To help you accurately deliver configuration settings and management capabilities where they are needed in
your organization, SIPxNano distinguishes between the settings and management that:
•
Apply to the operation of a specific device and its ability to function in your network
•
A particular end user prefers, or is permitted to have, when using the device
Examples of device-level configuration settings include:
•
The location of network servers and other entities, including a time server, SNMP stations, and SIP servers
•
Activation of debugging tools, such as console output or Telnet access
•
The location of hosts and ports for the device to use when receiving, or sending, data through a firewall
When you send profiles to a device, SIPxNano delivers settings only to the SIP phone associated with that
device.
