One way to take advantage of this is by classifying theconfiguration files into the following 3 types:Type UsageMaster configuration file Configure settings that are common to all units, such as the SIPserver address, and the IP addresses of the DNS and NTP (NetworkTime Protocol) servers managed by your phone system dealer. Thisconfiguration file is used by all the units.Example of the configuration file’s URL:http://prov.example.com/ConfigCommon.cfgProduct configuration file Configure settings that are required for a particular model. Thisconfiguration file is used by all the units that have the same modelname.Example of the configuration file’s URL:http://prov.example.com/Config{MODEL}.cfgNote• When a unit requests the configuration file, "{MODEL}" isreplaced by the model name of the unit.Standard configuration file Configure settings that are unique to each unit, such as the phonenumber, user ID, password, etc.Example of the configuration file’s URL:http://prov.example.com/Config{MAC}.cfgNote• When a unit requests the configuration file, "{MAC}" isreplaced by the MAC address of the unit.Depending on the situation, you can use all 3 types of configuration files, and can also use only a standardconfiguration file.2.4.3.4 Downloading Configuration FilesDownloading a Configuration File via the Web User InterfaceThe following procedure describes how to enable downloading a configuration file via the Web User Interfaceto be used for programming the unit.1.
