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:

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”.
