We are using Mitel 3300 ICP. Instead of using Mitel 5212 IP phone, can I use any IP phone software from my Laptop / Android Phone.
Thanking you in anticipation.

The later versions of software on Mitel 3300 use one and the same license for an IP phone or SIP phone. If you are on a load that this you can setup SIP softphones or any SIP phone to communicate.

Thanks for your prompt reply.
Our software version is 7.1.5 13. This version is enough or I have to upgrade to latest version? If I have to upgrade then pls brief me about upgrade to latest version.
Thanks.

Add a new IP telephone in the 3300. Assign it a number, etc. Under the device type choose "Generic SIP Phone". Once the device has been added to the 3300, go to the Access and Authentication tab for the device and enter a User PIN that will be used for authentication.
In X-lite go to your SIP Account settings and add a new account. Include the following:
Username: Extension of SIP device in 3300
Password: User PIN of SIP device in 3300
Domain: IP address of 3300
That should at least get you connected.

ICP 7.1.5.13 is extremely old, you cannot just switch between Mitel and SIP devices at this software level if I recall correctly. You will need to upgrade to roughly current software (MCD 7, which is 12.x.x.x release).
This will require a Mitel vendor, as Software Assurance and AMC changes to occur, as well as software, and possibly hardware depending on your configuration and platform.

You can still buy SIP licences for that level of software if required.
