5i Series IP Phone Release Notes  
Features in Release 2.2  
Usability Features  
Dial Plan Support for Secondary Dial Tone  
The IP phones now support a feature that allows the user to dial a predefined  
dial string, obtain a dial tone, and continue dialing. A User or Administrator can  
configure this using the existing Dial Plan feature on the phone.  
You can enter a new character string in the dial plan that allows you to  
configure the secondary dial tone. The character string is of the form ".;." ,  
where the period indicates an arbitrary number of digits and the semicolon  
indicates that the phone is to present a dial tone after the previous dialed digit.  
For example, in the string:  
"9;xxxxx"  
the user dials “9” to get the outside line, listens for the dial tone, and continues  
to dial the applicable number. The “;” tells the phone to present a second dial  
tone after the previously dialed digit. “The “xxxxx” in the example tells the  
phone that a phone number is dialed after the secondary dial tone is audible.  
You can enter the Secondary Dial Tone string in the Dial Plan using the  
configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.  
You use the following parameter in the configuration files to configure a  
secondary dial tone:  
sip dial plan  
Example: sip dial plan: “9;xxxxxxx”  
You use the following parameter in the Aastra Web UI to configure a secondary  
dial tone:

IP Phone Release Notes 2.2  
Features in Release 2.2  
Account-Based Do Not Disturb (DND) and Call Forward (CFWD)  
In previous releases of the IP Phone, you could configure a DND key to set “do  
not disturb” on all the lines on the phone. Also in previous releases, you could  
configure CFWD on all lines (global settings) or on specific lines (local settings)  
on the phone.  
In Release 2.2, the IP phones have a new DND and CFWD feature that allows an  
Administrator and User to configure “do not disturb” and “call forwarding” by  
account. You can set specific modes for the way you want the phone to handle  
DND and CFWD. The three modes you can set on the phone for these features  
are:  
Account  
Phone  
Custom.  
The following paragraphs describe account-based DND and CFWD:  
DND Account-Based Configuration  
Previous to release 2.2, DND was configurable on the phone-side only on a global  
basis by configuring a DND key. Now an Administrator or User can configure  
DND on the phone-side by setting a mode for the phone to use (account, phone,  
or custom). Once the mode is set, you can use the IP Phone UI to use the DND  
feature.  
Note: If there is only one account configured on the phone, then the  
mode setting is ignored and the phone behaves as if the mode was set  
to “Phone”.

IP Phone Release Notes 2.2  
Features in Release 2.2  
CFWD Account-Based Configuration  
Call Forward (CFWD) on the IP phone allows incoming calls to be forwarded to  
another destination.  
Previous to Release 2.2, you could configure CFWD on all lines (global settings)  
or on specific lines (local settings) on the phone, using the IP Phone UI and the  
Aastra Web UI. You could configure call forwarding on the IP Phone UI on a  
global basis only using the Options Menu.  
An Administrator or User can now configure CFWD on the phone-side by setting  
a mode for the phone to use (Account, Phone, or Custom). Once the mode is set,  
you can use the IP Phone UI to use the CFWD feature at Options->Call Forward  
or by pressing a configured Call Forward softkey/programmable key/extension  
module key.  
The following describes the behavior for each CFWD mode.  
Account mode - The account mode allows you to configure CFWD on a per  
account basis. Pressing a configured CFWD key applies to the account in  
focus.  
Phone mode - The Phone mode allows you to set the same CFWD  
configuration for all accounts (All, Busy, and/or No Answer). When you  
configure the initial account, the phone applies the configuration to all other  
accounts. (In the Aastra Web UI, only the account you configured is enabled.  
All other accounts are grayed out but set to the same configuration.) Using the  
Aastra Web UI, if you make changes to that initial account, the changes apply  
to all accounts on the phone.  
Custom mode - The Custom mode allows you to configure CFWD for a  
specific account or all accounts. You can configure a specific mode (All,  
Busy, and/or No Answer) for each account independently or all accounts. On  
the 51 and 53i phones, you can set all accounts to ALL On or ALL Off. On  
the 55i, 57i, and 57i CT, you can set all accounts to All On, All Off, or copy  
the configuration for the account in focus to all other accounts using a  
CopytoAll softkey.  
Note: If there is only one account configured on the phone, then the  
mode setting is ignored and the phone behaves as if the mode was set  
to “Phone”.

