4.0 InformaCast Configuration File Retrieval
4.1. DHCP should be enabled. After the device initializes, it will send a
broadcast to the DHCP server to ask for the location of its
InformaCastSpeaker.cfg configuration file.
4.2. SLP or TFTP?
•
SLP should be enabled on InformaCast version 5.0.4 or higher. SLP is an
InformaCast protocol introduced in InformaCast version 5.0.4. The device will
retrieve its configuration file from an InformaCast server folder specified by
SLP. SLP method is preferred.
•
TFTP servers may be used instead of SLP. In this alternate scenario, DHCP
option 150 is required to provide the device with the address of the TFTP
server. Otherwise, the device will be unable to retrieve its configuration file.
Note The CyberData VoIP Strobe and InformaCast server should be on
the same subnet during the device's initial configuration if it cannot
access the VLANs upon which the InformaCast Server and DHCP
servers are located. It may be necessary to manually configure
your switch port to allow access to the VLAN.
5.0 Singlewire-Enabled VoIP Strobe Identification
and Testing
5.1. Ensure the InformaCast Server has detected a new device.
5.2. Test the newly detected device.
5.3. Add the newly detected device to the InformaCast Server.
