For details about the settings that can be configured with the configuration files and how to specify the settings,see Section 4 Configuration File Programming.PresetFactory defaultsFactoryFactory defaultsPre-provisioningPhone system dealerPre-provisioning dataPre-provisioning can aid the installation process by allowing phone system dealers to configure beforehandthe minimum settings required to operate the unit.For example, phone system dealers can store on the TFTP server a configuration file that contains only theURL of a server where another configuration file is stored. This second configuration file contains settingsconfigured specifically for the usage environment of the user. The user will be able to start using the unit byjust connecting it to the network.Pre-provisioning is performed only once after the unit has been shipped. Once any configuration (such aspre-provisioning, provisioning, or Web user interface programming) has been applied, pre-provisioning will notbe performed again.Note that the settings configured by pre-provisioning cannot be restored once it has been performed. If youwant to restore them, consult your phone system dealer.Although pre-provisioning is often used to specify the location of the configuration files for provisioning, youcan configure any of the settings through pre-provisioning. The unit can be made fully operational by configuringsettings through pre-provisioning.1.1.5.2 Pre-provisioning when Setting Static IP AddressesTo perform pre-provisioning, the unit needs to acquire the TFTP server address from option 66 on a DHCPserver. Therefore, pre-provisioning cannot be performed if you use static IP addressing on your network. If youuse static IP addressing and want to perform pre-provisioning, construct a small, separate network and connecta DHCP and TFTP server to that network.In addition, if option 66 of the DHCP server cannot be set, or if you are unauthorized to change this setting,perform pre-provisioning on the separate network, and then connect the unit to the actual network.20 Administrator Guide Document Version 2013-021.1.5 Pre-provisioning
