Planning the Configuration Files
Each configurable option may be categorized as one of three types:
System (
Sys ), Group ( Grp ) or User ( Usr ). System level options should
be those that are stable across the entire system. DHCP vs. Static IP
addressing would be an example of a System option. Options that are
designated as Group type should be those that change by category of
user. PTT Allow/Disallow and PTT Channel are examples. A unique
extension number is assigned to each handset by the system
administrator and would be a User type. The remaining User types
should be reserved for options that are normally set by the end user.
For Standby menu options such as Ring Type and Noise Mode,
default values may be entered with the expectation that the user may
change them.
