Updating the Auxiliary Files

The auxiliary files are configuration dat files that are loaded to the gateway (in addition to the
ini

file) to enable enhanced gateway provisioning. The following common auxiliary files are

available: coefficient, Voice Prompts (MGCP only) and Call Progress Tones (CPT). For
information on additional auxiliary files, refer to the V7111 User’s Manual.

Table 13

presents

a brief description of the ini file and of each auxiliary file.

and Auxiliary Files Descriptions

File Type

Description

Ini

Load this file to provision the device’s parameters. The Embedded Web Server
enables practically full device provisioning but customers may occasionally require
new feature configuration parameters in which case this file is loaded.
Note that loading the ini file only provisions parameters that are contained in the ini file.
If a parameter is not specified in the ini file, values associated with that parameter are
reset to a default value. These values may not be the same as the values that were
configured for the VoIP gateway at the time of manufacture.

After the file has completed loading, the VoIP gateway automatically
restarts (software is loaded from the flash).

FXS Coefficient

This file contains the telephony interface configuration information for the VoIP
gateway. This information includes telephony interface characteristics, such as DC and
AC impedance, feeding current and ringing voltage. This file is specific to the type of
telephony interface that the VoIP gateway supports. In most cases you have to load
this type of file.

Use the parameter ‘CountryCoefficients‘ (described in the V7111 User’s
Manual) to configure the FXO coefficients.

Voice Prompts

The voice announcement file contains a set of Voice Prompts to be played by the
V7111 during operation on Call Agent request. Only MGCP is supported.

Call Progress
Tones

This is a region-specific, telephone exchange-dependent file that contains the Call
Progress Tones levels and frequencies that the VoIP gateway uses. Default CPT file:
U.S.A.

To load an auxiliary file via the Embedded Web Server, follow these 6 steps:

1

Open the ‘Auxiliary Files’ screen (Software Update menu > Load Auxiliary Files); the
‘Auxiliary Files’ screen is displayed (shown

Figure 33

).

2

Click the Browse button that is in the field for the type of file you want to load.

3

Navigate to the folder that contains the file you want to load.

4

Click the file and click the Open button; the name and path of the file appear in the field
next to the Browse button.

5

Click the Send File button adjacent to the field that contains the name of the file you
want to load. An asterisk in the screen section indicates that the file’s loading takes effect
on-the-fly (e.g., Voice Prompts file).

6

Repeat Steps 2 to 5 for each file you want to load.
