Managing Boot Files

Yealink IP phones can download CFG files referenced in the boot files. Before provisioning, you
may need to edit and customize your boot files.
Yealink supports the following two types of boot files:
MAC-Oriented boot file (e.g., 00156574b150.boot)


boot file with a text editor such as Notepad++.
