If a machine name or IP address is used alone as a path element, then the following path is

substituted:

tftp://<name>/#M.cfg;tftp://<name>/#S.cfg

where <name> is the IP address or DNS name in the path.

Example:

For an Avaya 1010/1020 system with a MAC address of 00:13:FA:00:12:33 and an IP

address of 10.10.22.77, the path:

http://example/configs/fishtank.cfg;example;ftp://example/#I.cfg

resolves to search for a configuration file at the following locations:

1. http://example/configs/fishtank.cfg

2. tftp://example/00_13_fa_00_12_33.cfg

3. tftp://example/passport.cfg

4. ftp://example/10.10.22.77.cfg

Note: The MAC address resolves to a hexadecimal number with lower case letters. In the

previous example, the MAC address 00:13:FA:00:12:33 is replaced with

00_13_fa_00_12_33. If you specify a path that uses the #M escape, ensure that the

file name of the configuration file contains lower case letters.

The first file found is used. If the checksum of the file is different from the last configuration

file loaded into the system, then the new file is used.

Note: Setting preferences that result in a system reboot, for example port ranges or SIP

preferences, may cause the system to reboot once the configuration file is loaded

into the system. Because the checksum for the configuration file in this case is the

same, the file is not loaded again. The actual configuration changes are applied

when the system is fully booted. This may cause previous configuration preferences

to appear in the user interface, for example a previous system name, before the

configuration takes effect.

Specifying the Hostname and Domain Name Service (DNS) Servers

You can enter the hostname of the system and the IP addresses to configure DNS servers.

You can also enter the domain names to search when resolving hostnames. Domain Name

System (DNS) translates names of network nodes into addresses; specify this preference to

use DNS to resolve the hostnames of devices to IP addresses.
