Installation and Operation
Description
The protocol that the phone will use to obtain con-
figuration and phone application files from the
boot server. Refer to 2.2.1.2 Provisioning File
Transfer on page 6.
The boot server to use if the DHCP client is dis-
abled, the DHCP server does not send a boot
server option, or the Boot Server parameter is set
to Static. The phone can contact multiple IP
addresses per DNS name. These redundant boot
servers must all use the same protocol. If a URL is
used it can include a user name and password.
Refer to 2.2.1.2 Provisioning File Transfer on
page 6. A directory and the master configuration
file can be specified.
Note: ":", "@", or "/" can be used in the user name
or password these characters if they are correctly
escaped using the method specified in RFC 1738.
The user name used when the phone logs into the
server (if required) for the selected Server Type.
Note: If the Server Address is a URL with a user
name, this will be ignored.
The password used when the phone logs in to the
server if required for the selected Server Type.
Note: If the Server Address is a URL with user
name and password, this will be ignored.
The number of attempts to transfer a file. (An
attempt is defined as trying to download the file
from all IP addresses that map to a particular
domain name.)
The minimum amount of time that must elapse
before retrying a file transfer, in seconds. The time
is measured from the start of a transfer attempt
which is defined as the set of upload/download
transactions made with the IP addresses that map
to a given boot server's DNS host name. If the set
of transactions in an attempt is equal to or greater
than the Retry Wait value, then there will be no
further delay before the next attempt is started.
For more information, refer to 2.2.2.1.2 Boot
Server Deployment for the Phones on page 19.
If SAS-VP is selected, provisioning is done (in
addition to the normal process).
