Understanding Phone Configuration Files
Phone Configuration Files" chapter in Cisco Unified Communications Manager Security Guide. A phone
requests a configuration file whenever it resets and registers with Cisco Unified Communications
Manager.
A phone accesses a default configuration file named XmlDefault.cnf.xml from the TFTP server when
the following conditions exist:
The phone has not been added to the Cisco Unified Communications Manager Database
•
The phone is registering for the first time
•
If auto registration is not enabled and you did not add the phone to the Cisco Unified Communications
Manager database, the phone does not attempt to register with Cisco Unified Communications Manager.
The phone continually displays the "Configuring IP" message until you either enable auto-registration
or add the phone to the Cisco Unified Communications Manager database.
If the phone has registered before, the phone will access the configuration file named
SEPmac_address.cnf.xml, where mac_address is the MAC address of the phone.
The TFTP server generates these SIP configuration files:
SIP IP Phone:
•
–
–
–
Dial Plan—<dialplan>.xml
•
Softkey Template—<softkey_template>.xml
•
The filenames are derived from the MAC Address and Description fields in the Phone Configuration
window of Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration. The MAC address uniquely
identifies the phone. For more information refer to the Cisco Unified Communications Manager
Administration Guide.
