Overview
Firmware Installation Information
Description
The firmware setup and installation for the IP phone can be done using any of the
following:
• Phone keypad menu (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 4-8 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.
