 Overview

2 - 7

The following figure shows one possible layout of the central provisioning 

method.

When the manual configuration method is employed, any changes made are 

stored in a configuration override file. This file is stored on the phone, but a 

copy will also be uploaded to the central boot server if one is being used. When 

the phone boots, this file is loaded by the application after any centrally 

provisioned files have been read, and its settings will override those in the 

centrally provisioned files.
This can create a lot of confusion about where parameters are being set, and so 

it is best to avoid using the manual method unless you have good reason to do 

so. 

In addition to the application and the configuration files, the phones may 

require resource files that are used by some of the advanced features. These 

files are optional, but if the particular feature is being employed, these files are 

required.
Some examples of resource files include: 

• Language dictionaries

• Custom fonts
