# Customizing the board configuration

When you install CG boards, you use the OAM API to specify configuration information for the system and for individual boards within the system. OAM includes the oamsys utility, which transfers software modules specified in configuration files to the boards in the system. Use oamsys to initialize the boards based on the information in a system configuration file and one or more board keyword files.

Sample configuration files are shipped with Fusion software. These include a sample system configuration file (fusion_oamsys.cfg), and several sample board keyword files described in Configuring CG boards. Use these configuration files with oamsys to set up the system. However, before running oamsys, you can customize these configuration files according to the characteristics of the system.

For more information about setting up Fusion systems, refer to Before using Fusion. For more information about OAM, refer to the Dialogic® NaturalAccess™ OAM System Developer’s Manual. Refer to the CG board manual for more information about CG board keyword files.
