Avaya 4610SW IP Phone: Enable softkey mode

[Habibie]

Does anyone here know how do I enable the softkey mode on an Avaya 4610SW IP Phone during boot? The problem I am facing is after my 4610SW IP Phone finished booting, it shows Ext. #=OK New= prompt for a user to enter an extension number and then password for the extension where the password is in an alphanumeric string.

It needs to be just numeric, it's a login code when connecting to an IP Office

That is not good because some VoSPs put a restriction to using an alphanumeric password only. I am hoping that is a way to enter an alphanumeric password.

OTOH, I include the following in my 46xxsettings.txt file and the 4610SW IP Phone still prompts a user to enter the Ext. and password.

[tt]SET SIP_USERNAME1 1000
SET SIP_PASSWORD1 mypassword
SET SIP_LINE1 1000
SET SIP_LINE_CALLID1 "1000"[/tt]
​

Looks like I had done something wrong here.

I think you may be in the wrong forum.... do you actually have an IP Office? Or just an Avaya system? 46xx handsets don't run SIP on an IP Office

You probably are right.

I only have two units of stand-alone Avaya 4610SW IP Phones that I would like them to register to my FreeSWITCH PBX system as well as some SIP VoSPs.

Then you are asking in the wrong place really

I apologize for that. And, thank you for trying to help.
