PBX not generating configuration files

[DBOD]

I am running version 11 SP1 but have had this issue for awhile. I have to jump through too many hoops to get the PBX to generate my phone configuration files after custom modifying the templates. The PBX will generate a phone configuration file if I create a new extension or if I modify a parameter of the extension. However, if I edit the template for a parameter that is not an option from within the management console the PBX does nothing. The template is modified but my <mac>.cfg file in the provisioning folder is not updated. The only way for me to get it updated is to then go to the management console and open the extension and then modify a parameter there and say ok or apply. And then of course I have to do it again to modify that parameter back. I doubt this is unique to my Aastra phones. Am I doing something wrong. Restarting all services or rebooting the PBX server has no effect on this either. Any help would be appreciated. This process should be a little more intuitive.

To make sure this works you can delete the mac.cfg file and reprovision the phone.

Thanks mixig. It works like a charm.

This is all well and good, except if I make a config change and wait for the phones to autoprovision at 2am when nobody is is in the building... it doesn't work. I have to touch every extension. There is a suggestion on the FB Idea site. Not that a ton of people go there and vote
