Step 3
The URL of the server where the configuration
file for provisioning is stored (provisioning

When the unit is distributed to end users and
started up in real circumstances, provisioning
will be performed correctly.

2.4.2 Provisioning

2.4.2.1 What is Provisioning?

After pre-provisioning has been performed (® see 2.4.1 Pre-provisioning), you can set up the unit
automatically by downloading the configuration file stored on the provisioning server into the unit. This is called
"provisioning".

2.4.2.2 Protocols for Provisioning

Provisioning can be performed over HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, and TFTP. The protocol you should use differs
depending on how you will perform provisioning. Normally, HTTP, HTTPS, or FTP is used for provisioning. If
you are transmitting encrypted configuration files, it is recommended that you use HTTP. If you are transmitting
unencrypted configuration files, it is recommended that you use HTTPS. You may not be able to use FTP
depending on the conditions of the network router or the network to be used.

2.4.2.3 Configuration File

This section gives concrete examples of the functions of the configuration file and how to manage it.
The configuration file is a text file that contains the various settings that are necessary for operating the unit.
The files are normally stored on a server maintained by your phone system dealer, and will be downloaded to
the units as required. All configurable settings can be specified in the configuration file. You can ignore settings
that already have the desired values. Only change parameters as necessary.
For details about setting parameters and their descriptions, see Section 5 Configuration File
Programming.
Using 3 Types of Configuration Files
The unit can download up to 3 configuration files. One way to take advantage of this is by classifying the
configuration files into the following 3 types:
