J100 Firmware Upgrade

1. Download: Avaya J100 SIP Release 4.0.9.0 from Avaya, and unzip.

   "J100 SIP 4.0.9.0 software is supported on the Avaya J129, J139, J159, J169, J179 and J189 IP Phones used with Avaya Aura®, Avaya IP Office™, and select OpenSIP platforms. Avaya recommends that all customers using Avaya J100 Series SIP software upgrade to this version at their earliest convenience."

2. In IP Office Manager, goto: File ➤ Advanced ➤ Embedded File Management

3. Navigate to: System SD ➤ SYSTEM ➤ PRIMARY

4. (Optional) Backup the current FW_ .bin files, and delete them from the IP Office.

5. Copy the new FW_xxxxxxxxxxx.bin files and J100Supgrade.txt file to the IP Office SD card, eg:

   Alternatively, copy the files directly to the SD card with a USB card reader,
   the file path is: IPO MU-LAW ➤ System ➤ primary

Notes:

If the IP Office system is NOT the file server, copy files to the servers root directory!

The J100Supgrade.txt file instructs the phone what software version it should be running.
If different to the current version, the phone downloads the indicated FW file and installs it.

The last line of J100Supgrade.txt tells the phone to request 46xxsettings.txt, which may in turn request additional files such as languages (Mlf_), or certificates (.sig256). Replace these additional files with newer versions from the same release as required.

To check the configuration file contents, eg, to establish if additional files are referenced in 46xxsettings.txt, open the following URLs in a web browser:

1. Firmware Settings:	http://<ip_address>/J100Supgrade.txt
2. Configuration Settings:	http://<ip_address>/46xxsettings.txt
3. Special Settings:	http://<ip_address>/46xxspecials.txt

IP Office configuration files are auto-generated if they don't exist. It's recommended to use the auto-generated whenever possible, though here we provide J100Supgrade.txt to force an upgrade. The 46xxspecials.txt file is optional, used for custom phone settings such as backgrounds.
