5.2 Enabling/Disabling Device Update
The phone checks for firmware updates when it boots up and once every timeperiod defined
in its Configuration File.
Default: Once every 24 hours.
The phone checks for firmware updates using the HTTP POST web service. The URL is
extracted from the inband provisioning information under:
updatesServerInternalUrl
updatesServerExternalUrl
Two in-band provisioning parameters enable the device update feature:
'updatesServerEnabled' and 'EnableDeviceUpdate'.
If 'updatesServerEnabled' is set to true and 'EnableDeviceUpdate' is set to any value except
false, the phone will enable the device update feature.
In addition to these in-band provisioning parameters, the phone has a local configuration
parameter 'SfBDeviceUpdate'. This parameter allows the administrator to disable the
automatic device update feature even if the feature is enabled by the in-band provisioning
parameters.
To enable/disable the device update feature:
Open the Configuration File page (Management tab > Manual Update >
Configuration File) and configure the parameter using the table below as reference.
