As stated in the FAQ „How can I update a
snom phone?”, it is possible to con gure your
snom phone with con g les, which consist of
the following settings.
Phone settings
Settings are non-volatile name/value
pairs that are stored in the ash of the
phone. They include registration information,
dialled numbers, network settings and
other information that should be available
after rebooting. Settings can be made read
only on a per setting basis. This is useful in
environments where an operator sets up the
phones and wants to avoid users changing
settings that affect the stability of the phone.
In this way, expensive trouble ticket searching
can be reduced and the total cost of ownership
of the phone be minimized.
Settings Files
Setting les are ASCII-based les
containing lines (terminated with newline or
carriage return/newline pairs). Comments
start with a # or a < character. The < and >
characters allow easy integration of html tags.
Names may consist of the characters a-z, A-Z,
0-9 and _.
Appending a name with an “!” character
means that this setting becomes writable by
the user. Appending the name with an “&”
states that the setting is read only (this is the
default). If a setting is marked writable, the
value in the settings le is only written to the
phone if that setting has not yet been set up at
the phone. In order to overwrite such settings,
do not append the setting name with “!”.
A sample le looks like this:
<html>
<pre>
#This is a settings le
#
phone_name: testphone
dns_domain: intern.snom.de
dns_server1!: 192.168.0.9
</pre>
<html>
Downloading procedure
Settings are downloaded from web
servers. HTTP is a very powerful way to get
con guration information from anywhere in
the world. The location of a le is described as
a URL, i.e. it begins with http://.
This is how the Settings are set up:
1.
The settings that were stored in the
ash memory are read.
2.
Network and DNS is set up. This allows
the phone to get settings from internet
URLs.
3.
It then checks the setting "setting_
server” and loads the settings stored in
the URL (e.g. http://www.snomag.de/
snom200/snom200.htm) provided. For
a small description of the le format,
see below. The setting_server URL
can also consist of a {mac} statement
like http://www.snomag.de/snom200/
snom200.php?mac={mac}. The MAC
address is a unique identi cation ID of
Ethernet devices. snom devices have
the form 000413xxxxxx, where xxxxxx
is a hexadecimal number identifying
the snom device. The MAC address is
automatically replaced from the phone
with its own mac address before using
the URL. So phone speci c settings can
be provided for each phone via this
mechanism. The “setting_server” setting
can be set manually via webinterface or
automatically via DHCP (options 66 and
67) and through snom4S SIP proxy.
4.
The de facto settings are added. These
settings may differ from what has been
set up because DHCP may have changed
them. The settings include:
•
the IP address of the device,
•
the net mask,
•
the IP gateway,
•
the hostname,
•
the DNS domain, rst and second
DNS server,
•
the UTC offset in seconds,
•
the time server,

•
DHCP on or off
Each setting is described by its ‚Name:
‘ which should be added to the con g le
followed by a colon and its speci c value.
Name is followed by ‚Valid values:‘ where
the valid values are described. Each possible
value is bracketed in <>.The braces must be
left out if you are using the values stored in
a con g le. ‚Default:‘ shows the value which
is set by default after you have removed all
of the setting with a manual update or a
reset values! Lastly, ‚Description’ gives brief
details of each setting. See also the snom4S
SIP proxy manual for PNP con guration via
the proxy. And see the FAQ “How to update a
snom phone” for further details regarding the
update process.

the phone.

discovery of Gatekeeper) or <gatekeeper>
for explicitly using the gatekeeper mode,
<gateway> for gateway mode and
<none> for autonomous operation.
h323_gateway
Valid values: e.g. <192.168.0.9>,
<gtk.company.de>
Default: blank
Description: IP address of the gatekeeper
or the gateway, depending on gkgw_
mode (see above). This eld will be
automatically set to the discovered
gatekeeper‘s IP Address if <auto> mode
is selected in “gkgw_mode”.
h323_ttl
Valid values: e.g. <600>
Default: 600
Description: Time-to-live for Gatekeeper
registration. Very low values result in
more frequent refreshes of registration
but also cause additional network traf c.
Very high values result in large intervals
of disconnection from the Gatekeeper
before getting back online if the
gatekeeper reboots without sending any
un-registration request to the phone.
early_start
Valid values: <true>, <false>
Default: true
Description: The early start option allows
the H.245 channel to be set up earlier,
and hence speeds up the call setup.
When early start is turned on, the H.245
channel address is also supplied in the
Setup message. This speeds up the call

snom phones con guration
9
[ F REQUENTLY A S K E D Q U E S T I O N ]
because the H.245 channel negotiations
can proceed in parallel to H.225.
fast_start
Valid values: <true>, <false>
Default: false
Description: Fast start sends encoded
OpenLogicalChannel messages within the
Setup messages and hence eliminates
the need for a separate H.245 channel
for Codec capability negotiation. This
will only work if the other party is also
supporting fast start. This feature in H.323
is optional, meaning it can be ignored by
an endpoint not supporting this feature,
hence making the snom phone revert to
the normal H.245 signalling on a separate
channel. Note that if Fast Start is being
used, Out of band DTMF might not work
because the DTMF info is relayed on the
H.245 channel.
h323_h245_tunneling
Valid values: <true>, <false>
Default: false
Description: H.245 Tunnelling option
sends tunnelled H.245 messages within
an H.225 pdu. This also accelerates
connection setup if both parties are
supporting this feature.
trace
Valid values: <true>, <false>
Default: true
Description: Enable tracing output of the
current protocol stack.
h323_h450
Valid values: <true>, <false>
Default: false
Description: If ag is set to <true>,
H.450 supplementary services are used,
otherwise (<false>) it is facility-based.
Gateway pre xes (H.323 only)
external_line_pre x
Valid values: e.g. <0>, <111>
Default: blank
Description: Pre x used for reaching
outside numbers via an H323 gateway.
This pre x will be replaced by the
gateway_pre x in a dialled number for
calling outside numbers (see gateway_
pre x).
gateway_pre x
Valid values: e.g. <*5>
Default: blank
Description: Pre x with which an ISDN
gateway is registered at the gatekeeper.
The phone will replace this pre x with the
external_line_pre x in a dialled number if
it is starting with the external_line_pre x
(see external_line_pre x).
Hence the user doesn’t have to dial
numbers like 5*1234567 but can instead
dial 01234567 with the same effect.
PBX key codes (H.323 only)
key_seq_hold_on
Valid values: For example <*1>
Default: blank
Description: Key code that is sent by the
phone to the PBX if it is set and the “R”