In previous releases, you could configure one phone number and then select the

The Custom mode allows you to configure CFWD for a specific  
account or all accounts. You can configure a specific mode (All,  
Busy, and/or No Answer) for each account independently or all  
accounts. On the 51 and 53i phones, you can set all accounts to  
ALL On or ALL Off. On the 55i, 57i, and 57i CT, you can set all  
accounts to All On, All Off, or copy the configuration for the  
account in focus to all other accounts using a CopytoAll softkey.  
Notes:  
1. If there is no CFWD key configured on the phone or it is removed,  
you can still set the CFWD modes via the IP Phone UI at the path  
Options->Call Forward.  
2. If there is only one account configured on the phone, then the  
mode setting is ignored and the phone behaves as if the mode was set  
to “Phone”.  
3. When configuring a CFWD mode (All, Busy, No Answer) for an  
account, you must configure a CFWD number for that mode in order for  
the mode to be enabled.

For each account, enable CFWD state by placing a check mark in one or more of the following  
State” fields:  
All  
Busy  
No Answer  
The “All” option forwards all incoming calls for this account to the specified phone number regardless  
of the state of the phone. The phone can be in the Busy or No Answer states, or can be in the idle  
state. The phone still forwards all calls to the specified number.  
The “Busy” option call forwards incoming calls only if the account is in the busy state. The calls are  
forwarded to the specified phone number.  
The “No Answer” option call forwards incoming calls only if the account rings but is not answered in  
the defined number of rings. The call gets forwarded to the specified number.  
Note: You can use the “Busy” and “No Answer” states together using different forwarding phone  
numbers. If these states are enabled for an account (the “All” state is disabled), and the phone is in  
the busy state when a call comes in, the phone can forward the call to the specified phone number  
(for example, voicemail). If there is no answer on the phone after the specified number of rings, the  
phone can forward the call to a different specified number, such as a cell phone number.

For each account, in the “Number” field, enter the phone number for which you want the incoming  
calls to forward to if the phone is in the specified state.  
If using the “Account” mode or “Custom” mode, you can enter different phone numbers for each  
account.  
Notes:  
1. If you selected “Account” mode in step 4, you can enable/disable each account or all accounts  
as applicable. You can enter different phone number for each enabled state.  
If you selected “Custom” mode, you can enable/disable each account or all accounts as applicable.  
You can enter different phone numbers for each enabled state.  
If you selected “Phone” mode, all accounts are set to the same CFWD configuration (All, Busy, and/  
or No Answer) as Account 1 on the phone. (In the Aastra Web UI, only Account 1 is enabled. All  
other accounts are grayed out but use the same configuration as Account 1.)  
Using the Aastra Web UI, if you make changes to Account 1, the changes apply to all accounts on  
the phone. Using the IP Phone UI, if you make changes to any other account other then Account 1,  
the changes also apply to all accounts on the phone. When enabling a CFWD state, you must specify  
a phone number for the phone to CFWD to. The number you specify applies to all accounts of the  
same mode.  
2. Number and name of accounts that display to this screen are dependant on the number and  
name of accounts configured on the phone. In the screen in step 6, Screenname1 is configured on  
Line 1, Screenname2 is configured on Line 2, and Screenname3 is configured on Line 3. The name  
for the account is dependant on the name specified for the “Screen Name” parameter at the path  
Advanced Settings->LineN. If you do not specify a value for the “Screen Name” parameter, the  
account name is based on the “Phone Number” parameter at the path Advanced Settings->LineN.  
If neither the “Screen Name” nor the “Phone Number” parameters are specified, the account name  
shows “1”, “2”, “3”, etc. only.

