Downloading Language Files - Avaya one-X Installation And Maintenance Manual

Note:
You use one settings file for all your Avaya IP Telephones including the 9600
Note:
Series SIP IP Telephones covered in this document, 9600 Series IP Telephones
(H.323 protocol, as covered in the Avaya one-X™ Deskphone Edition for 9600
Series IP Telephones Administrator Guide), and 4600 Series IP Telephones, as
covered in the 4600 Series IP Telephone LAN Administrator Guide (Document
555-233-507).
The Avaya-provided upgrade script file includes lines that tell the telephone to GET
46xxsettings.txt. These lines cause the telephone to use HTTP/HTTPS to attempt to download
the file specified in the GET command. If the file is obtained, its contents are interpreted as an
additional script file. That is how your settings are changed from the default settings. If the file
cannot be obtained, the telephone continues processing the upgrade script file. If the settings
file is successfully obtained but does not include any setting changes the telephone stops using
HTTP. This happens when you initially download the script file template from the Avaya support
Web site, before you make any changes. When the settings file contains no setting changes,
the telephone does not go back to the upgrade script file.
You can change the settings file name, if desired, as long as you also edit the corresponding
GET command in the upgrade script file. However, we encourage you not to alter the
Avaya-provided upgrade script file. If Avaya changes the upgrade script file in the future, any
changes you have made will be lost. We strongly encourage you to use the 46xxsettings file to
customize your settings instead.
For detailed information about modifying the settings file, see Chapter 4 in the Avaya one-X™
Deskphone Edition for 9600 Series IP Telephones Administrator Guide.
See Chapter 7 in the Avaya one-X™ Deskphone Edition for 9600 Series SIP IP
Telephones Administrator Guide for details about specific values. You need only
specify settings that vary from defaults, although specifying defaults is harmless.

Downloading Language Files

Language files must be stored in the same location as the 46xxsettings file or under the HTTP
Server directory, defined using the SET HTTPDIR [HTTP server directory path] command.
You can download a new language file version only if the filename differs from the language file
previously downloaded. Alternately, you can remove the old language file using an empty SET
LANGUAGES command in the 46xxsettings file before downloading a language file with the
same filename.
Note:
Language files for 9600 Series SIP IP Telephones have a .xml filename
Note:
extension whereas language files for 9600 Series IP Telephones set to H.323
have a .txt filename extension.
