Installation
DHCP Server Setup
The DHCP server must return the “server-name” option pointing to the TFTP config server.
This is option is the “sname” field referenced in IETF RFC 2131.
TFTP Server Setup
For every phone, “ipdSIPDefault.cnf” in the TFTP server’s root directory is loaded.
Additionally, the auto-config system supports customized configurations for each phone.
For each phone, the config file conforming to the following format is loaded:
ipdSIP<MAC address>.cnf
where <MAC address> is the full twelve hex digit (all uppercase) representation of the
phone’s MAC address. For example, “ipdSIP00041C000012.cnf” is used for the phone
with MAC address, 00:04:1c:00:00:12. Individually customized configuration files must
reside in a directory relative to the TFTP server’s root directory and specified by the
parameter “tftp_cfg_dir” which has a default of “SipTone/config”. This is configurable
through ipdSIPDefault.cnf.
NOTE: For case sensitive OSs, e.g., Linux, Solaris, filename case matters.
Telephone Setup
In the Advanced page of the telephone’s web interface, select “Profile-C” for the “Auto-
config profile” setting.
