Downloading software packages

You can use the upgrade file and the application files included in the Software Distribution Package

that Avaya provides to upgrade the phones. Do not modify the upgrade files. You must save all the

essential files on your file server. When you download a new release onto a file server that has an

existing release:

1. Stop the file server.

2. Administer the required port setting in HTTPPORT or TLSPORT for HTTP or TLS,

respectively if you want to specify a port the phones must use to communicate with the file

server.

3. Back up all the current file server directories as applicable.

4. Copy the 46xxsettings.txt file to a backup location.

5. Remove all the files in the download directory. This ensures that you do not have an

inappropriate binary or configuration file on the server. The only system values that can be

used in the Conditional statement are: GROUP, MACADDR, MODEL, MODEL4, and

SIG_IN_USE.

Download the self-extracting executable file or the corresponding zip file.

6. Extract all the files.

7. Copy the 46xxsettings.txt file back into the download directory.

8. Check the Readme file for release-specific information.

9. Modify the 46xxsettings.txt file as required.

10. Reset your phones.

You can download the default upgrade file from http://www.avaya.com/support. With this file, the

phone uses default settings for customer-definable options.

You might want to open the default file and administer the options to add useful functionality to your

Avaya IP phones. Ensure that the file resides in the same directory as the upgrade file and is named

as 46xxsetting.txt. The Avaya IP phones can operate without this file.
