Using provisioning
Provisioning involves automatically configuring one or more phones using a provisioning server URL. Here, the phone sets up a connection with a provisioning server, over which it receives the necessary configuration data. An update is then carried out.
Provisioning options
Provisioning with DHCP data
The phone obtains the provisioning server's URL from a DHCP server. Additional data for controlling provisioning can also be transferred along with the URL.
Provisioning using a redirect server
The phone obtains the provisioning server's URL from the redirect server.
Provisioning from PBX search
The phone is configured automatically via the PBX.
*Note: Activate Provisioning from PBX search, for example, if you want to add PBX functions to the function key assignments.
*You will find general details about provisioning and how to provision this function in Auerswald DokuWiki
Provisioning using the provisioning server URL
The URL is required if provisioning is not performed using DHCP data or a redirect server.
SIP provisioning
The phone is configured using incoming SIP messages.
Requirements for configuration
The PBX or phone must be connected to a broadband Internet connection.
