Firmware upgrade and downgrade

Starting from Release 1.0.1, you can both upgrade and downgrade the firmware of Avaya
Conference Phone B199 using the Device Management. The phone application installs the
firmware whenever the firmware version found in the firmware file downloaded from the
provisioning server differs from the version of the currently running firmware.
Note:
The downgrade causes a factory reset and sets all user settings, configurations, and data to
factory default.

Uploading a firmware file

About this task
Upgrade or downgrade your Avaya Conference Phone B199 using a firmware file stored on the
local hard disk. When the phone starts to install the firmware file you uploaded, it identifies the
firmware version and follows the upgrade or downgrade scenario based on the firmware version.
