File Structure; Backup Processing - Avaya 4600 Series Administrator's Manual

Backup/Restore for 4610SW, 4620/4620SW, 4621SW, 4622SW and 4625SW IP Telephones
user can specify alternative FTP servers or FTP directory paths. These alternate server
addresses or directory paths are retained in non-volatile memory, but do not overwrite the
values of FTPSRVR or FTPDIR. When FTPUSERSTAT is "2", the user can specify alternative
FTP directory paths, but is not allowed to specify alternative FTP servers. The alternate
directory path is retained in non-volatile memory, but does not overwrite the value of FTPDIR.
Regardless of the FTPUSERSTAT value a user can specify an FTP User Name and FTP
Password using telephone options. The FTP User Name and FTP Password, if any, are
associated with the FTP server and directory path being presented to the user when the FTP
User Name and FTP Password are saved, for example, the current server and directory path.
"Associated" means the FTP User Name and FTP Password are included in the FTP messages
generated by the telephone when communicating with the displayed server and directory path.

File Structure

For H.323 telephones, data is saved in a text file called ext_4610data.txt or ext_4620data.txt
or ext_4625data.txt, as appropriate to the telephone type, where ext stands for the telephone
extension as stored in the system value NVPHONEXT. For SIP telephones, data is saved in a
text file called ext_4610data_sip.txt or ext_4620data_sip.txt or ext_4625data_sip.txt, as
appropriate to the telephone type. The 4621SW and 4622SW use "4620" as the telephone type
for purposes of the Backup/Restore filename, to allow seamless upgrades from 4620s if
applicable.

Backup Processing

The system administrator can optionally set the backup option and specify FTPSRVR or BRURI
through network administration. A telephone user can also specify these values, as covered in
Chapter 6 of the appropriate User Guide for the telephone type. Automatic backup occurs
whenever the user executes a Save command on a Speed Dial or Options/Parameter screen.
The telephone follows this process:
1. The telephone checks system value BRURI.
2. If BRURI has a non-null valid value, the telephone attempts to store the backup file in the
URI specified by BRURI.
3. If BRURI is null or invalid, the telephone attempts to store the backup file using FTP. The
telephone uses the FTP STOR command to the FTP server identified by the value of the
FTPSRVR IP Address parameter in the directory identified by the value of the FTPDIR (FTP
Directory Path) parameter.
Note:
Users can specify alternate servers and directories, for example, their own PCs,
Note:
for backups and retrievals.
