rel: Relative mode, enables phones to check for software or

configuration upgrades after every X seconds. You can set the
value of X in parameter prov_polling_period.
abs: Absolute mode, enables phones to check for software or

configuration upgrades at an exact time, based on the 24-hour
clock. You can set the time in the parameter prov_polling_time.
random: Random mode, enables phones to check for software or

configuration upgrades randomly. The randomness depends on
the period set in prov_polling_period. If the period is less than one
day, phones will check for upgrades at any time of the period
randomly. If the period is greater than one day, for example 3 days,
phones will check for upgrades within 3 days randomly and
depend on the time period between the values in
prov_polling_time and prov_polling_time_rand_end randomly
also.
Random Case 1: prov_polling_period >= 1 day
prov_polling_enabled=on
prov_polling_mode=random
prov_polling_period=86400
prov_polling_time=18:00
prov_polling_time_rand_end=18:10
This case will have provisioning every day between 18:00-18:10, starting
from the next day after setting being set. A general rule: If
prov_polling_period >= 1 day, provisioning will occur randomly in specific
time interval inside this prov_polling_period.
Random Case 1: prov_polling_period <= 1 day
prov_polling_enabled=on
prov_polling_mode=random
prov_polling_period=3600
prov_polling_time=18:00
prov_polling_time_rand_end=18:10
In this case, the period is 3600s and will have provisioning checked at
intervals randomly selected between 0 and 3600 seconds, regardless of
the time start and time end. A general rule: if the period is less than one
day, phones will check for upgrades at any time of the prov_polling_period
randomly. Time start and end is not used in this case.
rel, abs, random

Check for software or configuration upgrades within this time interval (in
seconds).
