Controls all aspects of the phone after it has restarted.

3.

Uploads log files.

BootROM and Application Wrapper

Both the bootROM and the application run on multiple platforms (meaning all

previously released versions of hardware that are still supported).
The file stored on the boot server is a wrapper, with multiple hardware specific

images contained within. When a new bootROM or application is being saved,

the file is read until a header matching the hardware model and revision are

found, and then only this image is saved to flash memory.

Configuration

The SoundPoint IP / SoundStation IP phones can be configured automatically

through files stored on a central boot server, manually through the phone’s

local UI or web interface, or a combination of the automatic and manual

methods.
The recommended method for configuring phones is automatically through a

central boot server, but if one is not available, the manual method will allow

changes to most of the key settings.
The phone configuration files consist of:

Master Configuration Files

Application Configuration Files

The master configuration files can be one of:

Warning

Configuration files should only be modified by a knowledgeable system
administrator. Applying incorrect parameters may render the phone unusable. The
configuration files which accompany a specific release of the SIP software must be
used together with that software. Failure to do this may render the phone unusable.
