If you disable DHCP on the phone, the phone uses the TFTP protocol as the default server protocol. If you want to spec- ify a different protocol to use, see “Configuration Server Protocol” on page 4-87.

You can configure the network settings using the configuration files, the IP phone UI, or the Aastra Web UI.
