Polycom SIP 2.2.0 manual Resource Files

Overview

The following figure shows one possible layout of the central provisioning method.

Manual Configuration

When the manual configuration method is employed, any changes made are stored in a configuration override file. This file is stored on the phone, but a copy will also be uploaded to the central boot server if one is being used. When the phone boots, this file is loaded by the application after any centrally provisioned files have been read, and its settings will override those in the centrally provisioned files.

This can create a lot of confusion about where parameters are being set, and so it is best to avoid using the manual method unless you have good reason to do so.

Resource Files

In addition to the application and the configuration files, the phones may require resource files that are used by some of the advanced features. These files are optional, but if the particular feature is being employed, these files are required.

Some examples of resource files include:

•Language dictionaries

•Custom fonts
