It is possible to use a name of domain completely different from uses on network. But it is more
useful to define a sub-domain of network domains. If there are sub-domains in network, it can be a
sub-domain of this sub-domain.
Example: if network domain is my-subdomain.my-domain.com, OT domain can be my-otsubdomain.
my-subdomain.my-domain.com.
To update OT already configured, use server-rehosting.sh to change OT host domain
5.1.4 Linux DEBIAN used as DHCP server
Exp of config file :
#Config file update history
#ED03: grouped VHE and 4018 phonesets
authoritative;
ddns-update-style interim;
ignore client-updates;
#deny unknown-clients;
option space ALU_ICTouch;
option ALU_ICTouch.ConfigServerPath code 67 = text;
class "vendor-classes" {match option vendor-class-identifier;}
subclass "vendor-classes" "alcatel.ictouch.0" { vendor-option-space ALU_ICTouch;}
subnet 172.25.191.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
option domain-name-servers 172.25.179.100;
option domain-name "qa.npi.com";
option routers 172.25.179.101;
option broadcast-address 172.25.179.255;
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
default-lease-time 43200; # 12 hours
max-lease-time 44000;
option vendor-encapsulated-options 3a:02:00:65;
range 172.25.191.117 172.25.191.118;
}
group {
#VHE phonesets group on TSSD234 (Patrick)
next-server 172.25.179.101;
option tftp-server-name "172.25.179.101";
option ALU_ICTouch.ConfigServerPath "/DMP/dmictouch/";
host vhe2test {
hardware ethernet 00:80:9F:A0:36:AE;
#VLAN 101
option vendor-encapsulated-options 3a:02:00:65;
fixed-address 172.25.191.117;
}
}
5.1.5 Date and time synchronization on OTBE
Symptom : no External NTP server then don’t use NTP at all.
Solution : Put manually the time on the OT and executing hwclock --systohc, rebooting the system
Virtual machines will use the date and time of the OT after a restart of the server.
After that to keep things in sync, configure NTP in the vmOXE (swinst menu – Expert) and in the vm8770
(windows time sync I think…).
5.1.6 OS language for Open Touch
Only en-US language is supported for Open Touch OS
To check : [root@tsse106 ~]# locale
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
