Software Maintenance
The Avaya 3641/3645 Wireless IP Telephones use proprietary software programs
maintained by Avaya. The software versions that are running on the Wireless IP
Telephones may be displayed by selecting the
Firmware Version
option on the admin
menu. Firmware Version is also an option on the Config menu.
Avaya or its authorized dealer will provide information about software updates and how to
obtain the software (for example, downloading from a web site).
After software updates are obtained they must be transferred to the appropriate TFTP
server located on the LAN to update the code used by the Wireless IP Telephone.
The handset allows over-the-air transfer of software updates from the designated TFTP
server to the handsets. The download function in the Wireless IP Telephone checks its
software version every time the handset is powered on, when the TFTP server is active. If
there is a different version available, the handset immediately begins to download the
update.
