TR-069 Support
The IP Phones support the Technical Report (TR)-069 Protocol. This Protocol is a bi-directional HTTP based protocol that
provides the communication between Customer-Premises Equipment (CPE) (like the IP Phones) and Auto Configuration
Servers (ACS) over DSL/broadband connections. It includes both a safe auto configuration and the control of other CPE
management functions within an integrated framework.
Service providers can, through TR-069, use one common platform to manage (through the internet) all of their customer
premise devices, regardless of the device or manufacturer. If TR-069 is enabled on the phones, when the remote ACS
boots the phones, they contact the ACS and establish the configuration automatically.
In addition to configuring the phone with TR-069, you can also do the following:
• Reboot the phone
• Reset to factory defaults
• Update the firmware of the device
• Backup/restore configuration
• Upload the log file
Reference
For more information about TR-069, see the TR-069 Configuration Guide.
MAC Address/Line Number in REGISTER Messages
The IP phones can send the MAC address and line number in the REGISTER packets making it easier for the call server
when a user configures the phones via the Mitel Web UI or the IP Phone UI. The following two configurable headers send
this information to the call server:
Aastra-Mac: <mac address>
Aastra-Line: <line number>
The MAC address is sent in uppercase hex numbers, for example, 00085D03C792. The line number is a number between
1 and 9.
The following parameters allow you to enable/disable the sending of MAC address and line number to the call server:
• sip send mac
• sip send line
These parameters are disabled by default. The parameters are configurable via the configuration files or the Mitel Web
UI.

Configuration Files
For specific parameters you can set in the configuration files for enabling/disabling MAC address and line number, see Appendix A, the section,
Advanced Operational Parameters on pageA-220.
