Enable a Provisioning Service

▪ Register with a Provisioning Service
▪ Disable a Provisioning Service
You can use a provisioning service, such as Polycom RealPresence Resource Manager, to perform the
following actions with your system:
▪ Automatically provision settings, including Room Name, Device Name, and whether a security code
is required for connecting to the system.
▪ Automatically update software
▪ Allow your systems to register with the Polycom Cloud Service.
▪ Monitor health and status
Remember the following when you register your system to a provisioning service:
▪ Provisioned settings are read-only in the system web interface. Settings that are dependent on
provisioned values are read-only or unavailable.
▪ The system automatically checks for and runs software updates every time it restarts and at an
interval set by the service.
▪ The provisioning service can determine whether the system can register with and receive software
updates from the Polycom Cloud Service.
▪ With administrative permissions, you can change a system's settings after a bundle is applied (a
new bundle also overwrites manual settings).
▪ If a registered system fails to detect the service when it restarts or checks for updates, an alert
displays on System Status.
▪ If the system loses registration with the service, it continues to use the most recent configuration it
received.

Enable a Provisioning Service
You can register your system with a provisioning service in one of the following ways:
▪ Entering the required information in the General Settings of the system web interface.
▪ Running the setup wizard, which indicates if your system detects a provisioning service on the
network.
The setup wizard is available during initial setup, after a system reset when you delete system
settings, or when you factory reset the system.. For information about configuring the RealPresence
Resource Manager system so that Polycom systems detect and register with it, see the Polycom
RealPresence Resource Manager System Operations Guide.
