Teams Application
The documentation following describes functions related to the phone's Microsoft Teams
application.
Signing In
Using TeamsIPPhonePolicy, network administrators can create the following users
who can then sign in to the phone:
●
●
●
Before using the phone (after setting it up), you need to sign in for security purposes. You can
sign-in with user credentials locally on your IP phone, or remotely with your PC / smart phone.
'Modern Authentication' is also supported.
Before signing in, the network administrator must make sure the phone gets the local time,
using either:
■
NTP Time server '2.android.pool.ntp.org'
■
DHCP Option 42 (NTP)
If DHCP Option 42 (NTP) is opted for, the network administrator must specify the server
providing NTP for the network.
In most regions, Daylight Saving Time changes the regional time twice a year. DST Validation
allows maintaining accurate time. Two options for phones to get the correct time are:
■
[Recommended] I f the DHCP server offers Timezone Options (100/101), the phone will set
the obtained time zone and display the correct time on the screen; the time will be
calculated based on an embedded Time Zone database, factoring in DST.
■
If the DHCP server offers Time Offset Option only (2), the phone will assign the obtained
time offset to the first matched region in the list but there is a good chance it won't reflect
the actual geographical location, therefore the displayed time might be incorrect in some
cases. For example, if the given time offset is GMT-5 and the phone is located in Mexico,
the phone will get the time (and the DST setting) from central time and not from Mexico
because in GMT-5 there is also Central Daylight Time.
The network administrator must make sure the phone can access the following URLs (to check
connectivity with the internet):
UserSignin: All features are available, i.e., calls, meetings and voicemail
MeetingSignIn: Only meetings are available
Common Area Phone (CAP) users who can sign in to the device with a CAP
account (as a CAP user) using TeamsIPPhonePolicy as follows:
✔
CAP SignIn (SearchOnCommonAreaPhoneMode=Enabled): The user has
calling and searching capability
✔
CAP SignIn (SearchOnCommonAreaPhoneMode=Disabled): The user has
calling capability
