Re: [asterisk-users] Polycom config file location
K, here's something a phone coughed up the other day: ?xml version=1.0 standalone=yes? PHONE_CONFIG OVERRIDES reg.1.ringType=17/ /PHONE_CONFIG and here's another chunk from another phone. ?xml version=1.0 standalone=yes?

I think these are situations in which configurations made to the phone had to be written here to override the global provisioning files. These exist in the ftp account's home dir as *-phone.cfg Moj I'd love to see ngrep output of the communication between the phone and the FTP server for this. why?

Re: [asterisk-users] Polycom config file location
Stephen, I would check with your polycom reseller. They should have the files you are looking for and you know they will be at least from a creditable source. In terms of setting up your phones for ftp provisioning, you will need to edit the files that you obtain from the reseller, and edit them to match the settings your phones currently have, otherwise it will download whichever files you have. on the server and overwrite the current configuration with the ones on the FTP server. For the most part, the change shouldn't take to long, the files have about 5 to 10 things that you will need to change. Kevin Stephen Murphy wrote: I have deployed 5 Polycom 301 phones manually and I would now like to provision them via my ftp server. My question is: How do I get the current config files the phone is using off the phone? If I do an ftp provisioning all the phones info will be lost true? So basically I need to get the current config files and upload them to the ftp server.
