Configuration File-based Management
This section describes the Configuration file and the parameters that you can set in the
Configuration file.
4.1
Overview
The Configuration file can be loaded to the phone using the automatic provisioning mechanism,
or manually from your local PC using the Web interface (refer to Section
3.10
). The subsections
below describe the Configuration file syntax and linking additional Configuration files to a
Configuration file.
4.1.1
File Syntax
The Configuration file can be created using a standard ASCII, text-based program such as
Notepad. The Configuration file is a *.cfg file with the file name being the phone’s MAC address:
<phone’s MAC address>.cfg
.
The syntax of the Configuration file is as follows:
<parameter name>=<value>
Ensure that the Configuration file adheres to the following guidelines:
No spaces on either side of the equals (=) sign.
Each parameter must be on a new line.
Below is an example of part of a Configuration file:
system/type=320HD
voip/line/0/enabled=1
voip/line/0/id=1234
voip/line/0/description=320HD
voip/line/0/auth_name=1234
voip/line/0/auth_password=4321
4.1.2
Linking Additional Files using “Include”
The Configuration file allows you to include links (URL and/or file name) to other Configuration
files that provide additional parameter settings. This is especially useful in deployments with
multiple phones, where the phones share common configuration but where each phone has some
unique settings. In such a scenario, a phone’s Configuration file can include unique parameter
settings as well as links to additional Configuration files with settings common to all phones.
Linking additional files is achieved by using the
include
function in the phone’s Configuration file.
For example, the below Configuration file provides links to additional Configuration files (shown in
bolded font):
system/type=320HD
include 320HD_<MAC>_voip.cfg
include vlan_conf.cfg
include network_conf.cfg
include provisioning_conf.cfg