For the No Answer state, in the “No. Rings” field, enter the number of times that the account rings  
before forwarding the call to the specified number. Valid values are 1 through 20. Default is 1.  
Note: When using the “Account” mode or “Custom” mode, you can enter a different number of rings  
for each account. If you use the Aastra Web UI to change the Call Forward Key Mode to “Phone”, all  
accounts synchronize to Account 1.

Features in Release 2.2  
Multicast Group Paging  
An Administrator or User can configure a specific softkey on the phone that  
allows you to send/receive a Real Time Transport Protocol (RTP) stream to/from  
pre-configured multicast address(es) without involving SIP signaling. This is  
called Group Paging on the IP phones. You can specify up to 5 listening multicast  
addresses.  
An Administrator can use the following parameters in the configuration files to set  
Group Paging RTP Settings:  
paging group listening  
softkeyN type, topsoftkeyN type, prgkeyN type, or expmodX keyN type  
sofkeyN label, topsoftkeyN label, or expmodX keyN label  
softkeyN value, topsoftkeyN value, prgkeyN value, or expmodX keyN  
value  
An Administrator or User can use the following parameters in the Aastra Web UI  
to set Group Paging RTP Settings:  
Paging Listen Addresses (Basic Settings->Preferences->Group Paging RTP  
Settings)  
<Paging> Softkey (Operation->Softkeys and XML,  
Operation->Programmable Keys, Operation->Expansion Keys)  
How it works  
After pressing a configured “Paging” softkey on the phone, the Phone sends RTP  
to a preconfigured multicast address. Any phone in the local network then listens  
for RTP on the preconfigured multicast address. For both sending and receiving of  
the multicast RTP there is no sip signaling involved. The Phone displays the  
“Paging” message to the phone’s LCD.  
Note: Multicast RTP is one way only - from sender to the receiver (i.e.  
from sender to the multicast address (receiver)).  
The phone uses the G711 uLaw CODEC for multicast RTP.

5i Series IP Phone Release Notes  
Features in Release 2.2  
The recipient can drop the incoming page if required. The recipient can also set  
Do Not Disturb (DND) to ignore any incoming pages.  
Note: For outgoing RTP multicasts, all other existing calls on the phone  
are put on hold.  
For incoming RTP multicasts, the ringing display is dependant on the “Allow  
Barge-In” parameter. If this parameter is disabled, and there is no other call on  
the phone, then the paging is automatically played via the preferred audio  
device (see the model-specific IP Phone User Guide for setting Audio  
Mode on the phone).  
If there is an existing call on the phone, the call initially displays in the ringing  
state. The user has the option to accept/ignore the call. If the “Allow Barge-In”  
parameter is enabled, the RTP multicast call barges in, and any existing calls are  
put on hold.  
If an RTP multicast session already exists on the phone, and the phone receives  
another incoming RTP multicast session, the priority is given to the first multicast  
session and the second multicast session is ignored. The behavior for the  
incoming calls in this case is also based on the setting for the “Allow Barge-in”  
parameter. The incoming call is handled as if there were an existing call already  
on the phone.

