Automatic remote software updates
Note:
Your system administrator must enable Remote check for update for this feature to work.
Your IP Deskphone may be configured to perform automatic software updates. If this feature
is configured, the IP Deskphone displays when a software update is scheduled to occur, and
Yes and No context-sensitive soft keys are displayed. If the IP Deskphone is idle and no key
is pressed, the software update begins in one minute.
If you press Yes, the software download begins.
If you are using your IP Deskphone (this includes on hold, on a conference call, or when your
IP Deskphone is ringing) and you press No, the call is not disconnected and the software
update does not occur. The IP Deskphone displays the software download prompt again in
three minutes a total of three times.
If, after the third notification, you press No or no key is pressed, the software update does not
occur. Your IP Deskphone attempts the software download process again in two hours.
Note:
If you allow the update to proceed and the server is down, the IP Deskphone does not ask
for updates again.
Busy lamp field
The Busy Lamp Field (BLF) is an alternate presence-monitoring mechanism for the IP
Deskphone that allows presence functionality on proxies that support BLF.
BLF is an icon state for a corresponding Speed Dial key on an IP Deskphone; the icon state
tells you if another extension connected to the same SIP server is busy. You do not enable or
disable this feature; BLF is configured by your system administrator. If enabled, the IP
Deskphone subscribes to the proxy and receives the presence state list for all the users it is
configured to watch. Call states and the corresponding presence icons are shown in the
following table:
