Configuration Files

This appendix provides detailed descriptions of certain configuration files used by the SIP application running on the Polycom VVX 1500 D phone.

This appendix contains information on:

	• Master Configuration File (MAC-address.cfg or 000000000000.cfg)
	• Application Configuration File (sip.cfg)
	•	Per-Phone Configuration File (phone1.cfg)
	The application configuration files dictate the behavior of the phone once it is
	running the executable specified in the master configuration file.
	For detailed information—including permitted values, default values, and a
	brief description—on the complete set of configuration parameters available
	to you in the configuration files, refer to the “Configuration Files” appendix of
	the latest SIP Administrator’s Guide.
Caution
	Configuration files should only be modified by a knowledgeable system
	administrator. Applying incorrect parameters may render the phone unusable. The
	configuration files which accompany a specific release of the SIP software must be
	used together with that software. Failure to do this may render the phone unusable.
Note

	In the tables in the subsequent sections, “Null” should be interpreted as the empty
	string, that is, attributeName=“” when the file is viewed in an XML editor.
	To enter special characters in a configuration file, enter the appropriate sequence
	using an XML editor:
	•	& as &
	•	” as "
	•	’ as '
	•	< as <
	•	> as >
