Automatic phone provisioning
Preliminary conditions
Automatic procedures require the use of several servers:
- The "plug and play" method requires DHCP and TFTP servers.
- The semi-automatic method requires DHCP and FTP, or only FTP or TFTP servers.
You also should have the necessary files for the configuration and firmware upgrade. See the next
paragraph "Description of the files" for further information on these files.
To obtain the latest file update, ask your call agent/gatekeeper vendor, or e-mail your request to
Swissvoice at the following address:
.
Don’t forget to indicate the protocol (MGCP, MGCP+RFC3149, H323, SIP), the file server you intend
to use (FTP or TFTP) and the optional code (G729 or G723) for the IP10S phone.
Description of the files
Phone configuration and firmware upgrades require several files.
Information file
: ".inf" format. Default file name is: swupdate_
name of the phone
.inf.
It contains the firmware (boot and application) file and configuration file names and locations. The file
is divided into several sections. Each section is optional and uses an XML type format.
File example:
<BOOT version=v00app server=
tftp
>
bootromSoftware.ld.000
bootromSoftware.ld.001
</BOOT>
<APPLICATION version=v00app server=
tftp
>
applicationSoftware.ld.000
applicationSoftware.ld.001
applicationSoftware.ld.002
applicationSoftware.ld.003
</APPLICATION>
<CONFIG server=
ftp
>
configip10.cfg
</CONFIG>
By default, the information file is located in TFTP and the configuration file in FTP. If you want to
attribute files differently in your servers, you should change the server setting option, which is given in
red in the above example, in the information file.
