Boot Server Security Policy

You must decide on a boot server security policy.

Polycom recommends allowing file uploads to the boot server where the security environment permits. This allows event log files to be uploaded and changes made by the phone user to the configuration (through the web server and local user interface) and changes made to the directory to be backed up.

For organizational purposes, configuring a separate log file directory is recommended, but not required. (For more information on LOG_FILE_DIRECTORY, refer to Master Configuration Files on page A-2.)

File permissions should give the minimum access required and the account used should have no other rights on the server.

The phone's server account needs to be able to add files to which it can write in the log file directory and the root directory. It must also be able to list files in all directories mentioned in the <MAC-address>.cfgfile. All other files that the phone needs to read, such as the application executable and the standard configuration files, should be made read-only through file server file permissions.

Deploying Phones From the Boot Server

You can successfully deploy SoundPoint IP and SoundStation IP phones from one or more boot servers.
