Configuration Methods
41-001343-02 REV05 – 07.2014 2-16
As an example, the following table describes how the parameter “sip proxy ip” is handled by the phone during phone
bootup when either the “ ^ “ (default parameter) is used or the “ ! “ (locked parameter) is used.
Example 1
The following example illustrates the use of the “ ^ “ in the configuration files.
aastra.cfg
^sip proxy ip: pbx.company.com
^sip proxy port: 5060
^sip registrar ip: pbx.company.com
^sip registrar port: 5060
In the above example, if an Administrator indicates the “ ^ “ before the parameters in the aastra.cfg file, and then loads the
aastra.cfg file to the phone, these four parameters are reset to their default values, even if the parameters were previously
changed on the phone.
Example 2
The following example illustrates the use of the “ ^ “ and “!” in the configuration files.
aastra.cfg
^sip proxy ip: pbx.company.com
^sip proxy port: 5060
^sip registrar ip: pbx.company.com
^sip registrar port: 5060
<model>.cfg
!sip proxy ip: pbx.aastra.com //this parameter is locked
!sip proxy port: 5062 //this parameter is locked
!sip registrar ip: pbx.aastra.com //this parameter is locked
!sip registrar port: 5062 //this parameter is locked
<mac>.cfg
sip proxy port: 5064 //this parameter is unlocked
sip registrar port: 5064 //this parameter is unlocked
IF THEN
new <mac>.cfg file is loaded to the phone with “^sip proxy ip” and any
other parameter(s) from the file specifying a “ ^ “
the “^sip proxy ip” and any other “ ^ “ parameters are overwritten if pre-
viously changed by the user.
new <model>.cfg file is loaded to the phone with “^sip proxy ip” and any
other parameter(s) from the file specifying a “ ^ “
the “^sip proxy ip” and any other “ ^ “ parameters are overwritten if pre-
viously changed by the user.
new aastra.cfg file is loaded to the phone with “^sip proxy ip” and any
other parameter(s) from the file specifying a “ ^ “
the “^sip proxy ip” and any other “ ^ “ parameters are overwritten if pre-
viously changed by the user.
the first instance is “^sip proxy ip” and second instance is “!sip proxy ip”
in the aastra.cfg, <model>.cfg, and/or <mac>.cfg file,
the value for the second instance of the parameter (“!sip proxy ip”) over-
writes to the aastra.cfg, <model>.cfg, and/or <mac>.cfg files previously on
the phone.
Notes:
• XML reboots take precedence over server.cfg values. Therefore, “ ^ “ parameters are ignored in the aastra.cfg file
during XML reboots.
• If a parameter has both a “ ^ “ and a “ ! “ preceding the same parameter (i.e., ^!sip proxy ip: pbx.company.com), then
the parameter is ignored and NOT overwritten.
