Using Configuration Files
This chapter describes the configuration options available when using configuration
file transfers to setup the MBU 400 system. By customizing configuration files you
can configure all parameters accessed through the MBU handset menus and the
Aastra Web UI, as well as some advanced features such as PIN code security
activation for handset menus.
Note:
When the gateway is reset, it attempts to reload a configuration file. Any
settings made on the phone or through the web user interface are overwritten when a
configuration file is loaded.
Naming Configuration Files
Configuration files can be created or edited using a text editing tool such as Notepad.
Be aware that some text editing programs may leave hidden characters in the text, and
cause problems in the configuration files.
Valid configuration files are named following the MAC address of the MBU. The
Aastra MBU 400 MAC address is shown on the back label of the MBU base unit, and
can be determined through the status display on each registered handset through the +
(volume up) side button.
<mac_address>.cfg
Example: The Aastra MBU 400 with the MAC address 00-08-7b-07-48-33 (from the
handset status display) or 00087b074833 (from the box) requires a configuration file
named 00087b074833.cfg.
Viewing the Active Configuration File
The complete configuration file can be viewed through the Aastra Web UI for the
MBU 400, provided the default web menu settings have not been changed. To
determine the IP address of your MBU 400 see
