Set Up Your Phones for Activation Code Onboarding

If your network is configured for Activation Code Onboarding, you can set up new phones to register
automatically in a secure way. You generate and provide each user with a unique 16-digit activation code.
The user enters the activation code, and the phone automatically registers. This feature keeps your network
secure because the phone can't register until the user enters a valid activation code.
Activation codes can be used only once, and have an expiry date. If a user enters an expired code, the phone
displays Invalid activation code on the screen. If this happens, provide the user with a new code.
This feature is available in firmware release 11-2-3MSR1, BroadWorks Application Server Release 22.0
(patch AP.as.22.0.1123.ap368163 and its dependencies). However, you can change phones with older firmware
to use this feature. To do this, use the following procedure.
Before you begin
Ensure that you allow the activation.webex.com service through your firewall to support onboarding via
activation code.
Access the phone web page.
