Upgrade Phone Firmware

The phone uses TFTP to download firmware from a TFTP server, or HTTP to download
firmware from the HTTP server. You can use either the phone or the Web Configuration Tool
(see The Web Configuration Tool on page 7) to perform a firmware upgrade. If you use the
Web Configuration Tool, access the tool's Firmware Update page.
If you use the Web Configuration Tool, the phone's original configuration is preserved;
therefore, the phone will function as it did prior to upgrade, without the need to reconfigure
settings.
If you use the options available on the phone, previous configurations may not be saved and
restored; therefore, you may have to manually reload a previously saved configuration file or
manually reconfigure phone parameters.
IMPORTANT:If you are upgrading from a previous load, please ensure you are following the
correct upgrade procedure as outlined in the latest product Release Notes available from the
SIP Software Download Page. The SIP Software Download Page provides access to the
latest SIP firmware loads, upgrade procedures, and Release Notes.
To access the latest SIP firmware loads, upgrade procedures, and Release Notes:
1. In your browser, go to www.mitel.com, click Login, and log in to Mitel OnLine.
2. Move your cursor over Products and Services, and select SIP Desktop Devices.
3. In "Related Links" click SIP Software Download Page for firmware loads or Product
Documentation to access the SIP documentation.
