Configuration File Tips and Security
All configuration settings are initially stored in a configuration template file. Copy, rename,
and edit the template file to create a general configuration file and the MAC-specific
configuration files you will need. You can store the general configuration file and the
MAC-specific files on your provisioning server.
Do not modify the configuration file header line that includes the model and firmware
version.
To save yourself time and effort, consider which settings will be common to all (or the
majority of) C620 SIP Wireless Conference Phones. Such settings might include call
settings, language, and NAT settings. You can then edit those settings in the configuration
template and save it as the general configuration file. The remaining settings will make up
the MAC-specific configuration file, which you will have to copy and edit for each C620.
Clearing parameters with %NULL in configuration file
For configuration file parameters that can have a text string value, you can clear the value
of the parameter by applying the value %NULL in the configuration file.
For example: sip_account.1.display_name = %NULL
Guidelines for the MAC-specific configuration file
The C620 downloads the MAC-specific configuration file after the general configuration file.
You must create a MAC-specific configuration file for each C620 in your organization's
telephone system. The file name must contain the C620 MAC address, which is printed on
a label on the back of the device. For example, a Snom C620 SIP Wireless Conference
Phone with the MAC address of 00:11:A0:10:6F:2D would download the
C620_0011A0106F2D.cfg file.
When renaming a MAC-specific configuration file, ensure the filename is all upper
case.
The MAC-specific configuration file contains settings intended exclusively for that C620 SIP
Wireless Conference Phone. Such settings will include SIP account settings such as
display name, user ID, and authentication ID.
