Yealink SIP-T2 Series Provisioning Manual page 31

Yealink IP phones allow you to upload contact data in batch via auto provisioning. You
can create multiple contacts using the provided local contact template file. The existing
local contacts on the phones will be overwritten by the downloaded local contacts.
Yealink IP phones support both *.xml and *.csv formats.
When editing the local contact template file, learn the following:
Add groups between <root_group> and </root_group>.

At most 5 groups (including the default groups) can be stored on T2xP IP phones.

Add local contacts between <root_contact> and </root_contact>.

At most 1000 local contacts can be added to IP phones.

When specifying a desired line for a contact, valid values are -1~6.

For SIP-T20P , valid values are 0~2. For SIP-T26P/T22P , valid values are 0~3. For
SIP-T28P , valid values are 0~6. 0 stands for Auto (the first registered line). 1~6 stand
for line1~line6.
When specifying a ring tone for a contact, valid values are Auto,

Resource:RingN.wav (system ring tone, integer N ranges from 1 to 5) and
Custom:Name.wav (custom ring tone).
When specifying a group for a contact, valid values are the group names (built-in

or custom groups).
To customize a local contact file:
1. Open the template file using an ASCII editor.
2. For each group that you wish to add, add the following string to the file. Each starts
on a separate line:
<group display_name="" ring=""/>
Where:
display_name="" specifies the name of the group.
ring="" specifies the ring tone for this group.
3. For each contact that you wish to add, add the following string to the file. Each
starts on a separate line:
<contact display_name="" office_number="" mobile_number="" other_number=""
line="" ring="" group_id_name=""/>
Where:
display_name="" specifies the name of the contact (This value cannot be blank or
duplicated).
