Chapter 3: Local Administrative (Craft) Options
Introduction
During installation or after you have successfully installed an IP deskphone, you might be
instructed to administer one of the manual procedures described in this chapter. These local
administrative procedures are also referred to as Craft Procedures.
There are two forms of Local Administrative Options. One allows access to all the capabilities
and functionality described in this chapter while the other allows access only to an administrable
level of VPN capabilities and functionality. The VPN-specific option allows the administrator to
grant VPN users access to the VPN procedure itself, while preventing these users from
accessing any other Local Administrative Procedure. The administrator may grant the VPN user
permission to change VPN settings or only to view them. For more information on access to
VPN-only Local Administrative Options, see the VPN Setup Guide for 9600 Series IP
Telephones (Document 16-602968).
Note:
Note:
You can modify the settings file to set parameters for any IP deskphones that
download their upgrade script and application files from the same HTTP server.
See Chapter 4:
Maintaining 9600 Series IP Deskphones and “9600 Series IP
Telephone Scripts and Application Files” in Chapter 4 of the Avaya one-X™
Deskphone H.323 Administrator Guide.

CAUTION:
CAUTION:
Only trained installers or technicians should perform local (craft) procedures.
Perform these procedures only if instructed to do so by the system or LAN
administrator.
Static administration of these options causes upgrades to work differently than if
they are administered dynamically. Values assigned to options in static
administration are not changed by upgrade scripts. These values remain stored
in the telephone until either:
- a new boot file is downloaded, or
- the IP telephone is reset, as indicated in Reset System Values
on page 48.
Use these option-setting procedures only with static addressing and, as always, only
if instructed by the system or LAN administrator. Do not use these option-setting
procedures if you are using DHCP. DHCP is the Dynamic Addressing Process, as
indicated in P
ower-Up and Reset Operation (Dynamic Addressing Process) on
page 19.
