3. Select the configuration source of the configuration download in the Configuration File Server
Source choices.
4. If the configuration file server configuration source is Static , enter the configuration file server static
IP address or domain name in the Configuration File Server Host field.
This is the current address of the PC that hosts the configuration files.
5. If the configuration file server configuration source is Static , enter the configuration file server static
IP port number in the Configuration File Server Port field.
The default port value complies to RFC 1340 on the well-known ports (assigned numbers). This
value applies to a TFTP server. It may be different for other servers. If you are using an HTTP server
to perform the configuration file download, you must change the port value to 80.
6. Proceed to “Setting up the Configuration File Download” on page 40 .
Setting up the Configuration File Download
When performing a configuration file download, you can download two different files:

A generic configuration file that should be used to update a large number of units with the same
configuration.

A specific configuration file that contains the configuration for a single unit, for instance the
telephone numbers of its lines.
When both the generic and specific configuration files are downloaded, settings from the specific configuration
file always override the settings from the generic configuration file. These files must be located in the same
directory.

To setup the configuration file download:
1. In the General section of the Configuration File page , set the transfer protocol to use in the
Configuration File Transfer Protocol field.

Source Description
Static You manually enter the value and it remains the same every time the Mediatrix 4104
restarts. Use the static configuration if you are not using a DHCP server or if you want
to bypass it.
DHCP The value is obtained at start-time by querying a DHCP server and using standard
DHCP fields or options. Using the DHCP configuration assumes that you have properly
set your DHCP server with the relevant information. See
“Chapter 8 - IP Address and
Network Configuration” on page 141 for more details.
