About SIP and Your Phone
About SIP and Your Phone
The following Mitel IP Phones support SIP:
• 5215 IP Phone
• 5220 IP Phone.
In SIP mode, your 5215 or 5220 IP Phone becomes an intelligent SIP phone that manages its
own call states and features. SIP uses the Internet to connect your 5215 or 5220 IP Phone to
other SIP phones. To make a call you can dial by SIP URL or IP address. You can also make
calls to phones on the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN), or “regular” phone
network. In addition, if you have an account with a SIP Service Provider, you can dial by a
user ID (Identification) name or extension number.
For information on how to program and modify features of your SIP-supported phone, refer to
this guide and to the Web Configuration Tool online Help (see Supporting Documentation on
page 2). For installation and wall-mounting information, refer to the Installation Guide
packaged with your phone.
User SIP Account
To make a call by dialing a user ID name or extension number, you need a user name and
password, and must be registered with a SIP Service Provider; otherwise, you can still use
the phone, but will not be able to dial by user ID name or extension number. The
Administrator usually configures SIP accounts.
Administrative Mode
Using the administrator user name and password, the Administrator can modify some
settings such as network and SIP Service Provider information, and perform such tasks as a
firmware upgrade. For more information, see Administrator Tools on page 33.
The 5215 IP Phone
The 5215 IP Phone has eight fixed-function keys, two arrow keys and seven personal keys
with built-in status indicators. The personal key on the bottom left is always your Prime Line.
Other personal keys can be programmed as Speed Dial keys. In addition, your Administrator
can program the remaining personal keys as Shared Line keys.
The 5215 IP Phone also offers a display-assisted selection of features, on-hook dialing and a
large Message Waiting/Ringing Indicator.
For more key and feature information, see Elements of Your Phone on page 5.

The 5220 IP Phone has eight fixed-function keys, two arrow keys, three softkeys and 14
personal keys with built-in status indicators. The personal key on the bottom right is always
your Prime Line. Other personal keys can be programmed as Speed Dial keys. In addition,
your Administrator can program the remaining personal keys as Shared Line keys.
Your 5220 IP Phone also offers a display-assisted selection of features, on-hook dialing and
a large Message Waiting/Ringer Indicator.

About SIP and Your Phone
Elements of Your Phone
This section describes elements of your phone, and is organized in relation to the number
call-outs (e.g.
Display Screen
Provides a high-resolution, back-lit viewing area for ease of use. When the phone is idle, the
time and date appear on the display screen. When using the Superkey Menu Interface,
prompts and feature information appear on the display screen.
Message Waiting/Ringing Indicator
Flashes orange when you have a new message in your voice mailbox or an incoming call.
The Message Waiting/Ringing Indicator is solid orange while the phone reboots.
Soft Keys (5220 IP Phone only)
Select associated commands listed on the bottom line of the display screen. These
commands change dynamically depending on the modes of the operation and the menu
currently displayed.
) in Figures 1 and 2 (on page 4).
Fixed-function Keys
Give you access to the following phone functions:
• Superkey (blue): provides access to the phone's menus.
• Trans/Conf: initiates a call transfer or establishes a three-party conference call.
• Redial: calls the last number, name, SIP URL or IP address dialed.
• Message: provides access to your voice mailbox (optional).
• Hold (red): places the current call on hold.
• Cancel: ends a call when pressed during the call, and, when you are programming the
phone, eliminates any input and returns to the previous menu level.
• Speaker: initiates a handsfree call, switches between handset and handsfree mode or
disconnects a call while in handsfree mode.
• Microphone: toggles the microphone off and on. In handsfree mode, an orange light
indicates that the microphone is on; therefore, your party hears you. In handset and
headset mode, the microphone key acts like a Mute key, and an orange light indicates
that the microphone is off; therefore, your party cannot hear you.
Arrow Keys
Adjust the volume of the handset, headset, speaker or ringer. When entering letters, these
keys change character input from upper or lower case and vice versa. These keys are also
used to change the display contrast, and to navigate through some menus when
programming the phone. In this guide, the arrow keys are represented by
and .
Keypad
When making a call, used to enter the number, name, SIP URL or IP address you want to
dial. When programming the 5215 or 5220 IP Phone, used to enter information. Depending

