1603Sw-I Sip Ip Deskphone Upgrade And Binary Files; Choosing The Right Binary File And Upgrade File - Avaya one-X 1603SW Administrator's Manual

Telephone Software and Binary Files
Edition SIP for 1603SW-I IP Deskphones Installation and Maintenance Guide. When the
deskphone is first plugged in, a software download from an HTTP or HTTPS server starts to
give the phone its proper functionality.
For software upgrades, Session Manager and SES provide the capability for a remote reboot of
the 1603SW-I SIP IP Deskphones. As a result of a message from SM, the deskphone
automatically starts reboot procedures. If new software is available on the file server, the
deskphone downloads it as part of the reboot process. The Avaya one-X™ Deskphone Value
Edition SIP for 1603SW-I IP Deskphones Installation and Maintenance Guide covers upgrades
of a previously installed deskphone and related information.

1603SW-I SIP IP Deskphone Upgrade and Binary Files

Choosing the Right Binary File and Upgrade File

Every software release contains the files needed to operate the 1603SW-I IP Deskphones. Two
software download "bundles" of files are available for use with 1603SW-I IP Deskphones.
Which bundle you select depends on whether your telephone environment is primarily
SIP-centric or H.323-centric. When all or the majority of your IP telephones are SIP-based,
select the software download bundle for "1603SW-I SIP Telephones" from the Avaya Support
Web site. The SIP bundle contains a unique version of the 16xxupgrade.txt file that assumes
SIP is the default protocol for your 1603SW-I IP Deskphones and that H.323 is the exception.
For more information on SIP-centric environments, see "Converting Software on 1603SW-I IP
Deskphones" in the Avaya one-X™ Deskphone Value Edition SIP for 1603SW-I IP Deskphones
Installation and Maintenance Guide.
Each SIP software bundle contains:
An upgrade file, 16xxupgrade.txt, which allows you to upgrade to the new software

release. The 16xxupgrade.txt file tells the telephone whether a software upgrade is
needed. All Avaya IP deskphones attempt to read this file whenever they reset. The
upgrade file also causes the telephone to download the 46xxsettings.txt file.
A second upgrade file, Alternate_16xxupgrade.txt, which allows you to use both SIP and

H.323 IP telephones in the same environment. You only need this file if you also want
some of your 1603SW-I IP Deskphones to run H.323 software. If so, use an ASCII text
editor to read the directions in the file and to add the file names of the H.323 software files
that you want to use. This file must then be saved as "16xxupgrade.txt" and will overwrite
the 16xxupgrade.txt file originally provided in the bundle.
