•Server.cfg - File in the format MAC ID_Date_Time_server.cfg that contains configuration information from the aas- tra.cfg, the <model>.cfg, and the <mac>.cfg files. The MAC address, date, and time are specified in the file name to identify the phone sending the information, and the date and time the file was generated and sent to the server. (for example, 00093D435522_2010-02-25_1141am_server.cfg)

•Local.cfg - File in the format MAC ID_Date_Time_local.cfg that contains information of locally modified values made using the Aastra Web UI and/or the IP Phone UI. The MAC address, date, and time are specified in the file name to iden- tify the phone sending the information, and the date and time the file was generated and sent to the server.

(for example, 00043D199345_2010-02-26_1030am_local.cfg)

•Crash.cfg - (only generated if an error or crash occurs on the phone) File in the format MAC ID_Date_Time_crash.cfg that contains information about a current phone error/crash causing a reboot of the phone . The MAC address, date, and time are specified in the file name to identify the phone sending the information, and the date and time the file was generated and sent to the server.

(for example, 00033D000111_2010-02-27_0204pm_crash.cfg)
