User's Manual 10. INI File-Based Management
10.3 Loading an ini File to the Device
You can load an ini file to the device using the following methods:
Web interface:
• Load Auxiliary Files page (see ''Loading Auxiliary Files'' on page 677): The device
updates its configuration according to the loaded ini file, while preserving the
remaining current configuration.
• Configuration File page (see ''Backing Up and Loading Configuration File'' on
page 707): The device updates its configuration according to the loaded ini file,
and applies default values to parameters that were not included in the loaded ini
file. Thus, all previous configuration is overridden.
AudioCodes AcBootP utility: Bootstrap Protocol (BootP) with TFTP is used to load the
file. The device updates its configuration according to the loaded ini file, and applies
default values to parameters that were not included in the loaded ini file. Thus, all
previous configuration is overridden. For more information on the AcBootP utility, refer
to AcBootP Utility User's Guide.
Any standard TFTP server: The device downloads the ini file from a TFTP server. The
device updates its configuration according to the loaded ini file, and applies default
values to parameters that were not included in the loaded ini file. Thus, all previous
configuration is overridden.
When you load an ini file to the device, its configuration settings are saved to the device's
non-volatile memory.
Note: Before you load an ini file to the device, make sure that the file extension
name is .ini.
10.4 Secured Encoded ini File
The ini file contains sensitive information that is required for the functioning of the device.
The file may be loaded to the device using TFTP or HTTP. These protocols are not secure
and are vulnerable to potential hackers. To overcome this security threat, the AudioCodes
DConvert utility allows you to binary-encode (encrypt) the ini file before loading it to the
device. For more information, refer to the DConvert Utility User's Guide.
Note: If you save an ini file from the device to a folder on your PC, an ini file that was
loaded to the device encoded is saved as a regular ini file (i.e., unencoded).
