Device List

In ipbx devices control how phones are provisioned. Phones can be connected to ipbx with or without a device definition. Devices need to have a MAC address associated and are usually created automatically when creating a new user. Devices are always based on a Channel Template which instructs ipbx how to create any provisioning files.

Some devices will feature centralized boot control and other management features. By selecting the symbol you can change the MAC address of the device transparently. This will automatically update the configuration file for the edited device. If you enter an existing MAC address ipbx will ask you whether you want to swap the two devices. This is particularly useful if you want to exchange two phones between users. Be careful when deleting devices as this might cause your phone(s) to become unreachable. To re-create the device go to Users and select your device template and re-enter the MAC address.

The following device brands are supported:

• Aastra

support for XML push

support for boot

• Polycom

support for boot

• Cisco

support for boot

• Linksys

support for boot

• Grandstream (limited)
• Generic Device Support

Device Templates are automatically created by adding a SIP/IAX Channel Template. Your device type needs to be setup for auto-provisioning See Device Setup
