IP Phone Release Notes 2.2

Features in Release 2.2

Polling Action URI

Another way to reach a phone behind a NAT/firewall is to have the phone make an XML call at periodic intervals. A new Action URI was added in Release 2.2 called action uri poll which commands the phone to perform an XML call at configurable intervals.

An Administrator can specify the URI to be called and specify the interval between polls using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI. Configuration of this feature is dynamic (no reboot required).
