Provisioning - VTech ErisTerminal VSP600 Administrator And Provisioning Manual

Provisioning

Provisioning refers to the process of acquiring and applying new settings for the VSP600
using configuration files retrieved from a remote computer. After a VSP600 is deployed,
subsequent provisioning can update the VSP600 with new settings; for example, if your
service provider releases new features. See also

With automatic provisioning, you enable the VSP600 to get its settings automatically—the
process occurs in the background as part of routine system operation. Automatic
provisioning can apply to multiple ErisTerminal products simultaneously.
With manual provisioning on the WebUI, you update the VSP600 settings (configuration
and/or firmware) yourself via Provisioning > Import Configuration and/or Firmware
Upgrade > Manual Upgrade. Manual provisioning can only be performed on one
VSP600 at a time.
On the Provisioning page, you can enter settings that will enable the VSP600 to receive
automatic configuration and firmware updates. The Provisioning page also allows you to
manually update VSP600 configuration from a locally stored configuration file using an
Import function. You can also export the VSP600 configuration—either to back it up or
apply the configuration to another VSP600 in the future—to a file on your computer.
The provisioning process functions according to the Resynchronization settings and
Provisioning Server Settings. The VSP600 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—Any ErisTerminal device updated to the latest firmware release will
have the Redirection Server URL available as the default Provisioning Server URL (see
"provisioning.server_address" on page
Using the Redirection Service requires contacting the ErisTerminal support team
for an account.
If one of these sources is disabled, not available, or has not been configured, the VSP600
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
