Using The AastraLink Recovery Mode UI
This section describes how you use the AastraLink Recover Mode Web UI to
reload or repair system software or firmware, and perform more advanced tasks.
To do so, you must:
First, obtain the IP address of the AastraLink Pro 160 so you can
communicate with the device.
Second, use the Recovery Mode UI to reprogram or repair the CompactFlash
card, or Onboard flash, as necessary.
Obtaining the IP Address of Your AastraLink Pro 160
If you do not know the IP address of your AastraLink Pro 160, you can obtain the
IP address of the AastraLink device using one of the methods described in this
section.
For DHCP Networks
When operating in recovery mode, the AastraLink Pro 160 uses DHCP to attempt
to obtain an IP address on the LAN network. If DHCP was previously being used
for normal operation, and the DHCP server on the network supports MAC address
caching, then the AastraLink Pro 160 uses same IP address in recovery mode as in
normal operation.
You can use an Aastra IP phone to find the IP address of the AastraLink Pro 160,
as described in the following procedure.
