Setting The Home Page - Avaya IP Office 3.0 Installation Manual

Setting the Home Page

WAP capable Avaya IP phones display a key option labeled Web when setup with a home page (press
PHONE/EXIT if in any other menu). Press the adjacent display key will access the home page. The
home page is set by editing the 46XXsetting.scr file found in the IP Office Manager applications program
folder.
• Important
This must be the same Manager PC as used for Avaya IP phone installation. This will be
the PC set as the TFTP Server IP address in the IP Office configuration, ie. the address
from which the Avaya IP phones request files when restarted.
2. Open the Manager application folder (C:\Program Files\Avaya\IP Office\Manager).
3. Locate the file 46XXsettings.scr.
4. The file cannot be edited as is since the .scr extension is associated by Windows with screen
savers. Rename the 46XXsettings.scr file to 46XXsettings.txt.
5. Double-click on 46XXsettings.txt. The file will open in Notepad.
6. The section relating to 4620 WML browsing is towards the end of the file. It will look similar to the
following:
################ SETTINGS FOR AVAYA 4620 IP PHONE ###################
## 4620 Web Launch page in WML - Default: Avaya hosted
SET WMLHOME http://192.168.42.200/4620/index.wml
## The Proxy server used for your LAN - IP address or human readable name (check
your browser settings).
# SET WMLPROXY nj.proxy.avaya.com
## The http proxy server port (check your browser settings).
SET WMLPORT 8000
## Exceptions: You must use an IP address not a DNS name
# Example: SET WMLEXCEPT 111.222.333.444
## Text coding for the web pages defaulted to ASCII.
SET WMLCODING ASCII
##################### END OF AVAYA 4620 IP PHONE ####################
6. Edit SET WMLHOME to be the address of the sample index.wml file on the web server. In this
example http://192.168.42.200/4620/index.wml.
• If DNS is being used to access the web server by IP name, the SET DOMAIN and SET
DNSSRVR lines at the start of the 46XXsettings.scr file should be edited to match the
LAN settings. The preceding #'s should be removed from the lines to make them active.
7. Close and save the file.
8. Rename the file back to 46XXsettings.scr.
9. The settings will not take effect until after the phones have restarted whilst Manager is running.
10. Start Manager.
11. Select View | TFTP log. This will allow you to see the phones request and download the
46XXsettings.scr file.
12. Either:
• Select File | Advanced | Reboot. Select the system to reboot and enter the system
password.
• or manually unplug and then reattach the LAN cable from the phone.
13. Once the phone has restarted it should be displaying Web as one of the screen option.
14. Press the Web display key.
