Installation and Operation

on a label on the back of the phone. If this file cannot be downloaded, the phone will search for the default master configuration file described below.

Default Master Configuration File

For systems in which the configuration is identical for all phones (no per-phone

<Ethernet address>.cfg files), the default master configuration file may be used to set the configuration for all phones. The file named 000000000000.cfg (<12 zeros>.cfg) is the default master configuration file and it is recommended that one be present on the boot server. If a phone does not find its own <Ethernet address>.cfg file, it will use this one, and establish a baseline configuration. This file is part of the standard Polycom distribution of configuration files. It should be used as the template for the <Ethernet address>.cfg files.

The default master configuration file, 000000000000.cfg, is shown below: Example:

<?xml version=”1.0” standalone=”yes”?>

<!-- Default Master SIP Configuration File -->

<!-- edit and rename this file to <Ethernet-address>.cfg for each

phone. -->

Master configuration files contain six XML attributes:

APP_FILE_PATH

The path name of the application executable. It can have a maximum

 

length of 255 characters. This can be a URL with its own protocol,

 

user name and password, for example http://usr:pwd@server/dir/

 

sip.ld.

 

 

CONFIG_FILES

A comma-separated list of configuration files. Each file name has a

 

maximum length of 255 characters and the list of file names has a

 

maximum length of 2047 characters, including commas and white

 

space. Each configuration file can be specified as a URL with its own

 

protocol, user name and password, for example ftp://usr:pwd@server/

 

dir/phone2034.cfg.

 

 

MISC_FILES

A comma-separated list of other required files. Dictionary resource

 

files listed here will be stored in the phone's flash file system. So if the

 

phone reboots at a time when the boot server is unavailable, it will still

 

be able to load the preferred language.

 

Note: On the IP 500, there is insufficient room for a language file.

 

Specifying one will cause a reboot loop.

 

 

LOG_FILE_DIRECTORY

An alternative directory to use for log files if required. A URl can also

 

be specified. This is blank by default.
