Advanced Operational Features Advanced Operational Features Description This section provides the following information about advanced features of the IP phones: Feature Description TR-069 Support The IP Phones support the Technical Report (TR) 069 Protocol, a Protocol that provides the communication between Customer-Premises Equipment (CPE) (like the IP Phones) and Auto Configuration Servers (ACS) over DSL/broadband connections.
Assistant, whereby the Assistant can answer, divert, or push the filtered call back to the Executive (6730i, 6731i, 6753i, 6755i, 6757i, 6757i CT, 9143i, 9840i, and 9840i CT IP phones only).
The IP phones can send the MAC address and line number in the REGISTER packets making it easier for the call server when a user configures the phones via the Aastra Web UI or the IP Phone UI. The following two configurable headers send this information to the call server: Aastra-Mac: <mac address>...
Page 528
Advanced Operational Features Aastra Web UI Click on Advanced Settings->Global SIP->Advanced SIP Setting. Enable the "Send MAC Address in REGISTER Message" field by checking the check box. (Disable this field by unchecking the box). Enable the "Send Line Number in REGISTER Message" field by checking the check box.
Advanced Operational Features SIP Message Sequence for Blind Transfer The SIP message sequence for Blind Transfer avoids the transfer target having two simultaneous calls. Prior to release 1.4, a CANCEL message was sent to the transfer target (if it was in a ringing state) after sending a REFER to the transferee to complete the transfer.
Advanced Operational Features Update Caller ID During a Call It is possible for a proxy or call server to update the Caller ID information that displays on the phone during a call, by modifying the SIP Contact header in the re-INVITE message. The phone displays the updated name and number informa- tion contained within the Contact header.
Also, when this feature is disabled, more than one call can negotiate complex audio codecs since only a single call is decoding audio at a time. You can configure this feature via the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI. 41-001343-02 REV05 – 07.2014...
For the specific parameters you can set in the configuration files for single call restriction on the 6757i CT and 9480i CT, see Appendix A, the section, “Single Call Restriction Setting” page A-210. Aastra Web UI Click on Advanced Settings->Global SIP->RTP Settings. Enable the "Two Call Support" field by checking the check box.
Note: The DND, CFWD, and ACD server-side feature is not applicable to the CT handset. This feature is configurable using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI. How it Works on the Phone UI When you enable the “as-feature-event” on the phone, AND you activate a DND, CFWD, and/or ACD key, pressing the key performs as follows: •...

Enable the "As-Feature-Event Subscription" field, by checking the check box. (Disable this field by unchecking the box).
You can specify how long failed servers remain on the blacklist in the IP phone’s configuration file or in the Aastra Web UI. The default setting is 300 seconds (5 minutes). If you set the duration to 0 seconds, then you disable the blacklist feature.
Page 536
“Blacklist Duration Setting” page A-211. Configuring a Server Blacklist Using the Aastra Web UI You use the following procedure to configure Blacklist Duration using the Aastra Web UI. Aastra Web UI Click on Advanced Settings->Global SIP->Advanced SIP Settings In the “Blacklist Duration” field, specify the length of time, in seconds, that a failed server remains on the server blacklist. The IP phone avoids sending a SIP message to a failed server (if another server is available) for this amount of time.
Advanced Operational Features Whitelist Proxy To protect your IP phone network, you can configure a “Whitelist Proxy” feature that screens incoming call requests received by the IP phones. When this feature is enabled, an IP phone accepts call requests from a trusted proxy server only. The IP phone rejects any call requests from an untrusted proxy server.
Advanced Operational Features Configuring Whitelist Proxy Using the Aastra Web UI Use the following procedure to configure the Whitelist Proxy feature using the Aastra Web UI. Aastra Web UI Click on Advanced Settings->Global SIP->Advanced SIP Settings The "Whitelist Proxy" field is disabled by default. To enable this field, check the box.

On the IP phones, an Administrator can configure TLS and Persistent TLS on a global-basis only, using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI. There is a keep-alive feature for persistent TLS connections only. Administrators can configure this keep-alive feature using the parameter called “sip persistent tls keep alive”.
Page 540
Advanced Operational Features Configuring TLS Using the Configuration Files You use the following parameters to configure TLS in the configuration files: • sip transport protocol • sips persistent tls • sip persistent tls keep alive • sip send sips over tls •...
Page 541
Configuring TLS Using the Aastra Web UI To configure TLS using the Aastra Web UI, you must enable TLS or Persistent TLS first. Then you must define the TLS certif- icate file names that you want the phone to use. Use the following procedure to configure TLS using the Aastra Web UI.
Factory default and recovery mode deletes all certificates and private keys, and sets the EAP type to disabled. You can configure the 802.1x feature on the IP phone using the configuration files, the IP Phone UI, or the Aastra Web UI.
Page 543
If configuring 802.1x using the IP Phone UI, the certificates and private keys must already be configured and stored on the phone. Use the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI to load certificates and private keys. IP Phone UI Press to enter the Options List.
Page 544
Select EAP-TLS to configure the phone to use TLS authentication. Note: The 802.1x Protocol is disabled by default. If you select EAP-TLS authentication, you must use the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI to configure the certificates and private key for the phone.
Page 545
EAP-TLS (phone uses TLS authentication) Note: The 802.1x Protocol is disabled by default. If you select EAP-TLS authentication, you must use the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI to configure the certificates and private key for the phone. Press EAP-TLS Settings.
Page 546

