ok atlast i managed to bootstrap the device and retrieve the provisioning
file.

it should be placed under FTP://<device-macaddr>.xml. The reason why
provisioning.xml is not accepted here is the bootstrap app is for
managing the enterprise voip infrastructure where the admin can modify the
settings for the device and place it in the FTP server from which
the device will pickup and autoupdate the config. So here every config
becomes device instance specific, which can be addressed by means of
macaddr.xml

u need to add these reg entries ServerName,UserName,Password @
HKLM\System\VoIP\Bootstrap
though i tried to use the registery setting
HKLM\System\VoIP\Bootstrap\ServerInfoLocation = 1 it didnt work so had to
hard code choice.

and a small tweak to the code @bootstrapsample/engine.cpp::751; modify
code as
// check where we should get bootstrap server info from
BOOTSTRAP_QUERY_CHOICES QueryChoice = BOOTSTRAP_GET_FROM_DHCP;
/*RegistryGetDWORD(
SN_VOIP_BOOTSTRAPSERVER_ROOT,
SN_VOIP_BOOTSTRAPSERVER_PATH,
SN_VOIP_BOOTSTRAPSERVER_INFOLOCATION,
(DWORD*)&QueryChoice
); */
// patch to always get bootstrap info from registry
QueryChoice = BOOTSTRAP_GET_FROM_REGISTRY;

now the device is able to retrieve the provision <macaddr.xml> from the
FTP server.
But still the device didnt apply the settings as i think i had made
something wrong in the xml file; and i was in no mood to probe further as
i got it working when i
manually setup the configs.

Re shankars issue of hotkey registration i didnt probe more as that was
not the prime focus; so i just commented the code
@bootstrapsample/ui.cpp::352
/*HRESULT hr = PHRegisterHotKeys(
L"Bootstrap",
m_hwnd
);
if (FAILED(hr))
{
ASSERT(FALSE);
LOG_MESSAGE(_RETAIL, ZONE_BOOTSTRAP_ERROR, (L"Failed to
registering the hotkey\n"));
return FALSE;
}*/

PS: Shankar, incase u still cant get the provisioning going or not
interested to run a FTP server for testing stuff in emulator; but u still
want the persistancy of settings,
just hardcode the line settings in fp_voip.reg which can be choosen by the
device. not sure, may be it will require a small tweak.

Hope this helps for you.

Thanks for all this useful information Guna. I'll work on it and get
back to you soon.

Hi Guna,

I tried out what you said and it works. I did the tweaks in the code
as you suggested and now the bootstrap application gets the server
setting registry, gets the xml file from the ftp server and able to
provision the application. The only thing I was not able to follow was
how the BOOTSTRAP_GET_FROM_DHCP and ServerInfoLocation works and why
it did not work for you.

But still I would like to have the option to be able to manually
provision (instead of FTP) by placing the xml file in a particular
location in the device and reboot, so that it picks up the new
settings. If there is anyway to do that, it would be helpful. For now,
I'll stick with the FTP provisioning.

Anyway, thanks for all the help. I really appreciate it.

Thanks,
Jothishankar
