Backup/Restore
The 1600 Series IP Telephones support the HTTP client to back up and restore the
user-specific data indicated in
Table 16 . For backup, the telephone creates a file with all the
user-specific data if a backup file location is specified in system parameter BRURI. The file is
sent to the server by an HTTP PUT message, with appropriate success or failure confirmation.
For restore, the initiating process must supply only the backup file name. The file is requested
from the server by an HTTP GET message. If successful, the file is returned to the initiating
process, otherwise a failure message is returned.
Backup and restore operations construct the URI used in the HTTP message from the value of
the BRURI parameter and from the file name as follows:
●
If BRURI ends with / (a forward slash), the file name is appended.
●
Otherwise, a forward slash is appended to the BRURI value, then the file name is
appended to that.
Note:
Note:
A directory path and/or a port number can be included in BRURI as specified in
IETF RFCs 2396 and 3986.
HTTP authentication is supported for both backup and restore operations. The authentication
credentials and realm are stored in re-programmable, non-volatile memory, which is not
overwritten when new telephone software is downloaded. Both the authentication credentials
and realm have a default value of null, set at manufacture or at any other time user-specific data
is removed from the telephone.
The new value(s) replace the currently stored values when HTTP authentication for backup or
restore succeeds.
If HTTP authentication fails, the user is prompted to enter new credentials.
Note:
Note:
Users can request a backup or restore using the Advanced Options Backup/
Restore screen, as detailed in the user guide for their specific telephone model.
