Creating Provisioning Scripts
Proprietary Plain-Text Configuration File
Cisco Small Business IP Telephony Devices Provisioning Guide
Source Text Syntax
The syntax of the plain-text file accepted by SPC is a series of parameter-value
pairs, with the value enclosed in double quotes. Each parameter-value pair is
followed by a semicolon (for example, parameter_name "parameter_value";). If no
quoted value is specified for a parameter (or if a parameter specification is
missing entirely from the plain-text file) the value of the parameter remains
unchanged in the IP Telephony device.
The syntax also controls the User account access to the parameter in the
administration web server. An optional exclamation point or question mark,
immediately following the parameter name, indicates the parameter should be
read-write (!) or user read-only (?) for the User account.
If neither mark is present, the parameter is made inaccessible to the user from the
web server pages. Note that this syntax has no effect on the Admin account
access to the parameter. If the parameter specification is missing entirely from the
plain-text file, the User account access to the parameter remains unchanged in the
IP Telephony device.
If the plain-text file contains multiple occurrences of the same parameter-value
specification, the last occurrence overrides any earlier ones. To avoid accidentally
overwriting configuration values, it is recommended that a profile includes no
more than one specification for each parameter.
The element names derive from the field names in the administration web pages
for the device, with the following modifications:
•
Element names may not include spaces or special characters. To derive the
element name from the field name, substitute an underscore for spaces or
the following special characters: [ ] ( ) /
For example, the Resync On Reset field is represented by the following
element: <Resync_On_Reset>
•
Each element name must be unique. For fields that are duplicated on multiple
Line, User, or Extension pages, you must append [n] to indicate the line, user,
or extension number.
For example, the Dial Plan for Line 1 is represented by the following
element: <Dial_Plan[1]>
