526 Provisioning the IP Phones

You can place the “reg” item(s) in one of the supported provisioning files.

Place the “reg” item(s) at the end of the file provisioning info data items.

Do not place any other provisioning info items after the "reg" item(s). This

is required to optimize the speed of the parsing.

The defined file precedence rules apply. If an IP Phone MAC address

is found in more than one valid "reg" item across the different files, the

file that follows the defined precedence order of device, zone, type then

system, is used.

Although the Device file is specific to a phone it can contain one or more

"reg" items. The MAC address of the "reg" item(s) is still searched to

match the IP Phone MAC address, even though the file is the device file.

When there is a list of "reg" items, the IP Phone searches the list and only

processes the "reg" item that contains the IP Phone MAC address. The

parser silently discards "reg" items that have invalid format or invalid data

for any field.

The first valid "reg" item found in a file matching the IP Phone MAC

address is used and the parsing of "reg" items in the file terminates. A

valid "reg" item is one that has the same MAC address as the IP Phone

and has valid data in all of its fields.

The following SYSTEM.PRV file content contains examples of various

valid string formats. The "reg" item data can also appear in any of the

supported .PRV files.