on the context, lets you enter only numbers, or numbers or letters and some special
characters.
Designation Card and Lens
Used for labeling Personal keys and for holding the designation card in place. For
information on how to remove the lens and install the designation card, refer to the
Installation Guide packaged with your phone.
Line Keys
Allow you to initiate, receive and manage calls by using the pre-assigned Line keys. The
default Line key is Line 1. On the 5215 IP Phone, Line 1 is the bottom left key (see Figure 1
on page 4), and, on the 5220 IP Phone, Line 1 is the bottom right key (see Figure 2 on page
4). If a line is busy, subsequent calls are received on the next available Line keys. There are
two Line keys on the 5215 IP Phone, and four Line keys on the 5220 IP Phone. The Line
keys are not assigned to a specific directory number or address (multi-line operation).
Personal Keys
On the 5215 IP Phone, keys 3 and 4 (counting upwards from the bottom; see Figure 1 on
page 4) provide one-touch access to programmed Speed Dial numbers. In addition, your
Administrator can program these keys as Shared Line keys. Key 5 is pre-assigned as the
Headset key, key 6 is the Advisory Message key, and key 7 is the Call Logs/Phone Book
key.
On the 5220 IP Phone, keys 1 through 7 (in the left row, counting upwards from the bottom;
see Figure 2 on page 4) provide one-touch access to programmed Speed Dial numbers. In
addition, your Administrator can program these keys as Shared Line keys. In the right row,
key 5 (counting from the bottom upwards) is pre-assigned as the Headset key, key 6 is the
Advisory Message key, and key 7 is the Call Logs/Phone Book key.
Accessories for Your Phone
Headsets
The 5215 and 5220 IP Phones support the Mitel Headset with a Feature Control Switch. The
headset must be installed in the dedicated headset jack. Installation will disable your handset
microphone. Disconnecting the headset at the jack or at the quick-disconnect plug restores
handset operation. If handset operation is required for an extended period of time, press the
Headset key to return the phone to handset mode.
Conference Units (5220 IP Phone only)
Mitel supports the 5310 IP Boardroom Conference Unit for use with the 5220 IP Phone. For
more information on the conference unit, refer to the 5310 IP Boardroom Conference Unit
documentation (see Supporting Documentation on page 2) or contact your Administrator.

Getting Started
Getting Started
After installing and familiarizing yourself with your 5215 or 5220 IP Phone, you are ready to
access and use your phone’s SIP and “regular” features. To do so, you may use either of the
following two interfaces:
• Superkey Menu Interface
• Web Configuration Tool.
This section explains how to access both interfaces so you can then customize your phone’s
features (see Customizing Your Phone on page 12). In addition, this section provides
important information about
• Phone-specific menu selection and data entry.
• Phone and Web Configuration Tool passwords.
• Call encryption.
• Your comfort and safety.
Accessing Your Phone’s Features
The Superkey Menu Interface
You can use the fixed-function keys to directly access most features on your phone. For other
features, use the phone’s Superkey Menu Interface. To access the Superkey Menu Interface,
simply press Superkey on your phone. For more information on the Superkey menus, see
Appendix A — Superkey Menu Interface on page 42. For menu selection information, see
Menu Item Selection on page 8.
The Web Configuration Tool
In addition to your phone, you can use the Web Configuration Tool to make calls, and to
personalize and modify your phone’s settings. As well, your Administrator can use the tool to
perform administrative tasks. The Web Configuration Tool is accessible from any Personal
Computer (PC) connected to the Internet and running a web browser that is either
• Netscape Navigator 4.8 or later.
• Internet Explorer 4 or later.
• Any other equivalent browser.
Note: If your network is protected by a firewall, you may not be able to access your phone
using the Web Configuration Tool from outside the firewall.
There are two login access accounts for the tool: an administrator account and a user
account. The account used to log in determines the type of web configuration pages
accessed. For instructions on how to access the Web Configuration Tool, see Accessing the
Web Configuration Tool on page 8. For password information, see Passwords on page 9. For

5215 and 5220 IP Phone SIP User and Administrator Guide
Web Configuration Tool Passwords
As learned in Accessing Your Phone’s Features on page 7, you can use a web browser
called the Web Configuration Tool to program and modify features on your phone. When first
accessing the Web Configuration Tool, default user names and passwords for the
Administrator and the user are required. It is recommended that you change these passwords
as soon as possible to prevent unauthorized changes to your settings.
CAUTION: Do not modify any settings that may affect the transmission of voice or tones
(such as DTMF) to the local telephone network through your Service Provider, except at
the express instruction of your Service Provider. An example of such a modification would
be to change the CODEC type. Failure to heed this cautionary note may render your phone
non-compliant to local regulations.

Default Password
(5220 IP Phone)
Call Encryption Indicator
The 5215 and 5220 IP Phones automatically provide Secure Real-time Transport Protocol
(SRTP) voice encryption when connected to a phone that also supports SRTP. A “secured
call” icon (closed padlock) appears on the display for encrypted calls, and for conference
calls in which all connected parties support SRTP. An “unsecured call” icon (open padlock)
appears on the display when the call connection is not secured (the connected party (or
parties) does not support SRTP encryption). If SRTP is disabled, an icon will not appear.
For an icon to appear, SRTP must be enabled. To enable or disable SRTP, your
Administrator must access the Protocols page of the Web Configuration Tool (see The Web
Configuration Tool on page 7).
Note: A “secured call” icon or an “unsecured call” icon appears only when you have a voice
connection. For example, an icon will appear if you are speaking to a party; an icon
will not appear if you receive a busy signal.
Tips for Your Comfort and Safety
Don’t Cradle the Handset
Prolonged use of the handset can lead to neck, shoulder or back discomfort, especially if you
cradle the handset between your ear and shoulder. If you use your phone often, you may find
it more comfortable to use a headset.
- 10 -
Getting Started
Protect your Hearing
The 5215 and 5220 IP Phones have a control for adjusting the volume of the handset
receiver or headset (see Customizing Your Phone on page 12). Because continuous
exposure to loud sounds can contribute to hearing loss, keep the volume at a moderate level.
Adjust the Viewing Angle of Your Phone
To tilt your phone for better viewing of the keys:
1. Press the release tabs on the sides of the stand.
2. Hinge the two front hooks and snap the two back hooks of the stand into either the upper
or lower notches on the back of the phone.
