10. Modify the 46xxsettings.txt file as desired.
11. Restart the HTTP/HTTPS server.
12. Reset your Avaya IP Telephones.
You can download a default upgrade file from http://www.avaya.com/support. This file allows
the telephone to use default settings for customer-definable options. Of course, these settings
can also be changed with DHCP or in some cases, from the telephone's dialpad itself. However,
you might want to open the default file and administer the options to add useful functionality
to your Avaya IP Telephones. This file must reside in the same directory as the upgrade file,
and must be called 46xxsettings.scr or 46xxsetting.txt. The Avaya IP Telephones can operate
without this file.
Note:
Most Windows systems interpret the file extension
Telephones originally used *.scr to indicate a script file. We highly recommend that the
settings file have the extension

Contents of the settings file

The settings file can include any of six types of statements, one per line:
• Tags, which are lines that begin with a single "#" character, followed by a single space
character, followed by a text string with no spaces.
• Goto commands, of the form
continue interpreting the settings file at the next line after a
statement exists, the rest of the settings file is ignored.
• Conditionals, of the form
cause the Goto command to be processed if the value of the parameter named
parameter_nameexactly matches string. If no such parameter named parameter_name
exists, the entire conditional is ignored. The only parameters that can be used in a
conditional statement are: GROUP, MACADDR, MODEL and MODEL4. In pre-6.0
software releases, BOOTNAME and SIG could also be used. In software release 3.1 and
later, VPNACTIVE can also be used. In software release 6.0 and later, SIG_IN_USE can
also be used.
• SET commands, of the form
specified value to be ignored for the associated parameter_name so the default or
previously administered value is retained. All values must be text strings, even if the value
itself is numeric, a dotted decimal IP Address, etc.
• Comments, which are statements with a "
