Server Administration

Customizing the 4630/4630SW IP Telephone

The 4630/4630SW IP Telephone has some unique and powerful capabilities that take advantage of its large display and access to LAN facilities. If your LAN has an LDAP-compliant directory, or if you have a corporate Web site suitable for the 4630’s/4630SW’s 1/4-VGA display, the telephone needs key information about the servers providing those facilities. Specifically, to administer the 4630/4630SW Telephone for the LDAP Directory application or the Web Access application, you must provide the information Table 11 calls for. You must provide this information in a customized script file, in accordance with 4600 Series IP Telephone Scripts and Application Files on page 77.

! CAUTION:

For the 4630/4630SW to work properly, you must have a 46xxsettings.scr or 46xxsettings.txt file in the same directory as the 4630/4630SW application file. If you do not edit the 46xxsettings file, the 4630/4630SW uses default settings only. The 46xxsettings file is no longer part of the *.zip file on the Avaya software download Web site, but is available as a stand-alone download. If you already have such a file because you downloaded it for a previous 4630 release, installing the stand-alone file overwrites the original file.

Note:

The 4620 and the 4630/4630SW IP Telephones use the same 46xxsettings file.

In Table 11, parameters shown with a Mandatory status must be accurate and non-null for the application to work. The Avaya Help Web site, however, is always available. Parameters with an Optional status may be changed to suit your environment. If you do not change the parameters, their defaults are used.
