dialing. Each key you press on
your phone generates two tones of specific frequencies. One tone is generated from a
high-frequency group of tones and the other from a low frequency group.
If enabled, this parameter displays the digits on the IP phone display if you are dialing from
the keypad, or from a softkey or programmable key. This parameter is disabled by default
(no digits display when dialing).

provides applicable information. If the Directed Call Pickup over BLF information is
missing in the messages to the server, the Directed Call Pickup by Prefix method is
used if a value for the prefix code exists in the configuration.
You can define only one prefix, which will be applicable to all BLF- or BLF/List-moni-
tored extensions.
The phone that picks up displays the prefix code + the extension number (for exam-
ple, *981234 where prefix key = *98, extension = 1234).

Description The type of softkey to configure. Valid types are:
none - Indicates key is disabled.
line - Indicates key is configured for line use.
speeddial - Indicates key is configured for speeddial use. Speeddial is applicable to
the M670i, M675i, and M680i also. You can configure a key to speeddial a specific
number by pressing that key. Optionally, you can also configure a Speeddial key to dial
prefix numbers. With this option, the prefix numbers automatically dial when you
press the key, and the phone waits for you to enter the remaining numbers to dial out.
Note: When there is an active call, the Speeddial keys send DTMF digits through the
active voice path. To dial out, you have to first put the active call on hold and then
press the Speeddial key.
dnd - Indicates key is configured for do not disturb on the phone. This option is "Do
Not Disturb" in the Aastra Web UI). You must also set the DND key mode (see “DND
Key Mode on page5-73 and “DND Key Mode Settings” on pageA-127 for details).
blf - Indicates key is configured for Busy Lamp Field (BLF) use. User can dial out on a
BLF configured key. A maximum of 50 BLFs are applicable to the M670i , and M675i
also and a maximum of 48 BLFs are applicable to the M680i.

Web UI). User can dial out on a BLF/List configured key. You can also use the “BLF List
URI” parameter to specify a URI for the phone to access for the BLF/List.
acd - (for Sylantro Servers only) Indicates the key is configured for Auto Call Distribu-
tion (called “Auto Call Distribution” in the Aastra Web UI). The ACD feature allows the
Sylantro server to distribute calls from a queue to registered IP phone users (agents).
dcp - (for Sylantro Servers only) Indicates the key is configured for either Directed Call
Pickup or Group Call Pickup (called “Directed Call Pickup” in the Aastra Web UI). The
Directed Call Pickup/Group Call Pickup feature allows you to intercept or pickup a call

Description Allows you to specify which key types to display and the order in which to display them
in the “Type” list for the feature keys (CT models only) when configuring the keys in the
Aastra Web UI.
If no value is specified for this “feature key selection list” parameter, the key “Type” list
displays ALL of the key types by default in the Aastra Web UI.
Notes:
Any key types configured that do not apply to the phone’s environment are ignored.
An Administrator must use the English value when configuring the key types in the
configuration files.
Any key type already configured on a phone displays in that keys “Type” list, in addi-
tion to the values specified for this parameter.

1: Normal (same as current BLF ring splash).
2: Normal delayed (After a delay of [x] seconds, the ring signal that is the same as the
current BLF ring splash is played [use the “ring splash delay” parameter to define
the delay]).
3: Periodic (similar to the normal ring signal that is used by the phone itself. The
actual ring melody is based on the current melody set for the line to which the BLF
key is associated [use the “ring splash frequency” parameter to define the fre-
quency interval).
4: Periodic delayed (same as Periodic but after a delay of [x] seconds, the ring signal
that is used by the phone is played [use the “ring splash frequency” parameter to
define the frequency interval and the “ring splash delay” parameter to define the
delay]).

GRUU's for transfer are still enabled.
Format Boolean
Default Value 1 (enabled)
Range 0 (disabled)
1 (enabled)
Example sip gruu: 0
Parameter
sip dns query type Configuration Files
aastra.cfg, <mac>.cfg
Description Specifies the Domain Name Service (DNS) query method to use when the IP
Phones issue requests for DNS records using one of three methods: “A” only, SRV& A, and
NAPTR & SRV & A.
Format Integer
Default Value 1
Range A only - The phone issues requests for “A” (Host IP Address) records from the DNS server to
get the IP address, and uses the default port number of 5060.
SRV & A - The phone issues requests for “SRV” (Service Location Record) records from the
DNS server to get the port number. Most often, the IP address is included in the response
from the DNS server to avoid extra queries. If there is no IP address returned in the response,
the phones send out the request for “A” records from the DNS server to find the IP address.
NAPTR & SRV & A - First, the phone sends "NAPTR" (Naming Authority Pointer) lookup to get
the “SRV” pointer and service type. For example, if Global SIP transport protocol on the
phone is “UDP”, and Proxy server on the phone is “test.aastra.com, then:
If the NAPTR record is returned empty, the phone will use the default value
“_sip._udp.test.aastra.com" for the SRV” lookup.
If the NAPTR record is returned "test.aastra.com SIP+D2U .... _sip._udp.abc.aastra.com",
the phone will use “_sip._udp.abc.aastra.com" for the “SRV” lookup.
If the NAPTR record is returned "test.aastra.com SIP+D2T .... _sip._tcp.test.aastra.com",
where the service type TCP mismatches the phone configured transport protocol “UDP”,
the phone will ignore this value and use the default value “_sip._udp.test.aastra.com" for
the “SRV” lookup.
Note:
The phone does not use the service type sent by the NAPTR response to switch its transport
protocol, nor does it use the NAPTR response to determine whether to use a secure or unse-
cure communication path. The phone will always use a global sip protocol that is configured
on the phone via configuration files or web user interface.
After performing NAPTR, the phone sends “SRV” lookup to get the IP address and port
number. If there is no IP address in the “SRV” response, then it sends out an “A” lookup to get
it.
Note:
On the phone side, if you configure the phone with a Fully- Qualified Domain Name (FQDN)
proxy and specified port, the phone always sends “A only” lookups to find the Host IP
Address of the proxy.
Example sip dns query type: 2

