Step:
1. Set-up FTP Server:
Note: Typically all SoundPoint
phones are configured with the same FTP
account, but the FTP account provides a
means of conveniently partitioning the con-
figuration. Give each account an unique
home directory on the server and change
the configuration on an account-by-
account basis.

Instructions:
Install FTP server application or locate suitable exist-
ing server. Use RFC-compliant FTP servers. The fol-
lowing FTP servers have been tested with
®
Soundpoint IP and are known to work acceptably:
• Linux: ProFTPd 1.2.2 through 1.2.9 rc2p, ftpd-
bsd-0.3.3 (Linux port), we-ftpd 2.6.0
• Windows 2000 Server: IIS 5.0, WFTPD 2.03
• Create account and home directory.
Copy all files from the distribution.zip file to the
®
SoundPoint IP home directory. Maintain the same
folder hierarchy.
Obtain a list of telephone Ethernet addresses (bar-
coded label on underside of telephone).
Create per-telephone phoneXXXX.cfg and <Ethernet
address>.cfg files by using the 00000000000.cfg and
phone1.cfg files from the distribution as templates.
Edit contents of phoneXXXX.cfg as appropriate. For
example, edit the registration parameters.
Edit the CONFIG_FILES attribute of the <Ethernet
address>.cfg files so that it references the appropriate
phoneXXXX.cfg file. (Replace the reference to
phone1.cfg with phoneXXXX.cfg.)
See 4.6.2 SIP Configuration - sip.cfg on page 101,
particularly for SIP server address.
