Administrator’s Guide for SIP-T58V/T58A/T56A/CP960 IP Phones78If you set “static.auto_provision.custom.sync =1”, then the phones attempt to upload the MAC-local.cfg file to the pro-visioning server each time the file updates. When performing auto provisioning, they download their own MAC-loc-al.cfg file from the provisioning server, and then update settings in MAC-local.cfg file to the IP phone system. Thepersonalized settings locally are overridden by the MAC-local.cfg file from the provisioning server.If you set “static.auto_provision.custom.sync =0”, the MAC-local.cfg file will be kept locally. The personalized settingswill not be overridden after auto provisioning.Scenario: Keeping user personalized settings after factory resetThe IP phone requires factory reset when it has a breakdown, but the user wishes to keep personalized settings of thephone after factory reset. Before factory reset, make sure that you have set “static.auto_provision.custom.sync =1”, andthe MAC-local.cfg file has kept on the provisioning server.After resetting all configurations to factory defaults, both the parameters settings “static.auto_pro-vision.custom.protect” and “static.auto_provision.custom.sync” are reset to 0. Although the MAC-local.cfg files locallyare cleared, they are still kept on the provisioning server.You can set “static.auto_provision.custom.protect =1” and “static.auto_provision.custom.sync =1”, and then triggerthe phone to perform auto provisioning. The phones download their own MAC-local.cfg file from the provisioningserver, and then update settings in MAC-local.cfg file to the IP phone system.As a result, the personalized configuration settings of the phone are retrieved after the factory reset.Clearing User's Personalized Configuration SettingsWhen the IP phone is given to a new user but many personalized configurations settings of the last user are saved onthe phone; or when the end user encounters some problems because of the wrong configurations, you can clear user’spersonalized configuration settings.l Via phone user interface at the path: Settings->Advanced Settings (default password: admin) ->Reset config->Reset local settings.l Via web user interface at the path: Settings->Upgrade->Reset Local Settings.NoteThe Reset local settings option on the web/phone user interface appears only if you set “static.auto_pro-vision.custom.protect = 1”.If you set “static.auto_provision.custom.sync = 1”, the MAC-local.cfg file on the provisioning server will be cleared too. If not,the MAC-local.cfg file is kept on the provisioning server, and the IP phone could download it and update the configurationsto the phone after the next auto provisioning.Example: Deploying Phones from the Provisioning ServerAfter setting up your provisioning server(s), you can deploy your phone devices. The following example shows youhow to use the boot and configuration files to deploy phones from the provisioning server.Procedure1. Create per-phone boot file and common boot file.For example, 001565b09d886.boot and y000000000000.boot.2. Create per-phone configuration files or common configuration files, and edit the feature parameters in the file youwant to apply to the phones. For example,Custom configuration file:CustomSettings.cfglocal_time.time_format = 1lang.gui = Chinese_S
