| 1. A method for initializing an Internet videophone terminal in an Internet videophone system including a DHCP (Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol) server, a TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) server, an SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol)
server and the Internet videophone terminal, comprising the steps of:
registering the Internet videophone terminal to the SNMP server;
storing an initial configuration file of ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) text format with initialization
items for the Internet videophone terminal in a database of the SNMP server;
by the Internet videophone terminal, sending a request for the initial configuration file to the SNMP server;
by the SNMP server, retrieving the initial configuration file for the Internet videophone terminal from the database and sending
the retrieved initial configuration file to the TFTP server;
by the TFTP server, sending the initial configuration file received from the SNMP server to the Internet videophone terminal;
and
by the Internet videophone terminal, analyzing the initialization items contained within the initial configuration file received
from the TFTP server,
wherein the initialization items of the initial configuration file are decided based on use environment information acquired
at the registration step, and the Internet videophone terminal is initialized according to the analyzed initialization items
when restarted.
