Provisioning Tutorial Basic Resync 3 This resync URL method is designed for development and testing. When it receives this command, the IP Telephony Device at address 192.168.1.100 requests the file basic.txt from the TFTP server at IP address 192.168.1.200. It then parses the downloaded file and updates the GPP_A parameter with the value 12345678. STEP 10 Verify that the parameter was correctly updated by refreshing the admin/ advanced page on the PC web browser and selecting the Provisioning tab on that page. The GPP_A parameter should now contain the value 12345678. Logging with syslog The IP Telephony Device sends a syslog message to the designated syslog server when the device is about to resync to a provisioning server and after the resync has either completed or failed. This server is identified in the web server administration (admin/advanced, System tab, Syslog_Server parameter). It is instructive to configure the syslog server IP address into the device and observe the messages generated during each exercise. Exercise STEP 1 Install and activate a syslog server on the local PC. STEP 2 Program the PC IP address into the Syslog_Server parameter, and submit the change. Click the System tab and enter the value of your local syslog server into the Syslog_Server parameter. STEP 3 Repeat the TFTP Resync operation described in the previous exercise. The device generates two syslog messages during the resync. The first indicates that a request is in progress. The second marks success or failure of the resync. STEP 4 Verify that your syslog server received messages such as the following: SPA-962 00:0e:08:ab:cd:ef -- Requesting resync tftp://192.168.1.200/basic.txt SPA-962 00:0e:08:ab:cd:ef -- Successful resync tftp://192.168.1.200/basic.txt Cisco Small Business IP Telephony Devices Provisioning Guide 66

Basic Resync
Cisco Small Business IP Telephony Devices Provisioning Guide

3
This resync URL method is designed for development and testing. When it
receives this command, the IP Telephony Device at address 192.168.1.100
requests the file
basic.txt
from the TFTP server at IP address 192.168.1.200. It then
parses the downloaded file and updates the GPP_A parameter with the value
12345678.
STEP 10
Verify that the parameter was correctly updated by refreshing the admin/
advanced page on the PC web browser and selecting the Provisioning tab on that
page.
The GPP_A parameter should now contain the value 12345678.
Logging with syslog
The IP Telephony Device sends a syslog message to the designated syslog server
when the device is about to resync to a provisioning server and after the resync
has either completed or failed. This server is identified in the web server
administration (admin/advanced, System tab, Syslog_Server parameter). It is
instructive to configure the syslog server IP address into the device and observe
the messages generated during each exercise.
Exercise
STEP 1
Install and activate a syslog server on the local PC.
STEP 2
Program the PC IP address into the Syslog_Server parameter, and submit the
change.
Click the
System
tab and enter the value of your local syslog server into the
Syslog_Server parameter.
STEP 3
Repeat the TFTP Resync operation described in the previous exercise.
The device generates two syslog messages during the resync. The first indicates
that a request is in progress. The second marks success or failure of the resync.
STEP 4
Verify that your syslog server received messages such as the following:
SPA-962 00:0e:08:ab:cd:ef –- Requesting resync tftp://192.168.1.200/basic.txt
SPA-962 00:0e:08:ab:cd:ef –- Successful resync tftp://192.168.1.200/basic.txt
