Scenarios; Dhcp Option 66/67 - VTech ET685 Administrator And Provisioning Manual

NOTE: VTech recommends that you only work with XML format when saving
configuration files.
You can now make copies of the settings file, and edit them as required for auto
provisioning.

Scenarios

Depending on the installation environment, the following scenarios can be applied to
provide the setting (provisioning) URL to the phones:
1. DHCP Option 66/67 - see
The DHCP Server in the LAN may send the provisioning URL via Option 66/67.
2. Plug & Play - see
Any SIP Server in the LAN may send the provisioning URL by replying to SIP SUB-
SCRIBE Broadcast messages.
3. Automatic Redirection Service - see page
VTech's public provisioning server will be contacted automatically and may redirect
MAC address based provisioning requests to any other server.
4. TR-069 Provisioning - see page
Either scenario 1/2/3 can be used to enable the phone for TR-69 Provisioning.

DHCP Option 66/67

This configuration method requires the following components:
DHCP Server

ONE DHCP Server per LAN supporting DHCP Option(s) 66 or/and 67.
See
Auto Provisioning Server

Configuration files

See
VTech VOIP Phone Configuration

The DHCP Server must be configured with additional DHCP Options containing the URL of
the Auto Provisioning Server to the VTech VoIP phones on boot-up. The phones will then
request their configuration parameters from the Auto Provisioning Server which will result
in a ready-to-use phone setup without manual configuration.
