Prefix Dialing
The IP phones now support a prefix dialing feature for outgoing calls.
How it works
You can manually dial a number or dial a number from a list. The phone
automatically maps the pre-configured prepended digit in the configuration, to the
outgoing number. When a match is found, the prepended digits are added to the
beginning of the dial string and the call is dialed.
You can enable this feature by adding a prepend digit(s) to the end of the Local
Dial Plan parameter string in the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI at
Basic Settings->Preferences->General.
SIP IP Phone Models 480i, 480i CT, 9112i, 9133i Release Notes
New Features in 1.4.1
Note: The prepend digits are also added if the dialing times-out on a
partial match.
For example, if you add a prepend map of “[2-9]XXXXXXXXX,91”, the IP
phone adds the digits “91” to any 10-digit number beginning with any digit from 2
to 9 that is dialed out. Other examples of prepend mappings are:
• 1X+#,9 (Prepends 9 to any digit string beginning with “1” and terminated
with “#”.)
• 6XXX,579 (Prepends “579” to any 4-digit string starting with “6”.)

IP Phone Release Notes 1.4.1
New Features in 1.4.1
XML Objects and Enhancements
The following paragraphs describe the XML enhancements in release 1.4.1.
XML: AastraIPPhoneStatus object
A new XML AastraIPPhoneStatus object has been implemented on the IP
phones. This object provides the ability to display a status message on a single
designated line on the phone’s idle screen when XML information is pushed from
the servers.
The 480i/480i CT phones display messages on the second line in the phone
window. (where “No Service” would display if there was no service. If there is no
service on the phone, the “No Service” message overrides the XML object
message). The 9112i/9133i phones display messages on the first line (overriding
the DisplayName). Long messages that are wider then the phone screen get
truncated.
If the phone receives multiple messages, the first message received displays first
and the remaining messages scroll consecutively one at a time. Messages remain
displayed until they are removed (by the server) or the phone reboots. The
AastraIPPhoneStatus object feature is always enabled.
Note: You can set the amount of time, in seconds, that a message displays
to the phone before scrolling to the next message. For more information
about this feature, see “Scroll Delay Option” on page 21.
AastraIPPhoneStatus Structure
The AastraIPPhoneStatus object describes the structure of the XML document
that is used to send status messages to the phone. The basic structure of the
AastraIPPhoneStatus object is:
<AastraIPPhoneStatus>
<Session>My session ID</Session>
<Message index="Msg index">Message</Message>
<! -- Additional status messages may be added under new Message tags-->
<AastraIPPhoneStatus/>
16 41-001024-00, Rev 09, Release 1.4.1
SIP IP Phone Models 480i, 480i CT, 9112i, 9133i Release Notes
New Features in 1.4.1
The ”My Session ID” attribute must be unique to the application sending the
XML object to the phone. The application generates the session ID, which could
be a combination of letters and numbers. There is a maximum of one <Session>
tag per PhoneStatus object, so the <Session> tag is optional.
Examples
Example 1: The following is an example of using the AastraIPPhoneStatus
object:
<AastraIPPhoneStatus>
<Session>abc12345</Session>
<Message index="3">Server side call forwarding disabled</Message>
<AastraIPPhoneStatus/>
In this example, the AastraIPPhoneStatus object sends the default behavior with
the status message (i.e., the status message is added to the scroll list).
Example 2: You can also use the AastraIPPhoneStatus object to remove status
messages from the display, by setting an empty tag for the <Message index> tag.
The following example removes the status message that was posted to the phone
in Example 1.
<AastraIPPhoneStatus>
<Session>abc12345</Session>
<Message index="3"/>
<AastraIPPhoneStatus/>

IP Phone Release Notes 1.4.1
New Features in 1.4.1
Beep Option
You can enable or disable a BEEP option in the AastraIPPhoneStatus object.
When the phone receives a status message, the BEEP notifies the user that the
message is being displayed. The following attribute enables/disables the BEEP
from being heard:
< AastraIPPhoneStatus Beep="yes|no"> (case sensitive)
This attribute is optional. If notification is required, the attribute must be in the
ROOT. If the BEEP attribute is set to "yes" (i.e. Beep="yes") then it is an
indication to the phone to sound a beep when it receives the object. If the Beep
attribute is set to "no" (i.e. Beep="no") or not present, then the default behavior is
no beep is heard when the object arrives to the phone.
Beep Option via Configuration Files and Aastra Web UI
The BEEP option can also be enabled or disabled via the configuration files and
the Aastra Web UI using the following parameters:
• xml beep notification (via configuration files)
• XML Beep Support (via the Aastra Web UI)
The value set in the configuration files and Aastra Web UI override the attribute
you specify in the AastraIPPhoneStatus object.
For example, if the AastraIPPhoneStatus object has the attribute of Beep=”yes”,
and you uncheck (disable) the “XML Beep Support” in the Aastra Web UI, the
phone does not beep when it receives an AastraIPPhoneStatus object.
Setting the BEEP option in the configuration files and the Aastra Web UI is
dynamic and applies to the phone immediately.

