A user or administrator can lock a phone to prevent it from being used or configured. Once the phone is locked, the user or administrator can enter their password to unlock the phone.

You can use any of the following methods to lock/unlock a phone:

•Using the IP Phone UI via the “Phone Lock” option in the Options Menu.

•Using the Aastra Web UI via the path Operation->Phone Lock.

•Using the configuration files to configure a key as “phonelock”, and then pressing the key to lock/unlock the phone.

•Using the Aastra Web UI to configure a key as “Phone Lock”, and then pressing the key to lock/unlock the phone.

Note: All of the methods above configure locking/unlocking of the phone dynamically. Once configured, the feature takes affect immediately. To unlock the phone, a user or administrator must enter their password.
