2.4.1 Configuration File Programming Methods
There are 2 methods to program configuration files:
•
Plain text provisioning: a provisioning method using plain text configuration files.
•
XML provisioning: a provisioning method using XML formatted configuration files.
The examples in 2.4.2 Pre-provisioning and 2.4.3 Provisioning use the plain text provisioning method. For
details about XML provisioning, see 2.4.4 XML Provisioning .
2.4.2 Pre-provisioning
2.4.2.1 What is Pre-provisioning?
Pre-provisioning can aid the installation process by allowing phone system dealers to configure beforehand
the minimum settings required to operate the unit.
For example, phone system dealers can store on the TFTP server a configuration file that contains only the
URL of a server where another configuration file is stored. This second configuration file contains settings
configured specifically for the usage environment of the user. The user will be able to start using the unit by
just connecting it to the network.
To perform pre-provisioning, you must set the IP address of a TFTP server to the DHCP server option 66 so
that the unit can acquire the TFTP server address. When the unit starts up and no configuration has been
applied, it will automatically acquire the address of the TFTP server and download the configuration file.
To restore settings configured by pre-provisioning, return the unit to its factory default state by performing a
reset. You can reperform pre-provisioning after resetting the unit.
For details about resetting the unit, see
Section 9 Resetting the Unit .
2.4.2.2 Server for Pre-provisioning
To perform pre-provisioning, the unit needs to acquire the TFTP server address from option 66 on a DHCP
server. Therefore, pre-provisioning cannot be performed if you use static IP addressing on your network. If you
use static IP addressing and want to perform pre-provisioning, construct a small, separate network and connect
a DHCP and TFTP server to that network.
The DHCP server and TFTP server play important roles in performing pre-provisioning. This section explains
their purposes, uses, and brief descriptions.
Server Purpose Description
DHCP server Used to provide the address
of a TFTP server, set in option
66 of the DHCP server. In option 66 of the DHCP server, specify the IP
address or FQDN (Fully Qualified Domain Name) of
the TFTP server.
For details, refer to the documentation for your
DHCP server.
Note
•
The maximum length of FQDN text is 64
bytes.
TFTP server Used to store configuration
files, and is set as the access
point for downloading them
automatically. The unit will download the configuration file
"KX-UT670.cfg" stored in the root directory of the
TFTP server.
