10.1 Overview

Configuration file is a binary file composed from a collection of parameters. Not all offsets in a configuration file are configurable by the user. The parameters that may be configured by the user are listed in CC3xxx_cfg_parameters.xml file. Uniflash utility then uses this XML file and places the content in the appropriate file system templates.

All parameters are exposed to the user via GUI interface and are further divided into logical groups. Consequently, the user is guided on what parameters need to be configured for each use case. Additionally, Uniflash implement internal sanity checks on different levels to make sure these parameters are valid and also checking conditional dependencies between parameters. For example, IP addresses and subnet masks are analyzed for validity.
