Chapter 3 - Basic Configuration Administration Manual (SIP/MGCP Version)
AT-VP504E FXS 28
By using the user interface of the IP Communication
Server.
See the
IP Communication Server Administration Manual
for
more details on how to use it to configure any AT-VP504E
FXS communication unit on the network.
Please refer to the
MIB Reference
manual for a complete list of
variables that can be set.
Sending
Configuration
Data to the
AT-VP504E
FXS
The configuration data that must be provisioned into the AT-VP504E
FXS can be supplied in two ways:
as a configuration file sent from the Unit Manager to the
AT-VP504E FXS via TFTP
as a MIB sent from the Unit Manager to the AT-VP504E
FXS via SNMP
Configuration File
The configuration file has the advantage of being the fastest way to
deliver the necessary information. This may be important in the
situation where you must initialize a large number of units at the same
time. However it has one serious disadvantage: the file must be sent
all at the same time and individual variables cannot be changed without
sending a whole new file. The configuration file is mostly used for the
initial provisioning sequence (see “Initial Provisioning Sequence” on
page 21 for more details).
It is also possible to request a configuration file by setting the following
two Provisioning MIB variables:
apaCmdRequestConfiguration = 1
apaCmdConfigurationMode = -1
The Unit Manager, if properly set up, can send a new configuration file
at any time you want. This could be used to update the MIB variables
all at the same time. This requires to reboot the AT-VP504E FXS.
The configuration file format is like a Microsoft
.INI
file, except that the
value is enclosed by two double quotes (even for numbers) and there
is no section marker [section].
Normally, there is only one attribute assignment per line. A carriage
return line feed character (CRLF) terminates each line. To put some
comments, you can use the character # as the first character on the
line. In this case, the entire line will be ignored.
On each line, you can assign a value to an attribute by using this
syntax:
