AastraLink FAQs
As administrator, you have the option to control new phone registration on your 
network. That is, if you wish, you can use the Web UI to restrict new phones from 
registering. 
What is the Difference Between the Administrator Phone and User 
Phones?
The first IP phone you register with the AastraLink Pro 160 becomes the 
administrator phone. The administrator can configure and manage the AastraLink 
Pro 160, as well as configure all Aastra IP phones and user profiles on your 
network. 
Once you register an administrator phone with the AastraLink, all other IP phones 
are registered as user phones. If you wish, you can assign administrator privileges 
to a user phone (s) using the Web UI. 
Do I Ever Need to Re-Register IP Phones?
If an IP phone has been previously registered with the AastraLink Pro 160, it 
maintains the configuration information (user name/password/extension) even if it 
is removed, and then reinstalled, on the network. 
Even if you set the IP phone back to its factory default settings, then all 
AastraLink registration information is erased locally from the phone; however 
when you re-connect the IP phone to the network, the IP phone re-discovers and 
re-registers with the AastraLink Pro 160 device.
Can I Access My IP Phone Network From a Remote Office?
Yes! The AastraLink provides remote office support. See 
 for instructions on installing 
and registering remote user IP phones.
