The RFP will retry to get the configuration files, starting with an interval of 1 minute and
doubling this interval with each retry, not exceeding the update check interval (either
default or configured).

If the RFP is using DHCP, a renew of the lease is scheduled so that possible changes in
DHCP configuration will be detected.

Failures in getting the configuration files is reported via Syslog.

Handling of parameter changes

A change of a parameter (DHCP / OM Configurator, RFP config files) does not necessarily
mean a change of the RFP configuration because the parameter could be covered up or
previously set by using an alternative way.

Example 1:
IP address of a Syslog Daemon has been changed in “ipdect.cfg” but is covered up by
“<MAC>.cfg” in which this parameter has not been changed.

Example 2:
A parameter is new in “<MAC>.cfg” but has been set previously in “ipdect.cfg” with the
same parameter value.

Only if a parameter change causes a change of RFP configuration as a sum of e.g. DHCP /
OM Configurator, “ipdect.cfg” and “<MAC>.cfg” then the RFP will perform an configuration
update procedure.

Depending on the changed parameter an RFP configuration update is done:

On the fly without any service interruption e.g. IP address of a Syslog Daemon has been
changed.

With an application restart e.g. OMM IP address has been changed.
