Yealink Provision File Format

General
1

I have a mixture of Yealink T46U, T44U and T31P phones which are configured manually and I’ve backed up the config file for them. The config file exported from yealink as .cfg has the parameters in the following format:

account.1.label = Name

I want to point all the phones to a auto-provision URL link just so that certain fixed parameters that are the same across all phones can be looked up and updated if necessary. This way if those parameters need changing then I can just change it in one place rather than doing the same thing x amount of times (specially since its all the same)

I have two questions.

  1. Does the auto-provision link need to return a file in the same format just like when you export a .cfg file from the Yealink device itself? so for example account.1.label = Name ? or does it need to be some sort of xml format?

  2. If I only put one or two parameters in the remote URL file, is it safe to assume that it will only remote provision and update the parameter(s) defined in the file and the rest of the already set parameters on the phone will remain the same intact?

Thanks

It is the same format. It would be silly to export a different format the phone doesn’t use.

And yes, only what is in the file would be changed.
