VSP600/VSP601 Administrator and Provisioning Manual

Provisioning

Provisioning refers to the process of acquiring and applying new settings for the base
station using configuration files retrieved from a remote computer. After a base
station is deployed, subsequent provisioning can update the base station with new
settings; for example, if your service provider releases new features. See also
Provisioning Using Configuration Files on page 61.
With automatic provisioning, you enable the base station to get its settings
automatically—the process occurs in the background as part of routine system
operation.
With manual provisioning, you update the base station settings (configuration and/or
firmware) yourself via Provisioning > Import Configuration and/or Firmware
Upgrade > Manual Upgrade.
On the Provisioning page, you can enter settings that will enable the base station
to receive automatic configuration and firmware updates. The Provisioning page also
allows you to manually update base station configuration from a locally stored
configuration file using an Import function. You can also export the base station
configuration—either to back it up or to apply it to another base station—to a file on
your computer.
The provisioning process functions according to the Resynchronization settings and
Provisioning Server Settings. The base station checks for the provisioning URL
from the following sources in the order listed below:
1. PnP—Plug and Play Subscribe and Notify protocol
2. DHCP Options
3. Preconfigured URL
If one of these sources is disabled, not available, or has not been configured, the
base station proceeds to the next source until reaching the end of the list.
The provisioning settings are also available as parameters in the configuration file.
See "provisioning" Module: Provisioning Settings on page 85.
