You can install Avaya J100 Series IP Phones in the following ways:
• Automatically, using the Device Enrollment Services. Device Enrollment Services redirects
the phone to the provisioning server and the phone initialization begins automatically.
• Manually, by performing the following configuration tasks:
- Configuring the provisioning server
- Supplying the provisioning server address to the phone by choosing one of the phone
configuration methods

Provisioning Server configuration

A file server is an HTTP or an HTTPS server that is required to download and save the software
distribution package and the settings file.
When the phone is connected to the Ethernet for the first time or during a restart, the phone
checks for software updates and settings files on the specified file servers.
You can provide the file server addresses to phones through one of the following methods:
• DHCP
• LLDP
• Device Enrollment Services (DES)
• The web interface of the phone

Automatic phone provisioning

Device Enrollment Services server
Device Enrollment Services is an Avaya cloud service used to automate the deployment of
phones, especially during initial deployment. Device Enrollment Services exposes interfaces to
allow different entities to interact with the service.
Installing the phone by using Device Enrollment Services eliminates the need for manual
configuration of a provisioning server. Device Enrollment Services is available at
des.avaya.com.
Device Enrollment Services phone interface
The phone which supports Device Enrollment Services comes from the factory with a unique
device certificate that is known to the Device Enrollment Services server. The phone's firmware
includes a list of trusted root certificates of well-known public certificate authorities. The phone is
programmed with the identity of the Device Enrollment Services services, des.avaya.com.
