Creating a New Provisioning File
Via the Configuration Manager of a COMfortel 1400IP/2600IP/3600IP you can create a phone configuration and then select the configuration data which are to be distributed to other phones.
Proceed as follows:
Using the Configuration Manager
*Note: The account IDs used in the PBX and for the exchange lines can be found in the File Editor under Subscriber (scr.) > IP provisioning > File management > Edit > Account IDs
*Note: We recommend to contact the system administrator or specialised dealer for editing provisioning files.
1. Open the Configuration Manager of the IP phone.
2. Open the page Settings > Personal > Backup and reset.
3. Click in the line Phone configuration on Export.
4. Accept the legal notes by entering Ok in the entry field.
5. Click Export.
6. Save the created *.xml file created on your PC.
7. Open the *xml file with a text editor, e.g. Notepad++.
8. Press Alt 0 in Notepad++ to close the sub-levels to get a better overview.
9. Select the level which you want to distribute to other phones by deleting the levels that are not required.
*Note: In the case that the file shall be used as Template, the section <providersAndAccounts> </providersAndAccounts> must not be deleted as it is replaced by the subscriber-specific data by the PBX.
10. If required, open the level by clicking in order to modify the settings made there.
