11.4 Provisioning and configuration
Provisioning is the process for uploading the necessary configuration and account data to the VoIP phones (here
the DECT bases). This is done by means of profiles. A profile is a configuration file that contains VoIP phone-spe-
cific settings, VoIP provider data as well as user-specific content. It has to be available on an HTTP provisioning
server which is accessible in the public (Internet) or local network.
Auto-configuration is defined as the mode of operation by which the telephone system connects automatically to
a server and downloads both provider-specific parameters (such as the URL of the SIP server) and user-specific
parameters (such as the user name and password) and stores them in its non-volatile memory. Auto-configuration
is not necessarily limited to the parameters required for doing VoIP telephony. Auto-configuration can also be used
to configure other parameters, e.g. settings for online service, if the VoIP phones support these features. However,
for technical reasons auto-provisioning is not possible for all configuration parameters of the phone.
