the required provisioning of the directory structure on your FTP update
server,

the files involved in the IP Phone 1535 software update process, and

the special handling requirements for the FirmwareUpdateRequest.acfg
file.

Configuring the FTP server login account

For the IP Phone 1535 to successfully obtain software updates, you must
configure a login account on your FTP server, which the IP Phone 1535 will
use in making its connection during the software update process.

You must provision an FTP user account with a username and password as
follows:

Username: ipphone

Password: 15354all

When the IP Phone 1535 attempts to make a connection to your FTP
server, it will automatically do so using this username and password. These
required username and password values are coded into the firmware of the
IP Phone 1535, and so your FTP account information must be configured
to match.

Provisioning the FTP server directory structure

In order for the IP Phone 1535 to successfully find the software update files
available on your FTP update server, the directory structure on the FTP
server must be provisioned as follows:

/ [hardware version] / [software version]

.

The ROOT (/) Directory: The ROOT Folder of your FTP server is
the folder to which the IP Phone 1535 will connect and authenticate
itself (using the username ipphone and the password 15354all, as
provisioned in your FTP account setup).

The [hardware version] Folder: This folder sits inside the Root folder -
the name of the [hardware version] folder corresponds to the hardware
version of your IP Phone 1535. You will need a corresponding [hardware
version] folder inside the Root folder for every different hardware version
for every IP Phone 1535 device installed on your network. That is, if you
have an IP Phone 1535 with hardware version 1.0, you will need to have
a corresponding [hardware version] folder named ’1.0’ within your Root
folder. If you then also have an IP Phone 1535 installed on your network
with hardware version 1.1, you will need to add a second [hardware
