Most of the default settings are typically adequate, however, if SNTP
settings are not available through DHCP, the SNTP GMT offset and

(Optional) Disable the local web (HTTP) server or change its

signalling port if local security policy dictates.

Change the default location settings for user interface language and
time and date format.

(Optional) Create a master configuration file by performing the following
steps:

Create per-phone or per-platform <Ethernet address>.cfg files by
using the 00000000000.cfg and files from the distribution as templates.

Edit the CONFIG_FILES attribute of the <Ethernet address>.cfg files
so that it references the appropriate phone[MACaddress].cfg file.

For example, replace the reference to phone1.cfg with

phone[MACaddress].cfg.

Edit the CONFIG_FILES attribute of the <Ethernet address>.cfg files

so that it references the appropriate sipXXXX.cfg file.

For example, replace the reference to sip.cfg with sip650.cfg.

Edit the LOG_FILE_DIRECTORY attribute of the <Ethernet

address>.cfg files so that it points to the log file directory.

Edit the CONTACT_DIRECTORY attribute of the <Ethernet
address>.cfg files so that it points to the organization’s contact

directory.
