Auto-provisioning via Configuration File

Configurations and upgrading on R29C door phone can be done on the web interface via one-time auto-provisioning and scheduled auto- provisioning via configuration files, thus saving you from setting up configuration needed one by one manually on the door phone.

20.1. Provisioning Principle
Auto-provisioning is a feature used to configure or upgrade the devices in batch via third party servers. DHCP, PNP, TFTP, FTP, HTTPS are the protocols used by the Akuvox intercom devices to access the URL of the address of the third party server which stores configuration files and firmwares, which will then be used to update the firmware and the corresponding parameters on the door phone.
Please see the flow chart below:

20.2. Configuration Files for Auto-provisioning
Configuration files have two formats for auto-provisioning. One is the general configuration files used for general provisioning and another one is MAC-based configuration provisioning.
The difference between the two types of configuration files is shown as below:

• General configuration provisioning: a general file is stored in a server from which all the related devices will be able to download the same configuration file to update parameters on the devices. For example：r000000000083.cfg.
• MAC-based configuration provisioning: MAC-based configuration files are used for the auto-provisioning on a specific device as distinguished by its unique MAC number. And the configuration files named with the device MAC number will be matched automatically with the device MAC number before being downloaded for the provisioning on the specific device.

Note:

• If a server has these two types of configuration files, then IP devices will first access the general configuration files before accessing the MAC-based configuration files.

20.3. AutoP Schedule
Akuvox provides you with different Autop methods that enable the door phone to perform provisioning for itself at a specific time according to your schedule. To set up the schedule on the device web Upgrade > Advanced > Automatic Autop interface.

Parameter Set-up:

• Mode: select “Power on”, if you want the device to perform Autop every time it boots up. Select “ Repeatedly”, if you want the device to perform autop according to the schedule you set up. Select “Power On + Repeatedly” if you want to combine Power On Mode and Repeatedly mode that will enable the device to perform Autop every time it boots up or according to the schedule you set up. Select “Hourly Repeat” if you want the device to perform Autop every hour.
• Schedule: if “Repeatedly” is selected, you can set up the time schedule for the AutoP.

20.4. DHCP Provisioning Configuration
Auto-provisioning URL can also be obtained using the DHCP option which allows the device to send a request to a DHCP server for a specific DHCP option code. If you want to use Custom Option as defined by users with option code range from 128-255), you are required to configure DHCP Custom Option on the web Upgrade > Advanced > Automatic Autop interface.

Note:

• The custom Option type must be a string. The value is the URL of the TFTP server.

Parameter set-up:

• Custom Option: enter the DHCP code that matched with the corresponding URL so that the device will find the configuration file server for the configuration or upgrading.
• DHCP Option 66: if none of the above is set, the device will automatically use DHCP Option 66 for getting the upgrade server URL. This is done within the software and the user does not need to specify this. To make it work, you need to configure the DHCP server for option 66 with the updated server URL in it.
• DHCP Option 43: if the device does not get an URL from DHCP Option 66, it will automatically use DHCP Option 43. This is done within the software and the user does not need to specify this. To make it work, you need to configure the DHCP server for option 43 with the updated server URL in it.

Note:

• The general configuration file for the in-batch provisioning is with the format “r0000000000xx.cfg” taking R29C as an example “r000000000029.cfg ( 10 “zeros” in total while the MAC-based configuration file for the specific device provisioning is with  the format MAC_Address of the device.cfg, “0C110504AE5B.cfg.”

20.5. Static Provisioning Configuration

You can manually set up a specific server URL for downloading the firmware or configuration file on the device web interface. If an autop schedule is set up, the door phone will perform the auto provisioning at a specific time according to autop schedule you set up. In addition, TFTP, FTP, HTTP, and HTTPS are the protocols that can be used for upgrading the device firmware and configuration. To download the Autop template on Upgrade > Advanced > Automatic Autop, and setup Autop server on Upgrade >  Advanced > Manual Autop interface.

Parameter Set-up:

• URL: set up tftp, http, https, ftp server address for the provisioning.
• User Name: set up a user name if the server needs a user name to be accessed otherwise leave it blank.
• Password: set up a password if the server needs a password to be accessed otherwise leave it blank.
• Common AES Key: set up AES code for the intercom to decipher general Auto Provisioning configuration file.
• AES Key (MAC): set up AES code for the intercom to decipher the MAC-based auto provisioning configuration file.

Note:

• AES is one type of encryption, it should be configured only when the config file is encrypted with AES, otherwise leave the field blank.

Note:
Server Address format:

• TFTP: tftp://192.168.0.19/

• FTP: ftp://192.168.0.19/ (allows anonymous login)
  ftp://username:password@192.168.0.19/ (requires a user name and password)

• HTTP: http://192.168.0.19/ (use the default port 80)
  http://192.168.0.19:8080/ (use other ports, such as 8080)

• HTTPS: https://192.168.0.19/ (use the default port 443)

Note:

• Akuvox do not provide user specified server.
• Please prepare TFTP/FTP/HTTP/HTTPS server by yourself.

20.6. TR069
TR-069 (Technical Report 069) provides the communication between Customer- Premises Equipment (CPE) and Auto-Configuration Servers (ACS).
It includes both a safe auto configuration and the control of other CPE management functions within an integrated framework. For door phones, the administrators can manage all the devices on a common TR-069 Platform. IP phones can be easily and securely configured on the TR-069 platform to make mass deployment more efficient. You can Navigate to Network > Advanced > TR069.

Parameter Set-up:

• Enabled: enable the function if needed.
