Methods of Installation

The Þrmware set up and installation for the 480i can be done through the Options List available directly from the phone or through the Aastra 480i Web Client web interface. When the 480i is initialized for the Þrst time, DHCP is enabled by default. The DHCP server passes information to the 480i so that it can conÞgure itself for subsequent IP PBX addresses and normal runtime operations.

The following considerations must be made before connecting the 480i phone to the network:

•If you are planning on using Dynamic IP addresses, make sure a DHCP server is running on your network.

•If you are not planning on using Dynamic IP addresses, refer to the section "ConÞguring the 480i IP Phone" on how to set up an IP address manually.

•Make sure a TFTP server is set up on your network and can accept connections anonymously.

•If you are using SRV queries for your DNS Server on BroadSoft, change both the SIP Proxy Port and SIP Registrar Port settings to zero.

To Þnd out how to hook up the cabling to your 480i phone, please refer to the Aastra 480i Installation Guide.

2.Copy the Þrmware Þle

"Þrmware.st" to the root directory of the TFTP server. This Þrmware Þle is downloaded only when it is different than the one the phone is currently using.

3.Copy the Aastra conÞguration Þle "aastra.cfg" and "<mac>.cfg" Þle to the root directory of the TFTP server.
