When you set APPSTAT to any valid value other than 1, the deskphone does not accept any
Contact button label changes that might have been made directly on a backup file. Only the
existing labels of the deskphone are used. This restriction prevents circumvention of the APPSTAT
restrictions.
The WML applications are also suppressed by default.
Administering the Avaya menu
The Main menu is a list of sub-applications the user can select from to invoke the corresponding
functionality. A file called
AvayaMenuAdmin.txt
is available with downloads on which you can
specify the menu label, URI, and list order of WML applications on the Avaya menu.
Important:
You must set the system parameter AMADMIN in the
46xxsettings
file for Avaya menu to
work with WML applications.
If WML applications are installed and the system parameter AMADMIN is set in the settings file:
• The WML applications appear in the first-level Avaya menu.
• The first level Avaya menu includes a single entry (Phone Settings) that leads to a screen
containing choices for Options & Settings and Network Information.
• The Phone Settings screen is essentially the current Options and Settings menu, with the
addition of Network Information.
If WML applications are installed and the system parameter WMLHOME is set in the settings file,
the Avaya menu is identical.
If WML applications are not installed, the Avaya menu is the same as the current Options &
Settings menu, with the addition of Network Information, Log Off, and About Avaya IP Deskphone.
Depending on how you have administered WML applications, you can present the alternatives for
sub-applications as follows:
• Set the system parameter AMADMIN to the URL of the
AvayaMenuAdmin.txt
in the
46xxsettings file when you want to display multiple WML applications on the Avaya menu.
• Set the system parameter WMLHOME in the settings file for all except the 9610 when you
want the deskphone to display the Browser instead of individual applications.
• Take no action to administer WML applications.
• The Browser application is listed only if it is properly administered. Administration also
includes a non-null value for WMLHOME.
