Configuration Methods

Using HTTPS via the Aastra Web UI

HTTPS is enabled by default on the IP phones. When you open a browser window and enter an IP address or host name for a phone using HTTP, a server redirection occurs which automatically converts an HTTP connection to an HTTPS connection. After the redirection, a “Security Alert” certificate window displays alerting the user that information exchanged with the phone cannot be viewed or changed by others. Accepting the certificate then forwards you to the phone’s Web UI.

Notes:

1. The private key and certificate generate outside the phone and embed in the phone firmware for use by the HTTPS server during the SSL handshake.

2.Using the configuration files, the IP phone UI, or the Aastra Web UI, you can configure the following regarding HTTPS:

-Specify HTTPS security client method to use (TLS 1.0 or SSL 3.0)

-Enable or disable HTTP to HTTPS server redirect function

-HTTPS server blocking of XML HTTP POSTS to the phone