IP Phone Release Notes 2.2  
Features in Release 2.2  
Simplified Transfer Using BLF and Speeddial Keys  
In Release 2.2, a transfer (Xfer) enhancement has been added to the original  
functionality of the BLF and Speeddial keys - BLF/Xfer and Speeddial/Xfer.  
Prior to this release, the IP Phones supported BLF, Xfer, and Speeddial softkeys  
and programmable keys. The BLF key allows one or more extensions to be  
monitored, and once there is any state change with those extensions, the key  
shows the status of the monitored lines. The Xfer key allows a call to be  
transferred to other recipients blindly or consultatively. The Speeddial key allows  
a number to be dialed quickly by pressing one key configured for speeddialing.  
After answering a call, the recipient can transfer the call to an extension by:  
1. Pressing Xfer key  
2. Entering the number of the extension or pressing speeddial or BLF key.  
3. Pressing Xfer key again  
Release 2.2 introduces a simpler way of transferring calls using the keys called  
BLF/Xfer and Speeddial/Xfer. The BLF/Xfer key combines the BLF and Xfer  
key's functionality together allowing the user to transfer calls or use BLF with one  
key. Similarly, the Speeddial/Xfer key combines the Speeddial key and Xfer  
key's functionality together allowing the user to press one key to speeddial and  
transfer calls.  
Note: It is recommended that you enable the “switch focus to  
ringing” parameter when using the BLF and Speeddial transfer key  
feature. For more information about this parameter, see “Ability to

BLF/Xfer Key Requirements and Functionality  
BLF/Xfer and BLF  
A BLF/Xfer key can be configured for subscribing to an extension and  
monitor the status of the extension, similar to the the BLF key functionality.  
Changes of the state of the monitored extension are indicated by a LED / Icon.  
BLF/Xfer and Blind Transfer Calls  
When the focused line is in the “Connected” state, pressing the BLF/Xfer key  
transfers the call to the extension unconditionally, disregarding the status of  
the monitored extension.  
If transferring a call to an extension fails, a message “Transfer Failed”  
displays on the phone, and you can reconnect the call (get the call back) by  
pressing the line key again.  
BLF/Xfer and Call forward  
When the focused line is in the “Ringing” state, pressing the BLF/Xfer key  
forwards the call to the extension unconditionally, disregarding the status of  
the monitored extension.  
BLF/Xfer and Speeddial  
When the focused line and the monitored extension are idle, pressing the  
BLF/Xfer key causes the phone to go offhook and dial the number of the  
extension.

Features in Release 2.2  
Ability to Disable Switching Focus to a Ringing Line When on a Call  
In Release 2.2, it is now possible to control the behavior of the phone when it  
receives an incoming call when it is already in a connected call. By default, and in  
the previous release behavior, the phone switches focus to the ringing line to  
enable the user to see who is calling them.  
In Release 2.2, you can now turn off this functionality so that the phone now stays  
focused on the connected call. You can do this using the “switch focus to ringing  
line” parameter in the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.  
Note: If you configure the BLF/Xfer key(s) and/or Speeddial/Xfer  
key(s) on the phone, you can enable or disable the switching of the  
user interface focus to ringing line while the phone is in the connected  
state.

Security Features  
802.1x Support  
The IP phones now support the IEEE 802.1x protocol. The 802.1x protocol is a  
standard for passing Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) over a wired or  
wireless Local Area Network (LAN).  
The 802.1x protocol on the IP phone facilitates media-level access control, and  
offers the capability to permit or deny network connectivity, control LAN access,  
and apply traffic policy, based on user or endpoint identity. This feature supports  
both the EAP-MD5 and EAP-TLS protocols.  
If 802.1x on the phone is enabled, the following screen displays during startup of  
the phone.

802.1x Authenticating....  
If the 802.1x failed to authenticate with the server, the phone continues it's normal  
startup process using DHCP. However, the network port on the phone may or may  
not be disabled, depending on the switch configuration.

