• Hyper Text Transfer Protocol – Secure (HTTPS)
• File Transfer Protocol – Secure (FTPS)
Note:
There are two types of FTP methods—active and passive. The devices are not compatible

You can specify the transport protocol in the provisioning server address, for example, http://xxxxxxx. If not
specified, the TFTP protocol is used.
Supported Provisioning Server Discovery Methods
After the device has established network settings, it must discover a provisioning server to obtain software
updates and configuration settings.
The device supports the following methods to discover the provisioning server address:
•
DHCP
: DHCP option can be used to provide the address or URL of the provisioning server to the
devices. When the device requests an IP address using the DHCP protocol, the resulting response may
contain option 66 (for IPv4) or the custom option (if configured) that contains the provisioning server
address.
•
Static
: You can manually configure the server address via phone user interface or web user interface.
