Provisioning Info Block - Avaya 1110 Fundamentals

For more information about these parameters, see
page 466.
Caution:
Provisioning the network port speed or network port duplex mode incorrectly can cause loss
of network connectivity. If this occurs, you can only restore network connectivity by manually
provisioning the IP Deskphone.
Caution:
Disabling DHCP incorrectly can cause loss of network connectivity. If this occurs, you can
only restore network connectivity by manually provisioning the IP Deskphone.

Provisioning Info Block

You can obtain configuration parameters in the IP Deskphone that are defined as AUTO from
the Auto Provisioning page from an 802.1ab switch (LLDP), DHCP, TFTP, UNIStim, or
HTTP.
You can obtain the configuration options in the following priority, from highest to lowest:
• Manual provisioning
• Automatic provisioning using 802.1ab switch (LLDP)
• Automatic provisioning using TFTP
- Current device-specific Provisioning Info Block carried by the provisioning server
- Current zone-specific Provisioning Info Block sent by the provisioning server
- Current type-specific Provisioning Info Block sent by the provisioning server
- Current system-specific Provisioning Info Block sent by the provisioning server
• Automatic provisioning using DHCP
- Current system-specific Provisioning Info Block carried by Nortel-i2004-B DHCP
options
- Current existing Nortel DHCP options (existing Nortel-i2004-A and VLAN-A options)
• Automatic provisioning using HTTP
• LPR (Last auto received value)
• Factory default
For more information configuration options priorities, see
control on page 486.
The TFTP provisioning server, the DHCP server, or the HTTP server can provide the automatic
Provisioning Info Block. The servers share the same syntax defining the Provisioning Info
Block. The TFTP provisioning server provides the Provisioning Info Block in a set of .PRV files,
where the DHCP Server provides the Provisioning Info Block with a new Vendor Specific String
Nortel-i2004-B.