Certificates and Private Key Information  
If the certificates and private key are NOT stored in the phone:  
— the phone connects to an open unauthenticated VLAN and the certificates  
are downloaded.  
or  
— the phone connects using EAP-MD5 to a restricted VLAN and the  
certificates are downloaded.  
If the certificates and private key ARE stored in the phone, the phone uses  
them during the authentication process.  
If the phone uses EAP-TLS for successful authentication, after the phone  
reboots, it downloads the latest certificates and private key files to the phone.  
The private key uses AES-128 to encrypt the private key file.  
Switch Supplicant Mode - The switch supports the following 2 modes:  
Single supplicant - This mode enables the port once any machine  
connected to this port is authenticated. For security reasons, the IP phone  
has the option to disable the pass-through port.  
Multiple supplicants - Using this mode, the switch can support multiple  
clients connected to same port. The switch distinguishes between the  
clients based on their MAC address.  
Factory default and recovery mode deletes all certificates and private keys,  
and sets the EAP type to disabled.  
You can configure the 802.1x feature on the IP phone using the configuration  
files, the IP Phone UI, or the Aastra Web UI.  
Note: If configuring 802.1x using the IP Phone UI, the certificates  
and private keys must already be configured and stored on the phone.  
Use the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI to load certificates  
and private keys.

IP Phone Release Notes 2.2  
Features in Release 2.2  
Improved Configuration File Encryption  
The IP phones have an encryption feature that allows Service Providers the  
capability of storing encrypted files on their server to protect against unauthorized  
access and tampering of sensitive information (i.e., user accounts, login  
passwords, registration information). Service Providers also have the capability of  
locking a phone to use a specific server-provided configuration only.  
Only an System Administrator can encrypt the configurations files for an IP  
Phone. System Administrators use a password distribution scheme to manually  
pre-configure or automatically configure the phones to use the encrypted  
configuration with a unique key. From a Microsoft Windows command line, the  
System Administrator uses an Aastra-supplied encryption tool called  
"anacrypt.exe" to encrypt the <MAC>.tuz file.  
The security feature described above prevents unauthorized parties from reading  
or writing the contents of the <MAC>.tuz file.  
In Release 2.2, the IP phones include an improved encryption mechanism that:  
Prevents users from using the <MAC>.tuz file that does not match the user’s  
phone MAC address.  
Renders the <MAC>.tuz file invalid if the user renames the file.  
Works with IP phone releases prior to Release 2.2.  
Provides compatibility between the previous encryption routine and the new  
decryption routine.

XML Features  
SIP NOTIFY Triggers an XML Event  
In order for an XML push to bypass the NAT/firewall, in Release 2.2 the phone  
now supports a proprietary SIP NOTIFY event (aastra-xml) with or without XML  
content.  
If XML content is provided in the SIP NOTIFY, it is processed directly by the  
phone as it is done for an XML PUSH.  
If the content is empty in the SIP NOTIFY, the phone automatically triggers a new  
pre-configured action uri (action uri xml sip notify).  
Example of a SIP NOTIFY with XML Content  
NOTIFY sip:200@10.30.100.103:5060 SIP/2.0

Content-Length: 115  
<AastraIPPhoneExecute><ExecuteItem URI="http://10.30.100.39/XMLtests/  
SampleTextScreen.xml"/></AastraIPPhoneExecute>  
When the phone receives the SIP NOTIFY, the XML content is processed as any  
XML object. In the above example, the phone calls http://10.30.100.39/XMLtests/  
SampleTextScreen.xml after reception of the SIP NOTIFY.  
Note: The phone supports all the current XML objects with all  
the existing limitations. For example if an  
AastraIPPhoneExecute is used, the embedded uri(s) can not be  
HTTPS based.

configured, the phone does not do anything.  
On the phone side, a System Administrator can enable or disable this SIP  
NOTIFY feature using the configuration files or the phone Web UI.  
Also to ensure that the SIP NOTIFY is coming from a trusted source, it is  
recommended that you enable the Whitelist feature (Whitelist Proxy parameter)  
on the IP phone. If enabled, and the phone receives a SIP NOTIFY from a server  
that is NOT on the whitelist, the phone rejects the message.