SIP IP Phone Models 480i, 480i CT, 9112i, 9133i Release Notes
New Features in 1.4.1
XML: AastraIPPhoneExecute Object
A new XML AastraIPPhoneExecute object has been implemented on the IP
phones. This object provides the ability to execute commands on the phone using
XML. Release 1.4.1 supports the following Execute object commands:
• Reset - This command waits until the phone is idle and then executes a reset.
• NoOp - This command has no affect on the IP phone. It is made up of a blank
URI. You can use this feature when you need to press a key on the phone to
access a feature, and it is not necessary to display anything.
Since the server forces phone firmware changes, the AastraIPPhoneExecute
object was implemented to send the reset command to the phone.
AastraIPPhoneExecute Object Structure
The AastraIPPhoneExecute object describes the structure of the XML document
that is used to send a command to the phone. It delivers multiple execution
requests to the phone. The basic structure of the AastraIPPhoneExecute object is:
<AastraIPPhoneExecute>
<ExecuteItem URI ="the URL or URI to be executed"/>
<! -- Additional execution items may be added under new ExecuteItem tag-->
</AastraIPPhoneExecute>
41-001024-00, Rev 09, Release 1.4.1 23
IP Phone Release Notes 1.4.1
New Features in 1.4.1
Using the Reset Command
The <ExecuteItem URI =""/> tag can be entered with the command the phone
should execute. Upon receiving an AastraIPPhoneExecute object, the phone
begins executing the URL or URI specified.
The following example shows an AastraIPPhoneExecute object using the Reset
command:
<AastraIPPhoneExecute>
<ExecuteItem URI="Command: Reset"/>
</AastraIPPhoneExecute>
Note: If you specify a command as a URI attribute (instead of a URL),
the keyword "Command" must be prepended in the value of the URI
attribute so that the phone recognizes it as a URI attribute value. If you
enter a URI and leave out the “Command” keyword, the phone interprets
the value in the URI attribute as a URL containing network resources.
The following example shows the AastraIPPhoneExecute object using a URL:
<AastraIPPhoneExecute>
<ExecuteItem URI="http://aastraserver/message.xml"/>
</AastraIPPhoneExecute>
When the phone receives this object, it displays the specified XML URI page.
Using the NoOp Command
You can use the AastraIPPhoneExecute object as an object to create a blank
display (it has no affect on the IP phone). It is made up of a blank URI. You can
use this feature when you need to press a key on the phone to access a feature, and
it is not necessary to display anything.
The following example shows an AastraIPPhoneExecute object using a blank
URI:
<AastraIPPhoneExecute>
<ExecuteItem URI=””/>

New Features in 1.4.1
How it works
When a startup, successful registration, incoming call, outgoing call,
offhook, or onhook call event occurs
the event has an action URI configured. If the phones finds a URI configured, any
variables configured (in the form $$VARIABLENAME$$) are replaced with the
value of the appropriate variable. After all of the variables are bound, the phone
executes a GET on the URI. The Action URI binds all variables and is not
dependant on the state of the phone.
For example, if you enter the following string for the action uri outgoing
parameter:
action uri outgoing: http://10.50.10.140/
outgoing.pl?number=$$REMOTENUMBER$$
and you dial out the number 5551212, the phone executes a GET on:
http://10.50.10.140/outgoing.pl?number=5551212
Note: If the phone can’t find the Action URI you specify, it returns a
“NULL” response. For example,
http://10.50.10.140/outgoing.pl?number=
on the phone, the phone checks to see if

XML: Softkey URI
In addition to specifying variables for the Action URIs, you can also specify
variables in the XML softkey URIs that are bound when the key is pressed. These
variables are the same as those used in the Action URIs.
When an administrator enters an XML softkey URI either via the Aastra Web UI
or the configuration files, they can specify the following variables:
• $$SIPUSERNAME$$
• $$SIPAUTHNAME$$
• $$PROXYURL$$
• $$REMOTENUMBER$$
• $$DISPLAYNAME$$
• $$INCOMINGNAME$$
When the softkey is pressed, if the phone finds a URI configured with variables
(in the form $$VARIABLENAME$$), they are replaced with the value of the
appropriate variable. After all of the variables are bound, the softkey executes a
GET on the URI.
Example
For example, if the administrator specifies an XML softkey with the value:
http://10.50.10.140/script.pl?name=$$SIPUSERNAME$$
This softkey executes a GET on:
http://10.50.10.140/script.pl?name=42512
assuming that the sip username of the specific line is 42512.
You can configure the XML softkey URI variables via the configuration files or
the Aastra Web UI.

