Reference:Configuration/General/Update
The update server is used for efficient administration of various VoIP devices. The update server reads a file at intervals from a configurable URL (Uniform Resource Locator).
- Command File URL: An URL, for example http://192.168.0.1/update/script-ip800.txt, pointing to a file whose commands are executed.
If the URL ends with a slash (/), for example http://192.168.0.1/update/, the device is adding the file name update-ipxxx.htm automatically, deduced from the device short name (for example update-ip800.htm). Furthermore the placeholder #h and #m can be used in the URL-String:
- #h - will be replaced by the device short name (for example IP800).
- #m - will be replaced by the device mac-adress (for example 00-90-33-01-02-03).
These placeholders may be used e.g. to address a device-specific directory (http://192.168.1.2/update/#h/script.txt) or to generate HTTP-GET parameters (http://192.168.0.1/update/script.php?mac=#m).
If the directory of the file is password-protected, the access credentials must be specified in the chapter "Configuration/General/HTTP Client".
- Interval [min]: An interval (in minutes) at which the file is re-read and executed.
Detailed information on the update server and the update script is contained in Appendix E: "Configuration of the update server".