Configuring the IP Phone at the Asterisk IP PBX
About this Appendix
This appendix describes how to setup a user’s phone with an extension to make and receive calls using the Asterisk as the
PBX.

IP Phone at the Asterisk IP PBX
The following configuration illustrates how to create a user with an extension to make and receive calls using the Aster-
isk as the PBX. This configuration is defined in the sip.conf file present along with the other configuration files that are
created when Asterisk is installed. Usually, the configuration files can be found at the /etc/asterisk directory.
;This is used in the “extensions.conf” file to identify this
;physical phone when issuing Dial commands.
[phone1]
;The type to use for the 6757i is “friend”.
;”Peer” is used when the Asterisk is contacting a proxy,
;”user” is used for phones that can only make calls
;and “friend” acts as both a peer and a user.
type=friend
;If your host has an entry in your DNS then you just enter the
;machines name in the host= field.
host=dynamic
defaultip=192.168.1.1 ;default IP address that the phone is
;configured to
;The password that phone1 will use to register with this PBX
secret=1234
dtmfmode=rfc2833;Choices are inband, rfc2833, or info
mailbox=1000 ;Mailbox for message waiting indicator
;If a phone is not in a valid context you will not be
;able to use it. In this example' sip' is used. You can use
;whatever you like, but make sure they are the same, you will
;need to make an entry in your extensions.conf file (which we
;will get to later)
context=sip
callerid="Phone 1" <1234>
IP Phone at the Asterisk IP PBX
41-001343-02 REV04 – 05.2014 B-3
After this is defined in the “sip.conf” file, some information has to be entered in the “extensions.conf” file present in the
same directory as the “sip.conf” file. The following definition in the file under the [sip]section/context completes defining
the extension for the 6757i phone:
exten -> 1234,1,Dial(SIP/phone1,20)
This definition completes configuring the 6757i phone at the IP PBX system.
To verify whether the extension has been successfully registered at the IP PBX system, enter the Asterisk console and
reload Asterisk. Use the command “sip show peers” at the console. This will display the extensions that are registered at
the IP PBX system.
This completes the basic set-up for the 6757i phone with 1234 extension at the Asterisk IP PBX system. Refer to Asterisk
documentation for set-up on extended or advanced features such as voicemail and call forwarding, etc.

Sample Configuration Files
This section consists of the sample configuration files necessary to configure the IP phones. The general format is similar to
configuration files used by several Unix-based programs. Any text following a number sign (#) on a line is considered to be
a comment, unless the # is contained within double-quotes. Currently, Boolean fields use 0 for false and 1 for true.
6757i Sample Configuration File
# Sample Configuration File
# ===========================
# Date: October 20th, 2005
# Phone Model: 6757i
# Notes:
#
# The general format used here is similar to configuration files
# used by several UNIX-based programs. Any text following a number
# sign (#) is considered to be a comment, unless the number sign is
# contained within double-quotes ("#") where it is considered to be
# a pound. For Boolean fields, 0 = false, 1 = true.
# Comments:
#
# This file contains sample configurations for the "aastra.cfg", <model>.cfg, or
# "<mac>.cfg" file. The settings included here are examples only.
# You should change/comment the values to suit your requirements.
#
# Not all possible parameters are shown, refer to the admin guide for
# the full list of supported parameters, their defaults and valid
# ranges.
#
# The Aastra 6737i, 6757i, 6757iCT, and 6753i phones will download 2
# configuration files from the TFTP server while restarting, the
# "aastra.cfg" file, the “<model>.cfg” file, and the "<mac>.cfg" file. These three configuration
# files can be used to configure all of the settings of the phone with
# the exception of assigning a static IP address to a phone and line
# settings, which should only be set in the "<mac>.cfg" file.
#
# The "aastra.cfg" file configures the settings server wide, the “<model>.cfg” file contains model specific
# information (for example, “6757i.cfg”), while the "<mac>.cfg" file configures only the phone with the MAC
# address for which the file is named (for example, "00085d0304f4.cfg"). The
# settings in the "aastra.cfg" file will be overridden by settings in the <model>.cfg file, and settings in the
# "<mac>.cfg" file override both settings in the “<model>.cfg” and the “aastra.cfg” files.

