Automatic phone provisioning using Device Enrollment Services
During initial boot-up, the phone prompts users to select if they want to contact the Device
Enrollment Services server. The phone displays the
Do you want to activate Auto
Provisioning now
prompt.
The user has 60 seconds to select
Yes
or
No
options or the timeout will be activated.
The following options are available:
•
Yes
: This option indicates that the phone should use only Device Enrollment Services for
server discovery instead of a local network.
If the phone can contact Device Enrollment Services and is able to obtain the configuration
server URL, it will contact the configuration server to get the settings. If the phone fails to
contact the configuration server, it will prompt the user to enter the configuration server
information manually.
If the phone can contact Device Enrollment Services, but there is no configuration server
assigned to the phone on Device Enrollment Services, it will prompt the user to enter the
enrollment code.
When the user enters the enrollment code, the phone will contact Device Enrollment Services
again to obtain data on its configuration server and will contact the configuration server for
downloading the settings.
The user can cancel the operation of entering the enrollment code. In this case, he will be
prompted to enter the configuration server manually.
•
No
: This option indicates that the phone should not use Device Enrollment Services and
should discover the configuration server using the existing mechanism based on DHCP
SSON, LLDP, PnP or Administration menu. If the phone fails to discover the configuration
server using DHCP SSON, it will prompt the user to enter a configuration server manually.
•
Timeout
: After the interval of 60 seconds, if no option is selected, the phone will use the
existing mechanism based on DHCP SSON. If the phone fails to discover the configuration
server in this case, it will contact Device Enrollment Services to get the configuration server
URL.
