PROVISIONING THE CONVERGE VH20

Overview

This document describes the process of configuring a CONVERGE VH20 using configuration files and compares this
to the use of the CONVERGE Console software.

Automatic Provisioning


By default the VH20 is configured to automatically get provisioning information from a TFTP server defined by the
DHCP server. This power on default behavior can be changed to configure from a different TFTP server or to stay with
current settings. These changes can be made through the Console software by changing the network settings for
ENETTFTPIP (for the TFTP IP address) or ENETPROV (for selecting source for provisioning).

If provisioning has been enabled, at boot time two files will be requested from the TFTP server. These files are named
as follows:

CLROVoipConfig.txt

and

CLROVoipConfig_[MAC address].txt

where [MAC address] is the 12 digit hexadecimal MAC address of the VH20 to be configured. Thus the first file can
contain settings general to all units and the second file can contain unique settings specific to a unit.

NOTE: Although the settings configuration file may appear to be well formed XML, it MUST adhere to the formatting as
defined in this example. Parameter settings CANNOT be spread across multiple lines.

For example:

Valid
<username> admin </username>

Invalid
<username>

admin

</username>

Also, since there are two proxies, each proxy tag can take an index value of 0 or 1 for the primary or secondary proxy.
Those tags that take a proxy index are shown within the tag field with index=n where n = 0 or 1. For example, the tag
to enable the primary proxy sip authentication would be:

<use_sipauth index=0> 1 </use_sipauth>

A sample CLROVoipConfig.txt file containing configuration settings is shown below. After the sample file is a complete
list of tags and the ranges allowed.
