After installing and familiarizing yourself with your 5215 or 5220 IP Phone, you are ready to
access and use your phone's SIP and "regular" features. To do so, you may use either of the
following two interfaces:
• Superkey Menu Interface
• Web Configuration Tool.
This section explains how to access both interfaces so you can then customize your phone's
features (see Customizing Your Phone on page 12). In addition, this section provides
important information about
• Phone-specific menu selection and data entry.
• Phone and Web Configuration Tool passwords.
• Call encryption.
• Your comfort and safety.

Accessing Your Phone's Features

The Superkey Menu Interface

You can use the fixed-function keys to directly access most features on your phone. For other
features, use the phone's Superkey Menu Interface. To access the Superkey Menu Interface,
simply press Superkey on your phone. For more information on the Superkey menus, see
The Superkey Menu Interface on page 7. For menu selection information, see Menu Item
Selection on page 8.

The Web Configuration Tool

In addition to your phone, you can use the Web Configuration Tool to make calls, and to
personalize and modify your phone's settings. As well, your Administrator can use the tool to
perform administrative tasks. Refer to the online help system in the Web Configuration tool
for complete programming instructions. The Web Configuration Tool is accessible from any
Personal Computer (PC) connected to the Internet and running a web browser that is either
• Netscape Navigator 4.8 or later.
• Internet Explorer 4 or later.
• Any other equivalent browser.
Note: If your network is protected by a firewall, you may not be able to access your phone
using the Web Configuration Tool from outside the firewall.
There are two login access accounts for the tool: an administrator account and a user
account. The account used to log in determines the type of web configuration pages
accessed. For instructions on how to access the Web Configuration Tool, see Accessing the
Web Configuration Tool on page 8. For password information, see Passwords on page 9. For