RTP and Multicast RTP via XML  
The IP Phones have new XML commands an Administrator can use with the  
AastraIPPhoneExecute” object. These commands allow the phone to send/  
recieve an RTP stream to/from given multicast/unicast addresses (without  
involving SIP signaling). The new XML commands to use with the  
AastraIPPhoneExecute object in an XML application are:  
RTPRx (Receive (Rx) a Unicast RTP stream or stop receiving a Unicast/  
Multicast RTP streams)  
RTPTx (Transmit (Tx) a Unicast RTP stream or stop transmitting a Unicast/  
Multicast RTP streams)  
RTPMRx (Receive (Rx) a Multicast RTP stream)  
RTPMTx (Transmit (Tx) a Multicast RTP stream)  
The phones support the following RTP stream format:  
G.711 mu-law CODEC  
20 ms packet size  
Note: If one of the previous commands is sent to the phone which is  
already in a call, the phone places the current call on hold and the RTP  
streaming commands are performed using a new audio path.

RTPRx  
The RTPRx URI instructs the phone to receive a Unicast RTP stream or stop  
receiving Unicast or Multicast RTP streams. The RTPRx formats to use with the  
AastraIPPhoneExecute object in the URI are:  
RTPRx:i:p:v  
RTPRx:Stop  
Where  
i
Specifies the IP Address from which the stream is coming.  
p
Specifies the UDP port on which to receive the RTP stream.  
Ensure that this is a number greater than 3100.  
v
Indicates the optional volume setting that controls the volume of the stream  
(optional) playout. The supplied value is an offset to the current volume setting. After the  
initial volume level gets set and the stream starts, you can manually change  
the volume level as required using this “v” option. If you do not specify the  
optional volume parameter, the phone uses the current volume setting on the  
phone as the default.  
Stop  
Specifies to stop any active RTP stream from being received on channel one.  
Example: This example receives a unicast RTP stream from 10.30.100.20 at UDP port  
21000 with the voice settings at 3 levels more than the current offset.  
<AastraIPPhoneExecute>  
<ExecuteItem URI = ”RTPRx:10.30.100.20:21000:3”>  
<AastraIPPhoneExecute>  
Example:  
This example receives a unicast RTP stream from 10.30.100.20 at UDP port 21000 with  
the voice settings as used in the previous RTP stream.  
<AastraIPPhoneExecute>  
<ExecuteItem URI = ”RTPRx:10.30.100.20:21000”>  
<AastraIPPhoneExecute>

Note: Once the RTPRx command in the URI is sent to the phone, it stops  
the phone from listening to any previous RTPRx or RTPMRx commands.  
The phone starts listening based on the most recent RTPRx command  
received. This behavior also applies to the RTPRx:Stop and  
RTPMRx:Stop commands as well but does not enable any further  
listening.  
RTPTx  
The RTPTx URI instructs the phone to transmit a Unicast RTP stream or to stop  
transmitting Unicast or Multicast RTP streams. The RTPTx formats to use with  
the AastraIPPhoneExecute object in the URI are:  
RTPTx:i:p  
RTPTx:Stop  
Where  
i
Specifies the IP Address to which an RTP stream is transmit ed.  
p
Specifies the UDP port on which to transmit the RTP stream.  
Ensure that this is a number greater than 3100.  
Stop  
Specifies to stop any active RTP stream from being transmitted on channel  
one.  
Example: This example sends a unicast RTP stream to 10.30.100.20 on UDP port  
21000.  
<AastraIPPhoneExecute>  
<ExecuteItem URI = ”RTPTx:10.30.100.20:21000”>

