Provisioning services, such as Poly Lens or Polycom RealPresence Resource Manager, enable you to
deploy enterprise-wide configurations to your systems.
You can use a provisioning service to perform the following actions with your system and some of its
paired devices:
▪ Automatically configure settings
▪ Automatically update software
Remember the following when you register your system to a provisioning service:
▪ Provisioned settings are read-only in the system web interface. Settings that are dependent on
provisioned values are read-only or unavailable.
▪ The system automatically checks for and runs software updates every time it restarts and at an
interval set by the service.
▪ If a registered system fails to detect the service when it restarts or checks for updates, an alert
displays on
System Status
.
▪ If the system loses registration with the service, it continues to use the most recent configuration it
received.
▪ The system looks for provisioning options during initial system setup in the following order: Zero
Touch Onboarding, Poly Lens, then DHCP. If the system doesn’t find provisioning information for an
option, it automatically goes to the next one.
Note:
To maintain call connection, you can't configure provisioning settings during a call.
