[Freeswitch-users] programming/config Polycom ip501

[Todd Bailey]

Hello,

DHCP is running on the network router.

The mac address is 00:04:F2:04:79:68 and
I've created these files
0004F2047968.cfg
0004F2047968-settings.cfg
004F2047968-directory.cfg
         
did I name these properly?
or do I want these files to use a naming convention like
00:04:F2:04:79:68.cfg?

I've never used tcpdump before so I'll have to read up on it's usage.

When I first installed the phone it connected to the boot server and
went through a update process, ie loading newer boot rom, formatting
file system etc. 

The phone does work, and I can dial or receive calls so connectivity
isn't a problem,  But I would like to add services, program soft keys
and be able to retrieve messages.
