[asterisk-users] OT - How to organize TFTP root directory ?

[Olivier]

Hi,

Most (if not all) IP phones support provisioning through DHCP/TFTP.
The trouble is some phones seem to require to store their config files in
TFTP root directory.
This makes this TFTP root directory a bit messy.

What are the best practices or tricks to manage this TFTP root directory ?

I was thinking of either :

1. building a dedicated source TFTP tree in which files are cleanly
organized (vendor/models:...) which would be synchronized (one way ? two
ways ?) with the "official" TFTP tree (that would be then, collapsed to a
single directory)

2. tune DHCP/TFTP server config so that each phone would retrieve its config
files from a vendor-dedicated subdirectory.

I don't have a clue about solution 2. Is it even possible ?
Solution doesn't look very encouraging as it might be difficult to keep
trees in sync.

Suggestions ?

Regards
