3.1  Installation and Setup 
If your system administrator has not already setup your 6731i, please refer to the Aastra Model 
6731i Installation Guide for basic installation and physical setup of the 6731i. 
 
  Your system or network administrator manages the configuration and updates for the IP 
phones on the configuration server. 
  New updates to your phone can be automatically scheduled from the server by your system 
administrator. Automatic updates are scheduled during non-business hours or slow call 
periods.

through this process the first time you plug in your phone and every time you restart your phone.

Other startup screens will only appear the first time you connect your phone, or if your phone has 
been set back to factory defaults. 
3.2.1  Configuration and Updates

configuration server. If a new update is found, the phone displays the update it is installing (either 
"Updating Config" or "New Firmware"). This process could take a few moments while the 
configuration server downloads the latest updates.
