asterisk users - Dec 2005 - Aastra 9133i Configurations - are the file names to be lower case or upper case or does it matter?

According to the wiki page
http://www.voip-info.org/tiki-index.php?page=Aastra+480i+Configuration it
shows lowercase file name and then there is a comment at the bottom that it
needs to be capitalized.

I have tried it both ways with no luck.  Could someone comment on which way
the cfg files need to be in the /tftpboot directory?

Thanks in advance.

You need to look up the MAC address of your 9133i.  It's on the bar code 
on the bottom of the phone.

If your MAC address looked like this:

00 01 2d 09 58 c1

You would create a file (in uppercase except the .cfg which is in 
lowercase) called:

00012D0958C1.cfg

in the /tftpboot directory.

This will configure that SPECIFIC PHONE because it's tied to the MAC 
address.

The case sensitivity only applies to pre-1.3 firmware versions.  1.3 can 
handle upper and lowercase.

Thank you, Carlos.  With the suggestion of doing the ?vv, I was able to see
exactly what files (upper lower case) it was looking for, corrected that and
now the phone does the updates as it is supposed to.

 

Thanks very much.

    The letters in the MAC address have to be upper case, the extension
lowercase.  The best way to determine this is to put a -vv option on your
tftp server (verbose) so you can see in the log file which file your phone
is actually requesting.
