Introduction

The Firmware Configuration File (<firmware-settings> tag) contains the "firmware image" URL or the firmware expansion module URL (since firmware version 8.9.3.68).

The Firmware Configuration File will only be requested if its URL had been specified by the configuration parameter firmware_status before. firmware_status should only be defined in the phone settings file (<phone-settings> tag).

NOTE: The firmware configuration file URL must not be specified in any container setting file.

Phone firmware Syntax

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
 <firmware-settings>
  <firmware perm="<permission flag>"><value></firmware>
 </firmware-settings>

firmware tag represents the only allowed configuration parameter.
perm string represents the <permission flag> --> valid values for <permission flag>
value string represents the phone firmware image file URL.

Expansion module firmware Syntax

Since version 8.9.3.68 you can update also the expansion module via provisioning defining the firmware_uxm parameter.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
 <firmware-settings>
  <firmware_uxm perm="<permission flag>"><value></firmware_uxm>
 </firmware-settings>

firmware_uxm tag represents the only allowed configuration parameter.
perm string represents the <permission flag> --> valid values for <permission flag>
value string represents the expansion module firmware image file URL.

Example

Example Name: "http://domain/snom/snomD315-firmware.xml" was retrieved from the firmware_status parameter value defined in "http://domain/snom/snomD315/general.xml"

The phone firmware takes the priority over the expansion module firmare: in case you define both "firmware" and "firmware_uxm" the phone will first upgrade the phone and then the expansion module

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
 <firmware-settings>
  <firmware perm="">http://domain/snom/firmware/snomD315.bin</firmware>
  <firmware_uxm perm="">http://domain/snom/firmware/snomUXM.bin</firmware_uxm>
 </firmware-settings>
