Phone File Server Type
·
Memory Card (IP500 V2) / Disk (IP Office Server Edition)
Use the system's own memory. The system's IP address is provided as the TFTP and HTTP file server
values in the DHCP response. This is the default setting.
·
Manager
Use the IP Office Manager application as the TFTP and HTTP file server. This option is only supported for a
maximum of 5 IP phones. This option uses the separate Manager PC IP Address set in the
configuration. The default of 0.0.0.0 is used by the system to broadcast for any available IP Office
Manager application running on the network. Note that by default the IP Office Manager option for TFTP
support is disabled (File | Preferences | Preferences | Enable BootP and TFTP Servers).
·
Custom
This option uses the separate TFTP Server IP Address and HTTP Server IP Address values set in the
configuration as the files server addresses in the DHCP response given to phones.
·
HTTP Server IP Address
This field is used if the Phone File Server Type is set to Custom. It is also used if HTTP Redirection is set
to Phone Binaries.
·
When used, this server address is used for file requests by devices on both LAN1 and LAN2. Therefore, the
address must be reachable by devices on both LAN. If necessary additional network configuration and or
addition of IP route settings are required.
·
H175 and Vantage phones always use this setting for their firmware (.tar, .sig) and application (.apk) files.
They will do this regardless of the HTTP Redirection setting.
·
HTTP Redirection (Default = Off)
Supported for 9608, 9611, 9621 and 9641 H.323 phones and J100 Series SIP (except J129) phones only.
Allows for the use of an alternate HTTP file server for the download of large binary files. This field is available
when the Phone File Server Type is set to Memory Card or Disk. When this field is set to Phone Binaries,
requesting their binary files are redirected to the HTTP server defined in the HTTP Server IP Address field.
·
Use Preferred Phone Ports
This setting can be used to reduce the use of the HTTP/HTTPS ports configured in the system's security
configuration (by default ports 80 and 443) for phone file requests. The system will still provide files on those
ports in order to support legacy phones but its auto-generated file response directs newer phones to use ports
441 and 8441.
·
When not enabled:
·
Auto-generated phone settings files provided by the system to locale phones indicate the ports
80/411 or 80/443 depending on the phone type.
