Auto provisioning allows you to connect your phones to ipbx without the need to manually configure anything directly on your phones.
Proper auto-provisioning usually requires special DHCP configuration and correct device templates.
ipbx uses almost exclusively the phone MAC address to identify a phone. This address is usually also part of the configuration file name.
Auto Provisioning Process
- User is created and along with it a file identified by the phone MAC address
- Phone is connected to the network and requests an IP address via DHCP
- DHCP server sends IP address and TFTP Boot Server information (usually ipbx IP address)
- Phone uses DHCP boot server to download configuration file via TFTP/FTP/HTTP
- Phone uses downloaded information to register with ipbx
