ANAGE THE CONFIGURATION FILES IN MX-ONE SERVICE NODE MANAGER
• Go to Telephony > IP Phone > Configuration file. Press Add to open the new
configuration file.
Make sure that Mitel SIP Desk phones family is selected and enter the data into
the configuration file which is automatically stored under the correct directory in
the IP Phone Software Server when pressing Apply.
• To force the telephones to fetch the new configuration files(aastra.cfg,
<model>.cfg) and new firmware (<model>.st) there are a number of cases:
– The telephones will as part of the startup check for new configuration and
firmware. A startup will occur when the power is connected. If the phone
gets power over Ethernet, the LAN switch can be controlled to turn off and
on the power to force the telephones to startup.
– If the telephones are already registered to the PBX, select the Unregistra-
tion option to force the telephones to fetch the new configuration file.
– The telephones will after less than 24 hours automatically fetch the new
configuration file and if necessary download a new firmware according to
settings in the generated aastra.cfg file.
– Restart the telephones manually via the phone GUI.
6.2 EDITING AN EXISTING CONFIGURATION FILE
The existing configuration file can be updated using the MX-ONE Service Node
Manager.
The following procedure shall be used when the configuration file shall be changed:
1. Log in to MX-ONE Service Node Manager and select:
Telephony > IP Phone > Configuration file
2. Take a backup copy of the existing configuration file by pressing the backup
icon.
3. Use the Change icon to view/edit the configuration file. When the adaptation of
the file is completed, it is automatically stored under the aastra67xx directory in
the IP Phone Software Server.
4. For the telephones that are already registered to the PBX, select the Unregis-
tration option to force the telephones to fetch the new configuration file. For the
not registered telephones, see section 6.1 Create a Configuration File on page 7.
6.3 SCRATCH PAD WHEN CREATING THE CONFIGURATION
FILE
If a new parameter has to be added into the aastra.cfg file but there is no support for
this new parameter in MX-ONE Service Node Manager, the scratch pad can be used.
Another usage is if MX-ONE Service Node Manager creates a parameter value, but
another value is requested.
It is a free text window where the new parameter or parameter value can be entered.
The parameters are added at the end of the aastra.cfg file. If a parameter exists twice
in the configuration file, the telephone uses the value at the end of the file.
The scratch pad is found at the bottom of the page:
Telephony > IP Phone > Configuration File > General Setting
