Configuration Files
A system administrator can enter specific parameters into the configuration files to configure the BluStar 8000i. By
default on startup, the BluStar 8000i downloads its configuration files from the configuration server you have set. If the
username and password from the login screen is correct, the BluStar 8000i will download its configuration files from the
server. The BluStar 8000i supports TFTP, FTP, HTTP, and HTTPS configuration servers.
The configuration files consist of the following files:
•
aastra.cf
g
- Contains configuration information that applies to all BluStars and/or all 9000i and 6700i series IP SIP
phone devices
•
<model>.cfg
(e.g. 8000i.cfg) - Contains model specific information
•
<mac>.cfg
(e.g. 00085D112233.cfg) - Contains configuration information specific to a BluStar device
•
<
user>.cfg
(e.g. jdoe.cfg) - Contains the user’s settings, including call logs and favorites
In the app menu on the BluStar 8000i UI, users and administrators can view configuration information through the
sta-
tus
app. Users can click on either
Terminal Configuration
to view configuration information in the aastra.cfg,
<model>.cfg, and <mac>.cfg files, or
User Configuration
to view the configuration information in the <user>.cfg file.
