MAC address
The MAC address of the device is used for identification. For all transactions between device and PBX the PBX must be able to identify the MAC address of the device so that the device can be matched to provisioning data.
The MAC address of a device can be found as follows:
• Retrieving from a client certificate sended by the device
• Reading with a bar code scanner enabled and connected to the computer (e.g. via a USB interface)
• Reading e.g. on the menu oft the phone or on a label
* Note: If the MAC address was determined via automatic provisioning or entered by yourselves, the device will be provided with provisioning data during its first boot process.