RTPMRx  
The RTPMRx URI instructs the phone to receive a Multicast RTP stream. The  
RTPMRx format to use with the AastraIPPhoneExecute object in the URI is:  
RTPMRx:i:p:v  
Where  
i
Specifies the multicast IP Address from which to receive an RTP stream.  
p
Specifies the UDP port on which to receive the RTP stream.  
Ensure that this is a number greater than 3100.  
v
Indicates the optional volume setting that controls the volume of the stream  
(optional) playout. The supplied value is an offset to the current volume setting. After the  
initial volume level gets set and the stream starts, you can manually change  
the volume level as required using this “v” option. If you do not specify the  
optional volume parameter, the phone uses the current volume setting on the  
phone as the default.  
Example: This example receives a multicast RTP stream from 239.0.1.20 on UDP port  
21000 with the voice settings at -3 levels less than the current offset.  
<AastraIPPhoneExecute>  
<ExecuteItem URI = ”RTPMRx:239.0.1.20:21000:-3”>  
<AastraIPPhoneExecute>  
Example:  
This example receives a multicast RTP stream from 239.0.1.20 at UDP port 21000 with  
the voice settings as used in the previous RTP stream.

Text Wrap for XML TextMenu Items  
The AastraIPPhoneTextMenu object now supports text wrapping on two lines for  
its items. This is done using a new attribute called "wrapList". This attribute  
allows you to specify the text wrapping to an additional line rather than truncating  
and dropping the text.  
Note: If the menu item begins with more than one large word (with no  
spaces or hyphens), the first full word displays on the first line truncated  
and the next full word displays on the next line.  
The example below illustrates the IP Phone text wrapping prior to 2.2, and the  
new text wrapping in Release 2.2.

Non-Blocking HTTP Connections  
In Release 2.2, the IP Phones support a non-blocking HTTP connection feature.  
This feature allows the user to continue using the phone when there is a  
delay during an HTTP connection while the phone is waiting for the HTTP  
server to respond. This feature also allows a user to abort the connection and  
perform other operations on the phone (which will abort the HTTP connection  
automatically). A user can also abort the HTTP loading by pressing the  
GOODBYE key while the phone is displaying “Loading Page.......”.  
Note: This feature impacts only the HTTP calls triggered by a phone key  
(softkey or programmable key); the HTTP calls performed by action  
URIs are still blocking 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).

Support for HTTP and HTTPS Configuration Servers on  
Non-Standard Ports  
Prior to Release 2.2, the IP Phones used the default port numbers for loading  
configuration over HTTP (Port 80), HTTPS (Port 443) and DHCP option 66. Now  
the IP Phones allow an Administrator to configure the HTTP/HTTPS port number  
when required for configuration servers (  
Two new parameters for configuring the HTTP and HTTPS port numbers are as  
follows:  
http port

IP Phone Release Notes 2.2  
Features in Release 2.2  
NAT Traversal Features  
Configurable SIP and TLS Source Ports  
A System Administrator can now configure the SIP and TLS source ports on the  
IP Phone. Previously, the IP phone used default values (5060 for UDP/TCP and  
5061 for TLS). The two new parameters for configuring the SIP and TLS source  
ports are:  
sip local port  
sip local tls port  
You can configure the SIP and TLS source ports using the configuration files or  
the Aastra Web UI. After configuring these parameters, you must reboot the  
phone.  
If NAT is disabled, the port number also shows in the VIA and Contact SIP  
headers.  
If you enable NAT, the phone uses the NAT port number (and NAT IP address) in  
the Via and Contact SIP headers of SIP messages, but still use the configured  
source port.  
Note: By default, the IP phones use symmetric UDP signaling for  
outgoing UDP SIP messages. When symmetric UDP is enabled, the IP  
phone generates and listens for UDP messages using port 5060.If  
symmetric UDP signaling is disabled, the phone sends from random  
ports but it listens on the configured SIP local port.

