MISC_FILES param in master config file

[Anonymous]

Hi,

I cannot find any documentation regarding the MISC_FILES parameter in the master configuration file of Polycom phones.

What is the use for that parameter?

Regards,

Cristi

Note that setting

MISC_FILES="[PHONE_MAC_ADDRESS]"

causes a "config files not found" error.  Ask me how I know this.  8*|

[I know this is an old thread, but it's Google's first hit, and someone else might run into this issue and not want to use successive aproximation to determine which of the 000000000000.cfg entries can't have [PHONE_MAC_ADDRESS] in them.  I suspect it'll work if there was a file...]

Hello wpns,

welcome back to the Polycom Community.

I am unsure about your reply as nobody should ever call a configuration file the same name as the master configuration file.

In addition adding any name in a configuration setting of a file that does not exist should expect the same error. This is not only applicabel to the Misc section.
