Remote Configuration Files - Avaya 3641 Administration Manual

Remote configuration files

The two file types, generic and specific, are identical in format. Normally, system
information is programmed in the 46xxsettings.txt file and only user-specific information
is programmed in the SIP_<username>.txt file. However, system parameters can be in
the user file if an override is necessary. Any information in the specific file that conflicts
with the information in the generic file will take precedence over the information in the
generic file. See Appendix B for more information about parameter precedence.
Authentication information will be accepted from both files. For ease of administration, it
is recommended both file types be utilized in the way described.
Guidelines

The generic filename may be 46xxsettings.txt and this is the default filename
expected by the software. A different filename may be assigned as long as the GET
statement in the slnk_cfg.cfg command is programmed to find it. If there is no GET
statement, the software looks for a 46xxsettings.txt file.

Each specific filename must have the form of SIP_xxxx.txt, where xxxx is the
username assigned to each individual user by the system administrator. The
username is entered into the handset at the login prompt or specified by the
parameter SIP_USERNAME1 in a remote configuration file. See Chapter 6:
Configure Each Avaya 3641/3645/6120/6140 IP Wireless Handset, section The
Admin Menu, subsection

Username parameters are: numbers only, no spaces, no punctuation, 1-13
characters. See the sample 46xxsettings.txt file for complete information on allowed
characters.

Information in the specific file should contain data specific to each user such as
authentication credentials and line appearance data.

Lines may appear in any order although maintenance may be simplified by
preserving the order in the supplied example file. Lines in the WLAN section of the
364x section should remain in the same order as they appear in the sample file as
some later parameters depend on earlier parameters.
Program each of the files according to the following instructions.
