3. reads and acts upon the content of the provisioning file and decides whether any other file is
needed, based on a set of rules. If files need to be downloaded to the IP Deskphone, a new
file transfer session starts for each file to be downloaded. The provisioning file (for example,
1230SIP.cfg) can contain commands that prompt for confirmation before a file is
downloaded.
Download the SIP software
To download the SIP software, perform the following procedure.
Downloading SIP software for the IP Deskphone
1. Go to http://www.avaya.com/support.
2. Log on to the Avaya Web site with a valid Avaya User ID and Password.
The Support page appears.
3. Enter the IP Deskphone type in the Knowledge and Solution Engine box.
4. Select Software in the All types scroll-down menu.
5. Press the gray arrow at the end of the Knowledge and Solution Engine box to obtain the
Search Results.
6. From Search Results, select and download the appropriate version of the SIP software for
the IP Deskphone; for example, SIP IP Deskphone 1230 Release SIP12x004.01.03.00.bin.
7. Place the selected software on the provisioning server.
Create the SIP provisioning files
The provisioning file is downloaded from the provisioning server to the IP Deskphone every time the
IP Deskphone checks for updates. The provisioning file is a clear text file that has the naming
convention 12xxSIP.cfg. The provisioning file contains various sections.
The following is a graphical representation of the sections that can be contained in a provisioning
file. It illustrates the files which can be explicitly named as well as those that have pre-defined
names.
One thing to note is the address book, custom keys and speed dial list files can be associated with
different components. The phone downloads the these configuration files on bootup or user
registration (depending on the file) and then uses the parameters from them as required. An
address book, custom keys and speed dial list can be associated with:
• The overall device configuration file – generally used for the phone model.
• The primary server profile – used when the phone connects to the primary server.
• The secondary server profile – used when the phone connects to the secondary server.
• Each User Configuration file – used for a specific phone.
