Provisioning using configuration files is the quickest way to configure multiple VSP716A
desksets. You can place configuration files on a provisioning server, where the VSP716A
desksets retrieve the files and update their configuration automatically.
Configuration files have the extension
.cfg
and contain settings that will apply to VSP716A
desksets. To edit a configuration file, open it with a text editor such as Notepad.
The settings within a configuration file are grouped into modules. Most of the modules
group their settings in the same way that settings are grouped on the VSP716A WebUI. For
example, the "time_date" module in the configuration file contains the same settings that
are on the
Time and Date
WebUI page. For a complete list of VSP716A configuration file
modules and their associated parameters, see
“Configuration File Parameter Guide” on
.
Using the WebUI, you can also import a configuration file and apply the configuration file
settings to the VSP716A. For more information, see
“Import Configuration” on page 102
