Locking/Unlocking the Phone
A user or administrator can lock a phone to prevent it from being used or
configured. Once the phone is locked, the user or administrator can enter their
password to unlock the phone.
You can lock/unlock a phone using the configuration files, the IP Phone UI, or the
Aastra Web UI.
You can use any of the following methods to lock/unlock a phone:
• Using the IP Phone UI via the “Phone Lock” option in the Options Menu.
• Using the Aastra Web UI via the path Operation->Phone Lock.
• Using the configuration files to configure a key as “phonelock”, and then
pressing the key to lock/unlock the phone.
• Using the Aastra Web UI to configure a key as “Phone Lock”, and then
pressing the key to lock/unlock the phone.
Note: All of the methods above configure locking/unlocking of the
phone dynamically. Once configured, the feature takes affect
immediately. To unlock the phone, a user or administrator must enter their
password.
