This file is used by the BootROM and the application for a list of other files that are needed for the operation of the phone.
  • Page 25: Configuration

    Overview Configuration The SoundPoint IP / SoundStation IP / VVX phones can be configured automatically through files stored on a central provisioning server, manually through the phone’s local UI or web interface, or by using a combination of the automatic and manual methods. The recommended method for configuring phones is automatically through a central provisioning server, but if one is not available, the manual method will allow changes to most of the key settings.
  • Page 26 IP address of an application server. All phones in an installation usually share this category of files. Polycom recommends that you create another file with your organization’s modifications. If you must change any Polycom templates, back them up first.
  • Page 27 Overview Parameters can be stored in the files in any order and can be placed in any number of files. The default is to have 2 files, one for per-phone setting and one for system settings. The per-phone file is typically loaded first, and could contain system level parameters, letting you override that parameter for a given user.

Polycom recommends that you use RFC-compliant servers. 2. Create an account and home directory. If the provisioning protocol requires an account name and password, the server Note account name and password must match those configured in the phones.
  • Page 52 Provisioning Server Security Policy You must decide on a provisioning server security policy. Polycom recommends allowing file uploads to the provisioning server where the security environment permits. This allows event log files to be uploaded and changes made by the phone user to the configuration (through the web server and local user interface) and changes made to the directory to be backed up.

  • Page 56 Administrator’s Guide for the SoundPoint IP / SoundStation IP / VVX Family Provisioning SoundStation IP 7000 Phones Using C-Link Normally the SoundStation IP 7000 conference phone is provisioned over the Ethernet by the provisioning server. However, when two SoundStation IP 7000 phones are daisy-chained together, the one that is not directly connected to the Ethernet can still be provisioned (known as the secondary).
  • Page 57: Upgrading Sip Application

    If the secondary’s static provisioning server does not exists, use the primary’s provisioning server (ignoring the source). For more information on daisy-chaining and setting up the SoundStation IP 7000 conference phone, refer to the Setup Guide for the Polycom SoundStation IP 7000 Phone, which is available at http://www.polycom.com/voicedocumentation/.
