IF
new <model>.cfg file is loaded to the phone with
"^sip proxy ip" and any other parameter(s) from
the file specifying a " ^ "
new startup.cfg file is loaded to the phone with
"^sip proxy ip" and any other parameter(s) from
the file specifying a " ^ "
the first instance is "^sip proxy ip" and second
instance is "!sip proxy ip" in the startup.cfg,
<model>.cfg, and/or <mac>.cfg file,
Notes:
1. XML reboots take precedence over server.cfg values. Therefore, " ^ " parameters
are ignored in the startup.cfg file during XML reboots.
2. If a parameter has both a " ^ " and a " ! " preceding the same parameter (i.e. ^!sip
proxy ip: pbx.company.com), then the parameter is ignored and NOT overwritten.
Example 1
The following example illustrates the use of the " ^ " in the configuration files.
startup.cfg
^sip proxy ip: pbx.company.com
^sip proxy port: 5060
^sip registrar ip: pbx.company.com
^sip registrar port: 5060
In the above example, if an Administrator indicates the " ^ " before the parameters in the
startup.cfg file, and then loads the startup.cfg file to the phone, these four parameters are reset
to their default values, even if the parameters were previously changed on the phone.
Example 2
The following example illustrates the use of the " ^ " and "!" in the configuration files.
startup.cfg
^sip proxy ip: pbx.company.com
^sip proxy port: 5060
^sip registrar ip: pbx.company.com
^sip registrar port: 5060
<model>.cfg
!sip proxy ip: pbx.mitel.com //this parameter is locked
!sip proxy port: 5062 //this parameter is locked
!sip registrar ip: pbx.mitel.com//this parameter is locked
!sip registrar port: 5062//this parameter is locked
THEN
the "^sip proxy ip" and any other " ^ " parameters
are overwritten if previously changed by the user.
the "^sip proxy ip" and any other " ^ " parameters
are overwritten if previously changed by the user.
the value for the second instance of the parameter
("!sip proxy ip") overwrites to the startup.cfg,
<model>.cfg, and/or <mac>.cfg files previously on
the phone.
