Configuration Server
Configuration Server Protocol
You can download new versions of software and configuration files from the configuration server to the BluStar 8000i
using any of the following types of protocols:
•
TFTP
•
FTP
•
HTTP
•
HTTPS
For each protocol, you can specify the path for which the configuration files are located on the server.
For HTTP and HTTPS you can also specify the port number to use for downloading the BluStar 8000i configuration files.
For FTP you can configure a username and password that are authenticated by the FTP server.
When loading the <user>.cfg and csv files, FTP uses the username and password from the FTP URL in the configuration
file. If a password is not provided, it tries anonymous access.
Configuration Server Settings
The configuration server stores the configuration files and the software to perform software upgrades to the BluStar 8000i.
A system administrator can configure the parameters listed in the table below for the configuration server set for loading
the aastra.cfg, <model>.cfg, and <mac>.cfg files. For loading the <user>.cfg file, the “
user config url
” parameter is used.
Note:
The configuration server can be configured from configuration files (see
), and from the BluStar 8000i UI (see
).
