Multiple Configuration Server Support - Aastra 9143i Series Administrator's Manual

Multiple Configuration Server Support

An Administrator has the option of specifying whether the phones get their
firmware file, directory files, language packs, TLS certificate files, 802.1x
certificate files, and HTTPS files from the original configuration server or from
another server in the network. This feature allows you to specify the URL of other
servers from which the phone can get this information.
Firmware Files and Multiple Configuration Servers
The firmware file for the phones can be downloaded from the original
configuration server or from another server specified by a URL. You can specify a
valid URL (server IP address) from which the phones get the firmware using a
new parameter called, "firmware server" in the configuration files. If a URL is
specified for this parameter, the phones in the network get the security.tuz,
<mac>.cfg, and aastra.cfg files from the original configuration server, and the
firmware files from the server specified in the URL.
Examples
To download all configuration and firmware files from the original
configuration server:
firmware server:
Leaving this parameter blank downloads all configuration and firmware files from
the original configuration server.
To download all firmware files from another specified server:
firmware server: tftp://10.30.102.158/test1
41-001160-03 Rev 00, Release 2.5
Note: The default method for the download of all files and firmware to
the phones is from the original configuration server. The Administrator
must specify a correct server URL for the phones to get their
firmware information from that server. If the URL is incorrect, no
firmware download occurs to the phones from the specified server.
