23.1.6 User Information File
The User Information file is a text-based file that can be used for mapping PBX extensions
connected to the device to "global" IP numbers.
The User Information file can be loaded to the device by using one of the following
methods:

ini file, using the parameter UserInfoFileName (described in 'Auxiliary and
Configuration Files Parameters' on page 781)

Web interface (see 'Loading Auxiliary Files' on page 483)

Automatic update mechanism, using the parameter UserInfoFileURL (refer to the
Product Reference Manual)
23.1.6.1 User Information File for PBX Extensions and "Global" Numbers
The User Information file can be used to map PBX extensions, connected to the device, to
global IP numbers. In this context, a global phone number (alphanumerical) serves as a
routing identifier for calls in the 'IP world'. The PBX extension uses this mapping to emulate
the behavior of an IP phone.
Note: By default, the mapping mechanism is disabled and must be activated using
the parameter EnableUserInfoUsage.
The maximum size of the file is 10,800 bytes (for analog modules) and 108,000 bytes for
digital modules. Each line in the file represents a mapping rule of a single PBX extension.
Up to 1,000 rules can be configured. Each line includes five items separated with commas.
The items are described in the table below:
Table 23-2: User Information Items
Item Description Maximum Size
(Characters)
PBX extension #
The relevant PBX extension number. 10
Global phone #
The relevant global phone number. 20
Display name
A string that represents the PBX extensions for the
Caller ID.
30
Username
A string that represents the user name for SIP
registration.
40

20
Note: For FXS ports, when the device is required to send a new request with the
Authorization header (for example, after receiving a SIP 401 reply), it uses the
user name and password from the Authentication table. To use the username
and password from the User Info file, change the parameter ‘Password’ from
its default value.
