During installation and maintenance, the phones download software and settings files. In order to do this a phone first
request files for an HTTPS server. If it gets no response it then tries to obtain the files from an HTTP server. 4600 and
5600 Series phones will then try TFTP. The address of the server to use is provided through DHCP or entered during static
phone installation.
· The phones will check the file server every time they are restarted. However if they do not find it they will continue
by using the existing files they have. Therefore there is no requirement for the file sever to be permanently
available. The file server is only required during phone installation and maintenance.
