Provisioning (Starter Pack)
Overview
Configuration
The VCS's provisioning server provides basic device provisioning for registered Movi users, without
the need for TMS.
The
Starter Pack
option key must be installed to use basic device provisioning. It cannot be used
in combination with Device Provisioning through the TMS Agent and TMS Provisioning Directory.
Note that the
Starter Pack
option key is designed for single box deployments and is only available
as a pre-configured factory setting.
Starter Pack
The Starter Pack is suitable for small enterprises. It provides basic VCS functionality and has
limited licenses.
The following features are included with the Starter Pack:
•
Expressway
•
FindMe
The following license restrictions apply:
•
50 registrations
•
5 calls (any combination of traversal and non-traversal calls)
Note that installing additional call license option keys will have no effect while the
Starter Pack
option key is present.
Device authentication
The provisioning server supports
device authentication
. Provisioned devices' credentials can be
authenticated against the VCS's local authentication database (or the LDAP directory if remote
authentication is selected) when they attempt a provisioning request and when they register with
the VCS.
Phone book support
Provisioned devices are served a phone book directory of user accounts.
The provisioning server is configured using the
Provisioning
page (
Applications > Provisioning
).
The server is automatically enabled when the
Starter Pack
option key is installed.
Device bandwidth limits
Enabling the
Provision bandwidth limits
option allows you to configure the maximum incoming and
outgoing bandwidth (in kbps) values to set on the provisioned devices.
You can monitor the provisioning server on the
Provisioning status
page.
Provisioning users
To provision individual users, you must set up user accounts.
When you configure a user account, a provisioned device URI is assigned to that user and enables
provisioning for that device by default. User accounts are also used to configure a user's FindMe
settings. See
Maintaining user accounts
for more information.
See the
TANDBERG Deployment Guide - VCS Expressway Starter Pack [34]
for full details
on setting up Starter Pack provisioning.
