Provisioning
Phones can be provisioned to download configuration profiles or updated firmware from a remote server when
they are connected to a network, when they are powered up, and at set intervals. Provisioning is typically part
of high-volume, Voice-over-IP (VoIP) deployments and is limited to service providers. Configuration profiles
or updated firmware are transferred to the device through use of TFTP, HTTP, or HTTPS.
