Operation of AvayaIP 9600/5600 Phones

Connection of IP 96xx/4600/5600 Phones

The recommended installation method for H.323 IP phones uses a DHCP server

DHCP will provide Gatekeeper, TFTP server address, etc.

4600 and 5600 Series H.323 IP phones use DHCP option 176

1600 and 9600 Series H.323 IP Phones use DHCP option 242

The network configuration of a 4600 series IP telephone can carried out using the device itself or using a DHCP server.

Gatekeeper, TFTP server address, etc. can also entered manually at the IP phone

Once powered, an IP phone will initially search for a script file "46xxupgrade.scr" on a TFTP server.

This script file contains data on the software version that is responsible for the IP phone.

Another required file is the 46xxsettings.txt file, which can contain information on the standard programming of the IP phone.

The PC running the Manager can act as TFTP server (note the directory path of the bin-files).

In the string value field, enter the following:

MCIPADD=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx,MCPORT=1719,TFTPSRVR=yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy,TFTPDIR=z, VLANTEST=0

where:

•MCIPADD= is the H.323 Gatekeeper (Callserver) address. Normally, this is the IP Office Unit's LAN1 address.

•MCPORT= is the RAS port address for initiating phone registration.

•TFTPSRVR= is the TFTP Server IP Address. Normally, this is the IP address of the PC running Manager.

•TFTPDIR= is the TFTP Server directory where the IP phone files are located. This entry is not required if those files are in the TFTP server's default directory.

•VLANTEST= is the number of minutes phones should attempt to register on a specific VLAN before defaulting back to VLAN 0. This field is optional. A setting of 0 disables the fallback to registering on VLAN 0.

Note: This option must be configured on customer provided DHCP server. When using IP Office as DHCP server, this option will be set automatically by IP Office

On-hook Dialing (1400/1600/9600 only)

IP Office Release 6.0 will support on-hook dialing, also referred to as “en-bloc-dialing” on the 1400, 1600 and 9600 series telephones. This will be supported in Essential Edition - PARTNER Version and IP Office mode. (PARTNER supports 1400 only)

If set up, when dialing a number without lifting the handset, the phone does not automatically go off-hook (in speakerphone mode) but just displays the dialed digits in the display.

A User may select the En-bloc dial preference from the Features Menu (Features > Call Settings > En-bloc Dial) which will then allow them to pre-compose digits before dialling. The call is initiated by going off hook or selecting a free appearance.
