Managing Phones with the Device Manager
AudioCodes' Device Manager manages Android-based Teams phones in a similar way to UC-
type phones. Teams phones' configuration parameters are in the same format as UC phones.
A .cfg configuration file is defined for each device. Device Manager version 7.8.2000 and later
(Pro and Express) supports Android-based Teams devices.
Zero Touch Provisioning is supported in a non-tenant aware manner; each local DHCP Option
160 must be configured with a fully-specified URL pointing to
dhcpoption160.cfg
as shown
here:
Table 6-1:
DHCP Option 160 URL
This URL is displayed in the Device Manager page under
Setup
>
DHCP options configuration
.
After devices are added to the Device Manager, they're allocated to tenants by selecting
Change Tenant
in the ‘Actions’ menu. Unless already used, it's recommended to leave the
default tenant as a ‘lobby’ for the new devices. The above URL can also be configured in
AudioCodes' Redirect Server. Android-based Teams devices currently support:
■
Provisioning of configuration
■
Provisioning of firmware
■
Switching to UC / Teams
■
Monitoring (based on periodic Keep-Alive messages sent from devices)
■
Resetting the device
The Device Manager's ‘internal’ functions (which don't involve devices) are:
■
Change tenant
■
Change template
■
Show info
■
Generate Configuration
■
Delete device status
■
Nickname
Actions that go beyond the devices’ periodic provisioning cycle will be supported in next
releases. The
Check Status
option is irrelevant for Android-based Teams devices therefore it's
omitted from the 'Actions' menu.
