Customizing and Modifying Configuration Files

You can modify configuration files (for example, edit the xml files) and add customized files (for example, custom ring tones, call back tones) to the TFTP directory. You can modify files and add customized files to the TFTP directory in Cisco Unified Communications Operating System Administration, from the TFTP Server File Upload window. Refer to Cisco Unified Communications Operating System Administration Guide for information about how to upload files to the TFTP folder on a Cisco Unified Communications Manager server.

You can obtain a copy of the DistinctiveRinglist.xml and List.xml files from the system using the following admin command-line interface (CLI) “file” commands (for exact syntax, refer to the Command Line Interface Reference Guide for Cisco Unified Communications Solutions):

•admin:file

–file list
