Avaya 4600 Manual Do Utilizador

The files necessary to operate the 4600 Series IP Telephones are available on the Avaya Web 
site at: 

Two files on the file server are essential. Other files are needed when the Avaya IP Telephones 
need an upgrade. The essential files are:

Note:

The 4630 Telephones have a different upgrade process than the other 
telephones. This is because the 4630 touch screen operation is significantly more 
complex than any of the other Avaya IP Telephones. There are some common 
elements between the 4630 and other IP telephones. Any differences are 
highlighted as appropriate in this section.

●

An upgrade script file, which tells the IP telephone whether the phone needs to upgrade 
software. The Avaya IP Telephones attempt to read this file whenever they reset. The 
upgrade script file is also used to point to the settings file. There are separate upgrade 
script files for the 4630 Telephones.

●

The settings file contains the option settings that enable many of the options you will need 
to customize the Avaya IP Telephones for your enterprise. You can use one settings file for 
all your Avaya IP Telephones.

In addition to the upgrade script and settings files you need the latest binary code used in the 
Avaya IP Telephones.

The upgrade script file and settings file are available from the Avaya Web site. The files allow 
you to upgrade to new software releases and new functionality without having to replace IP 
telephones. These two files, plus other useful information such as a ReadMe file, information 
about infrared capabilities, and a settings file template, are contained in a self-extracting 
executable file you download to your file server. Application files for all current 4600 Series IP 
Telephones except the 4630/4630SW, and an upgrade script file, are bundled together in that 
self-extracting executable file. The self-extracting executable file comes in both zipped and 
unzipped format. See 

for more information. 

The Avaya-provided upgrade script files, and the binaries included in the zip files, upgrade the 
Avaya IP Telephones. You should not need to modify them. It is essential that all the binary files 
be together on the file server. When downloading a new release onto a file server with an 
existing release already on it, we recommend that you:

●

Stop the file server.

●

Back up all the current file server directories as applicable.

●

Copy your 46xxsettings.txt file to a backup location.

●

Remove all the files in the download directory. This ensures that you do not have an 
inappropriate binary or configuration file on the server.
