4.3 Updating and Rebooting

The bootROM, application executable, and configuration files can be updated auto- matically through the centralized provisioning (boot server) model. There files are read-only by default.

To automatically update:

1.Back up old application and configuration files. The old configuration can be easily restored by reverting to the back-up files.

2.Customize new configuration files or apply new or changed parameters to

the old configuration files. Differences between old and new versions of configuration files are explained in the Release Notes that accompany the software. Changes to site-wide configuration files such as sip.cfg can be done manually, but a scripting tool is useful to change per-phone configu- ration files.

Important

The configuration files listed in CONFIG_FILES attribute of the master configuration file must be updated when the software is updated. Any new configuration files must be added to the COBFIG_FILES attribute in the appropriate order.

For more information, refer to the “Configuration File Management on SoundPoint® IP Phones” whitepaper at www.polycom.com/support/voip/ .

3.Save the new configuration files and images (such as sip.ld) on the boot server.

4.Reboot the phones. Refer to Manual Reboot: Menu Option or Key Presses on page 80.
