Recovering Aastra RP phones using Web Recovery Mode
Many thanks go to MuKul Nayyar at Wesbell for the following article.
How to recover the phones in web recovery mode:
- Phones with web recovery display an IP address on the LCD.
- Connect to that IP address using a web browser like IE or Firefox.
- Grab the firmware file of the phone you want to put on the phone. For example for 6753i RP it would be a file with “6753irp.st” name.
- If you have a TFTP server with your network you could use that.
Otherwise you could download PumpKin from internet (freeware). See below about how to use PumpKin. - Place the phone’s firmware file in your TFTP’s root path.
- On the web recovery page of the phone, specify the “server IP” as the TFTP server IP address, the firmware file name as the name of firmware you want to upload to the phone (i.e. 6753irp.st) and choose the protocol as TFTP.
- Upload the firmware file and the phone should come back on.
A Quick reference for using PumpKIN TFTP server
TFTP Server Set-up
There are a number of TFTP servers available. PumpKIN is one of such TFTP servers. Use the keywords “pumpkin TFTP server” on Google and you should get the web site where you can download the software
from. Installing PumpKIN is straightforward. To configure the directory from where you would be serving the files, click on the Options button on PumpKIN’s main window as shown in the following figure.
PumpKIN Options
It is important to select the “Give all files” radio button under the “Read Request Behavior” category. This makes the files to be served without any manual intervention when requested.
If you want to prevent users from writing files to the directory select the “Deny all requests” in the “Write Request Behavior” category. Click the OK button after you have entered all the required information. All the firmware files should be in the file system root directory. Currently we do not support downloads from files present in sub-directories. Consult PumpKIN’s documentation if you need more information on how to set-up the TFTP server.

This design is steller! You clearly know how to keep a reader amused. Between your wit and your videos, I was almost moved to start my own weblog (effectively, almost…HaHa!) Amazing job. I truly enjoyed what you had to say, and far more than that, how you presented it. Too cool!
The next time I learn a blog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as much as this one. I mean, I know it was my choice to read, but I really thought youd have something fascinating to say. All I hear is a bunch of whining about one thing that you might fix in case you werent too busy in search of attention.
A topic close to my heart many thanks, i have been thinking about about this topic for some time.
