Release Notes for Avaya Scopia® XT Series
What’s New | 7
What’s New
This section describes some enhancements and fixings available in this software version 9.0.0.23
since previous Avaya XT Series GA version, v8.3.7.51.
Cloud Management and Auto Provisioning
When a new Avaya XT Series Endpoint is installed, a quick setup wizard is displayed to manually
configure some needed parameters (for instance GK address/E.164 or SIP Server address with
credentials), in addition to other user preferences like XT name and UX language.
With this release Avaya XT Series Endpoints can be auto-configured, up and running, with minimal
user intervention. The input of a numeric code at the first startup allows configuring XT automatically
with a pre-provisioned profile created by your XT Administrator using Avaya Equinox® Management
available as part of Equinox Solution 9.0.0.
When using an XT in a company where Avaya Equinox® Management is available, the
administrator can now enable the Auto-Provisioning feature in the Avaya Equinox® Management
Settings.
Auto-Provisioning an endpoint means to define a set of parameters for it in Avaya Equinox®
Management, even before it is connected to the network (at home or in the company premises), and
have the endpoint get these parameters automatically from Avaya Equinox® Management at first
startup. Once provisioned, the endpoint will be managed by the Avaya Equinox® Management,
which can change XT configurations and preferences at any time.

In this way the administrator can easily configure a provisioning profile for any XT endpoint even
before it is installed. No manual configuration is required on XT for common parameters.
Important
Feature will be supported for XTs installed in any location, provided that Avaya
Equinox® Management version is available for association with the XT, that XT is
connected to the Internet and that your DHCP server is able to assign a valid DNS
address to XT.
Please refer to Avaya Equinox® Management release for further details about the
feature.
Important
XT Auto-Provisioning Service may be interrupted, including for maintenance, repairs,
upgrades, or equipment or network failures. We may discontinue certain features and
