2.2 Provisioning

2.2.1 What is Provisioning?

After pre-provisioning has been performed (® see 2.1 Pre-provisioning), you can set up the unit automatically
by downloading the configuration file stored on the provisioning server into the unit. This is called
"provisioning".

2.2.2 Protocols for Provisioning

Provisioning can be performed over HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, and TFTP. The protocol you should use differs
depending on how you will perform provisioning. Normally, HTTP, HTTPS, or FTP is used for provisioning. If
you are transmitting encrypted configuration files, it is recommended that you use HTTP. If you are transmitting
unencrypted configuration files, it is recommended that you use HTTPS. You may not be able to use FTP
depending on the conditions of the network router or the network to be used.
2.2.3 Configuration File
This section gives concrete examples of the functions of the configuration file and how to manage it.
The configuration file is a text file that contains the various settings that are necessary for operating the unit.
The files are normally stored on a server maintained by your phone system dealer/service provider, and will
be downloaded to the units as required. All configurable settings can be specified in the configuration file. You
can ignore settings that already have the desired values. Only change parameters as necessary.
For details about setting parameters and their descriptions, see Section 5 Configuration File
Programming.
Using 3 Types of Configuration Files
The unit can download up to 3 configuration files. One way to take advantage of this is by classifying the
configuration files into the following 3 types:
Type
Master configuration file
42 Administrator Guide
Configure settings that are common to all units, such as the SIP
server address, and the IP addresses of the DNS and NTP (Network
Time Protocol) servers managed by your phone system dealer/
service provider. This configuration file is used by all the units.
