33.2.8 MAC Address Automatically Inserted in Configuration File Name
You can configure the file name of the configuration file (ini) in the URL to automatically
include the MAC address of the device. As described in ''File Location for Automatic
Update'' on page 397, the file name is included in the configured URL of the provisioning
server where the file is located.
Including the MAC address in the file name is useful if you want the device to download a
file that is unique to the device. This feature is typically implemented in mass provisioning
of devices where each device downloads a specific configuration file. In such a setup, the
provisioning server stores configuration files per device, where each file includes the MAC
address of a specific device in its file name.
To support this feature, you need to include the case-sensitive string, "<MAC>" anywhere
in the configured file name of the URL, for example:
IniFileURL = 'https://www.company.com/config_<MAC>.ini'
The device automatically replaces the string with its hardware MAC address, resulting in a
file name request that contains the device's MAC address, for example,
config_00908F033512.ini. Therefore, you can configure all the devices with the same URL
and file name.
33.2.9 Automatic Update Configuration Examples
This section provides a few examples on configuring the Automatic Update feature.
33.2.9.1 Automatic Update for Single Device
This simple example describes how to configure the Automatic Update feature for updating
a single device. In this example, the device queries the provisioning server for software,
configuration and Auxiliary files every 24 hours.

To set up Automatic Provisioning for single device (example):
1. Set up an HTTP Web server (e.g., http://www.company.com) and place all the
required configuration files on this server.
2. Configure the device with the IP address of the DNS server for resolving the domain
name (e.g., http://www.company.com) that is used in the URL of the provisioning
server. You configure this in the Interface table:
•
ini File:
[ InterfaceTable ]
FORMAT InterfaceTable_Index =
InterfaceTable_ApplicationTypes,
InterfaceTable_InterfaceMode, InterfaceTable_IPAddress,
InterfaceTable_PrefixLength, InterfaceTable_Gateway,
InterfaceTable_VlanID, InterfaceTable_InterfaceName,
InterfaceTable_PrimaryDNSServerIPAddress,
InterfaceTable_SecondaryDNSServerIPAddress,
InterfaceTable_UnderlyingDevice;
InterfaceTable 0 = 6, 10, 10.15.7.95, 16, 10.15.0.1, 1,
"Voice", 80.179.52.100, 0.0.0.0, "vlan 1";
[ \InterfaceTable ]
3. Configure the device with the following Automatic Update settings:
a. Automatic Update is done every 24 hours (1440 minutes):
♦
ini File:
AutoUpdateFrequency = 1440
b. Automatic Update of software file (.cmp):
♦
