Provisioning for IP Phones

Provisioning Files

Provisioning files contain configurations for phones. For Auerswald/
FONtevo IP phones, these provisioning files are *.xml files, built after a
defined scheme. They contain e.g. account, provider or function key infor-
mation in an *.xml file.
A provisioning file that was not generated in the PBX (e.g. via a backup), is
typically applicable for only one subscriber, as the file contains personal
data such as account information. Provisioning data is user-specific if they
contain at least username and password of the subscriber at the VoIP
account.
A provisioning file can also be generated from a standard provisioning file
by saving it under a different file name.
You will find more information about provisioning files on the Internet (see
www.auerswald.de/service under Developer).
Provisioning templates
Provisioning templates are a specific form of provisioning files. A provi-
sioning file can be saved and selected in the PBX. If an IP phone requests
a provisioning, the PBX replaces the user-specific data of the provisioning
file or rather the template with suitable data content for the current
subscriber. A provisioning template can be assigned to several subscribers.
Standard Provisioning Files
The standard provisioning file is a specific provisioning template type and
only contains the basic structure of a provisioning file. The file cannot be
deleted or exported, A standard provisioning file can be saved under a
different file name and afterwards be edited. Saved under a different file
name, it is a provisioning file.
