îš„ To automatically update the cmp file, use the parameter CmpFileURL to specify its
name and location. As a precaution (to protect the gateway from an accidental
update), by default, the Automatic Update mechanism doesn’t apply to the cmp file.
Therefore, (to enable it) set the parameter AutoUpdateCmpFile to 1.
The following example illustrates how to utilize Automatic Updates for deploying gateway
with minimum manual configuration.
¾ To utilize Automatic Updates for deploying the gateway with
minimum manual configuration, take these 5 steps:
1. Setup a Web server (e.g., http://www.corp.com) where all configuration files are
located.
2. For each gateway, pre-configure the following parameter (DHCP / DNS are assumed):
IniFileURL = 'http://www.corp.com/master_configuration.ini'
3. Create a file named master_configuration.ini with the following text:
# Common configuration for all devices
# ------------------------------------
CptFileURL = 'http://www.corp.com/call_progress.dat'
# Check for updates every 60 minutes
AutoUpdateFrequency = 60
# Additional configuration per device
# -----------------------------------
# Each device loads a file named after its MAC address,
# (e.g., config_00908F033512.ini)
IniFileURL = 'http://www.corp.com/config_<MAC>.ini'
# Reset the device after configuration is updated.
# The device resets after all of the files are processed.
You can modify the master_configuration.ini file (or any of the config_<MAC>.ini files)
at any time. The gateway queries for the latest version every 60 minutes and applies
the new settings immediately.
4. For additional security, use HTTPS or FTPS. The gateway supports HTTPS (RFC
2818) and FTPS using the AUTH TLS method <draft-murray-auth-ftp-ssl-16> for the
Automatic Update mechanism.
5. To load configuration files from an NFS server, the NFS file system parameters should
be defined in the configuration ini file. The following is an example of an ini file for
loading files from NFS servers using NFS version 2.
# Define NFS servers for Automatic Update
[ NFSServers ]
FORMAT NFSServers_Index = NFSServers_HostOrIP,
NFSServers_RootPath, NFSServers_NfsVersion;
NFSServers 1 = 10.31.2.10, /usr/share, 2 ;
NFSServers 2 = 192.168.100.7, /d/shared, 2 ;
[ \NFSServers ]
CptFileUrl = 'file://10.31.2.10/usr/share/public/usa_tones.dat'
VpFileUrl =
'file://192.168.100.7/d/shared/audiocodes/voiceprompt.dat'
