MAC CFG File
Yealink supports two MAC CFG file: MAC-Oriented file and MAC-local CFG file, which are both named after the
MAC address of the phone. For example, if the MAC address of an phone is 00156574B150, the name of MAC-
Oriented CFG file is 00156574b150.cfg (lowercase), and the name of MAC-local CFG file is 00156574b150-local.cfg
(lowercase).
Note: MAC address, a unique 12-digit serial number is assigned to each phone. You can obtain it from the
bar code on the back of the phone.
• MAC-Oriented CFG File
• MAC-local CFG File
MAC-Oriented CFG File
MAC-Oriented CFG file, named <MAC>.cfg, contains the parameters that are unique to a particular phone, such as
account registration. It will only be effective for a MAC-specific phone.
MAC-local CFG File
MAC-local CFG file, named <MAC>-local.cfg, contains the changes associated with non-static parameter that you
make via web user interface or phone user interface (for example, changes for time and date formats, and phone lock).
The MAC-local.cfg file upload this file to the provisioning server each time the file updates. You can download the
file via web user interface.
This file is generated only if you enable the provisioning priority mechanism. It is stored locally on the phone and
you can upload it to the provisioning server each time the file updates. This file enables the users to keep their
personalized configuration settings, even though the phone performs auto provisioning.
Note: The non-static changes that you made before enabling the provisioning priority mechanism are not
saved in the generated MAC-local file, but the previous settings still take effect on the phone. The static
changes will never be saved to the <MAC>-local.cfg file.
The provisioning priority mechanism is enabled by the parameter "static.auto_provision.custom.protect".

MAC-local CFG File Configuration
By default, the MAC-local.cfg file is stored on the phone. You can configure the phone to upload this file to the
provisioning server each time the file updates.
The following table lists the parameters you can use to generate the MAC-local CFG file.
Parameter
Description
Permitted Values
Default
static.auto_provision.custom.protect
It enables or disables the phone to keep user's personalized settings after auto provisioning.
Note: The provisioning priority mechanism (phone/web user interface >central
provisioning >factory defaults) takes effect only if the value of this parameter is set to 1
(Enabled). If "overwrite_mode" is set to 1 in the boot file, the value of this parameter will
be set to 1 (Enabled).
0-Disabled
1-Enabled, the <MAC>-local.cfg file is generated and personalized non-static settings
configured via web or phone user interface will be kept after auto provisioning.
