Web Interface SIP Settings Use the SIP Settings page to configure settings related to SIP sessions, as shown in the illustration below. After changing any of these settings, the phone must be restarted for the changes to take effect. SIP Settings Use SIP session timers Specify the preference for using SIP session keep-alive timers.
Web Interface SIP Settings Allow strict routing By default, proxies specified on the SIP Registration page will be configured as loose-routing proxies. The loose-routing designation (“;lr”) will be automatically appended to each proxy address when the proxy is added to the SIP Route header. Older proxies may be strict-routing (see IETF RFC 2543), not supporting loose routing (see IETF RFC 3261). Enable this option if you are using strict-routing proxies.
Web Interface Transport Use the Web Interface’s Transport page to manage transport and Network Address Translation (NAT) settings, and to enable or disable Quality of Service (QoS). The illustration below shows the Transport page. After changing any of these settings, the phone must be restarted for the changes to take effect. 41-001516-00 REV00 – 06.
Web Interface Transport Settings Use SRTP Use this setting to control Secure Real-time Transport Protocol (SRTP) usage. The available options are as follows: • Disabled – Do not use SRTP; always use RTP. This is the default setting. • Optional – Use the optional disposition for SRTP in SDP. If the remote end supports SRTP, then use SRTP; otherwise, use RTP. • Mandatory – Force use of SRTP. If the remote end does not support SRTP, the call does not connect.
Web Interface QoS Enable QoS Select this option to enable QoS (Quality of Service) tagging for SIP and media. For layer 3, at the Internet layer, the DiffServ (Differentiated Services) precedence level is Class 3. The Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) in the IP header is set to 24 (0x18). For layer 2, IEEE 802.1p tagging is supported. This option is unchecked by default.
Web Interface Call Settings From the Call Settings page you can choose to automatically answer calls, set the maximum call duration, and enable or disable the S850i Handset/Dialer’s message waiting indicator. The figure below shows the Call Settings page. After changing any of these settings, the phone must be restarted for the changes to take effect. Call Settings Auto-answer This option allows to automatically answer calls even if not physically at the location where the phone is located.
Web Interface Advanced Audio Settings All Mic Mute If “All Mic Mute” is On, all active Microphones are affected when a mute button is pressed. If one or more active Microphones are outside the Charger Tray, pressing the mute button will change the mute status on all Microphones outside of the Charger Tray. Microphones in the Charger Tray will not be affected and will stay muted at all times.
Web Interface Access Control Recent Call Enabled Use the Recent Call Enabled option to enable or disable the Recent Calls list on the S850i Handset/Dialer. The default setting is On. Web Access Enabled Use the Web Access Enabled option to enable or disable the S850i Web Interface. If access is enabled, users can browse to the S850i using a web browser. Even if enabled, the Web Interface is password protected for all pages. It is restricted to Administrator use. If disabled, any web-access is rejected.
Web Interface To export S850i configuration settings, click the Export button. A File Download window will appear prompting you to open or save the file as shown below. Click the “Save” button to save the file to the desired location. To import a configuration file, open a web session and login to the target phone to be configured, and select the Administrator > Import/Export page.
Web Interface The support staff may also ask you to select the option to Enable Verbose SIP Logging. Selecting this option will cause the system to log more of the internal operations and network traffic useful for isolating problems. However, the additional logging can degrade performance. Note: Use this setting only when instructed by Aastra support staff, and uncheck this option after you have retrieved the system log package.
Power On/Off the System Components During normal use and operation of the S850i Wireless Conference Phon System, there is no need to turn off any part of the system. However, if the system is going to be stored without the Charger Tray powered on, then each component should be powered off until further use. Handset/Dialer On/Off To power off the S850i Handset/Dialer, hold down the red "end call" soft key until the device asks whether you want to shut it down. Confirm this by pressing "Yes".
Battery Exchange The rechargeable batteries in the different S850i components can all be exchanged. Please note that only Aastra approved batteries should be used for the replacement. The following sections explain how to change the batteries in the different components. We recommend charging any component for eight hours after exchanging the battery.
Battery Exchange Handset/Dialer The battery in the Handset/Dialer can be exchanged after the Handset/Dialer’s back was opened. The back of the Handset/Dialer opens if pressure is applied, pushing it back away from the Charger Tray port and lift it, as shown in the picture. Take the current battery out of the Handset/Dialer as shown, and replace it with the new battery. Please ensure that the connectors on the battery are lined up with the connectors inside the Handset/Dialer.
