6. SIP Handset Features

In order for the handset to function in the SIP environment, it downloads two files
from the root directory of the SIP TFTP server during startup. The first file contains
generic system information and is downloaded by every handset during the power-up
sequence. A second file, unique for each handset, is then downloaded. It contains
specific information for each handset such as username, password, and line
appearances. Both of these files must be written locally.

6.1 SIP TFTP Server Configuration Files

The two file types, generic and specific, are identical in format. Any or all of the
configuration information can be contained in either file. Any information in the
specific file that conflicts with the information in the generic file will take precedence
over that in the generic file. Authentication information will be accepted from both
files. For ease of administration, it is recommended both file types be utilized.

Guidelines

• The files are in plain text, US-ASCII. The general form of the configuration file

data is “parameter = value.”

• The generic filename must be SIP_allusers.cfg.
• Each specific filename must have the form of SIP_username.cfg where

[username] is as assigned to each individual user by the system administrator. See

SIP Registration

in Section 3.1 The Admin Menu.

• Username parameters are: alphanumeric, no spaces, no punctuation, case is

ignored, 1-16 characters.

• Generic file information should contain proxy server information and other SIP

system data.

• Specific file information should contain data specific to each user such as

authentication credentials and line appearance data.

• Some parameter lines accept more than one value, separated by a colon or

semicolon character as defined in the following table.

• Any line that begins with a pound sign (#) is ignored.
• In general space characters are ignored. Space characters may be included in

string values by replacing the space with “%20.”

• If necessary, other special characters may be included by using a hexadecimal

representation: (%hh) where hh is the representation of the character.

• Lines may appear in any order although maintenance may be simplified by

preserving the order in the supplied example file.

Program each of the files according to the following instructions.