6757i CT Sample Configuration File
# Sample Configuration File
# =========================
# Date: October 26th, 2005
# Phone Model: 6757iCT
# Notes:
#
# The general format used here is similar to configuration files
# used by several UNIX-based programs. Any text following a number
# sign (#) is considered to be a comment, unless the number sign is
# contained within double-quotes ("#") where it is considered to be
# a pound. For Boolean fields, 0 = false, 1 = true.
# Comments:
#
# This file contains sample configurations for the "aastra.cfg", “<model>.cfg”, or
# "<mac>.cfg" file. The settings included here are examples only.
# You should change/comment the values to suit your requirements.
#
# Not all possible parameters are shown, refer to the admin guide for
# the full list of supported parameters, their defaults and valid
# ranges.
#
# The Aastra 6737i, 6757i, 6757iCT, and 6753i phones will download 2
# configuration files from the TFTP server while restarting, the
# "aastra.cfg" file, the “<model>.cfg” file, and the "<mac>.cfg" file. These three configuration
# files can be used to configure all of the settings of the phone with
# the exception of assigning a static IP address to a phone and line
# settings, which should only be set in the "<mac>.cfg" file.
#
# The "aastra.cfg" file configures the settings server wide, the “<model>.cfg” file contains model specific
# information (for example, “6757i.cfg”), while the "<mac>.cfg" file configures only the phone with the MAC
# address for which the file is named (for example, "00085d0304f4.cfg"). The
# settings in the "aastra.cfg" file will be overridden by settings in the <model>.cfg file, and settings in the
# "<mac>.cfg" file override both settings in the “<model>.cfg” and the “aastra.cfg” files.

# (1) The entered number is an exact match in the dial plan
# (2) The "#" symbol has been pressed
# (3) A timeout occurs
#
# The dial plan is a regular expression that supports the following
# syntax:

# 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,*,# : matches the keypad symbols
# x : matches any digit (0...9)
# + : matches 0 or more repetitions of the
# : previous expression
# [] : matches any number inside the brackets
# : can be used with a "-" to represent a
# : range
# () : expression grouping
# | : either or
#
#
# If the dialled number doesn't match the dial plan then the call
# is rejected.

#
# The feature keys are displayed when the user presses the F button
# on the cordless phone's hand set. If any changes to the features
# keys are made using these parameters the feature keys that exist on
# the hand set have to be refreshed. To refresh the feature keys
# simply open a new line or press one of the feature keys that are
# available from the hand set. After a couple of seconds the cordless
# should get the new list from the base set. There are 15 feature
# keys that can be configured for the cordless hand set. Each feature
# key has the following settings. N corresponds to the feature key
# that is being configured for and ranges from 0-14. Feature key N
# En label: "String" Feature key N Fr label: "Fr-String" Feature key
# N Sp label: "Sp-String" Feature key N control: 1 #Takes an
# integer value Feature key N hs event: 1 #Takes an integer value
# Feature key N base event: 1 #Takes an integer value

# Dial Plan Settings
# ====================
#
# Notes:
#
# As you dial a number on the phone, the phone will initiate a call
# when one of the following conditions are meet:
#
# (1) The entered number is an exact match in the dial plan
# (2) The "#" symbol has been pressed
# (3) A timeout occurs
#
# The dial plan is a regular expression that supports the following:
# syntax:
#
# 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,*,# : matches the keypad symbols
# x : matches any digit (0...9)
# + : matches 0 or more repetitions of the
# : previous expression
# [] : matches any number inside the brackets
# : can be used with a "-" to represent a
# : range
# () : expression grouping
# | : either or
#
#
# If the dialled number doesn't match the dial plan then the call
# is rejected.
sip digit timeout: 3 # set the inter-digit timeout in seconds
# Example dial plans
sip dial plan: "x+#|xx+*" # this is the default dial string, note
# that is must be quoted since it contains
# a '#' character
#sip dial plan: [01]xxx|[2-8]xxxx|91xxxxxxxxxx
# accept any 4 digit number beginning
# with a 0 or 1, any 5 digit number
# beginning with a number between 2 and 8
# (inclusive) or a 12 digit number
# beginning with 91
#sip dial plan terminator: 1 # enable sending of the "#" symbol to
# to the proxy in the dial string

# Programmable Key Settings
# ===========================
# Programmable keys can be set either server wide or unique to each phone.
# Setting programmable keys as line/call appearances should be done
# in the "<mac>.cfg" file, since these are unique to each phone.
# Notes:
#
# There are a maximum of 7 programmable keys that can be configured
# on the 6753i phone, and only 2 on the phone. These can be
# set up through either of the 2 configuration files, depending on
# whether this is to be server wide ("aastra.cfg"), or model specific (“<model>.cfg”), or phone
# specific ("<mac>.cfg"). Each prgkey needs to be numbered from
# 1 - 7, for example "prgkey2 type:
# speeddial". Programmable keys can be set up as speeddials or as
# additional call/line appearances or as feature keys and have a
# type, value and line associated with it as seen here in the
# default programmable settings.
