HTTP Encoding Files
By default files on the memory card are accessed and downloaded by phones using TFTP. For IP Office 4.2+ they can
also be accessed by HTTP but only if the file is pre-encoded with HTTP file headers.
· Full HTTP servers apply HTTP headers to files at run time when the file is requested by a client. This addition
of HTTP header is processor intensive and would interfere with normal IP Office operation. Pre-encoding the
files allows them to be downloaded using HTTP without affecting IP Office operation.
1. Within IP Office Manager, select Tools | HTTP Encode.
2. Navigate to the file that needs to be encoded. Select the file and click Open.
3. A progress message will be displayed. Click OK.
4. The encoded file has .http added to its file type suffix. This .http file should be loaded onto the memory card
using TFTP or file management.