RPORT Support  
The Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) operates over UDP and TCP. When used  
with UDP, responses to requests are returned to the source address from which the  
request came, and returned to the port written into the topmost “Via” header of the  
request. However, this behavior is not desirable when the client is behind a  
Network Address Translation (NAT) or firewall.  
A new parameter created for the “Via” header called “Rport” in RFC 3581,  
allows a client to request that the server send the response back to the source IP  
address and the port from which the request came.  
When you enable “Rport, the phone always uses symmetric signaling (listens on  
the port used for sending requests).  
An Administrator can configure “Rport” using the configuration files or the  
Aastra Web UI.

softkey on the IP Phone UI screen. Valid values are 0 (disabled) or 1  
(enabled). Default is 0 (disabled).  
If the “http digest force login” parameter is set to 1 (enabled), after the phone  
boots, the LOG IN softkey displays on the phone’s LCD. If the user presses this  
softkey, a username/password screen displays, allowing the user to enter the  
configured username and password that is sent to the HTTP/HTTPS server for  
digest authentication by the server. By default, username is “aastra” and  
password is “aastra”. You can enter the username and password in two ways:  
Using the configuration files, you can change the default values for the  
following parameters:  
http digest username - specifies the username to use for HTTP/HTTPS  
digest authentication.  
http digest password - specifies the password to use for HTTP/HTTPS  
digest authentication.  
By enabling the “http digest force login” parameter (setting to 1) - the phone  
displays the LOG IN key so the user can enter the default username/password  
via the IP Phone UI.

IP Phone Release Notes 2.2  
Features in Release 2.2  
Server-Side Do Not Disturb (DND), Call Forward (CFWD) ,  
and Automatic Call Distribution (ACD) Support  
The IP phones now support server-side DND, CFWD, and ACD feature  
events.This feature is called “as-feature-event” and works with the DND, CFWD,  
and ACD keys.  
Notes:  
1. The 51i supports server-side DND and CFWD only.  
2. The DND, CFWD, and ACD server-side feature is not applicable to  
the CT handset.  
This feature is configurable using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.  
How it Works on the Phone UI  
When you enable the “as-feature-event” on the phone, AND you activate a DND,  
CFWD, and/or ACD key, pressing the key performs as follows:  
If the key is configured for an account on the phone, the server applies DND,  
CFWD or ACD to that account. (for information about CFWD and DND  
account configuration, see the section, “Account-Based Do Not Disturb  
If the key is “custom” configured, a screen displays on the phone allowing the  
user to choose the account to apply DND or CFWD. (for information about  
CFWD and DND custom configuration, see the section, “Account-Based Do  
A solid “Message Waiting Indicator” (MWI) indicates if one line/account has  
DND or CFWD enabled, and the LED next to the DND/CFWD key is ON. A  
status displays on the LCD that indicates the status of the line in focus (for  
example, the status of CFWD could be “Call Forward Busy” (CFWDB) or  
“Call Forward No Answer” (CFWDNA).  
Note: If the ACD key is configured on the phone, and the  
“as-feature-event” is not enabled, the phones uses the ACD icons and  
LED behavior from a Sylantro server instead.

Release 2.2. The following table provides the issue number and a brief description  
of each fix.  
Note: Unless specifically indicated, these resolved issues apply to all  
phone models.  
Issue Number  
Description of Fix  
User Interface  
DEF07409  
DEF07815  
DEF07876  
Phones no longer display "Unknown Name" when making outbound calls.  
You can no longer edit a locked speed dial key from the IP Phone UI.  
Speeddial page in the Aastra Web UI now returns a confirmation page after clicking  
the “SAVE SETTINGS” button.  
DEF07901  
DEF08025  
DEF08224  
DEF08595  
When adding a directory entry from the IP Phone UI, the phone now prompts the  
user to enter a phone number if they try to exit this field before entering a number..

format is set to 1 and date format is set to 3.  
You can now set the date via the IP Phone UI when using a non-Aastra supported  
language pack.

Note: The SRTP implementation in the previous release is not fully compatible with  
the new SRTP in release 2.2. There is a change in the upgraded libsrtp library on  
the phone which causes interoperability problems for certain codecs between old  
releases and the new 2.2. release. It is highly recommended that if you are using  
SRTP, all phones are upgraded to release 2.2.
