The configuration profile defines the parameter values for the ATA.
Standard XML authoring tools are used to compile the parameters and values. To
protect confidential information in the configuration profile, this type of file is
typically delivered from the provisioning server to the ATA over a secure channel
provided by HTTPS. See
Only UTF-8 charset is supported. If you modify the profile in an editor, do not
change the encoding format; otherwise, the ATA cannot recognize the file.
The profile is a text file with XML-like syntax in a hierarchy of elements, with
element attributes and values. This format lets you use standard tools to create the
configuration file. A configuration file in this format can be sent from the
provisioning server to the ATA during a resync operation without compiling the file
as a binary object.
You can obtain the profile for your ATA by logging on to your ATA and then entering
the path to the file: http://<LAN_IP_address>/admin/config.xml
For example, using the default IP address of the ATA, you would enter:
http://192. 1 68. 1 5. 1 /admin/config.xml
To protect confidential information contained in the configuration profile, this file is
generally delivered from the provisioning server to the ATA over a secure channel
provided by HTTPS. Optionally, the file can be compressed by using the gzip
deflate algorithm (RFC1951). In addition, the file can be encrypted by using 256-bit
AES symmetric key encryption.
