Administrator Manual
The iAN-02EX ATA supports three types of Configuration files:
■ General Configuration File: This is used to configure all the general
parameters of the ATA.
■ Group Configuration File: This is used to configure the parameters that are
similar to a specific group of ATAs. The GUI interface of the ATA has a field to
set the group to which the ATA belongs and then the ATA can download the
group specific configuration from the group specific cfg file.
■ MAC address specific Configuration File: This is used to configure the unique
parameters specific to a particular ATA.
Note: In case of the same parameter is in any of these files, the priority order is
highest for MAC address specific configuration file, followed by the group
configuration file, the last being the general configuration file.
Internally the ATA maintains one configuration file, which contains parameters
taken from all of the above configuration files.
File format of the
configuration File
General Configuration File naming convention
The General file contains only the general information of the ATA. It is
represented as: U53V005.00.00_UTSTARCOM-GENERAL.CFG.
File format is as follows:
<Board id>_<company>-<General>.cfg
Example: U53V005.00.00_UTSTARCOM-GENERAL.CFG
<Board id>= U53V005.00.00
<Company>=UTSTARCOM
<Type>=GENERAL
This file should include the general settings that are applicable to all units
deployed.
The ATA compares the board ID and the company name fields on the cfg file to
that which is set in the hardware. If it matches then ONLY the ATA considers
this configuration file authentic and downloads it and takes the configuration
parameters.
If there is a change in the parameter values compared to what is stored in the
ATA, the ATA makes changes to the configuration and performs an auto reboot
to bring the new configuration into effect.
