Hi
There are some questions that are bothering me and I couldn't find an answer in any manual of FAQ topic.
1. So 000000000000.cfg file contains entries like below:
<APPLICATION_VVX300 APP_FILE_PATH_VVX300="sip_590.ld" CONFIG_FILES_VVX300="" />
<APPLICATION_VVX310 APP_FILE_PATH_VVX310="sip_590.ld" CONFIG_FILES_VVX310="" />
<APPLICATION_VVX400 APP_FILE_PATH_VVX400="sip_590.ld" CONFIG_FILES_VVX400="" />
What does "sip_590.ld" stand for?? Values are also different for SoundPoint and SoundStation devices.
2. I'm wondering - why there are no such entries like above for Trio family?? What they should look like?
2.1. With trial and error I've managed to figure it out partially for Trio8800, but only for CONFIG_FILES part, not for APP_FILE_PATH. It looks like this:
<APPLICATION_Trio8800 APP_FILE_PATH_Trio8800="" CONFIG_FILES_Trio8800="Trio8800-cnfg.cfg" />
3. As a bonus question.
Trio firmware file does contain "VVXLocalization". I've been observing how Trio behaves during provisioning and it does look for that folder even before asking for 000000000000.cfg file. But it happens only in case when default GUI language has been changed.
Now, the problem is that those localization files may be different between VVX and Trio products family.
Is there any way to separate them, except for maybe keeping Trio and VVX firmware in different folders? Or is it worth doing at all? Maybe it's best to just keep it in root folder and only from the latest firmware (be it either Trio of VVX)?
Regards
Lukasz

Thanks for replying.
First things first - from my opened posts I've marked only one, as I don't consider others to be answered and solved.
As for the later part. From all those links that you posted I haven't seen only one. It's a surprise, but that one seems to have explanation to question #1. So thank you for that link.
I find it kind of strange, to place that info in FAQ, which topic doesn't seem relevant. It'd be rather looking somewhere describing 000000000000.cfg file. But maybe it's only me and I'm the strange one here
The sip.ld that comes with a SIP 3.1.8 download for example has already been renamed into sip_318.ld in order to separate the different SIP / UCS Software Versions.
Anyhow, it seems that "sip_318.ld" is simply a version of firmware, that device should look for. I've got to test it out if and how it works.
Right, so it seems that the same FAQ also answers question #2.
There is table named:
Valid current Phone Model Names
OK, that's question #1 and #2. It seems that still #3 is unanswered.
Cheers

Thanks for your reply. I've marked one of my posts as answered, as for other ones - there is either no reply or no satisfying answer.
Now to the main part. I've seen most of those FAQ posts, except for two it seems. And those two seem to have some answers.
One interesting thing is that it has some information, that should be in FAQs describing 000000000000.cfg file and it's "internals", not in one which has totally unrelated subject. But maybe I'm the strange one here
The sip.ld that comes with a SIP 3.1.8 download for example has already been renamed into sip_318.ld in order to separate the different SIP / UCS Software Versions.
So for question #1 - it looks like those preconfigured firmware names relate to firmware version. For example - UC firmware version 6.3.0, should have name "sip_630.ld", right?
After putting firmware name like above in 000000000000.cfg file, phone is searching for that exact name. So correct me if I'm wrong, but the only real usage is when you download combined file and rename "sip.ld" to contain FW version number for easier FW maintenance?
Another FAQ also kind of answers question #2.
I'm referring to table named Valid current Phone Model Names, which contains Trio name that can be used in 000000000000.cfg file. Too bad, that default version provided with firmware does not have it. Trio seems like unwanted and forgotten child when it comes to provisioning. Also, it should be updated, since there is no Trio8300 and C60.
All right, so that's questions #1 and #2. Question #3 seem to be unanswered. VVXLocalization is not mentioned in any of those topics.

Hi Steffen
I totally understand that you are doing this voluntarily. Thank you very much for your work, it's really appreciated. It's great, that you also updated tables in FAQ. Kudos for that
Just one more question - could you elaborate on you answer to question #3:
If there are both VVX and Trio in the same network, then the same DHCP options would be used, right? So just trying to figure out what you meant by above.. Did you by any chance mean using DHCP option 60 for different phone models?
https://knowledgebase-iframe.polycom.com/kb/viewContent.do?externalId=28715
It seems that using this option it would be possible to tell different devices what server address AND folder each of them should use.
Hello @LKVer ,
using a homemade provisioning solution like an FTP or HTTP server always will have certain restrictions.
Yes the DHCP Vendor Option 60 can be used for something like this.
Using a Poly solution like RealPresence ResourceManager, PDMS-E or Lens does not have these limitations as it can easily deal with different models.
