Bootup Process
1. The firmware loads the configuration parameters (Settings) stored on the phone's flash
memory (either factory defaults or previously changed).
2. The firmware performs a check if the Provisioning URL (parameter setting_server) has
been changed manually.
YES: The given Provisioning URL (parameter setting_server) will be requested.
NO: see next step.
3. If the DHCP parameter is enabled the firmware performs a check whether the
supported DHCP options have been received in the DHCP offer:
YES:
NO: see next step.
4. Since the pnp_config parameter is enabled by default, the phone will send a SIP
SUBSCRIBE message to the multicast address 224.0.1.75:5060. The firmware waits
for a limited time whether a SIP NOTIFY reply is received with the Provisioning URL in
the body, e.g. http://server/vtech/vtech.xml
YES:
NO: see next step.
5. If none of the above steps could be applied the firmware requests the factory default
Provisioning URL: http://provisioning.vtech.com/vtechXXX/vtechXXX.php?mac={mac}
Provisioning
The value found in Option 66 will be stored in parameter update_server,
e.g. http://server
The value found in Option 67 will be stored in parameter update_filename,
e.g. vtech/vtech.xml
Initially the Provisioning URL will be composed using update_server and
update_filename and will be requested,
e.g. http://server/vtech/vtech.xml. If Option 67 is absent, the Provisioning
URL is composed using update_server and {phoneType}.htm, e.g.
http://server/VTechET685.htm
In a second attempt the MAC address, i.e.-{mac}, will be concatenated and
the resulting Provisioning URL will be requested,
e.g. http://server/vtech/vtech-0011A0YXXXX.xml or
http://server/VTechET685-0011A0YXXXX.htm respectively.
Initially the Provisioning URL found in the body will be requested,
e.g. http://server/vtech/vtech.xml
In a second attempt the MAC address, i.e.-{mac}, will be concatenated and the
resulting Provisioning URL will be requested,
e.g. http://server/vtech/vtech-0011A0YXXXX.xml
