The configuration profile defines the parameter values for an IP Telephony device,
You also can specify the user access to each parameter: hidden, read-only, or
read-write. Any parameters that are not specified by a profile retain the factory
default values.
The IP Telephony device accepts a configuration profile in two formats:
•
Open Format (XML-style). See
•
Proprietary Plain-Text Format. See
File, page
37.
Use the SIP Profile Compiler (SPC) to create your configuration profile.
You can use SPC to generate an XML file that contains all the current
settings for a particular device, and then edit the file as needed.
Alternatively, if you are using the proprietary plain-text format, you can
use the SPC to compile your text file as a binary object.
To download the SPC tool, see
run the SPC tool, open a command prompt and run the executable file.
The open format configuration profile is a text file with XML-like syntax in a
hierarchy of elements, with element attributes and values. The XML-style format
lets you use standard tools to create the configuration file. A configuration file in
open, XML-style format can be sent from the provisioning server to the IP
Telephony device during a resync operation without compiling the file as a binary
object. An example XML profile can be generated by using the SIP Profile
Compiler tool.
The IP Telephony device can accept configuration formats that are generated by
standard tools. This feature eases the development of back-end provisioning
server software to generate configuration profiles from existing databases.
To protect confidential information contained in the configuration profile, this file is
generally delivered from the provisioning server to the IP Telephony device over a
secure channel provided by HTTPS.
