Configuration Server Protocol

You can download new versions of firmware and confguration files from the configuration server to the IP phone using any of the following types of protocols: TFTP, FTP, HTTP, and HTTPS. The TFTP setting is the default download protocol. You can configure the type of protocol that the IP phone uses by setting it in the configuration files, the IP phone UI, or the Aastra Web UI.

Note: For DHCP to automatically populate the IP address or domain name for the TFTP server, your DHCP server must support Option 66. For more information, see this chapter, the section, “DHCP” on page 4-4.
