Aastra Recovery mode "Application not found. Recovery web"

I still have a few Aastra 480i SIP phones working, I had the strange error on the screen

"Application not found. To restore go to recovery web page. Recovery web page at: 192.168.1.64"


My first error was log into the phone using that IP and to try to upload the last firmware, but what was needed was more rudimentary.

What you need is:
1. A crossover cable [You can google it]

2. TFTP server running in your PC/MAC [I found pumpKIN from Klever, it has funny notify sounds and it's available for Windows and MAC systems. Also you can use the most popular Solarwinds]
    http://kin.klever.net/pumpkin#.Vt8udubBViQ

3. Firmware [in my case the last 480i.st I could get] At the bottom of this article you can download .st files that hopefully will help.

Ok, First of all, I guess the procedure it's pretty much the same for every model, but I can't tell for sure what cause the problem, so use it under your own risk.

This is what I did:

A. Configure your network card with a static IP, in the same range your phone is showing, due my Aastra showed 192.168.1.64 I set my ethernet card as 192.168.1.70 (255.255.255.0 or /24)

B. Download and configure your TFTP server and bind it to your static IP.


C. Put the .st file in the appropiate folder (C:\Program Files\Tftpd64)

D. Plug the crossover cable one edge to the card with the static IP and the other to the Aastra phone

E. From any web brower go to the address the Aastra screen shows. You'll be prompted to fill two boxes,
    TFPTP server (in my case 192.168.1.70) and firmware file name (in my case 480i.st)



    Hit the download firmware button.
    Phone screen, Web page


   and also tftp program will notify you the download progress


F. Once the download it's done phone will reboot, in that time you can unplug the crossover cable and plug the phone to the switch. Probably the phone will keep the last configuration so you better take a look on the config to avoid bad surprises.

If you think my knowledge is useful please donate

Enable MP3 codec on Windows 10 (Fraunhofer IIS MPEG Layer-3 Codec / l3codecp.acm)

Imagen
Perhaps you have been in the need of using MP3 codec (Fraunhofer IIS MPEG Layer-3 Codec) on a new windows version, I was in that situation last week. I had to install audio software actually running on Windows XP on a new Windows 10 computer. That Audio software uses all the available codecs on the system, so once I realized that just by having windows media player is not enough like in XP, I reasearched but everything point to install klite codec pack, LAME MP3 or similar. That didn't work for me, codec pack software specially klite are good, I like it, but this software is designed to work only (not sure why) with Fraunhofer IIS MPEG Layer-3 Codec. I was lucky to find Komeil Bahmanpour's blog (a wise dude), so I learned that l3codecp.acm file (The codec) is available in all Windows versions (tipically on Windows\system32), but is not enabled for some legal issue, but it can be unleashed by dealing with windows registry entries. For x64 systems just do this on windows re...

Audio streaming from Ubuntu / darkice / pulseaudio to remote icecast server

Imagen
It's a hard dutty to migrate from the comfortable Windows environment to Linux, but when the computer got to old, Linux will always be the answer. I had to find how to re-use the old windows computers to save money and keep the audio streaming to a remote icecast server (I'm not fan of the multi-purpose equipment so my icecast server is running on another machine), myfirst guess, was some linux distribution teamviewer capable and internet browser with no limitations to browse. After I few minutes I decided to install Ubuntu 14 x64, my computer is kind of old(Intel core duo, 2G ram and 80GB hard drive), so probably the latest version could be a problem. This is the process I followed: A. Ubuntu 14 04 LTS x 64. It's way too easy (specially if not sure about the performance after installation) to install from USB (I used Universal USB installer from www.pendrivelinux.com ). In case this particular distribution release was a problem I could try another one. B. So import...

pfsense cannot define table Cannot allocate memory or DHCP fail

Imagen
It happened to me at the end of April and at the beginning of May in different pfsense boxes, and it took me by surprise that it was a common error during those weeks. Pfsense??? How??? I never had problems with it!!!! Let me tell you about the errors I saw on my boxes: A. Users reported that "they were not able to surf the web", so by checking those workstations I noticed the missed their IP address. Normally they get 192.168.1.x, but all they got 169.254 . x.x ... and it was not for a damaged cable or port, nor a damaged switch as I was guessing, it was the DHCP service having problems. B. Then, in the upper right corner on pfsense admin console I saw something like this There were error(s) loading the rules: /tmp/rules.debug:19: cannot define table bogonsv6: Cannot allocate memory - The line in question reads [19]: table persist file /etc/bogonsv6] In my case I got a 26 (among others) instead of 19, but the error was the same. So I found the problem and the 2 s...
