Teams IP Phones support two types of boot files: common boot file and MAC-Oriented boot file. You can use the
default boot template file “y000000000000.boot” to create MAC-Oriented boot file by making a copy and renaming
it.
Note: You can select whether to use the boot file or not according to your deployment scenario. If you do not
want to use the boot file, please go to Configuration Files.

Customizing a Boot File
Common Boot File
Common boot file, named y000000000000.boot, is effective for all phones. You can use a common boot file to apply
common feature settings to all of the phones rather than a single phone.
MAC-Oriented Boot File
MAC-Oriented boot file is named <MAC>.boot. It will only be effective for a specific phone. In this way, you have a
high permission to control over each phone by making changes on a per-phone basis.
You can create a MAC-Oriented boot file for each phone by making a copy and renaming the boot template file
(y000000000000.boot). For example, if your phone MAC address is 00156574B150, rename the template file as
00156574b150.boot (lowercase).
Tip: MAC address, a unique 12-digit serial number, is assigned to each phone. You can obtain it from the bar
code on the back of the phone.
Boot File Attributes
The following table lists the attributes you need to know in the boot template file.
Attributes Description
#!version:1.0.0.1 It must be placed in the first line. Do not edit and delete.
include:config <xxx.cfg>
include:config "xxx.cfg"
Each “include” statement can specify a location of a configuration
file. The configuration file format must be *.cfg.
The locations in the angle brackets or double quotation marks
support two forms:
• Relative path (relative to the boot file):
Note: For example, sip.cfg, HTTP Directory/sip.cfg
• Absolute path (or URL):
Note:
For example, http://10.2.5.258/Teams.cfg
The location must point to a specific CFG file.
[$MODEL]
The [$MODEL] can be added to specify settings for specific phone
models. $MODEL represents the phone model name.
The valid phone model names are: T58A, T56A, T55A, VP59 and
CP960.
Multiple phone models are separated by commas. For example,
[T58A, T56A].