Advanced Operational Features Aastra Web UI In the “Root and Intermediate Certificates Filename” field, enter the filename that contains the root and intermediate certificates related to the local certificate. For example: root_Intermed_certifi.pem. In the “Local Certificate Filename” field, enter the filename that contains the local certificate. For example: localcertificate.pem.
Removing UserAgent and Server SIP Headers Currently, the phone always configures the SIP UserAgent/Server headers to contain: Aastra <PhoneModel>/<FirmwareVersion> You can suppress the addition of these headers by using the following parameter in the configuration files: • sip user-agent Setting this parameter allows you to enable or disable the addition of the User-Agent and Server SIP headers from the SIP stack.
If an IP phone user enters an invalid billing code, the call fails. Mandatory versus Optional Billing Codes This release of the Aastra IP phones supports two types of billing codes: Mandatory and Optional. The Sylantro server con- figuration determines which type of billing code is used on the IP phones.
Advanced Operational Features Using mandatory billing codes, if the user is configuring a Speed Dial number, then they enter the number using the following format: – <phonenumber>%23<billingcode> To use this format with the default dial plan terminator (#), the # sign required by Sylantro as a delimiter should be represented as an escaped character by using the sequence %23.
If the NAPTR record is returned "test.aastra.com SIP+D2T .._sip._tcp.test.aastra.com", where the service type TCP mismatches the phone configured transport protocol “UDP”, the phone will ignore this value and use the default value “_sip._udp.test.aastra.com" for the “SRV” lookup. Note: The phone does not use the service type sent by the NAPTR response to switch its transport pro- tocol, nor does it use the NAPTR response to determine whether to use a secure or unsecure com- munication path.
Advanced Operational Features Enabling/Disabling “Out of Order SIP Requests” Use the following procedure to enable/disable “out of order SIP requests”. Configuration Files For the specific parameter you can set in the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section, “Ignore Out of Order SIP Requests” page A-216.
Advanced Operational Features Configurable Codec Negotiation Behavior By default, when the phone receivess an SDP Offer with several codecs defined for the media stream, the phone will reply with an SDP Answer containing all the codecs present in the Offer (as per RFC 3264). A configuration parameter (“sip single codec reply in sdp”) is available that allows Administrators to change the phone’s codec negotiation behavior so that the phone will indicate only one preferred codec in the SDP when replying to an SDP offer (as per 3GPP TS 24.229).
Advanced Operational Features If there is no Reason Header in the status message, the behaviour of the phone should be unchanged: • “Busy” is displayed for the status codes 486 and 503 (SERVICE UNAVAILABLE) and the busy tone will be played, •...
Advanced Operational Features header. • If the call is not forwarded via a registered proxy server - and therefore is not a “Trusted Entity” - the IP phone UI does not display any trust information contained in the PAI header. The phones provide the ability for the Administrator to enable or disable the display of P-Asserted Identity (PAI) informa- tion on the phone using the following parameter in the configuration files: •...
Advanced Operational Features By default, the IP Phones use the long format. However, an Administrator can provision the short (compact) format using the configuration files. The Aastra Web UI does not support this configuration feature. Enabling/Disabling the Compact SIP Headers Feature Use the following procedure to enable/disable the Compact SIP Header in the SIP packet.

Chapter 7 Encrypted Files on the IP Phone About this Chapter This chapter provides information about encryption on the IP phones and provides methods an administrator can use to store encrypted files to a server. Topics This chapter covers the following topics: Topic Page Encrypted Files on the IP Phone...
To make changes to the configuration files, the System Administrator must save the original files. Note: If the use of encrypted configuration files is enabled (via security.tuz or pre-provisioned on the IP phone) the aastra.cfg, <model>.cfg, and <mac>.cfg files are ignored, and only the encrypted equivalent files aastra.tuz, <model>.tuz, and <mac>.tuz are read.
Procedure to Encrypt Configuration Files To encrypt the IP phone configuration files (using a Microsoft Windows OS): Obtain the anacrypt encryption tool (anacrypt.exe) from your Aastra representative. Open a command line window application (i.e. DOS window). At the prompt, enter anacrypt.exe and press <Return>.
The encryption key is placed in a plain text MAC-specific configuration file that the server downloads to the phone. After the phone receives the file, it updates the encryption key. This method of encryption does not affect the implementation of the Aastra method of file encryption. Note: The aastra.cfg file is not encrypted with this feature.