New Features in 1.4.1
XML: HTTP Refresh Header
A new HTTP refresh header feature has been implemented on the IP phones. This
feature includes the following:
• All current XML screen objects have the ability to be refreshed by adding a
Refresh and URL setting to the HTTP headers. (see Refresh setting format
below)
• The Refresh setting is set by the XML application and it is up to the
application to decide which objects it wants to refresh.
Note: This HTTP refresh header feature only applies to objects that
display to the screen.
The Refresh setting must be included in the HTTP header. The XML application
decides which objects it wants to use with this setting. The phone recognizes this
setting when parsing the HTTP header. If the setting is present, then it passes
along the refresh timeout and the URL to the ParserData object, which all XML
screen objects inherit from. The ParserData class also has a timer, which must be
set to expire at the next refresh time. When the timer expires (time to refresh the
screen), the phone requests the URL again and displays the refreshed screen.
Refresh Setting Format
The following is the Refresh setting format for the HTTP header:
Refresh: <timeout>; URL=<page to load>
The following example is a Refresh setting for use in an HTTP header:
Refresh: 3; URL=http://10.50.10.140/cgi-bin/update.xml
Note: You must use the Refresh and URL parameters in order for this
feature to work in the HTTP header.

New Features in 1.4.1
Backup Proxy/Registrar Support
The IP phones now support a backup SIP proxy and backup SIP registrar feature.
If the primary server is unavailable, the phone automatically switches to the
backup server allowing the user's phone to remain in service.
How it Works
All SIP registration messages are sent to the primary registrar first. If the server is
unavailable, then a new registration request is sent to the backup registrar. This
also applies to registration renewal messages, which try the primary server before
the backup.
Similarly, any outgoing calls attempt to use the primary proxy first, then the
backup if necessary. In addition, subscriptions for BLF, BLA, and explicit MWI
can also use the backup proxy when the primary fails. Outgoing calls and the
previously mentioned subscriptions behave the same as registrations, where the
primary proxy is tried before the backup.
You can configure the backup SIP proxy on a global or per-line basis via the
configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.
Configuring via the Configuration Files
You can configure the following parameters for a backup SIP proxy and backup
SIP registrar.

Auto-discovery Using mDNS
Release 1.4.1 introduces a process that allows the phones to auto-discover all
servers on a network using mDNS. When the IP phone discovers a TFTP server, it
is automatically configured by that TFTP server.
An unconfigured phone (phone right out of the box) added to a network, attempts
to auto-discover a configuration server on the network without any end-user
intervention. When it receives DHCP option 66 (TFTP server), it automatically
gets configured by the TFTP server.
An already configured phone (either previously configured by auto-discovery or
manually configured) added to a network, uses its predefined configuration to
boot up.
Notes:
1. Configuration parameters received via DHCP do not constitute
configuration information, with the exception of a TFTP server.
Therefore, you can plug a phone into a DHCP environment, still use the
auto-discovery process, and still allow the use of the TFTP server
parameter to set the configuration server.
New Features in 1.4.1
2. DHCP option 66 (TFTP server details) overrides the mDNS phase of
the auto-discovery. Therefore, the DHCP option takes priority and the
remaining process of auto-discovery continues.
3. As the phone performs auto-discovery, all servers in the network
(including the TFTP server), display in the phone window. However, only
the server configured for TFTP automatically configures the phone.

IP Phone Features for Sylantro Servers
Last Call Return (lcr) Support
A new feature has been added to the IP phones that allow a user or administrator
configure a "last call return" function on a softkey or programmable key.
to
This feature is for Sylantro servers only.
You can configure the “lcr” softkey feature via the configuration files and the
Aastra Web UI.
How it works
If
you configure "lcr" on a softkey or programmable key, and a call comes
into your phone, after you are finished with the call and hang up, you can
press the key configured for “lcr” and the phone dials the last call you received.
When you configure an “lcr” softkey, the label “LCR” displays next to that
softkey on the IP phone. When the Sylantro server detects an “lcr” request, it
translates this request and routes the call to the last caller.
For the 480i/480i CT, applicable parameters to configure for “lcr” are:
• softkeyN type (“Type” in Web UI)
• softkeyN line (“Line” in Web UI)
• softkeyN states (“Idle, Connected, Incoming, Outgoing” in Web UI)
For the 9112i/9133i, applicable parameters to configure for “lcr” are:
• prgkeyN type (“Type” in Web UI)
• prgkeyN line (“Line” in Web UI)
Note: For more information about “lcr” see the

configuration server (TFTP, FTP or HTTP) has been reduced from 10 minutes to
approximately 30 seconds.
When the phone boots up, it attempts to contact the configuration server (if the
configuration server parameters are configured on the phone), for 4 seconds. The
phone then displays a “Skip” button. After an additional 30 seconds has expired,
or if the user presses the “Skip” button, the phone continues the boot process
using the stored configuration.
At any point during this period, if the phone successfully contacts the
configuration server, it automatically continues and attempts to download its
configuration and any new firmware from that server.

New Features in 1.4.1
480i CT Only
Single Call Restriction (480i CT only)
A new feature has been implemented on the 480i CT that allows an administrator
to enable or disable a single call restriction between the 480i CT base unit and a
call server.
When this feature is enabled (set to 1), you can make separate active calls from
the 480i CT base unit and from the cordless handset. If this feature is disabled (set
to 0), only one call can be active at a time either from the base unit or from the
handset. When this feature is disabled, and you make an active call on either the
base unit or the handset, any other attempt to make an active call is put on hold.
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.
Configuring via the Configuration Files
You can configure the following parameter for the 480i CT single media path
restriction.
Parameter –
