41.2.2 File Location for Automatic Update

The files for updating the device can be stored on any standard Web (HTTP/S), TFTP, or
FTP, server. The files can be loaded periodically to the device using HTTP/S, TFTP, or
FTP, . This mechanism can be used even when the device is installed behind NAT and
firewalls. The Automatic Update feature is done per file and configured by specifying the
file name and URL address of the provisioning server where the file is located. For a
description of the parameters used to configure URLs per file, see ''Automatic Update
Parameters'' on page 816.
Below are examples for configuring the file names and their URLs for Automatic Update:

ini File:
IniFileURL = 'http://www.corp.com/configuration.ini'
CptFileURL = 'http://www.corp.com/call_progress.dat'
AutoCmpFileUrl = 'http://www.corp.com/SIP_F7.00A.008.cmp
FeatureKeyURL = 'https://www.company.com/License_Key.txt'

CLI:
# configure system
(config-system)# automatic update
(automatic-update)# cli-script https://company.com/cli/<MAC>
(automatic-update)# startup-script https://company.com/startup/<MAC>
(automatic-update)# voice-configuration http://www.company.com/configuration.ini
(automatic-update)# call-progress-tones http://www.company.com/call_progress.dat
(automatic-update)# feature-key http://www.company.com/License_Key.txt
(automatic-update)# auto-firmware http://www.company.com/SIP_F7.00A.008.cmp
Note: For configuration files (ini), the file name in the URL can automatically contain
the device's MAC address for enabling the device to download a file unique to the
device. For more information, see ''MAC Address P;aceholder in Configuration File
Name'' on page 666.

41.2.3 MAC Address Placeholder in Configuration File Name

You can configure the file name of the configuration file (ini) in the URL to automatically
include the MAC address of the device. As described in ''File Location for Automatic
Update'' on page 666, the file name is included in the configured URL of the provisioning
server where the file is located.
Including the MAC address in the file name is useful if you want the device to download a
file that is unique to the device. This feature is typically implemented in mass provisioning
of devices where each device downloads a specific configuration file. In such a setup, the
provisioning server stores configuration files per device, where each file includes the MAC
address of a specific device in its file name.
To support this feature, you need to include the MAC address string, "<MAC>" anywhere in
the configured file name of the URL, for example:
IniFileURL = 'https://www.company.com/config_<MAC>.ini'
https://company.com/files/cli_script_<MAC>.txt
(automatic-update)# startup-script
https://company.com/files/startup_<MAC>.txt
The device automatically replaces the string with its hardware MAC address, resulting in a
file name
config_00908F033512.ini or startup_00908F033512.txt. Therefore, you can configure all
the devices with the same URL and file name.
