Configuration File Tips And Security; Guidelines For The Mac-Specific Configuration File - VTech ErisTerminal VSP600 Administrator And Provisioning Manual

Configuration File Tips and Security

All configuration settings are initially stored in a configuration template file. Copy, rename,
and edit the template file to create a general configuration file and the MAC-specific
configuration files you will need. You can store the general configuration file and the
MAC-specific files on your provisioning server.
Do not modify the configuration file header line that includes the model and firmware
version.
To save yourself time and effort, consider which settings will be common to all (or the
majority of) VSP600 base stations. Such settings might include call settings, language, and
NAT settings. You can then edit those settings in the configuration template and save it as
the general configuration file. The remaining settings will make up the MAC-specific
configuration file, which you will have to copy and edit for each VSP600.

Guidelines for the MAC-Specific configuration file

The VSP600 downloads the MAC-specific configuration file after the general configuration
file. You must create a MAC-specific configuration file for each VSP600 in your system. The
file name must contain the VSP600 MAC address, which is printed on a label on the bottom
of the device. For example, a VTech VSP600 base station with the MAC address of
00:11:A0:10:6F:2D would download the VSP600_0011A0106F2D.cfg file.
When renaming a MAC-specific configuration file, ensure the filename is all upper
case.
The MAC-specific configuration file contains settings intended exclusively for that VSP600
base station. Such settings will include SIP account settings such as display name, user ID,
and authentication ID.
